BigRedBat: TtS! For King and Parliament - Celtic Fringe Extra Rules
BigRedBat: This is to purchase the digital version of the Celtic Fringe extra rules book, intended for use alongside the TtS! For King and Parliament rules and the Montrose "To Win or Lose it All" scenario book. By Celtic Fringe, we refer to the land and people west and north of the "Highland Line" in Scotland, and their Gaelic-speaking cousins across the Irish Sea. The book contains extra rules that build on the For King and Parliament mechanisms, modelling the traditional styles of fighting that still survived in these areas. It will also support two future scenario books in the same series, concerned with the Insurgency and Catholic Confederation in Ireland, and with Cromwell's campaigns in Ireland and Scotland.

Daniel's Games Emporium: New Arrowstorm: Battle Games in Medieval Britain Rules!
Daniel's Games Emporium: In this gridded-layout miniature wargame, you take the role of a medieval king, bishop, lord, or commander leading your army on the battlefield. You must choose where and how to focus your troops' actions and control the battle’s impetus. The battle is partly fought on the tabletop like other miniature wargames but is also fought just as hard on the Tactics Chart, providing an additional mind-game against your opponent.
Command your units to move and fight in the areas of the battlefield you wish, but leave the actual process of fighting to your unit commanders. This is represented by the random factor of dice and each of your units’ abstract but often-decreasing Battle Rating. Because of this, your focus is kept where it should be – out-thinking your opponent by using superior tactics and exploiting their weaknesses on the battlefield.
Arrowstorm is not intended as a heavy simulation of medieval warfare but as an enjoyable, simple, and fast-playing battle game. You’ll find that much of the action is stylized and streamlined. Don’t think of “turns” in the usual wargaming way – in each turn your units may fight or move several times, countered by your opponent after every action, creating a very fluid game but at the same time making cohesive planning difficult to achieve. Please note that Arrowstorm shares the same basic rules with my Age of Penda book. Period-specific troop types, army lists, special rules, and minor rules differences exist. Check these new rules now here!
‘You Command’ is a series of light miniature wargames by Origins Award winner Daniel Mersey (Lion Rampant, Dragon Rampant, Battle Ravens, and many more games). When you play a ‘You Command’ game, your goal is to defeat your opponent by out-thinking them tactically using the innovative Tactics Chart, and then by out-fighting their model army on the tabletop battlefield.

The Plastic Soldier Company: New WW2 3D Printed 6mm, 10mm, 12mm, 15mm and 20mm Ranges!
The Plastic Soldier Company: We were so impressed with the new special tabletop resin we have been using to print 10mm and 15mm Cromarty ancients miniatures that we decided to test it on WW2 and Cold War vehicles and…..WOW! The results have been astounding in terms of detail and durability in all scales.
So…….we have put together a specially curated collection of 3d printed WW2 miniatures from Plastic Soldier, Excellent Minis and some of the best digital designers and sculptors with the aim to offer complete 6mm, 10mm, 12mm, 15mm and 20mm WW2 German, British and Commonwealth, US, Soviet, Italian, French, Polish, Hungarian, Romanian and Japanese ranges.
We aim to comprehensively cover options and variants with drop down choice menus for many products. For example, the Panzer IV has options from A to J with zimmerit where applicable and even a couple of destroyed versions. Each product will also be available singly or in multi buy unit packs of 3,4 or 5 miniatures at an increasing discount.
6mm, 10mm and 12mm wholly 3d printed and 15mm and 20mm a mixture of existing Plastic Soldier hard plastic kits and 3d prints. Starting with German vehicles, we have the vast majority of WW2 German vehicles loaded and will be adding artillery and infantry very soon. We will then work our way through the rest of the nations in the next few weeks.
Products will be printed to order so please allow 2-12 days and will be manufactured and shipped for UK customers in the UK, for EU customers in the EU and for Rest of World customers from either UK or Germany. So no nasty extra import, customs or VAT costs for EU customers! We have something very special and new in terms of infantry. Cold War Northag will also be getting the same treatment…..

Victrix: New Plastic Roman Manuballista Release
Victrix: Every Roman Centuria within a Legion was equipped with a Light Bolt shooter (either Scorpion or Manuballista) These were manned by regular Legionaries and used in the field or defensively from forts or during sieges. They were capable of hurling a large dart or bolt at much longer ranges than the typical bow and added some devastating long range, heavy hitting firepower to any Roman Legion. There is a useful image on Trajan’s column depicting this Bolt-shooter with cylindrical drums laying siege to a Dacian hillfort. You get a lot of bits to really customise each figure and make your bolt-shooter bases look ready for business.
What you get 4 x Bolt shooters and the option of extended slider and drawn back slider ready to shoot, 4 x barrels and lots of loose bolts to fill the barrels, 8 x defensive stakes, 16 x crew figures in various poses. Ratcheting back the hand cranks, loading the bolts, standing guard. We even have arms with picks, axes and buckets so you can use them as Romans building and entrenching and 44 x Heads including Option head with Feathers and some bare heads. If you want to convert this into a Late Roman bolt-shooter you could easily convert some of the Late Roman infantry figures from the armoured, unarmoured and archer sets.

Perry Miniatures: New Plastic Duchy of Warsaw Infantry Preview
Perry Miniatures: Plastic Duchy of Warsaw Infantry news! We are looking at a mid-February release with both boxes of the Duchy of Warsaw Infantry… fingers crossed. These will probably go up for pre-order towards the end of this month. We thought we would show you the fantastic Elite box cover by David Gallagher (who did the Battalion box too).
We also have the first shots of the command frame in. There are a few tweaks to do but not too much as they were very good first shots. As you can see it’s a pretty busy frame, more and more things had to be added. For example, there are five sappers heads with different bearskins as colonel’s liked their regiment to be distinctive, so the ‘heads of the column’ had to stand out. A couple of regiments (irritatingly) had drummers in French cut coats, so an extra drummer for the 4th (who also had a distinctive shako) and the 17th regiments had to be included on the frame. John Morris and Stephan Huber have sent some painted examples in and some of these are shown here. The deal figure Alan decided to make (actually, soon after seeing the panorama of the battle of Raszyn when in Poland recently) was Prince Jozef Poniatowski at Raszyn.
