After getting great advice on 15mm Viking period figures, I thought I would ask about sources for ships and buildings. I know Essex has a drakkar – does anybody else have one, or a knarr, or Saxon longboat? How about different building types, churches, monasteries, palisades and so on? Livestock, booty, and captives? Thanks! Christopher |

The ship in the background is a (1:120) reissue of the old Heller plastic one. They turn up every now and again in my local model shop. I prefer it to the Essex one as it is a more like 3 bases (rather than 2) – that said, the sail is 'borrowed' from an Essex model :) Phil

I forgot that I had an old wooden drakkar kit and the paper models mentioned above, stored away in the depths. Thanks for the tips! |

Hmm … the Splintered Light buildings are listed as "Unavailable at this Time" – anybody know what's up with them? |

I'm almost certain they ARE available; we had the A frames at Cold Wars and I know we didn't sell all of them. The hut with removable roof might be OOS, though. David will see this and will know. |

Thanks – this was supposed to be a "after the summer" project, but it looks like it might be getting nudged up the list. ;) |
looks at some new terrain products, which use space age technology!
