Warlord Games Announces KONFLIKT ’47: INTRODUCTORY SET – A New Era of Weird War II Begins

Welcome to the grim, alternate reality of Konflikt ’47, a tabletop miniatures wargame that takes the familiar battlefields of World War II and plunges them into a world of impossible, terrifying, and advanced technology. This isn’t just a historical game with a sci-fi twist; it’s a full-blown “Weird World War” where mech walkers stride across the landscape, powered armour infantry clash, and terrifying genetic monstrosities are unleashed.

The Konflikt ’47 Introductory Set is your perfect gateway into this savage conflict, providing everything you need to start commanding your forces in a battle for supremacy in 1947.

The world of tabletop wargaming is about to get a whole lot weirder! Warlord Games has officially unveiled the upcoming Konflikt ’47 Introductory Set, the perfect launchpad for new and veteran players alike to jump into the dark, alternate history of 1947 where the Second World War rages on with terrifying, Rift-fueled technology.

This new box set is more than just a starter; it’s a self-contained combat experience designed to introduce the high-stakes, fast-paced action that sets Konflikt ’47 apart from its historical counterpart, Bolt Action.

Release Window: Mark Your Calendars!

While the full release date may vary by region, the Konflikt ’47 Introductory Set is currently slated for release in November 2025. Pre-orders are already underway, and given the excitement around the new edition and new plastic miniatures, this is one box you won’t want to miss.

What’s Inside the Box?

The set is meticulously curated to provide two complete, opposing forces and all the necessary components for immediate gameplay:

The Konflikt ’47 Field Manual: A complete, 68-page softback book guiding you through assembly, painting, and the core rules of the game.

The Forces of War:

• United States: 12 multi-part plastic Firefly Airborne Infantry (elite jump-pack troops), plus an exclusive Warlord Resin US Platoon Commander.
• Axis: 6 multi-part plastic Stahltruppen (imposing heavy power armour infantry), plus an exclusive Warlord Resin Axis Platoon Commander.
• Armoured Support: The set also includes two stunning Walker mechs, making it an excellent deal for a full, cinematic fight:
• 1 plastic M2A5 Linebacker Jump Walker (US)
• 1 plastic Vogelspinne Light Panzermech (Axis)
• Gaming Essentials: A double-sided paper Gaming Mat, plastic Ruined Buildings Scenery, Order Dice, Rift Dice (the unique dice that introduce instability and power to the Rift-tech weapons), tokens, and a dice bag.
• This selection of miniatures offers an immediate contrast in play styles: the high-mobility, aerial assault of the US Fireflies against the heavily armoured, implacable defense of the Axis.

Why This Set is a Game-Changer
A True Two-Player Starter: Unlike some bundles, this box contains everything two players need to learn and play, making it perfect for splitting the cost with a friend.

Focus on Rift-Tech: By including the new plastic Firefly and Stahltruppen kits, along with the Linebacker and Vogelspinne walkers, the box immediately immerses you in the “Weird World War” elements that define Konflikt ’47, rather than relying on standard historical infantry.

Refined Ruleset: The game is built upon the robust foundation of the Bolt Action engine but features key differences—particularly the powerful, yet unpredictable, Rift Dice—that make for a more lethal, high-octane battle experience. Reviews of the new edition have praised the clearer and more concise rule writing.

The Konflikt ’47 Introductory Set is set to be the definitive entry point for this terrifying and technologically advanced take on World War II.
