While we're working on Kickstarter, not-Kickstarters, BKC-IV and more, we've still found a bit of time to tick off some of our Top 10 Requests!  This month we've had the designer working on a few revamps and requests so we'll have these moulded and ready to release soon.

First up we've got a couple of Marlburian revamps.  The current command, artillery crew and cuirassiers are older sculpts than the rest of the range so they've needed a bit of upgrading for a while now.  These new ones are much better sculpts and will match in with the other infantry/cavalry a lot better.

Next up we've got number 9 on the Top 10 requested items, with a new Vietnam radio op figure, along with a forward observer and medic to go with him!

And finally, number 5 on the Top 10 requested items is Pirates!  These are a bit of an experiment to see how much demand there is, as we know that a lot of people have asked about these over the years.  We've tried to do them so that they'll fit into any slave revolt / mutiny scenarios as well, to give them a bit of broader appeal.

We'll get these into some moulds and should have them ready for release in the New Year.

Some of those chaps with arquebuses could do as Landsknechts.

Pirates? Interesting. But, what's the one on the left holding in his right hand? And what's the one fourth from the left doing?

Cheers, M.

It'll be in the New Year I think, we've got the Indian Mutiny to get into moulds first so we'll squeeze these in before we hit the 1809 Naps moulding.

The left hand chap is the captain so that's his hat he's waving in the air.  The 4th chap is kneeling with his cutlass on the floor.

So when are you going to produce the naval gunners, truck guns, and a ship or two ?

No plans for ships, but we've got the naval guns in the SYW range already.  I'm wondering whether the SYW generic crewmen (trousers, shirt, no headgear) might be passable as a stand-in?

Honest opinion - with waistcoats and gaiters? No. The ideal would be to have specifically attired seamen. Sorry.   :(

(but the guns and existing crews can still currently be employed as fortress artillery  :-bd  )
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

I was thinking those guns but LOA24 and 25 for gunners.

But then I'm notoriously unfussed about the details of uniforms if everyone playing knows what's what.
