The Great War Rulebook Vignette 08/05/08
We are expecting delivery of the new Great War rulebook from Warhammer Historical early next week. To celebrate the release of this exciting new rule system for playing battalion level games of WWI, all orders taken before Monday 16th June 2008 will recieve the 3 figure Baron Von Richthofen vignette absolutely FREE!
Pictured left is the Baron himself. The other figures are an irate officer in greatcoat pointing at a map and a pilot from The Baron's Circus paying cursory attention to the briefing. Unfortunately, due to a last-minute bizarre shower-based acident, Soapy damaged himself and was unable to do the vignette so instead Bill from Musketeer Miniatures stepped up and has delivered a cracker! The vignette will be seperately shipped to customers as soon as ithe moulding is finished. More pictures as we get them!
Get The Great War here.

Spears Again IMPORTANT INFORMATION 0805/08
Please note that we will no longer be supplying Lead Spears with our figures. We will be including all the other seperate weapons & shields as normal.
However, we will be including them in Army Deals, thus making them even better value!
Wire and Lead spears are available in Weapons Packs here.
This information over-rides any reference to seperate weapons or spears in the Product List as it will take time to go through and update all those entries.

It was Havoc! At Beast Towers 30/03/08
Thanks to everyone who came along to Havoc! At Beast Towers this weekend. A splendid time was had by all. Congrats to Duncan 'Wargames Illustrated' Macfarlane for crushing every opponent with his Hungarians, Chum Wayne for winning the Joust & Brian Maya for being Loveliest Army winner with his simply gorgeous Arab types. A fuller report later...honest. Until then, here is a picture of one of Nick Buchanan's knights that Lord S had declared 'Figure Of The Event.'
