Khurasan Miniatures: 15mm Rise of the Garn Range


Khurasan Miniatures: Our 15mm Rise of the Garn range is about to be released. This is a blackpowder sci-fi range that will be perfect for Victorian Sci Fi, Fantasy with a rather higher tech than the usual Tolkienesque types, or even straight sci fi in which an alien civilisation is much less advanced than otherworldly visitors/invaders but not in total savagery. For a lark, it might even be fun for Napoleonic players who want to use their own rules for something less serious, and much easier to paint!

First to be previewed are the Arak, for many centuries the great power of planet Torosus, with a balanced, professional army armed with blackpowder weapons -- a key advantage over the other sentients who had risen on the planet. Well, most of them. The core of the Arak armies are the battalions of Arak Infantry, armed with a short blackpowder smoothbore and a sword-bayonet. Many of these march into combat in deep columns to better facilitate the war of concentration and manouevre that brought the Arak Emperor (called by some a tyrant), Qoor-Sekan, so many victories. Each unit is given a Spider Standard with a golden spider atop it, a precious and revered symbol of the unit's attachment to emperor and nation. The range will be released next week, as soon as I can do the html to set the new store page up. Weekends are for editing images and catching up on orders!
