Asgard Orcs by Jes Goodwin restored part one OR1 to OR24

The time is here! Asked for and now on the website the first part of three of the total restoration of Jes Goodwin’s classic Orcs made for Asgard in the early 1980’s. Twenty four single miniatures and a set with a good saving too. 

 

 

Painted by Studio Maxi with hand painted shields in the style that such superb miniatures deserve we present OR1 to OR24. Big and brutal Great Orcs, nimble Orc Scouts, Cave Orcs, Warriors and loathsome Horde Orcs. So much attitude and style in every one of them. Here are front, side and rear pictures. 

 

These Orcs work really well in 28mm scale. Great for any system. 

 

 

Above examples of the different sizes of Orcs and a scale line up with a Fantasy Warlord Human Soldier, a Crystal Elf Warrior and one of Jes Goodwin’s own Dwarf Warriors. 

 

 

Some of the finest Dwarfs of the 1980’s also by Jes Goodwin. Singles and a full set with saving. 

 

 

Creatures of Chaos! Some very odd miniatures here as singles and a saver set sculpted in the 1980’s by Nick Bibby, Jes Goodwin and John Blanche. 

 

Alternative Armies is committed to restoring all that we can of the Asgard ranges and Tabletop Miniature ranges too. We have been at this for several years now and we expect it to take further years but we want to thank all of you for your support and kind words in this mighty project. Part Two and Part Three the final part of the Orc range will appear later in 2024.

BR042 Erzherzog 6mm Heavy Tank new by Bradley Miniatures

The forty second pack in the great Bradley Miniatures 6mm Range is now on the website.  Remember to check out the Bradley Miniatures 15mm Range for larger versions of some of their vehicles.  Say hello to the thick armoured beast that is the Erzherzog!

The Erzherzog (meaning 'archduke' in German), is a large, heavily armed and armored vehicle commonly found in the armored retinues of the Houses Karl. It is used as a breakthrough tank to smash enemy lines. To achieve the high performance required by its mission profile, the Erzherzog is powered by a powerful archite reactor, allowing it to press an attack for days without refuelling, so long as its ammunition supplies last. The downside is that, while the vehicle itself is not prohibitively expensive to produce, refined archite crystal is a rare and prized resource. Most commanders carefully conserve their precious supplies of archite fuel for these pivotal assaults, and it is rare to see Erzherzogs fighting on the frontlines with more common troops.

BR042 Erzherog Heavy Tank:  This 6mm scale metal vehicle comes in a pack of three with three different hulls or choice of singles on the website where you can select which turret you want from the three.  Each vehicle is 27mm long, 16mm wide and 13mm tall (with turret).  Supplied unpainted and requires assembly.

The range contains a wide array of choices of infantry, power armoured infantry, bikes, light vehicles, medium and heavy vehicles as well as skimmers a mighty Dropship plus Mecha and walkers such as BR006 Tiger Combat Walker above and the BR026 Lynx Scout Walker below.  

Good for any game system.

Check out UM016 USEME 6mm Science Fiction written by Vic Dobson which gives fast play and easy to learn rules including solo play to use with any range of miniatures including Bradley’s.  In pocket sized Print and as a Digital Download too.

Our 6mm Terrain Range gives you twenty eight different desert buildings as well as bundles and saver sets too.

VLE16 Nikita Hedloski very limited edition released for Flintloque

“In the service of the Dark Czar death is a certainty for all. In fact most are dead before coming into his service by courtesy of the Graviski Re-animator crew. Zombies rot away and become skeletons before crumbling to snow pattered dust. The loss of a head is the end in all cases...but not quite. Something of an oddity even among the Undead is Nikita Hedloski who has lost his noggin but keeps on going. Attached to the 9th Corpseov Fusiliers he aids in command.” 

 

We are delighted to present the sixteenth very limited edition code for Flintloque and Slaughterloo. Our final release in the Spring Mega Event 2024 for the World of Valon. Very Limited means the code has 250 numbered packs produced and supplied numbered before the mold is destroyed and it is gone forever. It joins our range of Limited Editions. 

 

 

VLE16 Nikita Hedloski Zombie NCO: This code contains three metal miniatures in 28mm scale. The same character on foot and mounted on a skeletal horse and is supplied with resin cartouche bases. Sculpted by Nikki Chatwin. It has rules for Flintloque and Slaughterloo on its page of the website. 

 

Add to your Undead of the Witchlands forces!

Halcyon Miniatures releases set two as singles and value set

The boutique miniature range which came to Alternative Armies this year now makes its second round of releases! Halcyon Miniatures is manufactured by us in agreement with its Nottingham based sculptor. This second round joins the first in 28mm scale metal science fiction. 

 

Following up on the Storm Troopers, Psi-Operative and others we have Assault Infantry with Shields plus their Commissar and the chainsaw wielding Priest of Truth. Useful in any game system. 

 

All miniatures in this range are ‘tabbed’ meaning they use a slot base. Extra value is given by us in that we supply a resin circular slot base free with every figure purchased from Halcyon. These are as shown in the painted examples and are 59034 Wide Slot Base. 

 

Above is a scale line up featuring Alternia Cyberpunk, the Commissar of Truth, the (free until 9th May in all orders automatically) War Bot II and the Priest of Truth. As you can see they match up well. Every miniature in the Halcyon Range comes as a single with its free base but there are now also two set packs which contain each round of miniatures with a built in saving. 

 

From the dawn of the golden age the classic Asgard Space Marines. Returned to the world with care these miniatures are singles and a value set of all with saving. Despite being more than four decades ago in the design they are timeless and great for any system.

New scatter scenics for Erin Celtic Myth 28mm Range

“The landscape of Ireland is vital to its mythology from the smallest streams to the largest forest and hill. The land is Erin and Erin is the land.  Over millennia the Peoples and Gods who have walked, breathed and died upon this land which is Erin have left something of themselves behind.  Thus is the land covered in markers of conflict and of the past and the dead all lending themselves to the magic that is Erin. Such monuments, markers, stones and more can all influence the journey of a great Hero of Ireland.” - From Erin the game of Celtic Myth (2005)

Three new scatter terrain models are now in the Erin Celtic Myth range for your collecting.  The first of what will become many these items populate your table or your dioramas or even the bases of such monsters as Morc of Chicol or Culach the Lord of the Fomorians.  They have, as with EVERY other code in the range, been added to the All of Erin Bundle which gives you everything in the range with a 5% saving built in.

New codes:

CM32-01 Celtic Stone with Skulls

CM32-02 Celtic Stone with Weapons

CM32-03 Trio of Celtic Stones

These will work excellently with the warbands of Erin be they Fomorian, Sidhe, Firbolg or Milesian; pre-made with a saving built in.  All on the Erin Range page.

The Skull Heap is a gruesome piece for your table and features in our Undead Legions Fantasy Range too.

If you wish to get all there is for this range you can with the All of Erin Bundle which has 5% off and during the Spring Mega Event another 20% off at checkout too.  Such value!

We have the 2005 Erin game book as a digital paid download.  We are working on a new edition but it is a long, long way off being ready as all the new miniature releases are working towards it.  Do not fret though as this 108 page download title will still be valid for your miniatures when it arrives.  Alternative Armies never outlaws previous versions of titles.
