Bolt Action Unboxing - German Grenadiers

Hey all, we're back and for another unboxing of Bolt Action from Warlord Games.
This time we're looking at the German Grenadiers, a fond build for Justin as he plays Germans in his squad.
How would you play the Grenadiers in your battle?

[@HeadHunterSix]

You _can_ make these as mid-war Grenadiers, you just don't use the StG 44's, G 43's and whatever other late war gear on the sprues. There are plenty of Kar-98s and MP40s for a mid-war platoon.

I dig the Sabaton hoodie.

[@MacAttack001]

Their plastics look so much better than their metal figs. Those decals are not the easiest to handle but they do look great on a mini. Good video!

[@Ynffy]

By 1944 most German helmets were made without decals. They were useful for enemy snipers and started to be covered up as early as the invasion of France. By 1941-42 new helmets sent to front line units were unmarked. But in second line, garrison or replacement units they could be seen through out the war.

very handy bit of info, i didnt know that, many thanks :)

[@Mailed-Knight]

@@MarkusJonJonsson German's considered sniper rifles and everything associated with them to be dishonourable.

[@CooperTreptow]

They used them dumb ass

[@HeadHunterSix]

The historical buffs may _try_ to give me a smack, but that would end very badly. :D

[@Ajax-wo3gt]

Nice kit! Warlord Games, please take all my money!!!

[@jackarmstrongiii3669]

Great review! You guys always make me laugh too!!

[@markcollins1390]

I'm getting those today

[@Geeko170]

Was that a HELLSING abridged reference?

[@HalidonDioramas]

Nice looking figures, what was wrong with the panzerfaust guy? I hoped Justin had him holding it backwards or something like that, perhaps the dude with the gun he can't fire cos of wrong ammo trained him!

[@PauloFrench]

+Halidon Panzerfaust guy not looking down the foldable sight, even though he looks ready to fire?

[@manicdemise]

you have to flip up the sight to fire but maybe he is close enough he does not require it?

[@HalidonDioramas]

Firing from the hip perhaps, could lead to an interesting outcome for him, pull the trigger and immediately followed by executing a 360 spin with a double pike :)

[@manicdemise]

+Halidon panzerfaust were a "recoilless" weapon, the blast blows out the back of the tube so the recoil is minimal. You would be fine as long as you didn't vent the blast against yourself or a buddy.

[@Flamethrower1942]

Historically veterans would not aim down the sights anyway usually fire the panzerfaust at point blank range at a tank so sights were not needed.

Alguien sabe donde puedo conseguir estas figuras y vehículos militares soy mexicano y he tratado de conseguir pero no se donde se los agradecería gracias

[@dravenbarlow7328]

do people really care about the historical aspect of this game i like to field what i like

[@OnTableTop]

Most definitely. We say, play what you like however some like to stay very accurate to their scenarios.

[@StalkeraBg]

OnTableTop How realistic is to field US and GB units side by side ? As in M5 with Firefly and Churchill ? Buying 4 triple kits by PSC in 1:72 and wondering what to field together.
