Wrap Up Warm & Ride German Tanks In Warlord’s Bolt Action
December 19, 2017 by brennon
Warlord Games have been tinkering around with some Tank Riders for Bolt Action and your World War II Games. Here we have a set of Stug Riders wrapped up in their winter garb.
The Stug were vulnerable to being blindsided as they did not have a turret so they were assigned a bodyguard which is where these soldiers came in.
While they weren't going to be able to deal with enemy armour they could clear out enemy positions and also take out tank hunter crews which were looking to take down these vehicles.
The set also looks awesome and would be great for adding a bit more character to your tanks. It wasn't just the Soviets who rode around on their tanks then it seems.
What do you make of the set?
"...they could clear out enemy positions and also take out tank hunter crews which were looking to take down these vehicles"
Those are very nice.
nice tank riders.
Sweet! They ad a lot of flavor to a Panzer or Stug. Definitely gonna get me a set for my kampfgruppe Peiper army!
They look great! Warlord always seem to come out with great stuff for Bolt Action.
It’s this time of year where my thoughts turn to a winter-themed army. It’d more likely be Soviets but these look superb. Hats off to Warlord once again.
I’ve had the pleasure of painting them and they are really nice 😎

Both the StuG and the tank riders are really good. They are fit for western and eastern front scenarios and armies alike, I think. For a Battle of the Bulge German winter army they´re almost a must. I wonder whether they fit on other tanks, too. I remember a picture of a King Tiger in the Ardennes. It would be nice to recreate this.
These are excellent, I’ve go to get a set for my winter germans.
