It is sad to see infantry going away in the box sets. I know tanks are fun, but the old sets always had a decent amount.

Being an infantry company player myself I would agree with you however... These starter sets are meant to bring people into the hobby and I completely understand not starting with an infantry and gun team centric force. Its much easier to start with some tanks get them painted and onto the table. Get those newbies hooked!

... Bolt Action has become pretty hot right now

BG, I sometimes get questions on who plays BoltAction and where do they play it.

If you are interested in new players, then what should I say when some one asks: "Who?" "When?" "Where?"

The best answer I can give is to have them get on Ordo and send me a PM. My schedule does not allow for weekly games, so I play when the stars align. 🙂 But I'd be happy to make some time to help out new players.
