Out From the Jungles: Operation Wolf

Upcoming Event: Operation Wolf

The Baconburgers will be playing this weekend at Operation Wolf, a 900 point Bolt Action event run by Old Man Morin from the Cast Dice Podcast. The event is running at Good Games Melbourne and has 26 players registered, with an emphasis on a beginner-friendly environment.

Over the last six months, I've been painting up an Australian army based on the New Guinea theatre. I've finally gotten the army to a level where they can come out to an event, which is very exciting. Having Op Wolf at 900 points had also made this a bit easier for me as it means I don't have to paint an extra unit or two!

I fell in love with this army after Warlord published the New Guinea campaign book last year, along with a beautiful new range of Australian models, all in metal. The campaign book came out after much anticipation as there was a lot of people working on it to make it the best it can be, including Brian & Patch from the Australian Bolt Action community. I'm glad the writers and play-testers took their time with the book, because it is a pleasure to read and use as a resource to base armies off.
