So over the last two weeks I’ve started my bolt action adventure, it’s quite addictive at the start! I have chose the Germans as my army. Got a pile of potential which will keep me busy for a while. #Boltaction #wargaming

@FieldcraftUK I have started to build my first army up for bolt action. Learning how to assemble, create, and then eventually paint. 🎨

[Aiden J @Aiddy101]

Torn between getting into Bolt Action or Flames of War… I genuinely like both. 🤓

Does anyone here collect and play both systems? If so, how do you find balancing them, and which would you recommend starting with? #BoltAction #FlamesOfWar #Wargaming

[Aiden J @Aiddy101]

@FieldcraftUK Thank you 🙏

[Aiden J @Aiddy101]

Today I built a 646-piece model of a US Army M7 Priest self-propelled gun. Next up is making my first Bolt Action purchase—miniatures, paints, and all the essentials. Any advice or recommendations for someone just getting started? #BoltAction #Wargaming #Miniatures #Modelling

@wargamesodyssey Apologies been busy, take some pics of what you have? 😀

[Aiden J @Aiddy101]

@TheBadUncle Thank you! Appreciate it. I’ll be giving this a read 👌

[Aiden J @Aiddy101]

@TheBadUncle Haha love it! I was thinking of trying to find someone who will sell me a painted figure and painted tank or vehicle, so I can have for reference while I am learning to paint. EBay should be a good start. If you know anyone let me know. 🤓

[Aiden J @Aiddy101]

@Lutra_Gaming Thank you for the recommendations and advice @Lutra_Gaming 😀 I am going to choose the Germans 🤓

[Aiden J @Aiddy101]

@TheBadUncle Thank you! It was off Amazon, not official Lego but it’s a smaller company. But was fantastic.

Thank you for the recommendation and advice. Going to get a starter box, and rule book. Have to go with the Germans 🤓

[Aiden J @Aiddy101]

@TheBadUncle These are fantastic! Do you have any advice on someone new to Bolt Action & painting?

[Aiden J @Aiddy101]

@JAD965 You are welcome Jeff, no problem. I am brand new to this, so looking to buy a painted miniature then I can try replicate and learn. I agree pal. Love seeing the posts and learning about it all. So cool. ���
