Perry Miniatures: Metal Price Rise Cometh! I’m afraid, due to metal cost increases and general production costs, we’re going have to raise the prices on all metals on the 14th October by 50p. We’re sorry about this, but we’ve absorbed the increases for some time now and we do need to put them up.

Joseph A. McCullough: New Deathship One - SciFi Survival Game Release
Joseph A. McCullough: Welcome to Deathship One. Better listen up, because the truth is, you probably won’t live long. You see, you’ve been brought here to die. I don’t know why. Maybe it’s a test or an experiment to measure the capability of warriors from your planet. Maybe it’s just entertainment, like a circus or gameshow. Or maybe this is punishment, a personal purgatory for your sins. Now, I don’t mean to bring you down. I just don’t want to fill you with any false hopes either.
On the other side of that door is a room, and beyond that another, and another, and another. In fact, there are five rooms in total. Each of those rooms is designed to kill you in different ways. Traps, monsters, automated weapons systems, you name it. No, I can’t tell you what the next room looks like, even if I wanted to. It changes every time. The rooms shift around you see. But you’ve got one chance. You’ve got to fight your way through all five rooms. In the unlikely event you survive, you get to go home. So, it’s that simple. You fight your way through, you survive. You might even find a few things to help you on the way. Seriously though, make your peace before you open that door, because once you do, there’s going to be no time for praying…
Deathship One is a solo or co-operative miniatures games of science-fiction survival. Choose a squad of soldiers from any time period, or even the future, and see if they can survive the horrors of the Deathship. Designed to play fast, with a minimum of rules and terrain, it takes miniatures gaming right now to the nitty gritty of running, shooting, and dying. Designed by Joseph A. McCullough the creator of Frostgrave, Stargrave, Rangers of Shadow Deep, Oathmark, and The Silver Bayonet. Check these new rules here

Daniel's Games Emporium: Glutter of Ravens: Warfare in the Age of Arthur Rules
Daniel's Games Emporium: Glutter of Ravens was first published in 1998 and became known as an essential guide to wargaming the Arthurian period. This 2024 "Author's Edition" is a reproduction of the original text but features a new layout, additional notes, and the author’s new preface. Part One contains a set of miniature wargaming rules designed to recreate and play battles in post-Roman Britain. These rules allow players to take the part of historical leaders, who field an army representing the warriors of their kingdom and fight using the tactics of the period. The rules are fairly simple to learn, and there are no hard and fast restrictions governing the size of miniatures used. Part Two will be of interest to anybody who cares for the historical King Arthur and the military history of his time. This part of the book describes the warriors of the period, the way in which battles were fought, and the equipment used by the fighting man of Arthurian Britain. I've also made available a printable Army Sheet and QRS in case you just buy the printed version of this book.
Important note about the Author’s Edition: With the closure of the original publisher, Outpost Wargame Services, Glutter of Ravens fell out of print so I decided to revive it. I’ve done this as a labour of love to keep my vintage book about early medieval wargaming in circulation and also finally make it available as a PDF. It’s a “dead system” because I gave the rules a major overhaul when Osprey Games came knocking some years ago; Dux Bellorum (Osprey Publishing, 2012) is a revised and much-changed reimagining of my original Glutter of Ravens concepts and I feel that it’s a more viable game to play this side of the year 2000. That said, I do think it’s worth giving these rules a run out for old times’ sake and I had great fun dusting off this original version and getting a few games in. As with many rules from that time, assumptions are made about the players’ knowledge of wargaming in general and their ability to “fill in the blanks” – as a consequence, I do not recommend Glutter of Ravens as a beginner’s set of wargame rules but as an archaic and arcane set of rules for more experienced wargamers to revisit. A major caveat for Part Two of the book – The Resources – is that the content was written a quarter of a century ago and has not been updated. Re-reading it, there’s little that I’d say is definitely now “wrong”, but so much more has since been discovered about the period and some of my own views have changed considerably. My more recent books present my evolving thoughts on the history of the period. Check these new rules here

Victrix: New 12mm Plastic WWII 8th Army and Afrika Korps Preview
Victrix: 12mm WW2 8th army and Afrika Korps update: A bit of an update for all your 12mm WW2 fans out there! The 8th army infantry frame is off to be tooled now so should be ready in a few weeks.
We changed this frame composition up a little on this set by adding in a 2pdr antitank gun and crew to give them a little more firepower. The 2pdr comes with a chassis for limbered and unlimbered. If limbered you can use this in conjunction with the Victrix 12mm Universal carriers released earlier this year (this has desert crew options) You get a good mix of riflemen, Tommy Gunner NCO’s, Bren gunners (more added to this set due to customer demand) Officers, Mortar crew, radio operators, mine detectors for those pesky German minefields which played such an important role in the North African campaign, and Vickers and crew.
We did have some people mention they thought the bayonet was too early, however to make the later bayonet at 12mm it was just far too fragile. It would snap a lot and possibly not even tool! So we went with the sword bayonet which is more robust and won’t break. You will get 4 double frames in each set.
For those eager to know, we have also started work on the 12mm Afrika Korps. 8 figures in so a little way to go, but not too long before they are off to be tooled. Yasmin has been doing a fabulous job on all these latest 12mm releases and seems to get better with each new release. The detail levels are great and we are really trying to push the boundaries on what we can produce. Even down to the eagle badge over the right breast pocket on the Germans! You will notice that some of the German infantry have 2 water bottles hanging from their belts. Water was so important in the desert and they would carry as much as they could. We have also added goggle and face scarves on some which adds a real flavour to the miniatures.
