We previewed these earlier in the year and now they're available! Clib has been working with one of our customers to fill a few gaps in the AWI ranges, so there's some good stuff in this batch. The pioneers and camp followers in particular will happily serve in other 18th century games too.

Damn it! I've only just placed an order and now can see another one in the offing ;) :D .
Just superb

Thank goodness for my wallet I've recently placed an order #:-S
I like the pioneers and the camp followers. I can see them being quite useful.
Genuine question: the first figure in the Queens Rangers. Is his axe a bit bent or I am misinterpreting?

I didn't spot anything unusual when moulding them so it might just be the photo angle? It's only a thin piece anyway so could easily be bent back to shape if it's a touch wonky.
I think I'm probably just misunderstanding. Is he throwing it?

I think he's gesturing with it? He should be at the other end of the group really, shouting them forward and pointing towards the enemy with his axe.
Thank you. Since I'm not likely to get into the AWI, it is for me, somewhat of a moot point.
Definitely having some of those camp followers and work party though.
Particularly that priest ... he's destined for a bit of a history jump. :)
I like that sculpt too, it's very authoritarian. Got to keep those heathens in line!
Some lovely new additions to the range, I can see the pioneers and camp followers being used over several periods
The new releases are really well detailed. Good enough to be used in skirmish type wargames.
What I'm most interested in is how I go about commissioning new figures?
Is there a set requirement on the costs for such work?

It depends on what you're looking for (which ranges) and whether the sculptor can fit them in really. Shoot me an email and I'll run through the process.
