Flower of Evil III free in orders and what is coming until March 10th

“It pulses beats a rhythm that makes it impossible to turn away.  As a seed it was given to me by a wrinkled hand and a whispered promise on foul breath. Now it has grown; the pot I planted it in burst apart as it spread.  To the meagre garden in arms I took it and in the shade it flourished and now...well now its pulse never leaves my soul. My neighbours I took to it and it fed.  My dog and my dear wife too as it grew.  Now it hungers and only I remain. It is growing dark and as I sink to my knees for its embrace I know that I have brought a greater good into this benighted world.” 

Until 10th March 2025 the brand new EH09 Flower of Evil III is added to every shipped out order placed with Alternative Armies automatically across the world.  You need do nothing but place an order which requires shipping and we will add it as it leaves us.  As many orders as you wish, plus you can order EH09 and one will still be put into your package free.  This is the third ‘flower’ in the series by popular request.  It works in any scale and for almost any setting.  See our Current and Formerly Free Codes Collected.

EH09 Flower of Evil III:  You can use it in 28mm in 15mm or 6mm as it sizes its threat to your other miniatures. Horror Games, Post Apocalyptic, Science Fiction, Plant Wars (they are Triffic!) and more. One piece resin miniature which is 28mm across and 10mm tall. Its mouth gapes and a tongue lolls. Other miniatures shown with it are for scale comparison only and not supplied. 

Above you can see how the Flower matches with the 28mm scale Erin Celtic Myth miniature and an Alternate Stars miniature too.  Then in 15mm scale a Star Merc from the HOF Range and a Wraith from the 15mm HOT Fantasy Range.  Lastly a stand of 6mm Infantry from the Bradley Miniatures Range.

Here are all three of our Flowers of Evil which are a fine addition to a garden of horrors. EH01 Flower of Evil and EH08 Flower of Evil II which are to be found in our Monsters and Creatures Range.


What is coming and happening before 10th March 2025

During the next month or so we have a lot happening.  Our Deals and Offers has been updated with some new treats added to the array there.  Among others are HOF27 Maginot Defence Tower and HOF156 Combat Saucer (Grey Aliens) plus 59520 Mortar in 28mm scale all at 25% off. These new will last until the end of this period.  

Our Bases for Miniatures Range will expand further with MDF sizes for HOTT 2nd Edition and its 15mm Armies.  We will have a new 28mm Ion Age release for the Grima Combat Robots following on the Portable Weapons and related.  

As Valentines Day comes we will have a weekend event to ‘Adore the Monster’ as another classic Asgard sculpt of the 1980’s by Nick Bibby is released with 50% off for four days.  

However the biggest news concerns the Dwarfish Hosts (DH) 28mm Fantasy Range.  Featuring sculptors Andy Cooper, Dave Gallagher, Mike Owen and others we are overhauling the whole range. Miniatures dating from 1987 to 2025. Brand new pictures will be joined by new molds and the expanded ability to purchase every miniature as a single and as packs with a saving baked in. Some 65 Dwarfs along with Halflings and Gnomes as well as Artillery and Monsters.  It shall culminate with a brand new release.   

As always each of these will get their own news and announcement.  Thanks for your time.
