It's time for yet more new releases.
We released the latest Napoleonic French releases at the Castle Donnington show and by the end of the weekend the fixture had been picked clean, so I think that there are one or two of you waiting for this latest batch which consists of:

French Grenadiers in Greatcoat, formed

and skirmishing...

...as well as some splendid Guard Artillery, both Foot

and Horse.

You can see all the details and order some to swell your ranks if you CLICK HERE

There's more to come for the French, but before that we'll have some exciting news about our Great War ranges, so stay watching the News site over the next few days.

Finally and somewhat inevitably given the time of year, we have shows coming thick and fast, notably Fiasco at Leeds and Crisis at Antwerp.
If any of you have any orders for collection at these events, can you please get them into us as soon as you can so that we can cast them in good time.

New 6mm Mont St Jean

October sees the release of a new 6mm Napoleonic model from Leven Miniatures in the form of Mont St Jean farm, Belgium - the first of three new models due out to celebrate the 200th Anniversary of Waterloo.
Mont St Jean farm is situated on the main road from the Waterloo battlefield to Brussels, and on 18 June 1815 was used by Wellington as a hospital to treat the wounded on that day. The only French soldiers who got near it were either prisoners or possibly some cuirassiers of Milhaud IV Cavalry Corps that may have entered the farm enclosure during one of the French cavalry charges that day.
This rendered stone representation of Mont St Jean is hand cast in a paint-friendly ivory coloured polyester resin and consists of seven main pieces, one of which has an interchangeable roofing option, and a built footprint of roughly 175 x 125mm.

Other 6mm Napoleonic models due to be released in the near future include Papelotte and Hougoumont.

Our 28mm 28mm French ADC is now available from our growing Napoleonic range loosely based on Marshal Massena's mistress and other ladies in uniform at Waterloo found in Hussar uniforms on the battlefield after the conflict was over.
