Polish Army Weapons Team
Infantry weapons teams are a key component of any Bolt Action army; providing as they do great tactical flexibility for your force. Sniper teams; light mortar teams and anti-tank rifle teams are among the most prevalent; presenting your opponent with multiple challenges to overcome.
Like many other nations; Poland learned well the lessons of World War I; and saw the value in close-support mortar weaponry. Many infantry companies were issued 46mm light mortars to fulfil this close support role.
The Polish Army didn’t include specially equipped snipers as such; but the best shots in a company would be designated as marksmen.
The Polish wz.35 anti-tank rifle was unusual in that it did not fire a solid tungsten core round as did most other nations’ anti-tank rifles. Rather; it fired a standard lead core with a steel jacket. Instead of penetrating the hull like traditional anti-tank rounds; the transferred energy would cause spalling (making a piece of armour tear off inside the crew compartment) that lead to fragments ricocheting around the inside of the vehicle – a very nasty affair for the crew!
