Early War German Infantry on Bicycles

Ride hard for the objective with these Early War German Infantry on Bicycles!

Bicycle-mounted troops were a key component of many armies early in the Second World War, providing light infantry with excellent on-road mobility without the need for fuel or expert maintenance. The Wehrmacht made good use of Radfahrtruppen in its invasions of Poland, France, and the Soviet Union, both for reconnaissance and liaison duties, and rapid advances.

On the Bolt Action tabletop, equipping your infantry with bicycles gives them excellent early-game mobility before they dismount to fight, allowing you to seize key objectives and get to cover before the shooting really starts. Perfect for Recce and Rifle Platoons, they’re a great way to get your force moving without spending extra points on transport vehicles!
