These look excellent, they would be great additions to a TYW army.

Just curious why they are only available for a limited time though?

The French are the first set we will be producing for the Flint and Feather Contact 28mm Tabletop Skirmish game. Many of our customers have been waiting for these figures for some time so we are releasing one pack as a promotion and to provide these great customers with the ability to get some of the figures.

We will be running a Kickstarter for the game including a Rulebook, and figures for French, English and Dutch. So the figures will reappear at that time which will probably be next year before they are actually available.
Here are the figures that are available at this time.

We are trying to get thru our Black Sun Kickstarter first and then run into the Contact Kickstarter. The thinking here is that we will have our work set for the rest of the year that way. So I would suggest the fall at this point in time.
The rules have already been playtested. They are just getting finished up. The system works right into the Flint and Feather rule set but with enough differences to introduce the alternate style of fighting of the Europeans in the New World.
We are looking forward to seeing the completed Dutch and English, Bob has been researching the period extensively to give the figures the proper feel.

Flint & Feather: Contact is still my #1 most anticipated thing of 2019... Although my 'small project to get ready' looks like it'll be most of this years output at this rate!

I've ordered a pack of these. It should be low enough to slip by Customs, and their predatory chums in the Post Office. I really should be doing more Wyndot first though 

[Mitchelxen]

We will be releasing some of the Contact rules, in order to allow you all to play the French in Flint and Feather, as a PDF on the website, on or about June 24. Keep an eye out for that.
It will include a scenario, The French Attack the Iroquois. Some French soldiers support their Huron allies in an assault on an Iroquois village.

That sounds good in the fall.I'm cutting back my collecting big time as I'm retiring (hopefully) in less than 2 years.I actually had all the F&F figures 2-3 years ago but sold them and regretted it afterwoods. Now this is all I'll be collecting  .The europeans is what got me interested again.I don't game but hope to make a large diorama in my free time.I do have all the figures again and the  book too to help support the range and because it's a beautiful book

New book coming out in November. Hopefully it will focus on pre FIW period which I love but highly interested in 17th century also which hasn't been written about as much as the FIW period (1754-64).
