Anyone overjoyed?  Anyone wanting to lead a torch and pitchfork mob on Schloss Baccus?


I have plans.   I am dangerous when I have plans...

Hi Peter

Well I for one am totally stoked that there may be some WW1 Middle East/Mesopotamia minis on the horizon. I purchased the Too Fat Lardies WWI Middle East rules 'If the Lord Spares Us' (which are ideal for 6mm) some time ago quietly hoping that the good folk at Baccus might put out a suitable range. If I could unashamedly put a plug in for some ANZAC's to be included that would be awesome - Australian and New Zealand infantry along with the New Zealand Mounted Rifles (mounted and dismounted) and of course the Australian Light Horse   - and if your sculptors are feeling particulalry adventurous the Aussies have the slouch hat whilst the Kiwis wear the 'lemon squeezer' style. While I'm on a roll I'll also throw a shout out for some Senussi Arabs for the often overlooked Senussi campaign. Bit of a wish-list I know but you know what they say, if you don't ask.....

Seriously though, really looking forward to what 2017 might hold for us, especially with respect to the WW1 and WW2 ranges. The torch and pitchfork can go back in the cupboard for now.     

 

regards

Roger

YES!... WW1 'Mespot'. Visited both Gallipoli and Sulva Bay about 3 years ago now. Know what my next project is going to be.

It looks like a good mix of new ranges plus resculpting some of the older range of figures. Nice period range too, with the 2017 plans alone covering figures for conflicts from the 17th to 20th centuries.

Could i also recommend Joy of Six. Went last year and enjoyed it. Liked the number of Participation games and the Seminars.

It has become essential reading as part of starting up a new year for me. It all sounds good. See you at Salute and Joy of Six. / Per

Tanks, tanks and more tanks. Now 3rd Army can get on the move. WWI additions sound good. el Lawrence might be making an appearance in Arabia me thinks


Through the travail of the ages Midst the pomp and toil of war Have I fought and strove and perished Countless times upon this star.
So as through a glass and darkly The age long strife I see Where I fought in many guises, Many names but always me.
So forever in the future Shall I battle as of yore, Dying to be born a fighter But to die again once more.

I'll be overjoyed when the ECW resculpts come out.  Very much looking forward to the Polemos America ruleset and the WW2 vehicles too.

I am very excited about the FIW/AWI​ rules set and the ECW resulpts! I have been waiting on the ECW resculpts before I purchase any. Questions: are you planning on putting up examples of Prussian, French and "Rebel" (both Continental and Militia) Uniforms for AWI on the "Painting Guide" section? Or Uniforms for the Seven Years War, aka FIW in the US? No pressure, just curious!

Great news about WW1 and 2 especially Mesapotamia. Any plans to add more Ancients or Classical armies?

Fantastic news for the WWI Mesopotamia front. I think this will be the catalyst to drive me towards working on that  next for a scenario book for Great War Spearhead! Going to be a good year I think - thanks Peter!
