Polemos ACW Companion now available.

2024-02-17 00:00:00

Welcome to this week’s Baccus update, and is traditional, the first thing to do is to confirm this week’s order, which stands at #27889.   I will repeat the oft quoted statement that some orders in advance of this will be on their way to their lucky owners, and some before this will not go out until next week.    

We do have a new release this week, and it is another addition to our Polemos rules publications

Better slightly late than never

2024-02-11 00:00:00

Yes, it’s a couple of days late, but here is this week’s magic number, currently standing at order #27799.   As you can imagine, Lindy’s Super Sale has left us with a bit of a backlog of orders to clear through – if you though that it might be a good idea to take advantage of it, so did LOTS of others!   However, the casting team are chewing through this at a very high speed and we are making excellent progress.

Business in now back as usual and WW2 decals

2024-02-02 00:00:00

It’s back to normality at Baccus HQ as Lindy has vacated the Swivel Chair of Power and I have returned to the fray.   In an effort to restore normality, I will start with this week’s order number which stands at #27642.

The feeding frenzy which was Lindy’s Baccus Super Sale has run its course, but it has left us with a big clutch of orders to work through, so please bear with us as we work through them all.

Lindy's Baccus Super Sale has been extended!

2024-01-26 00:00:00

Hello All, Lindy here again.  I will start with this week’s order number, which currently stands at #27579.

Old Misery Guts is back running things next week, but I thought that I could leave you all with something  to cheer you and me up and give him indigestion.   Lots of you have been taking advantage of the Baccus Super Sale, but I have had a lot of emails complaining about the timing as payday for lots of folks is the end of the month.

Peter isn't here today..

2024-01-19 00:00:00

 

Hi Lindy here...

The magic number this week is 27530.

This is going to be short and sweet this week,  as I am going to be in the hot seat next week processing orders. Peter will still be here but he has a book to write and will be shut away in the office. That means… I am in charge!

So, I am going to say one word to you. One word that will have Peter shaking in his boots. One word that is NOT in Peter’s vocabulary. One word that has not been written in Baccus history.

'What is this word?',  I hear you say.

The first Magic Number of 2024

2024-01-14 00:00:00

Hello dear readers, and welcome to the first magic number of 2024, which currently stands at #27335.   And as it’s the first of the year, I will add the rider that some numbers prior to this won’t be processed until next week, and there may be a couple of lucky customers with later orders than this who will get their packages early.

Just prior to Christmas, I had to break the unfortunate news that an entire consignment of overseas orders had been lost by the carriers.  They’ve informed me that they  think that the 15kg box of 25 individual orders got lost behind the sofa, or the dog ate it, or there was a letter ‘R’ in the month, or something reasonable like that.   We are now well into the process of recasting and replacing the affected orders and will be sending them out over the next couple of week.  If you are affected by this please bear with us  - you will get your order and we are working hard to sort things out.

Tales of the missing Magi and a few predictions

2023-12-28 00:00:00

It is a little known fact that there were in fact FOUR magi who made the trip to Bethlehem.   The problem was that the fourth, who went under the less than magnificent name of F’tuth, while being pretty damn good at the old foretelling business was not that hot at basic navigation.   Instead of meeting up with his mates, Melchi, Caspo and Balts, he completely messed things up and headed north, forever to ride out of the story and the legends.   As a result, he was unable to hand over this important gift to the infant.  Debate has raged for centuries over the nature of this fourth gift.   As we all know, each gift; gold, frankincense and myrrh, had a symbolic significance.  What was destined to be added to them, but was never delivered?
