A snapshot taken moments before a bloody and savage death for an intrepid explorer of the wild ways and places. Rumour has it that this fearsome beast is no myth and poetic imagining but is instead a white metal reality coming this week for pre-order at 15mm.co.uk. I could not possibly say at this time but perhaps in a few days time….a more in depth look maybe.
For now gaze and long for it…I know I do.
Now I must go a galumphing back to work.

Something I had been working on for several weeks a wee while ago has now become public knowledge so I can mention it on the blog! Below I have lifted the text from 15mm.co.uk as it saves me a bit of typing:
We are proud and pleased to announce that Noble Knight Games, one of America’s foremost suppliers of wargame miniatures, roleplay games, out of print titles and much more, is now stocking 15mm.co.uk and Alternative Armies products. NKG aim to provide a top notch service and with that in mind if you are in North America please go along to their website on the links below and have a look. You can order HOF,HOT, Laserburn, HOTT Armies, Altuos and all Alternative Armies starter sets and rulebooks like HOF Fire-Team and the USE ME Series. All prices in USD and provided locally to American gamers. If you are a fan of Noble Knight Games and of us as too you can now combine both interests in one order!
Additionally if you can’t see one of our products on the NKG website that you would like to order please email them and let them know!
I am very pleased with this new arrangement with Aaron Leeder over at NKG’s as I have watched his work with admiration from afar for years. Noble Knight often causes referrals to Alternative Armies. When they, NKG, pick up small amounts of stock (Firefight 1.0, Flintloque 1.0, 2.0, Erin and other miniatures) from their sources and sell it on using their webstore. Their customers then coming to us directly for more. Back in the 1990’s Alternative Armies product was in most of the thousands of gaming stores in the USA before the big distributors went belly up. This results in little amounts of treasure popping up all the time.
Once more the peoples of the USA can access the goodness of the Alternative!
