Boots on the Ground – Beginner Bolt Action Tournament
Tally ho! Rally your chums and make ready for a spot of fun with games of Bolt Action. Bolt Action by Warlord Games is a World War II tabletop miniatures wargame where players command squads, tanks, and artillery in tactical battles.
It focuses on fast-paced play, historical flavour, and alternating activations using its signature order dice system.
This beginners’ tournament is jolly well designed for those new to the competitive lark, giving fresh recruits the chance to find their feet without the pressure of competition.
The affair shall comprise three spirited rounds of 1,000 points, all played in a single day, with a limit of 20 order dice. No painting shall be required so polish your tactics, not your miniatures. Pip pip!
