51524 7th Chassuers de Mamaluk Elf Cavalry released for Flintloque!

Alternative Armies presents the second of two big releases for Flintloque and Slaughterloo for the month of October 2016 and our last for the month too.  Both are online now and today we focus upon the re-mastered and expanded in terms of its poses and now released are the fabulous 51524 7th Chassuers de Mamaluk de Aegypt cavalry for the Army of Armorica.  They fight in the sands of Aegypt but also in Catalucia following their Emperor.  Go HERE or read on.

51524 7th Chassuers de Mamaluk de Aegypt Elf Cavalry

In the wild fights at the feet of the Pryamids of Aegypt the Armee of Armorica faced savagery never seem before in the heroic charges of the Halfling Mamaluk Beys of Aegypt.  Though the Elves prevailed against the Halflings and then against the ranks of the Otharmann Empyre and its Janissaries the Emperor Mordred was so impressed with the Mamaluk that he ordered a regiment raised and outfitted in their dress.  Though no Halflings serve in the 7th their savage attitude is very much present.  Having returned to Urop from Aegypt they are now in Catalucia fighting against the Orcs of Albion where their partially curved swords are wielded with a skill that puts any Orc Dragoon to shame.  They are superb light cavalry.  Small in number they are rightly feared...

These miniatures are 28mm scale white metal and are in the following poses. An officer armed with a High Elf Pistol, a musician with kettle drums, a standard bearer with eagle pole, a trooper with sword raised and a trooper with separate sword arm.  All are wearing Mamaluk gaudy uniform and are supplied with a horse richly attired in Aegpytian style.  You can choose from a skirmish pack of five cavalry with one of each pose, a unit of ten which contains five more mixed troopers and a trooper booster which has one random trooper. These options can also be selected as Pro-Painted and Based all using the drop down menu on the product page.  These miniatures are supplied with a Rectangle resin cartouche bases.  Manufactured in Scotland.  Go HERE.

There are a huge number of free PDF files for Flintloque and Slaughterloo plus the rest of our game systems and while we can send you a list of them to choose from if you email us on enquiries@alternative-armies.com and ask for them.

Alternative Armies has Daily Deals and a Weekly Flintloque Deal too.  Each day we have a different code from anywhere across our vast ranges at a sizeable discount off list price and this changes every twenty four hours.  Every week we offer a different core Flintloque / Slaughterloo code at 25% off normal prices and this covers all options; pack, unit, single trooper, pro-painted as well.  Click on the links to see what is current!

51528 Grenadiers du Perdue Elf Cavalry released for Flintloque

Alternative Armies presents the first of two big releases for Flintloque and Slaughterloo for the month of October 2016.  Both are online now but today we focus upon the re-mastered and expanded in terms of its poses and now released 51528 Grenadiers a Cheval du Perdue 'Lost Souls' Elf Cavalry. A heavy horse mounted unit for use in the Army of Armorica in the Witchlands and elsewhere on Valon.  Go HERE or read on.

51528 Grenadiers a Cheval du Perdue 'Lost Souls' Elf Cavalry

The Cheval du Perdue are know as 'The Lost Souls' due to their deep feeling that they will never again see the flower fields of Armorica.  They are among the best cavalry which the Emperor Mordred can call upon and he has many times.   As a result their commander Colonel Aubrey Beauchene is a loyal soldier but a sorrowful one and refers to his troopers as the Lost Souls.  Always on the gallop to bring their long straight swords down upon the enemy they are seldom given even a days rest.  They are now deep in the Witchlands covering the vast straggling retreat from Moskova. Their constant foes are the clouds of Zombiski Cossacks and skeletal cuirassiers who seek to kill the trudging foot soldiers for whom the Lost Souls are the only shield.  Will they ever make it home...

These miniatures are 28mm scale white metal and are in the following poses. An officer armed with a High Elf Pistol, a musician with bugle, a standard bearer with eagle pole, a trooper with sword raised and a trooper with separate sword arm.  All are wearing grenadier guard uniform and bearskin and are supplied with an Elf Witchlands Horse in campaign dress.  You can choose from a skirmish pack of five cavalry with one of each pose, a unit of ten which contains five more mixed troopers and a trooper booster which has one random trooper. These options can also be selected as Pro-Painted and Based all using the drop down menu on the product page.  These miniatures are supplied with 25mm square resin cartouche bases.  Manufactured in Scotland.  Go HERE.

There are a huge number of free PDF files for Flintloque and Slaughterloo plus the rest of our game systems and while we can send you a list of them to choose from if you email us on enquiries@alternative-armies.com and ask for them.

Alternative Armies has Daily Deals and a Weekly Flintloque Deal too.  Each day we have a different code from anywhere across our vast ranges at a sizeable discount off list price and this changes every twenty four hours.  Every week we offer a different core Flintloque / Slaughterloo code at 25% off normal prices and this covers all options; pack, unit, single trooper, pro-painted as well.  Click on the links to see what is current!

Lastly our second Flintloque release will be featured later this month and is online now 51524 7th Chassuers de Mamaluk Elf Cavalry.  We will also have big news on the whole range of Flintloque books too.  If you follow 15mm.co.uk or The Ion Age you might guess what that will be.

“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.”
