Fomorian Axe Warriors new for 28mm Erin Celtic Mythology

“The true and original inhabitants of Erin are the Fomorians or the Fomori as they call themselves. Though other Peoples would debate this claim it is true that their remote ancestors battled the Partholan and were perhaps created by the Ancient Craft that raised Erin from the primordial black seas. The Fomori inhabit the cold seas and have many rocky enclaves of the coasts and roughly build stone fortifications inland; they even have a few Crystal Towers left from the times of Culach and his successors. 

A Fomori is a creature of the cold waters and though they stand from three feet to near twelve feet in height, with a normal Warrior being about six foot, they all have wet, scaly and blotched leathery skins.  The Sea Devils, or Helpers of the Fomori, are the smallest and weakest of their Peoples and the mighty Champions of the Fomori are the largest.  A typical Warrior will go to battle near naked armed with his teeth and sharp fingers carrying perhaps an iron sword or a spear and a poorly constructed shield. 

Lofty ideals form no part of the Fomori soul. They war for very simple reasons: conquest, cruelty, and avarice.  Their plans are evil and darkness embodied, none walk the coastal paths without one eye on the foaming waters of the cold sea.” - From Erin the game of Celtic Myth (2005) 

The original Fomorian Warriors (CM13 and CM16) in the Erin Celtic Myth range are 30 year old classics and have been remolded several times since.  We are proud today to announce the first of many coming new Fomorian Warriors!  Three new 28mm metal miniatures sculpted by Sam Croes. These three have as with EVERY other code in the range been added to the All of Erin Bundle which gives you everything in the range with a 5% saving built in.  The last new release of the Spring Mega Event 2025.

Spring Mega Event until 6th May at Alternative Armies.  Fifty new codes, blanket 20% auto off all orders and the current new free model in every order shipped.  See this ARTICLE for the full details or visit the WEBSITE and browse our thousands of choices in 28mm, 15mm, 6mm through sci-fi to fantasy and historical.

The new codes are:

CM33-01 Fomorian Warrior axe raised

CM33-02 Fomorian Warrior axe and shield

CM33-03 Fomorian Warrior two handed axe

The warriors of Fomor are bigger than Pucci but smaller than their Champions and Heroes.  They out bulk a Man but look puny next to Morc of Chicol the monster.

Every miniature in the range is a single and alongside this we have five different Warbands which give a force with a saving. A hero, champion and warriors.  Choose from Fomorian (above) or Pucci along with Sidhe, Firbolg and Milesian.

Thanks and may the gods be kind to you.

Skeletov Cossacks new for Flintloque and Slaughterloo

Like a cloud of glittering snowflakes the cossack riders of the Dark Czar hound the Grande Armee du Norde circling ever around its trudging troops.  Skeletons and Zombies drawn from all over the vastness of the Witchlands dressed in a multitude of colours and atop silent dead mounts. The Skeletov Cossacks are numerous and remorseless on the battlefield sweeping in on isolated groups and putting them to the sword.  They are hunters and chasers. 

New releases for Flintloque and Slaughterloo who take the side of the Undead of the Witchlands.  The new Skeletal Cossacks follow up on the Moskova Volunteers expanding the ranks as we move towards an entire new division of the dead to oppose the Emperor Mordred and his Elves.

55524 Skeletov Cossacks:  This code contains five different 28mm scale metal Skeletal riders and five Skeletal Horses.  Dressed in robes these Cossacks of the Donne are armed with curved sabres with bone hilts.  An officer with pistol, musician with horn, standard bearer with pole and two poses of trooper.  The horses are supplied with two pieces (55524H) easily assembled. As with all larger codes you can choose from the set of five riders with five horses or a unit of ten with a saving or a single pose with horse. Supplied with our resin cartouche style bases.

A horse made of nothing but animated bone? Indeed.  You can purchase 55524H Skeletal Horse (as used by 55524) on its own.  A two part metal miniature of two halves which fit together giving a hollow rib cage. Saddled and will fit most Human sized horse riders. Now in our Battlefield Bits Range with many other mounts and other useful things.

An article will come in late May 2025 which will give Flintloque and Slaughterloo game rules for these new cavalry of the Dark Czar.  It will also feature a Flintloque scenario set in the Witchlands which sees a patrol of Elf Dragoons ambushed by Skeletov Cossacks.  This will be a free article and download.

Get started with Flintloque or expand your collection with characters using 5024 Escape the Dark Czar beginners set which comes with rules and scenarios booklet as well as ten resin miniatures with bases and dice.  An ideal core to start you.

Here is a line up of a 55508 Zombie Line Infantry with musket next to a new Skeletal Cossack and one of the mounted Zombie Cuirassiers from 5024.

The 'volunteers' of the charnel city of Moskova and other places of the Witchlands. Often effective when used en-masse the Skeletons of the Moskova Volunteers are poor troops but they are effective against lesser enemies such as Militia or Landwehr.  Choose from packs 55028,55029,55030,55031 and 55032 (with single choices within them) or 55523 Moskova Volunteers a mighty 28 miniature unit with saving.

Malig Gun Team and Grima Controller Team new 28mm Ion Age

“The feral hatred the Maligs have for our combat robots is something to behold.  A Goblinoid must know; must realise, that it is a machine they are facing and so it is incapable or malice or returning their enmity.  Even so I have seen them try to stab, hack and saw at a Grima in hand to hand combat in the way they tackle a man. With venom.  Is it their nature?  Or is it something the Khanate have done to them?” - Major Kal Winter, 873rd Regiment of Prydia.  4346IC.

The last new 28mm and Ion Age releases of the Spring Mega Event 2025 are here!  As asked for by IonFans a Malig Goblin Gun Team and a secondary gun team for the Planetary Militia and Combat Robots.  These follow up on the new 28mm scale Retained Bike and Bike Base from the start of April.

Easter ‘Bunny’...Halcyon Miniatures presents the mighty Gnawbuck Mutagen!

 

Created in the bio labs of Xarka Corp and then force grown with mutagenic injections the Gnawbuck is now marketed as a military grade expendable urban 'pacification' asset. Early trials have gone...well... 

It's Easter and for its weekend we present a mighty new code from Halycon Miniatures which is cute in a ‘really terrifying’ sort of a way. The Gnawbuck Mutagen is here!  Added to the recently Warlouse Cavalry as well as the sci-fi infantry and others in this 28mm range.

Spring Mega Event until 6th May at Alternative Armies.  Fifty new codes, blanket 20% auto off all orders and the current new free model in every order shipped.  See this ARTICLE for the full details or visit the WEBSITE and browse our thousands of choices in 28mm, 15mm, 6mm through sci-fi to fantasy and historical.

HAL042 Gnawbuck Mutagen:  One metal and resin kit.  You can assemble the supplied ten pieces into a 'rabbit' variant or a 'rat' variant of a heavily muscled behemoth. It is 50mm tall, 65mm wide and 50mm deep.  Shown on a 75mm round base (not included).  We show BOTH variants built and painted but ONE kit with all pieces is supplied; you will have parts for your bits box left over.

Will you make a Rabbit or a Rat?  Perhaps something else by assembling the parts differently...

Works in two scales shown with HAL015 Priest of Truth in 28mm by Halcyon and HOF132 SFA Scout Team (officer) from the HOF Range in 15mm scale.

What can you fight a giant mutated Rabbit with? Why a flock of mutated Chicken of course!  Check out the Grinning Skull Range for the fearsome Cluckkatrix as well as Cluck infantry...among a lot of rather odd feathery things.

Thanks for your time.
