View full detailsBolt Action – American Forces
The American forces in Bolt Action represent the might of the United States military during World War II. Known for their flexibility, firepower, and access to powerful support units, U.S. armies in Bolt Action offer players a balanced force capable of handling any battlefield situation. From airborne paratroopers and Sherman tanks to infantry squads backed by bazookas and machine guns, the Americans are well-rounded and beginner-friendly, with strong synergy between units. Whether you're recreating the D-Day landings, battles in the Pacific, or campaigns across Europe, the American faction brings historical flavor and tactical options to your tabletop.
1. What makes the American army unique in Bolt Action?
American forces have special rules like "Fire and Maneuver," allowing them to move and shoot without penalty. They also benefit from excellent support units such as air observers, medium machine guns, and a wide variety of tanks and transport vehicles, making them one of the most flexible armies in the game.
2. Are American armies beginner-friendly?
Yes. The U.S. army is often recommended for new players thanks to its straightforward units, balanced capabilities, and forgiving special rules. The availability of cost-effective starter sets also makes it easy to build a playable force quickly.
3. What kinds of units can I include in a U.S. force?
American forces can include infantry squads, paratroopers, rangers, engineers, machine gun teams, mortar crews, anti-tank weapons, artillery, Sherman tanks, half-tracks, jeeps, and more. You can build forces that reflect historical platoons from Europe, Africa, or the Pacific theater.
4. Are there American paratroopers or elite units available?
Yes. Units like the 101st Airborne Division and U.S. Rangers are available and provide elite infantry options with higher morale, better weapons, and improved stats. These are perfect for aggressive playstyles or thematic D-Day and Market Garden forces.
5. What tanks do American players commonly use?
The most iconic American tank is the M4 Sherman, which comes in several variants suited to different roles. Players can also field the M3 Stuart, M10 tank destroyer, and M18 Hellcat. These provide a mix of speed, armor, and anti-tank capabilities.
6. Can I field a historical American army from the Pacific?
Absolutely. Warlord Games offers models and lists for building forces from the Pacific theater, including U.S. Marines. These forces often emphasize close-quarters fighting, flamethrowers, and amphibious assaults, making for a different playstyle compared to European theater armies.
7. What are good starting points for collecting an American army?
The Bolt Action U.S. Starter Army box is a great place to begin, including a core force of infantry, support weapons, and a tank. From there, players often expand with paratroopers, artillery, or vehicles depending on their preferred theme or playstyle.
