Title: Dayaks and Malays Falcon 15mm
Post by: OB on 27 January 2025, 06:18:41 PM

I was lucky enough to find some Falcon 15mm Dayaks and Malays for sale. They are long out of production. I have often fancied doing a “Flashman’s Lady” type game and so I snapped them up.  I’ll likely use TMWWBK or a variant. Anyhow, here are some pic’s. 


You can see more on my blog if it is of interest.

Check Eureka Miniatures for possible companions to those figures if you want to add.  And, huge IF here, if you can find any of the old London War Room ranges, also make good additions.

I do have a few Grumpy Miniatures from Eureka they fit very nicely.  I will look out for any London War Room. The Collection is done but there is always a place for interesting figures.

I bet those cute old school TV armchair general 15s would look good here too

Here’s the link for the figs, terrain, data, and rules for this conflict. It’s a great resource as well. I have played The Kris’s And The Flame rules about this period and really enjoyed it.

Thank you for sharing this. Looks fantastic.
I have been very sorely tempted, but have tried not to start a new period.
So very tempted.

Thanks very much I'm glad you enjoyed them.  It was a now or never purchase. Like you I'm avoiding new periods, or trying to. That said how often would the opportunity arrive to buy these figures? I plunged in.

Should you succumb the link earlier in this thread is well worth a look.

Oh, my.  I do believe I've found my long sought war canoes!  Been looking for years for something suitable in 15 mm.  Those TVAG 3D prints look to fill the bill nicely.

Seen here: https://thevirtualarmchairgeneral.com/511-Send-Gunboat-2.html (https://thevirtualarmchairgeneral.com/511-Send-Gunboat-2.html)

Not sure when they added the 3D printed ships.  Nice addition.

And order placed for some native war canoes!  I think my wallet is saying a pretty big Ouch lately.  :o. Ah, it's only money.  ;D

Lucky find on the Falcons!  Those look like they would be handy for a DBA army too, if more could be found.
 
Nice looking boats.
