Warlord & CwG: Konflikt '47
« on: April 13, 2016, 01:11:32 PM »
Warlord officially announces the "WWWII version of Bolt Action", Konflikt ’47:
http://www.warlordgames.com/announcement-bolt-action-2nd-edition-konflikt-47/

Actually they say it's just "inspired by" BA. I leave it to people who play both to tell the actual differences. Anyway, should be available come summer. The setting doesn't sound too far removed from Paolo Parente's Dust 1947* but apparently there aren't any aliens involved in K47. Also to be seen what other different speculative changes there'll be.

The minis, at least the WWWII ones, will be produced by Clockwork Goblin as has been evident on their site for a while now:

I saw this announced on Amazon a few days ago. I'm not a Bolt Action player, but it looks like it's worth checking-out.

I've had this on pre-order for a while.  Not a BA player myself but as a SOTR player I'm intrigued to see how it will play, obviously I have an army ready and waiting but it'll be interesting to see how easy it will be to use my SOTR army for K47.  At the very least I'll be able to pick up some unit from K47 and use them in SOTR, in fact one of my favourite thing about SOTR is the customisation available and I hope the K47 has something similar.

I'm quite excited by this, I'm not a BA player but a few at my local Club are and some are interested to give this a bash

I think the Achtung Cthulhu miniatures could be used with this ruleset as well, especially the Black Sun Troopers.

With this, Achtung! Cthulhu Skirmish Game, the projected revival of Dust (as Paolo Parente's Dust 1947) and the potentially upcoming War of Wonders it looks like there's a bit of a WWWII craze going on.

A couple of days ago I received a bunch of Salute 2016 pictures of the new Konflikt '47 models including rocket troopers, tanks, creatures and mechs. Looking really nice and looking forward in seeing more of them. If of interest you can check the pictures here: http://wargameterrain.blogspot.be/2016/04/warlord-games-and-clockwork-goblin-new.html

Great link. Some nice looking stuff coming out. I'm a long SOTR player/fan but I think Westwind may have missed the boat(again!) on this one. :(
