Work in Progress!
We wanted to give a brief update on a few (not all) of the projects that are in the works right now. Every Friday in our weekly email we list most of the projects that are in process with their status. Things like: when the test shot (T1) date is, if boxes are being designed, figures are being painted for the boxes, etc to give you a ballpark idea of when they're coming. Of course nothing is for certain until we put it up for pre-order but this keeps you in the loop.
Here are a few that are moving right along that we thought we'd highlight:
Dark Ages Army Builder
The two frames for this are in tooling (the third frame will be the existing Dark Ages Shields frame) and you can see here what will be on them:
There will be 48 figures in the box. with head options to make them Goths, Saxons, in two types of helmets, or Franks (although we just didn't have room to fit more than 4 Frankish heads per frame but we'll be rectifying that with the future Merovingian Franks set!) A mix of spear, sword, and ax let's you build out a proper horde.
This set was part of Vox Populi and has been on pre-production order at a special rate of $34.95/£25/50CAD. That will be changing soon to the MSRP of $39.95/£30/55CAD. So get your order in now if you'd like to save!
Chinese Warring States
Equally popular in Vox Populi were sets to create a 28mm Chinese Warring States army. The files for this have all been prepped and are now in layout. Marco Capparoni is working on the artwork and we think it's going to be a beauty!
Classic Fantasy Battles Dwarven Host
Next up to meet the Orc Horde in battle is the Dwarven Host! Featuring a variety of units this set will form the core of any Dwarven army and plays a significant role in the army of the High Queen. File prep and layout is complete and these are off to tooling:
Satyr Brutes
Originally produced by our friends at RGD Gaming we recently acquired their plastic sets and will be doing some minor mold work to re-release them as part of the Classic Fantasy range. Their fantastic Satrys are up first and as they are quite big boys (about 33mm form hoof to eye) we have rechristened them the Satry Brutes! Peter Dennis has done some lovely artwork for the new box:
note: this is the pre-cleaned/pre-scanned version of the artwork
Survivors/Civilians
The second addition to our Pulp Advenure range is Survivors/Civilians. This VERY versatile set (like the Zombies) will, we believe, be highly useful for a wide variety of things in 28mm wargaming. We're not ready to show it all yet - the parts are currently in file prep prior to getting a layout in about a week or so. We'll just leave you with some of Chris Hindmarsh's painting and photography:
That's just a taste of things that are in the works at the moment. There will be a lot of things coming before these and there are a lot of plastic sets in the queue right behind them. Sign up for the weekly Friday email below to stay up to date on all the sets that are on the way including more for the Quar, Barons' War, Classic Fantasy Battles, Grand Battle Scale, and more!
