Bolt Action 1914????

So, Warlord are releasing WW1 tanks in a few weeks.

Maybe we'll see minis for the war as well at some point too. ;)

Seems like former best buds, Battlefront and Warlord, have decided to go head to head.

Well, different scales and it is the 100th anniversary.
28mm for me I'm afraid. :)

Seems like a good move to fan the flagging flames of war. I am guessing they are flagging, I may be wrong and don't wish to offend FoW fans. I don't think I would pick anything up for Bolt Action myself, nice though these unusual tanks are. I can't imagine a WWI game playing differently enough to appeal.

That would be cool if they made a rule book for the great war.
Interestingly there is also this.
