North Star Newsletter

This is your last week to pre-order the latest Frostgrave expansion 'into the Breeding Pits'...there's some other release news as well...

Welcome to North Star's 96th Newsletter

We are now into the last week of the Frostgrave, Into The Breeding Pits, Gnickstarter pre-order program. The spend goals have released a great set of free figures, joining in now will probably release one more before the 4th of July, the last day of the program. We've added pictures of the new figures in this release, like the free Barbarian Chief allLevel 4+ participants will be getting free. Designed by Mark Copplestone, this figure is a 'taster' of the 4th Frostgrave book due out in November,  Forgotten Pacts.

There is a nice selection of new product to show you this newsletter as well. We've something different from Modiphius Entertainment. They have released a licensed Airfix wargame, something that is both new, yet harkens back to the roots of wargaming. Great stuff.

We've taken on a new range. From T. A Miniatures, this is a small but expanding range of decently priced Big Guns for the American Civil War.

This is a link to my new Facebook page that advertises a future Osprey Games/ North StarFigures release, Rogue Stars. Rogue Stars is aSci-Fi skirmish game due out in October. Follow the page today, but just to warn you I won't be adding much to it for a month or so.

Last newsletter I mentioned we'd have the plastic frame of Frostgrave Gnolls to show you. We can't do it here, but we've seen the test frame, all looks good, and as soon as we get an actual frame of Plastic Gnolls we'll post the picture on our Facebook page.

What else is coming up? We have Early Saxons from Crusader Miniatures to fight the Arthurian Sub-Romans, we have new character packs for the North West Frontier from Artizan Design and from North Star, we're working on some extra conversion packs for the plasticFrostgrave Soldiers.

Thanks for reading
