I also somehow acquired the new 18mm Mercians from Wiglaf Miniatures via Northstar.
https://www.northstarfigures.com/list.p ... 306&page=1 Gorgeous little sculptures from Mark Copplestone for Dan Mersey's boutique company. They're a bit bigger that the Peter Pig Vikings that I already possess but will be acceptable on the same table. (So that means that it's NOT a new period!!
). I'm looking forward to the other promised 'factions' (tribes? bands? clans? kingdoms?).
Dan has written some suitable rules for the period too.

Some RSM cossacks
and some PSC Soviet infantry. Which are more difficult to get these days, seems like they've stopped producing them. Not available directly.

I've sent for some MDF carts and stuff. And I'm waiting on a delivery of Bicorne ECW types for Ayton 2023.

Bought some Footsore Normans, a few vikings and more Baron's war figures a few days ago
Yesterday I decided I would get some Groping beast Arab command to go with their plastics - postage was 15GBP on a 25GBP order

I remember those days. I do not miss them. Plus import duties

But, think how cheap it will be when you pick them up in person. When will that be?

VB - have you tried War & Peace Games in Oz?
https://www.warandpeacegames.com.au/default.asp They carry the Groping Beast ranges (& have Arabs in stock
https://www.warandpeacegames.com.au/Arm ... s/3305.htm ) & prices are generally equivalent to the UK cost. I've had excellent service from them in the past. Not sure about postal costs to En Zed.

Good to know. Fingers crossed then.
