This week Alternative Armies is releasing those four new 28mm Ion Age sci-fi miniatures that I showed you all last week.  You can see them above and first off let me offer a big thank you and well done to Sam Croes who painted and based these four as a favour to me.  One of the four even looks a little like my father in law!

These four are coded as follows:

  • IB051 Retained Squires (a pack of all four white metal miniatures with bases)
  • IA190 Retained Squire with campaign version Moth Type 12 (one in from left)
  • IA191 Retained Squire signalling the advance (on the left)
  • IA192 Retained Squire with Octa Power Sword (one in from the right)
  • IA193 Retained Squire running with Angis 12.5mm AP Rifle (on the right)

Look for these miniatures in the Ion Age Miniature Range on the Alternative Armies website.  Suitable for any 28mm science fiction game including MOTH and Firefight 2.0.

These four are all without helms for their armour and this was the number one request for new miniatures that the company got from gamers.  Suitable as post (fire-team), lance (squad) leaders or just as troopers they add some great variety on the tabletop.  Pricing will be about 2.50GBP each with a small reduction for the pack of four.

Sam Croes also did some other miniatures in the Ion Age for his own collection; the Retained of Castella.  You can see them in this posting here on my blog.

Sharke’s Chosen Un’s

“Muvver was right…that bugger Sharkey wasn’t on his own.  Oh, no.  He had more of ‘is mates wif im’.  Chosen Un’s he calls em.  Chosen for what, to be sneaky sods like Sharkey.  I bet.”

Chosen Un's

“On top of his huge bloody Bog Orc he has these gits too!”  “It’s not right…says so in the screamtures!” “There’s Rifleorc Arris, Rifleorc Hagsmun, Rifleorc Tunge..a new lad there looks like Rifleorc Koopa and that brat Rifleorc Purrkinz.”

“Next you’ll be telling me he has other officers for ‘is mates too!”
