Hey Reader!
Kreighton gave an excellent overview of the new Third Edition supplement for the Armies of Italy, and today we’re continuing in our review of the book by looking at some of the highlights for new units in the book.
Italy is the first of the “minor nations” in Bolt Action that has received an army book.

En Taro Adun, Reader!
The Starcraft Tabletop Miniatures Game is available for preorder through April 15th (though they’ll still be in the online store following that time, albeit with some of the bundle options leaving circulation, so if you’re interested, check it out)! Last time we looked at the Zerg, and today we’re finishing our first look with their ancient foes: the Protoss, the firstborn of the gods, and a powerful psionic race.

We here at No Dice No Glory had the privilege of looking through an advance copy of the upcoming Armies of Italy book. The new Army Special Rules are a welcome addition and add unique flavor to Italian armies in Bolt Action. Veteran Italian players will be relieved to see familiar entries but with new twists that will provide an opportunity to reevaluate their army builds. Aaron will cover some exciting new units in another article so I will focus my attention on the new Special Army Rules and the book as a whole.

Hey Reader!
The Starcraft Tabletop Miniatures Game is now available for preorder! Last time we looked at the Terran Army, and today we’re shifting to the Zerg: the quintessential “Bug Race” commonly found in the sci-fi descendants of Robert Heinlein. And wow did Archon Studios go all-out on these!

In just a few weeks, on March 14–15, the Italian FOW National will take place in Milan. As always, Battlefront Miniatures has been extremely supportive and has already sent us the 2026 Objectives for all 50 expected players. As you can imagine, it’s Early War team-themed.

Flames of War has returned to the early period of the Second World War, with the publication of Blitzkrieg, covering the Invasion of France in May and June 1940. A new period is an exciting time for the game, with new nations, new miniatures, and new challenges.
My focus for Early-War in previous editions was the Mediterranean theatre, and I have never played anything from the campaign in France. To get back into playing Early-War while we wait for the North Africa book, I have picked up a copy of the new “Dunkirk” two-player starter set. Over the next few weeks, I’ll use it to assemble, paint, and start playing a new army. First, though, let’s have a look at what’s in the box.

The most recent addition to Warlord Games‘ Bolt Action Third Edition is enroute in the form of Armies of Imperial Japan. This latest edition comes in at just under 100 pages and is full to the brim with exciting and unique units, Osprey illustrations, and photographs of miniatures in action.

It’s time to invade France – or defend it! For those who are not Flames of War fans, this may sound strange, but when publisher Battlefront launched version 4 of the game around 2017, it started with Mid War, namely the North African campaign and the invasion of the Eastern Front. A few years later came the Late War, from D-Day to Berlin, but until now nothing had been released about the Early period of the war.

Nearly a decade since the release of Warlord Games’ first edition of Konflikt ’47, we are on the precipice of a new edition set to be released this September. Since it’s release in 2016, I must sheepishly admit that I have not taken a stab at this science-fiction, alternate history, cousin of Bolt Action.
I am hopeful that that will change soon as I have become more and more invested in the aesthetics and gaming of a competing science-fiction universe as well as having an advance copy of the new rulebook in front of me. As a veteran Bolt Action player, I have a familiarity with the foundational rules and an abundance of 28mm WWII miniatures and terrain. With this head start, it looks like a fairly simple leap to add Konflikt ’47 to my wargaming repertoire.
