Warlord Games Bolt Action: Blitzkrieg German Support Group

Introducing the Blitzkrieg German Infantry Set, a meticulous representation of the formidable German military during the Blitzkrieg era. At the helm of this ensemble, German officers stand as epitomes of capable and seasoned leadership within the Blitzkrieg HQ. Their junior counterparts, meticulously trained to inherit responsibilities beyond their ranks, embody the essence of initiative and strategic prowess.

At the core of this set lies an array of weaponry that instilled fear in Allied troops. Among them, the MG34 and the rapid-firing MG42, famously known as 'Hitler's Buzz Saw', due to its distinctive sound or 'Spandau', stand out. Unlike their counterparts, German machine guns served dual purposes – as squad weapons, supported by bipods, and as tripod-mounted support weapons. The stability provided by the tripod mount facilitated sustained and accurate fire through belt feeds, giving German infantry a lethal advantage on the battlefield.

Complementing these iconic machine guns are the 80mm Granatwerfer 34 medium mortars. Renowned for their precision and effectiveness, these mortars provided indispensable long-range, on-call fire support. Capable of reaching distances up to 2,400 meters and maintaining a rapid firing rate of 15-20 rounds per minute, they were formidable assets during the Blitzkrieg campaigns.

The Blitzkrieg German Infantry Set encompasses four infantry units, two artillery pieces or war machines, and six crew members, encapsulating the lethal efficiency and strategic ingenuity of the German military during one of the most pivotal periods in modern history.
