Here's the initial list we've sent to the designer for the WWI extension, in time for next year. There's quite a lot of the requested missing items on here, and we'll be adding more things as and when they pop up on the radar. As always, let us know your thoughts!
PS, the first batch of sculpts have also arrived, so I'll get some pics of those taken soon!

Excellent news Leon, cant wait to see them
Oh God not more temptation! A great list of poses as well that could be carried through to the WWII ranges where required.
La, La, La, La, not listening
Too much temptation...
No will power....
Critical wallet failure...
Hi
Any chance of British infantry in greatcoat and helmet being shoehorned into the list? :D Would work for the Irish Troubles/IWI as well.
Cheers

This is excellent news as I've only just got cracking on this. Nice to see the Russians, Austro-Hungarians and Belgians are included, not to mention the Royal Naval Division - foreigners may well call it the British navy but we know it's the Royal Navy. Incidentally, won my first RCW game using Square Bashing, which included some of my own Russian figures masquerading as Whites.
Hi All replying under leons name :-*
The list isn't complete its only what I've cobbled together so far :-\
More horse drawn wagons
More armoured cars
troops in shorts!!!!!
Belgium dog cart
Rail gun - possibly generic due to costs!!!
air planes
civvies
personalities
Leon will hate me ;D :-\
Dave
Quick report this imposter to a moderator! Strip him of all his posts! :d
Its why I'm still a Lieutenant ;)
I also forgot to add simplex light railway and the extra winter type troops in woolly hats sheepskins etc, dead markers etc, etc etc :-bd
Dodgy Dave
Ummm ... some of the British infantry - could they be in goatskin stinkers?
That's just laziness there Dave. How long does it take to log out and and log in as yourself?! >:( ;D
Had a quick look through the catalogue...Do you do any Naval figures at all?...Something like the ones that landed in Antwerp

Haven't seen them but SV19 WW2 Russian Naval might fit also
Otherwise you could trim the peaks off the caps of WW1 British Infantry in Greatcoat BP30.
Or a mix of all 3 :D.

Thanks for that . I forgot to look in he Russian section
The pictures of the naval brigade are the ones sent to the designer, I didn't know they were clothed in goat skins! For other naval figures look at the German east africa GEA4 for naval figures a better bet than the Russians.

If you are making highlanders, can you make some Pipers?

I hope to see a piper very, very soon... fingers crossed.
Middle East Revamp!
Some of the figures are excellent (British Infantry, ANZACs) but some of the others are looking a bit old fashioned when compared to them and some of the other WW1 range. The Australian Infantry, German Colonial infantry, Turkish Arab legion infantry etc would benefit from a spruce up
Cheers
Could I please request generals and other staff Johnnys standing around looking serious? Maybe one or two pointing out something interesting on the wall of the Château, but none of that frantic behaviour you do at the front.

Hey, those are my Russian Civil War "Red Sailors"!!!
I´m happy someone found the picture useful. Please, understand that they are painted for the RCW, so uniforms are not all equal and the flag is for the bolos.
I need to ask for one specific armoured car, the GARFORD PUTILOV ARMOURED TRUCK, for the RCW.
Please, please, please....
