North Star - Newsletter

The latest newsletter from North Star Figures...

ChupacabraJackalopeWe are right in the middle of our Nickstarter campaign for the new Osprey book Dracula's America. If you join in now, you'll get the first free figure released by Spend Goal 1, the Jackalope. By joining in now, we'll get us closer to achieving the next free figure, the Chupacabra.
We are planning to ship all the Dracula's America Nickstarterorders in the second week of August, much earlier than the official release date.
Photo of Landsknechts Pikemen (plastic) (202016001)As you'd expect, we've got a great selection of the latest wargames 'stuff' to show you. A favourite of mine is Warlords new plastic Landsknechts. Why a favourite? I love the look of the Italian Wars, I've lots of the Artizan Design Landsknechts already painted, looking forward to adding a pike block or two of these to the armies.Photo of German Motorcycle R75 with Sidecar. (RU-280051)Another personal favourite this month are the plastic WW2 motorbikes from Rubicon Models. We had to withdraw our metal bikes a few years ago because they were a headache to cast, so we're hoping these will fill that gap in our WW2 range for you. Oh, and new plastic Jeeps!

What's next? We'll have new Artizan Design Soviets by the next newsletter. I was hoping to show you the new plastic Crewmen for October's Frostgrave: Ghost Archipelago release, but this newsletter is probably 2-3 days too early. Frostgrave: Ghost ArchipelagoIf you participate in Social Media, follow our Frostgrave Ghost Archipelago page, we'll post the first pictures there, otherwise look out for the next newsletter.
Lastly, if you are attending the Claymore show in Edinburgh on the 5th of August, look out for our figure ranges on the Ainsty Castings stand. If there's something specific you want to get, contact us or Andy at Ainsty, we can bring it along for you.

The Revolution Calls Comrade!The Soviet Union’s most powerful forces are stationed in East Germany and Czechoslovakia poised on the border with West Germany ready to strike at a moment’s notice. They are equipped with the very best Soviet industry has to offer, from sophisticated missile firing T-64 tanks and powerful T-72 tanks to versatile BMP infantry fighting vehicles, as well as plentiful BTR-60 armoured personnel carriers.
Supported by elite Afgansty Air Assault troops, powerful self-propelled artillery, and effective and numerous antitank and anti-aircraft weapons, there will be little that the corrupt capitalist armies of NATO can do to stop them. Soon the western workers will be free and the dawn of a new socialist age will begin.

The war Yuri had been training his men for had arrived, and though he had little doubt of the savage fighting to come, he was supremely confident in his men and their equipment. He signalled the advance and his T-64 tanks rolled forward.

Ruga-Ruga PublicationsWargames Rules by Author Chris Peers
author of Death in the Dark Continent
If you like Death in the Dark Continent, have a look at some of Chris Peers other rules where he uses the same system in other eras and theatres. We don't have many of these titles left, they are all coming to the end of their print runs, and we won't be reprinting.
Death in the Dark Continent
Wargaming in 19th Century Africa
Photo of Death in the Dark Continent. (BP1569)Death in the Dark Continent is a 176 page, full colour, hard back book that takes the reader deep into late 19th Century Africa.
At it's heart is a wargame, a game that allows the player to field armies of miniature figurines representing African Tribes, European Invaders and Native Kingdoms.
With an emphasis on the people of Africa as well as the Colonial Invaders, Death in the Dark Continent is a unique publication offering 80 different army lists covering all the vastly different forces in Sub-Saharan Africa 1870 to 1899.
Death in the Dark Continent also includes a historical background to the situation in Africa 1870-99, a who's who of the major players and a 'bonus' skirmish game.
