Pikes, pikes and more pikes.

Hello All

We are setting off for the Colours show tomorrow, so the weekly update comes a day early.  As ever, we will start with the week’s order number, which is #32771.  

This week, we are mostly talking about pikes, muskets and arquebuses.

Yes, it’s inevitable, those Tariffs again, but there is some news about our next releases…

…so read on.

But first, as usual, we have this week’s magic order number which stands at #32739.

So, thosee USA Tariffs...

US Tariffs and Colours Wargames show

This week, we are mostly US-centred, but there is a section at the end of the post for UK residents do so keep reading.  But first, this week’s magic order number which stands at #32650.

We're Back and Paypal glitches

Hi All,

Lindy and I are back from our week away from the Leadface and are well on the way to catching up.   However, while we were away, our cart has developed a glitch affecting some Paypal payments for orders.

We are working to fix this, but if you do place an order with us an use Paypal, you may get an email from Paypal telling you that there has been an issue, and your order will show as 'Unpaid' in your account.  In fact, there has not been an issue - we have your order and payment has been made perfectly.   

We are combing through orders as they come in to rectify this, but if it happens overnight, we can't fix it until the next day.  In the words of the late, great Douglas Adam, 'DON'T PANIC'.   All will be well.

Many apologies for this.  Please bear with us while we sort things out.

Happy Yorkshire Day!

I know that the date on this posting doesn’t quite match up to the subject, but as I will be spending most of tomorrow in the Baccus van driving up to Scotland, the post has to go in a day early.  But first, the magic order number, which is #32551.

So, Happy Yorkshire Day one and all.   Greetings to all of those fortunate enough to have been born in, or are proud to reside in God’s Own County.   For everyone else?  Sorry, it must be really awful for you…

Just a quicky...

Hello all, a shorter update this week, as we working frantically to get orders out and restock our  show items as the Baccus stand suffered a major bout of pillaging and harrowing at JOS25.   First, as ever, is the magic number which stands at #32482.

JOS25, Lens and Claymore.

Lots to chat about today, but first, this week’s magic number which is #32425.

The Joy of Six is now a week behind us, but we at Baccus central are still recovering.  It’s been a real whirlwind of activity.  Many thanks to all those who turned up, played the games, visited the traders, asked the questions or just walked around and looked at the great games on show.   We’ve simply not had time to even consider putting a show report together, but there are already a few out there for you to look at:

JOS25 - The Yanks are coming! (At long last...)

This week’s update is a day earlier than usual, as form now on the Baccus team is working full on getting ready for this year’s Joy of Six show.

We’ll have lots of new releases at the show, and they’ll be listed below, but firstly an apology.  We pride ourselves on getting lots of painted examples of the new codes and new releases when they come out.   Well, the truth is that getting the Lens game completed in time has pretty well taken up all the time that would normally be spent on painting and photographing the new releases.  As a result, we’ve lots of ‘No image available’ markers for the time being.   We’ll now be working hard to rectify this. But enough of the excuses, what is coming to a Baccus trade stand near you?

It's nearly here!

Right now, I should be prattling on about something to do with the Joy of Six or our Lens demo game, or even some new releases.   Bust this week it's different. However, first we have the magic number, which this week stands at #32310.
