A squad of 8 infantry that double-up as tank riders!
A blast; smoke and fire marker to allow that cinematic touch.
A stat card for either tank which holds all the information you need for your Bolt Action battles.
The KV-1 Heavy Tank
The KV-1 is a huge monster of a vehicle weighing at 45 tonnes it was one of Russia's first heavy breed of tanks used within the second world war; it was famed for it's near impregnability. The German anti-tank weaponry of the time had nearly no way of penetrating its armour; only the lack of training and manoeuvrability allowing it to fall foul of superior German tactics.
Their size allowed KV-1s to literally crush anything beneath its giant treads; firing lines and encampments were abandoned on the sheer sight of it. The 76.2mm cannon still punched through any of the current German armour; so during 1941; it was nigh-unstoppable.
The KV-1 set the example of how a heavy tank could or should be; nearly indestructible and to cause terror in their enemy. Over the following years it did fall out of favour; but it was used as the base for the next generation of heavy tanks.
The KV-2 Self-Propelled Artillery Gun
Developed to be used in conjunction with the KV-1; the KV-2 was developed for close support against infantry; guns and bunkers. Just like the KV-1 it was very heavily armoured and boasted an even greater size with a height of 12 feet(4 meters)!
Armed with a huge 152mm howitzer they primarily became bunker busters; with an operational range of 140 km or 87 miles; you'll leave any enemy quaking in their boots wondering if they can hold out against such a barrage.
