I can see them fighting Strigoi in the Balkans too! Dracula's Balkans anyone?

Yes that could be an interesting pulp scenario. Vampires are a Balkan myth and you can find legends of them  almost on all the Balkan countries. Even in Greece there are legends of vampires and there are names of places that are related with that . There is a small  island on Cyclades called βρουκολακονήσι literally vampires island, close to Santorini if I remember correctly, The same name is used for a beach in Lemnos island.

Dramalı Mahmud Pasha  is trying to escape from the ambush in the Dervenakia with a mace or a sword at hand . Old Man’s Creations presents the second miniature of the Ottomans’ range for the Greek War of Independence. Sculpted as usual from the talented mr. Stavros Zouliatis the miniature will be available  soon for pre order on the eshop  of the company.

I'd do Dramali with the mace myself. It would just look so different in a force of this time period.

That was my original choice , but I am going to include the sword arm option on the pack.  Actually maces were carried around at the time from Generals or Pashas on the Ottoman empire and on the Balkans. It was a sign of office something like a marshal's baton.

The empire strikes back, not the one from the known space opera franchise. The first sculpts of Ottoman empire irregular troops are here. Υou can use them to recreate battles of the Greek War of Independence .They can also be combined with the packs of the Greeks to recreate an Napoleonic era Ottoman army like the one that fought Napoleon in Egypt. Additional weapons options will be include on these two packs that are going to be OTT003 and OTT004 . Release date first half of May. Pre orders will start after 10th of April. Sculpted by mr Stavros Zouliatis as usual.
