Hi Folks

Lots of you have been asking, and they are on the way to us next week.

Can’t believe that I actually see this happen!  :-* Now please dont take another 7(?) years for the heroes!

They look pretty awesome btw. I’ll surely get them.

These are going to fit so well into my 15mm Frostgrave.

Great stuff, thanks Nick, order incoming! Perfect timing as I’m working on terrain boards for 15mm Hyboria right now.

I almost hate to ask, but just out of interest - any sniff of anything else in the offing from Mr C for this range of superlative tiny people?

More 15mm.
I don't know is the honest truth.

The Romans will never happen, but the Ice Tribe may get expanded.

 Great to see another pack out now.Hope there are more to follow from Mark.

Although disappointing this is great news - just 3 packs in a range (melee troops, ranged troops and command) makes them infinitely more useful than without the command. Shame about the romans mind.

The new pack is a must buy! Been so long since I painted my Picts though God knows what paints I used.
Can understand not doing the Romans but there are some glaring gaps in the range which would be amazing to see filled.

I currently have 4 x HoTT armies of Northlanders (96 pts). Barbarians and Ice Tribes are also being worked on. Dwarf allies for the Northlanders will follow (did I mention that I like to play Big HoTT?), then a few Picts. I really wanted to make a Roman force of a size to match the Nothlanders. Perhaps some offerings to the Old Gods??

Any word on if there'll ever be any more 28mm offerings from Mark?

Maybe something from Xyston for the Romans? Close in terms of scale and style.

Yeah, although I'd still need to work out some more 'fantasy' elements for it.

Battle Valor's Legians are fantasy romans and should scale well.

Cheers,

Ooh that’s a good shout - aren’t they massive?

Well, I don't own any myself (yet! I backed the last kickstarter) but from what I could find they do tend to be a bit beefier but not overly so.
Here's a link to a blogg that shows some of their rangers next to the copplestone barbarians.

No Legians but have loads of Frigians. They look a bit chunky but not overly so when painted.
They have an agent in UK.
