Liberators Miniatures are a dedicated range of 15mm figures for gaming
the wars of South American Independence, fought between 1809 and 1826.
These campaigns were similar to the Napoleonic Wars but with the wild
character of the vast Andes Mountains and untamed llanos. Armies of a
few thousand men struggled against each other in some of the most
extreme terrain in the world: battles were fought in tropical jungles
and windswept mountain plateaus. The miniatures range covers all the
major factions are covered and expands with each book release. The
beauty of the period is you can get started with a few units and expand
from there, building dedicated units of individual regiments for each
battle or campaign. Some of the references can also be used for
Napoleonic Wars, especially as Spanish or French "campaign look" troops.
The range is sculpted by Mike Broadbent and has been specifically
designed to fit with AB Miniatures and Warmodelling figures.

Liberators Books are designed to bring the wars of South American
Independence to your table. Each volume contains a brief history of
the theater campaigns, army and leader notes, comprehensive uniform
plates and a variety of scenarios to recreate or build your army
around. Depending on the size of the scenario, all are designed to be
played with any small unit or tactical (battalion) level Napoleonic
rules system, including such popular systems as "Legends of the Old
West: The Alamo", "Sharp Practice" or "Capitan" for the smaller
scenarios and "Regimental Fire & Fury", "General de Brigade" or
"Lasalle" for the larger battles. The "Liberators Volume 1 Supplement"
contains a set of Quick Play rules used by the author at conventions,
which has also proved to be very popular with players looking for a
fast, fun, "beer and pretzels" style game.
