The Germans Roll Out The Panzer III For Bolt Action
October 25, 2013 by brennon
A big burly German tank is rolling its way onto the battlefield from Warlord Games for Bolt Action. See what you think of the mighty Panzer III as it more than likely levels that building you were just hiding in!
This was a pretty brutal tank and a mainstay of the German army throughout the war. It was a powerful ally to the German infantry as they pushed into Russia and had capabilities allowing it to take on other tanks and enemy infantry with ease.
I have been playing as Germans in a few games of Bolt Action recently and I would love to get myself a tank! I have been looking at a few of them and I do like the Stug but I don't like the fact the turret can't turn!
I'm looking to build around 750 and 1000 points of Germans and I have around 380 points of infantry at the moment thanks to Assault on Normandy so what tank do you guys suggest I get?
Do you like this Panzer?
Get a Maus!
Good question and with a small force limited to the one tank, I’d look to history for the answer. Words like workhorse and mainstay are what you want to read, both this model and the stug fit the bill. I’m putting two small forces together at the moment and I will going with the Stug as I think it will be easier to conceal.
Having said all that I do have a soft spot (if that’s the right term) for the Panther.
I’m partial to Panzer IVs and little things like Marders or Hetzers… Stugs are nice, but probably too common…
Nothing wrong with any of the above they are all good all rounders
Unless your @warzan of course then only the Jagdtiger would suffice but you may have to wait for Dust warfare for the Maus 🙂
I wish this was plastic instead of metal and resin. The T34/85 plastic kit is fantastic, as is the Sdkfz 251/1c.
