Nick in Launceston - Bolt Action with Dennis

A couple of weeks ago you had to fight to get a table -- this week the club was almost empty. But Nick and Dennis had a pre-planned Bolt Action game. Again using 15mm figures.

The result was a close game that Nick won 13 to 10 victory points.  The key differentiator was the Kubelwagen that Nick managed to sneak around and off the board for free victory points -- super cheesy!!!!  The army was surplus FOW figures individually based -- they worked well!
