March to war under the banner of the Axis! With the downfall of the Third Reich and the sudden rise of the shadowy Green Vault, Axis forces have consolidated into a single monolithic entity. Although the true ambitions of their leaders are shrouded in secrecy and misdirection, for the average Axis soldier, the goal is simple - survive, and throw back the enemies who press in from all sides! This starter army is the perfect way to begin your Konflikt '47 Axis collection, giving you a battle-ready force packed with the latest technology in one box. It’s also the first place you can get your hands on two brand new war machines, before they go on individual sale later. At the core of this hard-hitting force is the Assault Platoon, composed of a three-man Stahltruppen squad and five Nachtalben. The Stahltruppen are incredibly tough, and all but invulnerable to small arms fire - send them forwards and get stuck in - while the Nachtalben are fast-moving horrors, combining the intelligence of an elite soldier with a monstrous genetically modified body. Backing them up is an Armoured Platoon, with a scuttling Vogelspinne light walker ranging ahead of the line. This fast, versatile walker can be equipped with a wide variety of weaponry to fulfill different missions, and makes up for its light armour with serious mobility. Alongside it strides a Panzer IV Ausf. X. Marrying the proven Panzer IV chassis to six powerful legs and a Schwerefeld gravitational projector, this walking tank can crush enemy infantry and vehicles alike - literally - both at range and up close. Leading the entire force is an exclusive Platoon Commander, available only in this box. Clad in the same massive armour as the Stahltruppen, this officer’s abilities can turn the tide of battle, and he’s no slouch in hand-to-hand fighting either! Konflikt '47 is the game of heroes, horrors, monsters, and mechs, putting you in command of the nightmarish struggle for supremacy as the old world is torn apart and remade in blood and crackling energy. Fast-paced, lethal gameplay provides countless cinematic moments, with fluctuating Rift energies and the ever-present fog of war ensuring that no two games are ever the same, and the outcome is never guaranteed. Heroes and villains on each side lend their unique abilities to turn the tide of battle, as mechs and monsters face off in brutal contests of flesh versus steel. This is not war. This is the end.
