Would love to get into this period in 10mm.

We've had a few requests for whole new ranges, I'll add this one to the list.

OK so the Yom Kippur War did not wet the taste buds. How about the Korean War, basically WW2 with the British and Australians using the best tank of the age, the Centurian. Hords of Chinese. Yanks in WW2 kit? (in 10mm who cares) plus the E8 Sherman, the Chaffee etc. Plus early jets along with piston engined aircraft. I would say that Pendraken has about 75% of what's required already for the ground forces.

Korean War long overdue, though there is a range by Kallistra if you don't mind their looming a bit over your Japanese.

Now you have REALLY gone and done it.  FSN will so excited we will not shut him up for weeks or months, as he loving describes every bloomin nut and bolt on the MK3.   As for the Centurion in action, he has probably got pet names for each and every one of them  ;D

that's because I'm tied to the casting machine and mould press :'(

Its good because I picked up the chaffee at the weekend from Martin along with other mouth watering goodies, and a good luck at the master drawings for the next range of vehicles WOW :-[

I'm being really good and quiet.  O:-). The Darker Lord himself has promised me some Chinese infantry to run over with my Centurion Mk3's, and I'm being really, really patient.

I think this depends on how long really really ' is.  Could be 6 months, could be 48 hours
If I were creating Pendraken I wouldn't mess about with Romans and  Mongols  I would have started with Centurions , eight o'clock, Day One!
