  • 28mm Rangers of Shadow Deep

    Jun 14, 2019 0 comment(s) Categories: Observation Post, Prime

    North Star Miniatures are offering ‘official’ figures to support the Rangers of Shadow Deep game, a solo and co-operative tabletop miniatures game by Frostgrave author Joe McCullough. Players create their ranger, gather companions, and play through a series of missions in their fight to hold back the darkness. If their rangers survive, they will grow in power and ability, and be sent on more difficult, dangerous and intricate assignments. Currently only available as a PDF, it is hoped that a print version will be available soon. There are three packs available in this small range, representing potential characters and a rather disgusting enemy. ROSD01 - Rangers of Shadow Deep 1 contains two Ranger figures, one male and one female. Both wear cloaks with hoods. The young female ranger

  • Thud & Blunder

    Mar 15, 2019 0 comment(s) Categories: Flipthrough, Prime

    Thud & Blunder is a 164 page hardback book. The rules are intended to replicate the ‘High Fantasy’ gaming of the past, with Warbands skirmishing with one another in a range of settings. https://youtu.be/tizTYjYBKEQ The introduction succinctly outlines the key concepts behind the game and offers a number of resources via the internet. The game uses between 5 and 20 miniatures of your choice, preferably in 28mm, and all tests are made using D10s. The basic characteristics are then explained, with each miniature in the game being defined by 5 attributes, Race, Destiny, Shooting Value, Fighting Value and Speed. The members of a Warband are further defined by Traits, the various skills or objects that add advantages in the game and whether they have Magical Powers. The

  • 28mm Plastic Frostgrave Wizards

    Mar 01, 2019 0 comment(s) Categories: Observation Post, Prime

    North Star Miniatures and Osprey Publishing continue their titanic team-up to produce top quality multi-part plastic miniature. The latest collaboration has resulted in the frankly excellent Frostgrave Wizards boxed set. This boxed set offers enough parts to build eight wizards or apprentices for Frostgrave. It includes a wide range of heads, arms, equipment, and familiars, and is also compatible with the Soldiers, Cultists, and Barbarians boxed sets. Now, that makes the frame sound a little bland – what you actually get is four bodies per sprue, but it’s the plethora of potential options which lifts this to a whole new level. There are 20 heads to choose from, 40 different arms, scrolls, potions, pouches and familiars which can all be used to completely customize your Wizard character. On

    North Star Miniatures have added some characterful metal miniatures to their Frostgrave: Ghost Archipelago range. The new miniatures are the chiefs and shamen who lead their Tribal brethren throughout the myriad islands which make up the Ghost Archipelago.  Once you’ve used the plastic Tribals boxed set to make your basic troops, these metal Specialists are designed to enhance your force or just to act as the leaders that every tribe needs.  All of these figures will be available in packs of two or as single figures.  The figures shown here are the Mercenary with a vicious looking double handed club, the dancing Warden in terrifying mask, the Freebooter with skull mask and the Tomb Robber with his stone axe. These are just some of the figures which

  • 28mm Plastic Tribal Warriors

    Jan 11, 2019 0 comment(s) Categories: Observation Post, Prime

    North Star and Osprey Games have produced a new plastic boxed set of Tribal Warriors. These are designed to be used with the Ghost Archipelago fantasy adventure rules. The Tribal Warriors in the boxed set are designed to represent the various tribes that can be encountered across the Archipelago’s islands. Consequently, these multi-pose plastic figures have a touch of the Polynesian about them, albeit with fantasy overtones. They are designed to be both adversaries of the Heritor’s and their Crews, whilst also functioning as a distinct group themselves. Each frame consists of five bodies in different poses, a choice of ten different heads, nine arms with primitive stone and wooden close combat weapons, two blowpipes and bows. There are also two wickerwork shields and, a nice

    Dec 14, 2018 0 comment(s) Categories: Observation Post, Prime

    The North Star 1866 range has seen the release of new sculpts of Prussian Hussars, both Command and trooper packs. The Austro-Prussian War (known as German War, Seven Weeks War, Unification War, German Civil War or Fraternal War) was a war fought in 1866 between the German Confederation under the leadership of the Austrian Empire and its German allies on one side and the Kingdom of Prussia with its German allies and Italy on the other, that resulted in Prussian dominance over the German states. In the Italian unification process, this is called the Third Independence War. There are three mounted figures per pack, all wearing the standard uniform of the period, complete with swords and carbines. The command group consists of an officer, trumpeter and standard

  • 28mm Renegade Secesh Riders

    Dec 14, 2018 0 comment(s) Categories: Observation Post, Prime

    Artizan Designs and North Star have released new sculpts designed to be used as Confederate irregular, guerilla or similar renegade cavalry in the period before, during or after the American Civil War. Throughout the Kansas-Missouri Wars, Civil War and post-Civil War era, many individuals and groups fought on behalf of their ‘States Rights’, for plunder or just for the Hell of it. Clad in a mixture of civilian and military uniforms, they rode out not so much as cavalry as mounted infantry or light horsemen, using a mixture of pistols, shotguns, carbines and even full sized muskets. Each miniature is offered in a mounted and dismounted version in the same blister. These look like desperadoes, the type of men who’ll fight hard and dirty from horseback or

  • 28mm Shilluk Warriors

    Copplestone Castings and North Star have released new sculpts of an African tribe for use with the excellent Death In The Dark Continent rules or any other colonial era rules. The Shilluk Kingdom was located along the banks of the White Nile river in modern South Sudan. Its capital and royal residence was in the town of Fashoda. According to their folk history and neighboring accounts, the kingdom was founded during the mid-fifteenth century CE by its first ruler, the demigod Nyikang. During the nineteenth century, the Shilluk were affected by military assaults from the Ottoman Empire and later British colonization in Anglo-Egyptian Sudan. Based upon photographs from the colonial era, there are 4 packs of miniatures which have been added to the Darkest Africa range –
