Warlord Games United States Army weapons teams - Bolt Action - 28mm Miniature Wargaming Min by Warlord Games

Infantry weapons teams play a crucial role in enhancing the tactical versatility of any Bolt Action army. Among the most effective teams are the anti-tank and flamethrower units, which pose significant challenges for opponents. These teams provide firepower and strategic options, allowing players to adapt to various battlefield scenarios and counter enemy movements effectively. The American military doctrine emphasized the importance of sniping, with snipers tasked primarily with eliminating enemy officers to undermine troop morale. Equipped with M1903 Springfield rifles fitted with telescopic sights, these snipers also carried sidearms for self-defence. The interchangeable roles of the sniper and spotter ensured that both team members were equally trained, enhancing their effectiveness in the field. This adaptability made them a formidable presence on the battlefield. Support weapons, particularly mortars, were integral to infantry operations. Paratroopers and Rangers typically have one mortar per platoon, so these weapons were strategically positioned to cover critical approaches. The standard 60mm light mortar, while heavier than its counterparts used by other nations, delivered a powerful punch over greater distances. Flamethrowers also saw extensive use, especially in the Pacific theatre, where they were vital for clearing entrenched positions. Including Warlord Resin Plus figures, such as the 2-man sniper, 3-man light mortar, and 2-man flamethrower, adds authenticity and detail to any army, making them a valuable addition for enthusiasts.
