The next batch of TB Line moulds is complete so we're very happy to announce that the Teutonics are back on sale!

This range has 8 codes covering mounted command, cavalry and infantry with a nice mix of sculpts in each. We've also managed to find a couple of extra poses in the master moulds so both the 'Crossbowmen' and 'Heavy European infantry' have got an extra pose which might not have been available previously. As with the other TB ranges, the horses and riders are separate castings and some of these also have separate shields.

For those who've not had any TB Line figures before, they match up very well to our own in both size and proportions. We've not made any changes to the sculpts but they have been cleaned up for the new moulds and are much crisper castings.

TB Line
Middle Age Teutonics
TB-4163 Mounted command group (15) £5.50
TB-4164 Teutonic Knights (15) £5.50
TB-4165 European Heavy Knights (15) £5.50
TB-4166 Light cavalry with short weapons (15) £5.50
TB-4167 Light cavalry with lances (15) £5.50
TB-4168 Crossbowmen (30) £5.50
TB-4169 Light European infantry (30) £5.50
TB-4170 Heavy European infantry (30) £5.50
(Packs contain 15 cavalry or 30 infantry)

And the pics:

We'd bumped the Teutonics ahead of the Islamics so those will now be the next TB range to come back online. We'll be getting to those once the Indian Mutiny range is all done and released.

V1 Launch Ramp Released!

Well we promised you something special and here it is!  Many years ago we had a V1 with a launch ramp, but it was a single piece casting and quite basic so we decided to upgrade it a little bit...!

This new launch ramp is a fantastic bit of work by John at Ironclad Miniatures and has been given an equally outstanding paintjob by the talented Jason Dawson of JAD Designs.  John has based the design on the launch sites found at du Mesnil au Val or Vacquerie Le Boucq.

Comprising of 8 pieces, the resin launch ramp comes in two base pieces along with a ramp, 4 supports and a sentry box.  We've then added a pair of engineers, plus a couple of sentries and a guard dog.  This is a big kit, measuring 330 x 140 mm overall (210 mm for the ramp) and would make an excellent objective in your WWII games.  You could add a countdown factor for added excitement, stop the rocket before it launches in turn 6...!  It would of course look just as good as a terrain piece on any northern France tables.

Trench Railway Released!

Something for the WWI gamers now, as we've released a complete trench railway system along with a Simplex locomotive to run on it!

These railways were developed during the trench warfare period of WWI to allow the delivery of food, ammunition and construction materials to the front line, where the usual transport networks had been destroyed. These narrow gauge tracks created a connection to the standard gauge railways further back from the front line and proved extremely successful. As well as the UK, similar railways were used by Russia, France and Germany, with a variety of gauges in use from 600mm to 750mm (ours is 600mm).

Simplex were known as Motor Rail during the war and were one of several producers of locomotives and wagons to run on these new trench railways. We've done the early style of tractor with the open top, later versions had a covered roof over them and armoured side doors. We've also done a small handcart as well, which could be pushed along the rail in front of the locomotive with smaller items or wounded soldiers on it.

WWI
Trench Railway
SCN-NTR1 Simplex trench locomotive set (1 locomotive, 2 wagons, 1 handcart) £5.00
SCN-NTR2 Simplex trench locomotive (1) £1.00
SCN-NTR3 Wagons (2) £4.00
SCN-NTR4 Handcarts (2) £1.00
SCN-NTR5 Stowage set (5 pieces) £2.00
SCN-NTR6 Trench railway set (4 large straights, 2 small straights, 2 small curves, 2 large curves) £12.00
SCN-NTR7 Trench railway junctions (2) £5.00
SCN-NTR8 Trench railway, damaged sections (2) £2.50

Railway straight sections are 100mm long, curves are 90mm long, short straights/curves are 50mm long. Junctions are 125mm long and the damaged sections are 50mm.

And a couple of pics:

 

Next in the release queue is a bit of a surprise, so keep an eye out for that!

After a busy start to the year with BKC-IV, Kickstarters and more, it's finally time for some proper new releases!

Pirates have been in our Top 10 requests for quite some time now so we've decided to give them a go. We've done a nice captain figure, along with 5 different poses of pirates armed with musket, pistol and cutlass. These chaps would also do duty as slave revolt / mutiny types in areas like the Haitain Revolution, so we hope you like them!

18th Century
Pirates
PRT1 Pirate Captain £0.55
PRT2 Pirates / slave revolters £5.25

And the pics:

PRT1 - Pirate Captain

PRT2 - Pirates / slave revolters

More to come very soon with some Marlburian revamps and then the launch of our 1809 Napoleonic expansion, once all of the pre-orders have been posted out.
