Warlord Games: We are very excited to announce the forthcoming release of the Pegasus Bridge battle set for Bolt Action. You can now place pre-orders for these superb battle-sets below.
This awesome set contains everything you need to recreate the daring raid that paved the way for the Allied D-Day invasion. And as if that wasn’t enough, we are also releasing a Collector’s Edition of the set, dubbed ‘Ham & Jam’ after the mission completion code words, that will be crammed with even more models and scenery. As you can see below, ace artist Peter Dennis has worked his magic with the cover art – quite possibly his best yet for Warlord Games!
What do you get?
Using the contents of the standard battle set (£125), you can really set the scene for this pivotal battle. The centrepiece is a laser-cut wooden model of the bridge itself (the bridge even swings open!), accompanied by models of the Cafe Gondree, as well as a machine gun pill box, a 5cm KwK 39 gun emplacement and even wooden telegraph poles. It also includes 20 plastic German infantry, 12 metal British Airborne soldiers and an exclusive sculpt of Major John Howard himself. Full-colour waterslide decal sheets are supplied for both sides. There is also a mini-campaign booklet allowing you to recreate the firefight over the bridge and following actions. I had to split up this post but press "read more ..." and check the content of the collector edition and pictures of the content!
The Ham & Jam! Collector’s Edition (£275) adds 6 resin sandbag emplacements (which can be put together into 3 machine gun emplacements), 3 more MG42 machine gun teams, 6 dead livestock models, a resin sandbag emplacement for the top of the control tower, 8 more telegraph poles and 12 resin Dragon’s teeth tank traps. In addition to this are 20 more plastic Germans, a Marder III Ausf. M tank destroyer, and 20 plastic Royal Marine Commandoes led by Lord Lovat and Piper Millin. We’ve even added a copy of Osprey Publishing’s Raid: Pegasus Bridge book to give you even more reference material, giving a full historical account and detailed uniform guides!
