Three more classic codes added to the TOR Chamber range

Alternative Armies has been busy with many things this spring and bubbling away in the background has been the re-molding and readying of more classic codes from the 1980's Torture Chamber range in 25mm to 28mm scale.  As out last news for May we present to you three more codes returned to life meaning that we now have fifteen packs back in the world.  Great for dioramas, for dungeon crawl, for wargaming in fantasy and historical settings.  

The Pillory, the Stocks and the Ducking Stool join such things as the High Inquisitor, the Rack, the Snake Pit and slave girls.  Please note that this classic range contains items of an adult nature and while all images on our public posts and emails are censored the images on the site itself beyond initial image are not censored.  Go HERE.

Originating with Tabletop Games in the 1980's many have taken inspiration from these scenics over the years.

Huge new Dark Elf releases for Flintloque and Slaughterloo

Hinted at and asked about it is now time for Alternative Armies to present the Regimenta del Sanna Annie a series of new packs and sets for the Dark Elf Army of Catalucia.  An entire line infantry unit plus skirmish packs and single characters too as well as a box set of all nineteen different poses with an insert.  May 2019's releases for Flintloque the Skirmish and Slaughterloo the game of Mass Battle.  Sculpted by Elton Waters, studio set painted by Mark Taylor and with the two page insert also here to download for free we hope you enjoy the travelling circus!  Go HERE or read on for more.

REGIMENTA DEL SANNA ANNIE

Something of a legend in Southern Catalucia is the once magnificent Regimenta Del Sanna Annie, an ancient and venerable regiment of Grenadier quality troops in the personal service of Fernando.  Since those glory days the ‘Sannie’ as the Orcs call the battalions has taken part in many battles and survived them all almost intact.  Accompanied by a priest on a donkey and gaudy officers along with a veritable train of women and hangers on the Regimenta is a spectacle on the move.  It is organised like any other Dark Elf Line battalion with the same equipment.  The Regimenta may only serve in a non-Ferach Division or force.

If you are playing in Catalucia or Al-Garvey with the Orcs of Albion against the Ferach Elves of the Emperor Mordred then there is something here for you.  If you are playing in the Witchlands then some of the characters are very useful as are the infantry if you use them as turncoats in the pay of Armorica just like the Al-Garvey Ferach Legion Goblins.

Fourteen 15mm Urban Gangers released as pack and singles in HOF Range

“Like minded individuals often gather together for mutual defence of themselves and their turf. It's a strategy that humanity has employed from the early days of recorded history to the industrial work gangs in the mega cities of earth and Alpha Centuari. However colonial gangs are more often than not the first line of defence in case of siege and invasion as they are farmers and families who have gathered together to protect their holdings and claims from aggression. Once a colony has developed beyond a few small farms and a port is established, the gangs still exist, levying control on areas they claimed at the start of the landing. However other inhabitants may take offense to this and start their own gangs to take back these holdings. At other times they are sprung up from perpetually bored teenagers with little common sense and an eye for violence. On occasion they may even become notorious criminals or just a more militant version of the Planet Defence Forces. Their colours are as numerous as they have numbers, and are often used as a conscript force if things do get dire. Lightly armoured but heavily armed with cheap rec-guns and knowledge, their hold on their turf is absolute and can spring ambushes and raid supply convoys before melting back into spider holes to lick their wounds and strike again later. Their morale is often tied to their leader through a cult of personality, if he dies, they will run. But as most find out, they will be back in greater numbers and with more weapons to settle the score. Colonial life is harsh and brutal enough as it is, but these souls have opted for a more difficult life and will carve out their name and colours... or die trying.” 

The brand new release for May 2019 into the HOF 15mm Science Fiction range is a mega pack of 15mm Gangers great for any campaign and setting. Concept by Fred Richards and sculpted by the talented Sean Bullough this pack can be had with all fourteen poses or select poses from it. Above is some setting for these vicious thugs and they are great opponents for your Security Force Alpha patrols or even as Betrayers slaved to the Shia Khan in games of Patrol Angis too. Go HERE for the range or read on for more. 

HOF136 Urban Gang Conscripts 

This pack contains fourteen different 15mm scale white metal one piece miniatures sculpted by Sean Bullough. Human gang members both male and female great for any number of present day or near future campaigns. Our painted set is in the colours of The Wolverines Gang a blight on the honest citizens of Alpha Centauri city seven. You can see that the poses each have a letter next to them. This means you can select single poses in any quantity you wish. These are larger sized 15mm scale miniatures approx 14mm kneeling up to 20mm standing (pose M).
