Pendraken's 2018 Releases!

[grizzlymc]

God
I wish you wouldn't show me pictures of your little tanks like that. They really are amazing.

Abrasive pads sounds like something Gaynor might use.

[Leon Pendraken]

Thanks, glad you like them!

After all of the GDPR emails, here's something a little bit more fun! We've just put the finishing touches to our WWI extension, adding new codes to the Middle East range as well as revamping some of the earlier packs and adding some handy officers and generals to some of the other nations!

This release should be a useful one for a variety of games and periods, basically anywhere that you'd have found wooden houses and fire!

There's two slightly different types in the pack and the chimneys are separate pieces so you can choose whether to put them in or not. The left-hand ruin measures 70x50mm, and the right-hand one is 75x50mm. The chimneys are 30mm tall.

Scenic Items & Terrain
Eastern Front - https://pendraken.co.uk/scenic-items-te ... ern-front/
SCN-EF08 Burnt out houses (x2) £5.00




These are based on a variety of period photos which show burnt out buildings like this with the chimney left intact. With the chimneys left off though, these could do service almost anywhere really.

The new releases continue apace with another new range online now!

The Risorgimento ('rising again') was a movement in the 19th Century aiming to unify the Italian states into a single Kingdom of Italy. After the Napoleonic Wars, rule of these states had been restored to Austria, a move opposed by many. After the failure of liberal and republican revolutions in 1848 (1st Italian War of Independence), leadership of the unification movement passed to Piedmont. With French help, the Piedmontese defeated the Austrians in 1859 (2nd Italian War of Independence) and united most of Italy under their rule by 1861. The annexation of Venetia in 1866 (3rd Italian War of Independence) and papal Rome in 1870 marked the final unification of Italy and hence the end of the Risorgimento period.

Our range covers all of the troop types across these wars, with infantry in tunic for the first two wars and in greatcoats for the later period. The grenadiers in bearskin can be used up to 1859 at which point they switched to the same uniform as the line infanty. Cavalry switched from lances to sabres and carbines over that same period.

We'd like to thank our friend Fabio in Italy for all of his help with this range, his reference material has been invaluable in getting the details right!

We've got some flags coming soon for these armies, so keep an eye out for those as well.

[Leon Pendraken]

We've been working on this range for quite some time now and we're finally ready to release them! This first batch covers all of the American and Chinese forces, with infantry, command, mortars and artillery crews for both nations. We'll have the British coming in the next 7-10 days and then the North and South Koreans following on before the end of the month hopefully. Once these are all available, we'll be looking at all of the artillery towards the end of the year. And don't forget that we've got most of the vehicles needed for this conflict already available here: https://pendraken.co.uk/modern/vehicles/

Phil's done a cracking job sculpting these and we'd also like to thank Sunray for all of his help and advice on this range.

In a slight change to the scheduled programming... we've got the South Koreans next!

The Brit Commando radio operator sustained a moulding injury so we've sent him off to the medic to get him fixed up. He'll be back with us next week and we'll get the British range ready for release next weekend instead. We didn't want to leave you hanging though, so we've bumped the South Koreans up the queue and here they are! As with the US and Chinese ranges released last week, we've got a nice selection of infantry here, along with mortars, command and artillery crews. Guns for the latter will be along later in the year.

Once again, our thanks go to Sunray for all of his help and advice on this range.
