I applaud your ambitions and really, really hope you will get to a business model where you can reach a broader wargamer market. I have tried the current method of purchasing and it works fine. I am tempted by your new building(s).

I am curious of what you mean by "breadboard models". I suppose it is a cryptic translation of a Russian expression?

I really like the polish miniatures. It's a very original style but I like it.

The fortress is mind-blowing!

"breadboard models" - building type. What buildings are necessary for game?
The Asian buildings are interesting? A yurta, a minaret, a canopy of the dealer with melons and water-melons for example?

Um, all of them, please?

It was mentioned before... The building I miss most is a nice Orthodox rural church. The Hovel's model is good, but I really can't grow to like it much.

Well, there will be a church!

Remington · « **Reply #67 on:** November 19, 2010, 05:04:42 PM »

And I will be happy!

I agree I painted one up for a friend and I had to do a major conversion of the dome and ended up using one of the Ian Weekly dome from Trevor at Koritiani. But still it leaves something to be desired.

Yes, as you say, it is rather easy to get hold of goods from "strange" countries with even more "strange" languages.
Google is a great help.
I am sure, you will be happy with the two Polish books, good buys at a reasonable price, lots of pictures. And the one book in English.
You will have to wait 2-3 weeks until the books from Poland and the goods from Siberia reach you.
Nothing to do about that.
It is long way from the Chinese border to somewhere in Europe.
But the posts from Russia and Poland are reliable, so much I have learned.
Then you has to translate the Polish text, but again Google helps, even if it is not very good at Polish, especially when the Polish writer has a little special way of expressing himself. But with the text in the book about the Poznanians, the translation via Google goes rather well. And with a dictionary and when you has learned a few of the Polish military uniform terms, it goes rather easy.
Good luck with an interesting subject.
