The box contains:
- 1x Panzerschreck Team
- 1x Sniper Team
- 1x Flamethrower Team
- 3x Order Dice
The models are made of resin, unpainted, and require assembly. Bases are included.
Background:
Infantry weapon teams are a vital component of any Bolt Action army, offering great tactical flexibility to your force. Sniper teams, anti-tank teams, and flamethrower teams are among the most common weapon types, presenting numerous challenges to the enemy.
The Panzerschreck was a German development of the American Bazooka, first deployed in North Africa, firing a large-calibre shaped-charge rocket. The backblast from the weapon was so severe that early teams wore protective cloaks and masks – the weapon later being fitted with a blast shield that gave it a distinctive appearance. The Panzerschreck, along with the disposable Panzerfaust, had replaced the Panzerbüchse 39 anti-tank rifle by 1944.
During the Battle of Stalingrad, Russian snipers took such a heavy toll on the beleaguered Wehrmacht that the Germans began to train and equip their own marksmen to act as snipers. Various rifles were used for sniping, including the standard KAR-98K and the semi-automatic Gewehr 43, all fitted with the high-quality ZF39 telescopic sight and fed with precision ammunition.
Flamethrowers were employed throughout the war, often used against buildings or fortifications. In the latter half of the war, the Germans produced a lighter, smaller version that contained enough fuel for a single shot – effectively a one-shot flamethrower – the Eintossflammenwerfer. However, it is not known whether this weapon was actually ever used.
