My compliments to the chef!!

Well that's an impressive addition to the range I can see where my money will be going come the end of the year! Really scratching my head to think of anything else that would be useful ( Naval landing party and gun crews ? 🤣)
But these are excellent and many thanks to the sponsors for funding.

[Steve J]

I think your first post Graham and if so, welcome on board!

[Scott Blair]

Hi all,


Welcome indeed Graham! Glad you like. I am the sponsor of most of the recent releases. There may be just a few more to come, possibly a grasshopper gun and a few bits and bobs. Clib and I think the range is pretty well covered although additional codes are not impossible.

As for naval crew, landing party. Will give it some thought. I guess could be suitably generic. Marines for British and Americans should be possible from existing codes.

Watch out for developments!

Thanks for sponsoring these additions Scott, which we all greatly appreciate I'm sure. A grasshopper gun sounds fun (no idea what it looks like but will check!)

[Scott Blair]

No bother Steve!

Light, usually longish barrel, hence the name. Mobile and able to keep up with advancing troops. Perry Miniatures do one for their range! Used by both sides.

Like your blog by the way!

Hi Graham - welcome to Bedlam !

Like your blog by the way!

Thanks Scott !

Now I know what that gun is, it would be nice to have for sure.

Welcome Graham

Thanks Scott, I've managed to resist the additional temptation you've been helping generate, so far... 

[GrahamC]

Scott,
Well done sponsoring these and yes Marines can be easily covered from existing figures I was thinking more of just a few naval gun crew and sailors! However I did think some militia artillery crew would be useful, I only say that because I'm converting some at the moment 😃

Graham, it is only a matter of time before that resolve breaks down!

Thanks Graham. I started buying from the range years ago, but my interests moved on, in part because I wanted more codes. Recently I was in the fortunate position to have some extra cash and I thought why not!

I will chat to Clib and see if we can come up with a crew that would look like militia or naval crew. Am thinking shirtsleeves, breeches, bareheads and tricornes. They could be the crew for the proposed grasshopper gun but could also serve other guns. A landing party might be an option as well, I think you mentioned that.

Watch this space!

Meant to say, there are naval guns in the British SYW codes and the small pirate range might give you some options.

I'd noticed the naval guns I could most probably look at the pirates although being traitorous I noticed Newline do some 10mm naval crew 😳
Always happy to chip in for extras

Hi Graham, I dropped a note to Clib. Let us see where we can take this and thanks for that offer! I suspect with recent message from Leon work on new items might be defer for a bit, but it is possible that Clib might do the greens anyway if he has capacity. Leave it with me!

Should add had no idea Newline did 10 mm. Will take a look, purely out of interest you know....

Scott

[GrahamC]

Scott,
Excellent. Yes Newline have had a limited 10mm range for a while

[Big Insect]

I am very (very) tempted by these.
I am not usually into 'uniformed' era stuff but these, and the limited nature of the conflict are very appealing indeed.

[maciek]

First, thanks Scott for sponsoring the range.

Maybe some indians would be worth consideration ...?
