Forged in the crucible of the Eastern Front and hardened by the ruins of Stalingrad, the German Veteran Infantry Platoon represents the most experienced and lethal fighting men of the Wehrmacht. This 28mm (1/56 scale) hard plastic kit is widely considered the most versatile infantry set in the Warlord Games range. Specifically optimized for Bolt Action: Third Edition (V3), these miniatures allow you to field elite veteran squads equipped for the harshest close-quarters combat and specialized tactical roles.
The Ultimate Multi-Role Infantry Kit
In the 3rd Edition, German Veterans are prized for their high morale and access to specialized weaponry. This box allows you to build a complete reinforced platoon with a massive variety of equipment options. Whether you are assembling Sturmpioniere for an urban assault or Feldgendarmerie to bolster your rear-line security, these multi-pose figures provide the character and grit required for museum-quality dioramas and competitive tabletop play.
