It has been surprisingly well received, and is selling very well.  If people hadn't been as interested, we probably wouldn't have expanded it this far.  Probably less surprisingly is the amount of Spanish gamers who have been getting into it.

I see.
I must say I am impressed by the quality and subtlety of SCW figs design. Isnt the sculptor the same who made SYW range? You lucky SCW lovers! :)

Yep.  He did the SYW/WSS ranges, plus the remodelled FPW, the Pacific WWII stuff, the SCW, and is currently working on the Napoleonics and also the Schleswig Holstein range.  We'll be seeing him on Sunday at SELWG.

Don't worry, we'll tie him down for a couple of hours and give him the Request Lists...

I always wondered about the amount of Zulu miniatures available.  A lot of people must be playing that.  On the other hand, one can never have enough amazones.

Paint it Pink

Never played Napoleonics, unless Franco-Prussian war counts, and even then only one game of that? Just not into the whole uniform porn thing that most players seem to fetishize.

Ancients, played a few games in my time, but missing the things that interest me, namely vehicles and guns.

WW1 surprisingly interesting period, especially now with the Mud & Blood rules.

SCW just has all the best elements of WW2 without the uber German thing going for it. I quite like the whole field expedient AFV idea.

This is probably why I also like AK47 African and Middle East wars with the proliferation of "technicals", which are just so fascinating.

Vietnam for the helicopters and riverine warfare, just plain cool.

Science Fiction Battletech for its illogical, but totally cool, if totally bat-sh*t cray, giant stompy robots, which is an ideal background for those of us who like to hide historical battles using SF.

Not into Fantasy gaming, played in the past, but too much like ancients as a period.
Unlike some people, I feel under no obligation to pretend that only one war-gaming scale is true, and that any others 6mm/10mm/15mm/25mm are mistaken; or that I know better than people themselves what is right for them to use. The point is precisely for all war-gamers to decide for themselves.
