Furioso 16th Century Renaissance rules reviewed in Vae Victis 136

Just arrived in the mail from France the latest issue of Vae Victis magazine (Number #136) which contains a very nice and positive review of our Furioso 16th century Renaissance wargame rules by Steve Danes.  Click on the picture below to see it in readable size.

My French is reasonable and I want to thank them for the review.  The rules work with 6mm, 15mm and 28mm miniatures.  We play in 15mm scale using the Altuos Range of miniatures.

If you are keen on the magazine go HERE and for the rules visit our website where it is in print and as a digital download too.

Excellent!

Ikwen Hardened Fighters released from Loud Ninja Games

You have been waiting. You have been asking. Now you can be getting! Brand new from Loud Ninja Games a new pack of Ikwen sculpted by Eli Arndt. Go HERE or read on for more. 

"The Ikwen are one side of an asymmetric war against a higher tech, invading enemy. They fight in a less organized, militia style, utilizing acquired weapons, not of their of own manufacture." 

RAP037 Ikwen Hardened Fighters 

Over a generation ago, the planet Kwiell was set upon by aliens bent on exploiting the natural resources of the planet. The planet’s native population, the Ikwen, found themselves suddenly enslaved and their society rocked as they were enslaved, put to work and in many cases hunted and killed. The Ikwen have spent decades in frustrated servitude to these invading overlords. We see them as very much freedom-fighting indigenous life forms, use them as alien invaders, allies, mercenaries or even lower tech indigenous forces for more organized warfare. This pack contains (6) six different 15mm scale white metal miniatures armed with a mix of blades and pistols. Excellent melee soldiers and Ikwen leaders. All miniatures are supplied unpainted and without bases. 4.00GBP. Go HERE.
