28mm Classic Human Knights and Horses Packs released!


As we enter the autumn season Alternative Armies is now into the re-mastering and re-releasing the next section of our huge classic high fantasy range.  Following up on the Classic Adventurers (CA codes) we now move onto the bigger and favourite Fell Lord (FL codes) section with the first half dozen pack codes.   Designed back in the 1990's by industry leading sculptors these miniatures are in white metal and suitable for any fantasy system.  Superb designs and concepts.  These can be purchased as six different packs or singles from those packs and also as horse and lance single cavalry poses too for the first time.  Go HERE and HERE or read on for details.  Remember we also have online the Classic Adventurers as well as Dwarves, Undead, Goblins and Orcs plus Barbarians and Monsters too.


“Fierce north men who fear not the wastes and the things that advance out of the snows. Courageous to the point of insanity and often taking on odds far in excess of any chance of victory the Berserkers are well deserved of their reputation.  Often they beat their shields to build the spirit and then cut themselves along their arms to raise the blood lust high.  Their brutal code makes them first into the din and last to shy at the spear point.”

“The tales of magic users tell you in the main of the good men and women who dip into the mysterious forces.  But let me tell you instead to fear the Lore Lords for they serve evil and it is to evil that the greatest of magical gifts are given over.  Orbs of raw energy and totems to allow the summoning of dark creatures.  This and more is to the Lore Lords while those who aid good are left with the scraps of light.  To magic you turn...then to evil you must turn.”

“The places to the East.  They are far off and filled with strange goings on and even stranger customs.  Best not to think of them my son except in the arts of war.  In their struggles with the Orcish Hordes and the whims of the Dragons too they have crafted a style of fighting from the back of swift horses.  Swirling in clouds of riders they use great bows to effect and then close for the spear and the sword as well to have their play upon the skulls of the savages.  At times we ask them for aid...but their great distance makes it impossible.”
