Seleucid Line Cataphracts

We have just finished the first of the Seleucid Cavalry units, the Line Cataphracts. Agema and Companions next. I have shown the second set of legs we will supply with the HCS10 levelled weapons pack, this allows the lance to be pointed towards the grounds(that pack has 3 bodies but 4 sets of legs). We will also do a deal with all weapons upright if asked.

Website store problem communicating

We have had an issue over the weekend that caused the online store to stop receiving notifications from Paypal. This has been sorted but required a rollback of the database. This has resulted in the loss of several new accounts created after the rollback point. No order details or payments have been lost, we have all in hand ready to cast and post. If you find your account is gone please start fresh by creating the account again. We can send copies of the order details that have been lost from the missing accounts if you need to check them over.

We do not know what caused this issue, it hasn’t occurred before and seems to have been a corrupted file.

Please email us if you have any questions.

Sorry for the inconvenience this has caused.

Remoulding of the Phalanx range

We have started remaking the moulds for the Phalanx figures, to date the unarmoured headless PH28,Linothorax PH29 and the 2 commands have been completed PH13+14.(Update – PH1-12 also now done.) This has allowed us to make small changes to the figures. The two commands have changed to contain 4 useful figures ie only 1 musician instead of 2.

The rest of the figures should be complete by end of this week start of next. Meanwhile the mounted and dismounted command figures and the seleucid cavalry are progressing well.

Adams Later Pike Phalanx

Adam has been at me to do Ptolemaic phalangites for some time so when he had completed the later style linothorax he had to have some. That said they will do all the Later successor armies. The character pack is also useful in the imitation legionary units, the Thorakitai units etc.

Christmas Greatings

To all, we wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. We will be easing down towards the end of the week and will start back again in the New Year. All orders received before Wednesday will be posted before we stop, those after that will have to wait. Adam has had a few health issues that has slowed his sculpting down so we have missed our estimated release dates for the Seleucid cavalry later phalangites and advancing/attacking thureophoroi, they are still progressing and nothing has been cut. Once they have been completed we will start on the Byzantines.

Cheers
Keith and Adam
