New Miniatures Company for FIW
« on: April 08, 2009, 06:30:23 AM »
Great new miniatures company called Galloping Major Wargames.

Thus far they have 4 different packs of Mohawk Indians in 28mm.
Each pack has 6 figures for 8 pounds.  The sculpting looks like it will
fit right in with Perry and Conquest figures.





Up next are Hurons and French Militia.





I just ordered the 4 packs of Mohawks.  Every four packs you order, they give you a limited edition figure.  Also they posted a nice painting guide for the Mohawks.

Thanks for the pics, And I would be curious to hear your feedback on the minis, but you miss the bandwagon :  ;)

But between Colonial or Swashbuckling (sic), it's not so easy to classified FIW stuff though.

Are most people putting FIW stuff in the Swashbuckling forum then?

Generally speaking, yes, most people do, as Colonial Adventures is advertised as having a 19th/20th Century remit. But speaking as the Colonial moderator for a second, I have no objections if you prefer to post them here. I don't think it's worth us getting in a flap over the exact boundaries of our boards here, as this topic certainly could come under the heading of 'Colonial' without any trouble. It's not as if it's about space zombies or anything.  :)

Very nice, my friends and I were only last night discussing your fine new range of figures,and the question was posed what new figures you had coming out. You have just answered it for us. ;) Great stuff ;D
