Bolt Action Operation Rosselsprung (FIGURE ONLY)

Operation Rösselsprung Special Figure, a meticulously crafted miniature representing a paratrooper from the 500th SS Parachute Battalion. This unit was notable for its composition of volunteers from regular SS formations and individuals drawn from SS penal units. The figure captures the paratrooper in a dynamic pose, leaning against a rock wall, weapon at the ready, embodying the tension and urgency of the mission.

The design process for this miniature was detailed in an article by Warlord Games, highlighting the careful attention to historical accuracy and the desire to convey a narrative through the figure's pose and equipment. The sculptor emphasized the importance of natural elements, such as the texture and placement of the rock wall, to enhance the realism of the scene.

For collectors and enthusiasts, this special figure not only serves as a gaming piece but also as a tribute to the complex history of World War II operations.
