Konflikt 47 at BATG, A Bolt Action Player’s Perspective

A familiar core system

Konflikt 47 uses the same order dice and activation system as Bolt Action, so games feel instantly familiar to existing players. Turns flow in a way that Bolt Action players already understand, making it easy to focus on the setting and new units rather than relearning how the game works.

Easy entry for Bolt Action players

The game largely uses the same miniatures as Bolt Action, making it simple to jump in with forces you may already own. This makes Konflikt 47 a great way to explore the Weird War setting without committing to an entirely new collection straight away, especially before things start to get really strange on the battlefield.

Weird War done right with Rift Dice

The Rift Dice mechanics are where Konflikt 47 truly shines. These rules add power and unpredictability to experimental units and strange technology, capturing the unstable science and horrific experimentation that define the setting. Rift Dice help make every game feel tense and unpredictable, without slowing the pace.

A smooth and modern gameplay experience

Konflikt 47 flows extremely well on the tabletop. The use of an online army list helps keep points values and special rules up to date, meaning players spend less time checking FAQs and more time actually playing the game. This modern approach makes list building and balance far easier to manage.

Familiar, but clearly its own game

If you enjoy Bolt Action and are curious about adding science fiction horror and experimental warfare into the mix, Konflikt 47 offers a distinct experience while still building on a ruleset you already enjoy. It feels comfortable without feeling stale, and different without being overwhelming.

At BATG, this makes Konflikt 47 an ideal game for players looking to expand beyond traditional historical wargaming while keeping a solid tactical foundation.
