	Technically not an expansion, but not a separate game, Konflikt 47 is the idea that World War 2 kept going and started to get weird. How weird you may ask? Nazi zombies & werewolf, Soviet bear men, vampire men, tesla tank, American walker tanks, jetpack trooper, and British terminators weird. The story is that it turns out that dropping a nuke opens something called the "Rift". Before the rift was fully understood, the US dropped a nuke on Germany and formed another Rift. As it turns out, the Rift spews out signals that can be translated into all the weird shit you see in the start of this paragraph. Germany now has a second wind, Soviets leave the allies, Italy splits into 2 countries, and war continues. The game is notable in that it uses basically the same rules as Bolt Action 1st edition, with some added in stuff about fear (you know, because of the bear people and shit) and reactions. However, Warlord has not fleshed out rules and models for every army in the core game. Presently, models and rules exist for Britain, the United States, Germany, Russia, (recently) Japan, (newly) Italy, and hell, even the god damn Finns.

	'''Bolt Action''' is a World War II-themed tabletop wargame published by [[Warlord Games]] and written by ex-[[Games Workshop\|GW]] writers [[Rick Priestley]] and [[Alessio Cavatore]] and it shows. First published in only 2012, Bolt Action's popularity has increased as [[Warhammer 40,000]]'s has declined, thanks to similar mechanics making it easier for 40K veterans to understand. As a relatively new game, Warlord doesn't have a comprehensive range, so they encourage the use of third party miniatures (that and historical conflicts are considered public domain), even listing some of them on their main site and working with Italeri to create more 1/56 scale miniatures!

First published in only 2012, Bolt Action's popularity has increased as [[Warhammer 40,000]]'s has declined over the 2010's, thanks to similar mechanics making it easier for 40K veterans to understand. As a relatively new game, Warlord doesn't have a comprehensive range, so they encourage the use of third party miniatures (that and historical conflicts are considered public domain), even listing some of them on their main site and working with Italeri to create more 1/56 scale miniatures!

	Part of its popularity comes from how supportive Warlord are of clubs, tournaments, and events, with free starter kits provided for clubs and prize support (at a significant level) for events and tournaments (At least in the UK), their supportive approach has lead to the poaching of many one time 40K players.

	**Italy: Italy has a mix of mediocre to decent infantry, with special rules granting them at least one free emplacement per game. Italy's issues begin with a mix of lightly armoured vehicles, which provide bonuses to enemy shooting through their bolted armour, and end with their ''Avanti ~~Sovoia~~'' rule. This causes their morale to change significantly depending on if they're winning or losing- that is, they become braver if they happen to be winning, and they puss out if they happen to be losing. Considering what was just said about their shitty tanks...		**Italy: Italy has a mix of mediocre to decent infantry, with special rules granting them at least one free emplacement per game.
