Konflikt '47
Photo of Konflikt '47 (BP1541)Konflikt '47
Konflikt '47 is set in a world very much like ours. In fact, its history is indistinguishable from our own until 1943 when the Manhattan Project'stest of a prototype nuclear device opened a rift in the fabric of space. When the Fat Boy atomic bomb was dropped on Dresden on 12 March 1944, it created a second rift, and German scientists quickly set to work studying it. Both rifts began to relay signals from unknown sources.
 Both the US and Germany were reluctant to share these advances with their allies, and in May 1944, Stalin declared the US to be an enemy of the Motherland.
Fully compatible with the incredibly popular Bolt Action rules, this standalone rulebook takes the war to a completely new level. Players are given everything they need to field forces incorporating the incredible weapons and technologies made possible by the rift signals, and to engage in tabletop battles for supremacy and survival.

This is a 12 miniature set packed with pose options and fantastic detail.
The Numidians were from North Africa, around modern day Tunisia and Morocco. They were superb light cavalry and supplied large quantities of horsemen to their close neighbours the Carthaginians.
Numidian cavalry excelled in skirmishing, hit and run tactics. They would shower their enemy with javelin fire and run away to avoid contact and then wheel around again to pelt the enemy with yet more missiles. They were often used as scouts and in pitched battles would outflank the enemy and wait in ambush.
They fought brilliantly for Hannibal during the second Punic wars, being major factors in his defeats of the Romans at the Trebia, Lake Trasimene and Cannae and they were also responsible for beating the Romans in Spain at the battles of Castulo and Ilorici under their charismatic and brilliant chieftan Masinissa.

The PDF version of Open Combat, supplied to you on a Memory stick.
You can guide the ragtag remains of a Roman expeditionary force through barbarian territory, become a Saxon lord with his retinue as they face off against a local rival, or chart the story of a group of adventurers fighting for fortune and glory in a goblin-infested wilderness. It could be anything you wish to play out on the tabletop.
 
We are delighted to announce that later this year, in conjunction with Osprey Publishing, we will be releasing a range of Samurai figures to accompany their game 'Ronin'.
Photo of Ronin (BP1378)RoninSkirmish Wargaming in the Age of the Samurai
Ronin is a skirmish wargame set in late 16th century feudal Japan, and provides a historically accurate game with the flavour and excitement of such Akira Kurosawa films as Seven Samurai and Yojimbo. Players choose a force from one of several varied factions, each with unique character options, from reliable samurai and ashigaru to fearless sohei warrior monks and desperate bandits. They may also recruit swords-for-hire to supplement their forces – masterless ronin, wandering martial arts masters and secretive ninja will lend their skills to any commander who can afford them.
