Bolt Action - Operation Bad Moon @ Holloway Saturday 25th July

Operation – Bad Moon - Saturday 25^th July

Operation – Bad Moon will be the inaugural Bolt Action event at Bad Moon – Holloway. It will be a competitive event with the aim being a fun but challenging set of games for all and to give the Bolt action community a regular competitive event.

The event is suitable for new and experienced players alike and, whilst games will be played in a competitive manner, players are expected to do so with humour, respect and the acceptance of both good and bad dice rolling, whatever the consequences.

Players will be awarded the following Victory Points per round:
