Warlord Tease Bolt Action 2nd Edition Previews Soon
July 7, 2016 by brennon
Warlord Games have shown off the rough cover design for Bolt Action 2nd Edition which will be out later this year. With this they are also looking ahead to some previews from Alessio in coming weeks...
From Warlord Games...
"This second edition presents streamlined and refined rules, incorporating all the FAQs and errata compiled, with the help of the Bolt Action community, over the four years of extensive gameplay since Bolt Action was first launched. The new rulebook remains fully compatible with all of the existing range of army books, theatre books and models.
Written by renowned games designer Alessio Cavatore, Bolt Action provides all the rules needed to bring the battles of World War II to your tabletop be they small skirmishes or major actions. Using miniature model soldiers, tanks, vehicles and terrain you can fight battles in any of the theatres of war from the shattered towns of occupied France, the barren deserts of North Africa and the sweltering jungles of the Pacific.
Army options are almost limitless allowing you to build the kind of army that most appeals to your style of play, from heavily armoured tank forces to lightly armed, but highly skilled infantry. The choice is yours."
As well as that they have mentioned that they are aiming to have a new Starter Set out during the Autumn too and showed off some of their plastic sprues in development.
These bodies are actually Paratrooper ones so maybe that will give you an idea of the direction they are taking with the box. This glimpse a the box art should set minds racing too.
Will you be joining in with Bolt Action when 2nd Edition hits or maybe even returning with an existing army?
Let us know in the comments.

Been waiting ages for plastic US airborne! My dad was in the 101st. Ever since he passed away a few years ago I’ve been planning to do BA army of them.
Love this game, very much excited about this!
Plastic Airborne (and PARAs!) are a dream come true for me. Very much looking forward to it
😎
I’m hoping they make fighting in buildings… fun.
Really looking forward to this.
Will certainly be picking this up, need to get some more BA games in my gaming schedule, have been lacking of late!
I usually loath having to buy new books when my funds are low…. but for BA I so say: Roll on version 2! Great stuff.
certainly need to look at HE strikes and targeting on units in buildings.
looking great.
