I seem to have fallen foul of the forum bug, so let's try again: Forgive me if I'm out of the loop here – I'm just getting back in to painting my FoW minis as a lockdown hobby – but just what is going on with Battlefront? They seem to be running two separate online stores. The old Flames of War online store seems to have all the brand new FoW releases, and the full range of Team Yankee, but also a really weird mix of really old FoW stuff, like Mid War Monsters. Meanwhile all the mid-war Desert FoW ranges and other settings like 'Nam and Fate of a Nation have been moved to a brand new website with a completely different format. How come? Is the company being split? Is the older website being wound down? I mainly ask because I want to order a mixture of Mid- and Late-War stuff and it seems a faff to have to do it as two separate orders! |

I haven't had to make separate orders for Mid-War vs. Late-War miniatures on the main store, but if I ordered from the Fate/Nam/WWI site, then yes, it was a separate order. A bit of an inconvenience. I think the Late-War was moved to a separate section from the older models is because many are migrating to plastic vs. resin, and because of the repackaging. |

All the mid war stuff is on the main page store still? The other site is for their other ranges and it looks like all the midwar plastics are on there too. Which is good because that site takes PayPal payments. |

All the mid war stuff is on the main page store still? The generic mid-war stuff, yes, but not the Desert ranges. |
