Review of 2022 New Releases, Restored Classics and Alternia mascot

In a first for Alternative Armies and by gamers request we present a summary review of this the year of 2022 which is now ending.  All of our new releases, restored classics and free monthly codes gathered and split by range and scale.  Frankly we were amazed as our small team here in Scotland had achieved so much that we ourselves did not remember a lot of it.  We reckon it to be:  62 new 28mm miniatures, 105 restored 28mm miniatures, 93 new 15mm miniatures, 6 new 15mm vehicles, 2 new 15mm mechs, 30 new 6mm sci-fi codes and scenics and two new USEME Titles as well as En Garde.

You can see most of these in NEW RELEASES on our website and until we re-open on 6th January 2023 there is an automatic 20% off all orders applied, no code needed, at checkout.  You get ALT012 Alternia the Gift Giver for free until new years day and then it will be the winner of the public vote EH03 Space Brains pack included for free in every package shipped out for the entire month.

2022 was the year of our mascot.  A lady called Alternia where she was given away freely each month in a different 28mm guise each of them themed and featuring our company arrowhead icon in some way.  Several thousand miniatures sent all over the world as a gift for your custom.  See each of the Alternia's great for any game system or collecting on the WEBSITE.  Highlander, Landsknecht, Erin, Easter, Future Warrior, The Ion Age, Black Powder, Beach Huntress, Steam Punk, The Witch, Cyberpunk and Gift Giver.
