Sengoku 15mm Japanese Fantasy new releases April 2023

The largest range of 15mm scale Japanese Fantasy miniaturs in the world has expanded again now with two hundred and eleven poses. Sculpted by John Bell.  

This time we have swimming monsters and lanterns!  See the whole range on our WEBSITE and get into Sengoku Monster Hunter solo play or up to four players...your hunter vs the yokai!

Here are all the new codes from left to right.  As usual every miniature is a single in the range as well as collected in value packs and sets.  Shown with a typical Sengoku Human for scale.

SGF207 Hanzaki (Salamander)

SGF208 Swimming Hanzaki (Salamander)

SGF209 Toro (Stone Lantern)

SGF210 Toro II (Stone Lantern)

SGF211 Wani (Shark/Crocodile)

SGFP59 Hanzaki with Wani and Toro Lanterns Pack (5 pieces)  (Save 10%) 

If you wish to get in on making a name for yourself as a Guild Hunter in the excellent rules for one to four or solo play by Steve Danes then check out the Sengoku range where you will find two titles. Sengoku Monster Hunter the core game book with all you need to play and Rampage its expansion which adds a lot to the game.  Both are in print and cheaper as paid digital downloads.

Those looking to start in the game are recommended to purchase the core book as well as SGFP1 Sengoku Set 1 and SGFP33 Guild Hunters along with a pack of SGFP32 Sengoku Monster Hunter Tokens.  These codes give all you need to play and act as a jump off point too.

UMS04 Diamyo Dodging cyberpunk starter set released

New release!  The fourth complete little USEME starter set of booklet, sheets, miniatures, bases, dice with a saving baked in.  Joining UMS01 Danger on Outpost 32 (Grey Aliens vs Humans), UMS02 Ziggurat of Clem IV (Octopods vs Zidhe) and UMS03 Compound Interest (Cultists vs Post Apoc Warriors) we have a cyberpunk entry which sees Corporate Ashigaru facing up against the militarised police of Security Force Alpha.  See the new and these plus all sixteen of the USEME titles in print and digital download on the WEBSITE.

“The Wandsworth Zone is a part of Neo-London where few go willingly and fewer still survive any length of time there. During the uprising of ‘39 several biophage and radsick weapons were deployed and the zone is now a low toxic rubble strewn mess. In other words a perfect place to hide out and to hide things in. This was the case for Akaro Tamahachi Cyber Diamyo of the Lotus Free Lance ronin corporation.

During an aggressive take over what was left of the Lotus Free Lance fled the Tokyo Yokahama Combine for new lands. Opportunity abounds in Neo-London but there is a problem which Tamahatchi must deal with. His past. Due to the efforts of Cyber Assassin ‘Kitty’ Nagamo who very nearly managed to kill the Diamyo the authorities are now on the trail of the Lotus Free Lance. While Kitty has not travelled around the world to join the Police effort to deal with the new criminals she has revealed his past into the net and now its a race to see who gets to it first. The Lotus Free have installed themselves in the Wandsworth Zone and know that the militarised Metropolitan Police are on their way.

There is a hard point data terminal which contains Tamahatchi’s past wrong doings to which access must be blocked. The lair newly set up by the Lotus Free might be found and an escape carried out. Lastly one of the few still operating trains in the Zone will be highjacked before crashing and a final showdown undertaken. All under a sky riddled with data corruption and endless fog and rain. Now is the time for action!"

Stone Cold Lead paints the classic Asgard D6 Dragon Lizard Juggernaut

It is my pleasure to present the master grade brush work of Simon over at Stone Cold Lead Figure Painting. You can find him on Facebook and Instragram and he is for hire if you wish to contact and ask his availability. He recently painted up the mighty restored 1982 classic in metal D6 Dragon Lizard Juggernaut. Here we give you the resultant lovely pictures which on our blog if you click on them they will become much larger. 

 

 

The Juggernaut supplied in metal in two pieces (body and tail) standing 50mm tall and 110mm total length. Also supplied a third piece a Great Sword which can be left off or indeed put in the hand. Great for any scale. Sculpted by Nick Bibby. 

 

Above is a picture for scale next to one of our 28mm Crystal Elves. As you can see it is a big metal model (the largest single piece casting we made currently) and this Pike Elf will have some problems! 

 

Alternative Armies in 2023 is currently well underway in restoring Asgard's classic 1980's fantasy ranges. We have already done most of the science fiction and are currently in the FM series of fantasy monsters and creatures. We have also sectioned off Nick Bibby sculpts due to request and there is the mighty Dragon too. Here is a list of the ranges on the website. 

 

NB2 The Dragon

Nick Bibby Asgard

Asgard Fantasy Ranges

Jez Goodwin Barbarians

Tabletop Games and Asgard Science Fiction

Space Marines and Adventurers

The Torture Chamber Range (adult themes)

Monday is the day...

We have been quiet this week and there is a reason for this.  We are drawing breath and getting ready for the Spring Mega Event 2023 at Alternative Armies.  This short message is simply to tell you that the event will begin in four days time on Monday 27th March.  

The event will run for six weeks and on top of more than twenty new releases which will gradually get their news during the event (though all will be on the site from the start) a blanket 20% automatic discount at checkout will apply to all orders and you will get the free AS016 Warbot for any scale worth 10GBP included in package too.

We are at 65% of the limited run in metal of NB2 Dragon 

see it and the articles on this 80's classic on the Website.

The return of our largest model ever has been well met.  Flintloque Fans are enjoying a bit of Coaching!  See it and its variants and free booklet on the Website.

So time to have a browse and think about the spring campaign season and what you have planned or desired for armies and projects among the thousands of miniatures on our website.

We will see you on Monday 27th with all the details of the event but for the moment we will let you know that the blanket 20% automatic discount is now active (we are always fair) at checkout.

Thank you.
