What ever happened to them?

Warlord games have them, only sell them by the sprue but apparently they are out of stock…

Warlord bought the company as it failed and then failed to do anything with the products they now own.

Surprise?

Prince, when I click the link it states "Sold Out" for just a sec then it goes away. We sure they are truly sold out?

Warlord appear to be trying to integrate the two product lines- I suspect both Warlords Games and WGF's AZW ranges are currently largely unavailable for the same reasons!


Most of the WGF ranges therefore are unavailable- but the process is already completed with the WSS range and the Zombie apocalpyse range- probably because these compliment rather than compete with Warlord games ranges and are pretty much complete ranges in their own right.

I suspect when the Orcs return they'll have been arrayed into some sort of thematic range along with the Amazons and Skeletons, and possibly whatever other fantasy odds and ends that Warlord might have lying around…

Back in 2015 we became the exclusive worldwide distributor of the Wargames Factory range – and have since been working to have many of the kits re-tooled and re-packaged to bring them a little more into-line with the existing Warlord range.

To date, we've re-released the Zombies and Zombie Survivor kits to great success with 'Project Z', the WSS kits, and the entire 'Rising Sun' range recently re-released as part of the hugely popular 'Test of Honour' range… with many others in the works.

We're working on these alongside our usual weekly releases supporting our existing ranges, and a number of other games in the pipeline… Phew! – there's plenty in-the-works from the Warlord studio

As 'Mike Target' righly mentions above – The Orcs, Skeletons and Amazons (among others) are indeed in the works, being re-tooled and re-packaged – and will re-appear for sale on the Warlord site soon.

The Orc sprues have – for now – sold-out, however there should be a re-stock inbound soon. If you want any further information on receiving automated alerts when they're re-stocked, or for any other queries, by all means drop us an email at info@warlordgames.com – and we'll be happy to help

Looks like I spoke to soon, and I apologize.

Any word on the Numidian Infantry?

David Johansen27 Mar 2017 4:32 p.m. PST

I've got two boxes.

Black Cavalier27 Mar 2017 5:06 p.m. PST

Or news on the shock troop sci-fi infantry?

David Johansen27 Mar 2017 9:16 p.m. PST

I think Dream Forge as the shock troops.

@Black Cavalier – As mentioned by David above – The Shock Trooper kits went to Dream Forge Games – and are available to order on their site.

@Crazyivanov – No word just yet on the Numidian Infantry, I'm afraid – at the moment we're working on following-up on the great success of 'Test of Honour' – as well as working on the string of Campaign Books coming for Bolt Action, the Brit Para plastics, more plastic vehicles for Bolt Action, another few(!) Antares plastic kits due later in the year, much more coming for the Doctor Who Miniatures Game, and even a few other games coming down the pipeline… busy times at Warlord HQ!

We're working the Wargames Factory plastics into our release schedule where we can, to ensure that they don't overshadow another release, and so that they compliment the rest of our offering. The truth is that at the moment we have so many big, headline releases scheduled that it's tricky to work out exactly when to release them all!

Paul… are there plans to add instructions?

We have a ton of the samurai troops. Very painful to assemble sans instructions.
