Drop into the thick of the fight with Currahee! The US Airborne (D-Day) starter army!
Clad in their iconic reinforced M42 jump uniforms, these die-hard American paratroopers are ready to spearhead the assault on the Bolt Action tabletop. Combining plenty of lightweight firepower with a never-say-die attitude and intense training, they're a force of tough, veteran infantry who can take the fight to the foe any time, any place.
This Bolt Action starter army gives you a battle-ready force of US Airborne that you can field in games as soon as they're assembled. At its core is a strong Rifle Platoon consisting of a pair of 12-man Airborne squads, supported by a sniper and bazooka team, and guided into battle by a 6-man Pathfinder squad - all of these are made from the included plastic sprues. Leading this element of the force is a Warlord Resin Platoon Commander, ensuring your men know what the mission is!
Backing up the Rifle Platoon are a pair of smaller formations deploying powerful support weapons - a Heavy Weapons Platoon of two medium machine guns and one medium mortar team, plus a Platoon Commander, all in Warlord Resin, and an Artillery Platoon with two metal guns: a 75mm Pack Howitzer for indirect fire support, and a 57mm anti-tank gun for dealing with enemy armour. These are led by a Platoon Commander built from the plastic sprues.
This force gives you the perfect starting point for a US Airborne collection themed around the D-Day drops made famous in media such as Band of Brothers and can be endlessly tailored, or built upon, to fit your exact specifications. Get ready to board the aircraft and drop into combat!
