I was browsing YouTube and came across videos about Bolt Action v3, a World War II tabletop miniatures wargame, which I’ve seen before, and went into a deep dive on how to play, what you need, and what’s in the starter box.<\/p>\n

I eventually found myself searching for the starter set, along with US Marines and Imperial Japanese Army\u00a0 sets, since my interest lies more in the Pacific than the European front.<\/p>\n

As I was searching for those, other products appeared, specifically Firelock Games’ Blood & Plunder.<\/p>\n

Which made me stop looking for Bolt Action stuff, since I still hadn’t finished building\/painting my various factions for that game.<\/p>\n

I then remembered that if I really need to scratch that World War II itch, I do have Firelock Games’ War Stories, which is a WWII RPG, and the Pacific expansion that I pledged on Kickstarter will be coming out at the end of the year.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, I may create a small squad\/warband based in post D-Day France, or use the pregenerated characters and try playing solo at some point soon.<\/p>\n

I’ll probably spend some time with Blood & Plunder as well, as they’re starting their ‘Summer of Plunder 2025’ event this weekend.<\/p>\n
