Mark got this period going by his original brilliance and energy. He could reinvigorate it single handedly by doing the same now....off to spin the prayer wheel even faster....

I've passed your message onto Mr Copplestone. Let's see what he says.It won't be the next stuff he does, he's planning that to be more Darkest Africa
Would love a command group of some sort for the tibetans, as well as some artillery... and ideally a pack of foot musketeers in different poses!
Perhaps some of the Freikorps and their allies who faced off against the Bolsheviks in 1919 - 1920 ? Tsuba's are really only applicable to the fighting inside Germany itself in 1919 - 1919, and most WW 1 figures are too heavily equipped. Could just be some of the personalities and more Freikorps specific units (like Baltic Landwehr cavalry).
Hi GuysHad a chat with Mr Copplestone and we're not going to like the news.He just can't face artistically going back to Back of Beyond.Firstly, he doesn't feel he makes figures in the same style anymore, due to age/ eyesight/ optimisers etc. He's going through the issues now making the new Darkest Africa figures.Secondly, in his words: When I first started making the BoB range there was hardly any information available and I felt a bit like a research pioneer and I filled in gaps with guesswork. Now on the other hand there are so many books and expert websites that I'm now very aware of all the mistakes in accuracy and if I were to revisit it I know I'd really want to remake the whole thing.
Disappointing news indeed! My apologies to all for starting this thread and getting hopes up. It seems the naysayers were right
