July 10, 2023 by brennon

Warlord Games have announced that they are going to be getting people stuck into a big Global Campaign this Summer bringing Bolt Action, Victory At Sea and Blood Red Skies together into a World War II clash across four theatres of war. Will you be taking part in Operation Critical Hit?

Operation Critical Hit can be played at your local gaming club or store but you can also submit results online if you're just going to be playing games with your friends. You'll be able to fight out battles in the Mediterranean (see above) but also in North-West Europe, the Pacific and Eastern Europe. Over the weeks, you'll fight for control over different areas of hex maps. You'll want to keep an eye on the way the battles are ebbing and flowing so that you can deploy your armies to the right place!

If you're interested in getting stuck in then you might need an army to get you started (or perhaps bolster an existing force). You can get your hands on a number of different sets and each of them will come with the special miniature for this campaign, the Redcap!

This fellow is going to be available from stores that participate in the Operation Critical Hit campaign but will also be found as a free item within select World War II Starter Sets all the way through the campaign until September. Here are just a few...

Band Of Brothers Starter Set + Campaign Miniature // Bolt Action

Combined Arms + Campaign Miniature // Bolt Action

You can find more of these sets HERE. All of these would be very handy for getting you started in a number of World War II games from Warlord Games and it's neat to see that they're not just focusing the attention on Europe OR the Pacific but both.

Could you be tempted to dive in and give Operation Critical Hit a go? Will you be starting a new army or will you be adding to an existing one?
