In between moulding new Warband ranges, prepping new Romans and Gauls and packing/unpacking the van for shows, we've managed to get a few extra WWI goodies sorted out and ready for release. This small batch includes casualty markers for several of the nations (plus a generic one in cap) and also some items from the requests lists, such as the Belgian Lancers or Highlanders in glengarry.

This release had been delayed for a little while as we did some extra work on it, but it's here now! This is a massive piece of kit, nearly 300g worth of metal, and it looks excellent.
Coming in 5 pieces, you've got the train wagon itself, then two bogies, the gun barrel and a small winch for loading the ammo. Sizewise, the train wagon is 127mm long, with a 105mm long barrel. The bogey wheels are around 8mm apart which should be just about right for N-scale track. It doesn't come with any crew, but the BP55 code (Heavy Artillery crews) would suit fine and can be bought separately. We may look at adding some specific crewmen at some point in the future (without bases so they can stand on the train itself), but that'll depend on demand for them.
There was originally going to be a handrail to go down each side of the wagon, but the small diameter on the master sculpt was so fine that it wasn't viable to cast. It would be a fairly simple custom job though, a few small drill holes for some wire pins to go in, and then some wire linked across them would look just the part.
