Good thing U.P.S. and the U.S.P.S. deliver – who wants to head out into the frozen tundra? Worry not – a hot beverage, comfy chair, and some of these items can warm a wargamer's heart. Most due into the shoppe in two or three weeks.

Rules…

ROMPAN EL FUEGO! An Accessory of Gaming the Spanish Civil War

Rompan El Fuego! An Accessory of Gaming the Spanish Civil War Gives you all the Troop, AFV, and Gun Classifications you need to wargame the Spanish Civil War in conjunction with one man/vehicle = one platoon WWII rules such as the popular Rapid Fire fast-play rules for WWII. Also included are supplementary rules, together with a handful of amendments which will bring some of the unique character of this conflict onto your tabletop. There are also notes on weapons and tactics. $15.00 USD

Modern Africa: Rules for Modern Skirmish Battles Set of rules to fight/refight battles on the dark continent 1960s-1990s. The arms were either leftovers from an earlier era, state-sponsor (U.S. or U.S.S.R.) supplied, or black-market purchased. $15.00 USD

X-Wing Minis…

X-WING: Rebel Transport Expansion Pack

X-Wing: Rebel Transport Expansion Pack For X-Wing, but miniature doesn't match the 1:270 scale shared by all the other X-Wing miniatures. Instead, the mini is sculpted at a relative scale that 'feels good' on the tabletop. Comes with one huge, pre-painted GR-75 medium transport miniature, an X-wing escort, new ship cards (including Jek Porkins), rules for 'energy' to fuel your shields and abilities, and a new maneuver template that gives your transport the feel of a truly huge ship with multiple new damage decks to track hits against different sections of its hull. The Rebel Transport won't be legal for standard tournaments. $60.00 USD [Available in March/April 2014]

TMP Special Offer: Pre-order and Save 15%. New price: $51.00 USD

X-wing: Rebel Tantive IV Corvette Expansion Pack One huge, pre-painted miniature representing the CR90 corvette, its maneuver dial, rules for 'energy' fuel your shields and weapons, cards and tokens that you need to field it, and a new maneuver template. Scale: The Rebel Corvette is too large for standard tournament play, so the miniature doesn't match the 1:270 scale shared by all the other X-Wing miniatures. Instead, the mini is sculpted at a relative scale that 'feels good' on the tabletop. The CR90 Tantive IV won't be legal for standard tournaments. $90.00 USD
