prepares to do some regimental-level ACW gaming.
G'day! Once Again From the Slave Dungeon!
Today we see the release of a new range of figures by Mike Broadbent and sold through Slave 2 Gaming.
In the vein of Fire and Furry, or Across a Teddy Field, to the march of the Tedal Yell and the waving of the Paws and Bars flag, we see the rise of the American Civil Paw range at the Battle of Teddysburg!
The Paws and Stripes waves from one side of the field, led by General George G Teddeade, as they square off against the might of General Ted E. Lee.
Now I've got that out of my system, this new range of 18mm American Civil War figures are slightly different from the normal ACW figures, mainly because they are Teddys. The range is quite big, and features both Teddys with Kepi hats and normal hats. It has five different infantry poses for both Kepis and normal hats, plus four poses for each hat type in cavalry. Also a leader, musician, and flag bearer for both infantry and cavalry.
There are artillery pieces and crew (for both kepi and normal hats), and a General on Rocking Horse with his retinue.
Unfortunately, due to circumstances beyond our control, the 28mm Teddys that Mike used to make are no longer available, but these take their place quite nicely.
The range has not been made for any specific game system, although we at Slave 2 Gaming do have a simple set of regimental rules that we are bringing out as a set of Beta-test rules, hoping for the public to work with us to create a workable system. It can be found at Wargame Vault.
The figures can be found at slave2gaming.com.
