Avanpost 28mm Conquest of Siberia range.

Please let us know how you get on. I'd like a few TYW figures myself, but I have assumed that they wouldn't be available until after the end of hostilities in the Ukraine.

No worries.
I was thinking the same thing myself

Same issue with the Cossack sculpts posted elsewhere in this form.  Very nice, but likely not available for the foreseeable future.

Received an email from IL Minis today asking for my "wishlist".
I emailed them back with the details and I await developments

Thanks

[Armstrong47]

Thanks

No probs. I'll let you know what happens

[Armstrong47]

Not received any updates from IL Minis yet. I guess the situation in Crimea makes ordering figures from there very difficult. Hopefully I'll hear something soon.
Does anyone know of any books on Yermak's expedition into Siberia? I'm very interested to know what the indigenous population lived in,were there wooden buildings;with stockades etc,or would they have lived in yurts similar to The Mongols?
Any information or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Andy

Hi,
I know I've just been chatting to Oleg from Avanpost on FB.
The figures look amazing.
I've just emailed IL Miniatures to add the cavalry to my wishlist.

Hi guys,

Bonjour à tous

Mon anglais est horrible, donc j'écris ce post en Français.

J'ai déjà commandé à plusieurs reprises des figurines Avanpost auprès de Il.miniatures. je n'ai jamais eu de problème.
Ayant échangé un mail avec Ilya Branshteyn au début de l'aventure, je pense avoir compris, qu'il amassait les commandes Avanpost avant d'aller les chercher en Crimée.

Donc ne soyez pas étonné si vous devez attendre plusieurs mois  votre commande. Même pour la France, le délais moyen pour avoir votre commande est d'environ 2 à 3 mois maximum.

Concernant les commandes pour la Grande-Bretagne, je penses que c'est possible. Ci-dessous, je vous ai mis  un copié-collé de leurs expéditions et la patrie des Rosbeef y est indiquée...

Je dois dire que leurs figurines sont fantastiques, j'ai pu amasser une grosse quantité de Cuirassier et de Dragons, de la Guerre de 30 ans et les peindre est un régal.

J’espère avoir répondu à vos questionnements. Il ne vous reste plus  qu'à  faire exploser votre carte bancaire ...

Merci

My French is not great but from what you say . You have had no problem ordering from Il Miniatures but  that it takes a long time (some months) for the figures to arrive given their location(Crimea).

[Armstrong47]

Koroni,thanks very much for the info on the book,I'll Google it and see what turns up.
Gentilhomme,thank you for the shipping info,and Von Stroheim thank you for the translation.
I guess I'll just have to be patient regards the figures,and wait until Ilya is in a position to order more and ship them to the UK.

[Gentilhomme]

Bonsoir
For Mr. Von Stroheim and Armstrong Yes, that's exactly it.
Yes, the delays will be quite long before receiving your figurines .

Yes, the delays will be quite long before receiving your figurines .

Given the situation in that part of the world, delays are understandable
The figures are absolutely superb,and will fill a gap in my gaming that's been there for over 30 years,when I first read about Yermak's journey into Siberia in Philip Longworthy's "The Cossacks".

[Armstrong47]

Just received an email from Ilya at IL Miniatures,and a link to buy the Streltsy and foot Cossacks via eBay.
With shipping to the UK,the cost is just over £60.
I'm awaiting news of the availability of the Siberian Cavalry.

[Paul Richardson]

Good news.
