Bolt Action: Western Desert Boot Camp Live Blog – Saturday

Welcome to Saturday of our Bolt Action Boot Camp. We're going to be taking those armies we built yesterday from Warlord Games and getting them stuck into some Desert Warfare.
Make sure to get involved in the comments and let us know what you'd like to see us talk about today!

We're going to be getting stuck into some mini-campaign awesomeness and seeing who comes out on top between the British and the Germans!

Gaming With The Boot Campers - In The Trenches
Boot Campers Martin and Bob are waging war across one of our fantastic desert trench tables.
We stopped by to hear how they have found playing Bolt Action on this particular battlefield.
Boot Camp Gong - Headhunter
Another of the hotly contest Boot Camp Gongs has been awarded. Boot Camper Michael’s sharpshooting soldiers took out the enemy’s HQ, scoring himself the Headhunter prize.
Operation Crusader Day One Campaign Wrap Up
We’re closing in on the end of the day and find out how things have been doing with Oriskany and his campaign.
Things have been going very well and…for once…actually accurate to History. With Warren in close proximity everything can sometimes be askew but in this case, it looks like the British are putting the German to the sword.
The End Of Day Two
That’s it for the second day of the Boot Camp. Everyone has been enjoying their games of Bolt Action and we have seen a lot of the spot prize Gongs given away already.
Be sure to come back tomorrow for the third day of our live coverage and tune in for the Live Let’s Play of Charlie vs John at 11:00 BST. Who shall be named king of the Boot Camp?
Just sitting down to paint some Imperial Scouts. Will tune in to the livecast later.
Ooooh I want some of those mini’s in the future, and for NOT Star Wars.
First.
< on a shopping run in hopes to find metrial for the project
unsucessfull… time to plunder the paper bin
Those Sikhs look good. Need more!
Day 2 looking even better than day one!
Hello friends 🙂
I love the western desert campaign. But that might be because i love the Matilda II. I want to get round to doing an armoured force of Matilda II’s for Bolt action at some point.
Wow the Boot Camp looks like so much fun! Bolt Action is a great game to go all-in for a weekend.
No its hard work, Justin and Warren stand over you with wips, shouting paint, play harder, and if you are not fast enough, they don’t wip you!?
need to start painting the mountain of stuff that’s on my desk…
sick stream
Excited to watch the games today while working on my project! Have fun everyone 🙂
I have a buddy there and cant wait to see him dominate some games!
Painting away on my Gen. Patton and watching the streams, not bad for a Saturday.
Soooo much to catch up on. I’m still working through day one.
here we go daY V2
Does anyone know about these kinds of events happening in the US?
Also the lady who came with her husband just to pitch in is a saint. Someone should pick her up some flowers.
I have not jumped in on any historical war games yet, but bolt action looks like it would fit my skirmish kick.
inspiring stuff
Another day, another ton of videos to watch. Whoo!
HEAVY SIGH. So you all got to spend the day fighting battles in the desert while I spent the day re-roofing my shed. I wonder which of us had the more fun :op
the bolt action project page is not working? anybody having the same issue?
Day 2 or is it Day 1 proper?
Either way looking forward to seeing how the games go. DAK all the way (only as there are no Italian armies)
Love the stories from Oriskany and that campaign map!
Thanks very much @digganob99!
day 2 lets get going
