One of our customers has been busily commissioning Clibinarium for some more useful AWI additions. In this batch we've got:

These will be heading into master moulds over the next week ready for release in mid-May hopefully.
Good poses for those hussars. Might be useful for animating the SYW range in a real war. And I'll be wanting some of dem camp followers; is no. 3 a clergyman?
Stunning work as always and those dismounted Dragoons will be most useful 8) .

I salute the customer and Clibinarium. There is more detail on that AWI range (and definitely more dynamic poses) than on most of the old 25mms that I started with way back before we all had computers. Might need to get those equity release brochures out... :D
Wow!

By the look of it FK the left most figure of the pioneers holding a book in one hand and gesticulating with the other hand looks like a suitable figure for a clergyman?
There's also the left most figure in the EC 42 ECW civilians set...I've used that figure as a preacher on a number of Covenanter command stands https://www.pendraken.co.uk/nec42-n17th-century-civilians-4-sets-1529-p.asp (https://www.pendraken.co.uk/nec42-n17th-century-civilians-4-sets-1529-p.asp)
Anyhow looks like the Pioneers and Camp Followers could easily be used for C17 games too - most are not in tricornes.....
A very useful addition to the AWI range. :-bd
Quick question for the forum brains trust from a lazy and penny-pinching "friend" :D . before I spend hours in ref books.
Could most of the Brit AWI range do double service as a SYW army of about 20 years earlier?
Gosh this excellent, this is turning into the best range of AWI in any scale.
Hi
QuoteCould most of the Brit AWI range do double service as a SYW army of about 20 years earlier?
I have fairly extensive Pendraken armies for both the SYW and AWI (just ask Leon!) and personally I would say no. The British uniform regulations changed quite a bit in the late 1760's and the new figures shout out the difference. The new AWI figures are very slightly bigger than the older SYW range (IMHO). Part of the trouble being that the new sculpts for the AWI range are just so damned good. =D> Now if only the older SYW range could be brought up to the same standard...... :-\
