From the very dawn of time, the land existed. Invaded, colonized, deserted, invaded once more, and always fighting against the darkness that dwelt in the Northern Seas. The land was rich with Magic, a place for Heroes, Gods and Monsters. This land has been and shall always be Erin. Now sit you down and listen, for this tale will fascinate and confound you in equal measure, for what I speak of is no longer vivid life in this world of men…
Now it is March! The third of a dozen (one each month, all year) Alternia miniatures is free in every package sent out from Scotland to customers. Place your order, as many as you wish, and she will automatically be included. Any size of order, the only exception is no digital-only orders; as long as it is shipped, it gets the free miniature. Ends 1st April 2022. See our mascot Alternia on the website.
As you can see, it is a very interesting miniature, and would be a great addition to your collection with a variety of uses.
This month, our mascot is inspired by the invigorated and expanding Erin Celtic Mythology range of 28mm miniatures. Now nearly 90 miniatures, you can see she would make a fine Milesian female warrior or hero. Fight the Fomorians, monsters and the Fir Bolg!
Here we are with all of the Alternias thus far. By year's end, there will be 13 in total! You can purchase previous versions and current free one if you wish on our website.
Alternative Armies News for March 2022
Firstly, it is with regret we must announce that on Monday, 7th March, some 70 of our biggest miniatures and models will increase in price by 10% to 20%. This is beyond our control. See our blog for the article with full listing, which includes 15mm Mechs, 28mm Giants, golems, busts, military figurines, and scenic pieces too. Fair notice is given of this price rise. Thank you.
Secondly, we will be reducing our New Releases page on our website, taking it down from the roughly 180 codes to only those items from the last year, to make some space. This will occur at the same time as the price rise above. Read on.
This month, we have some new releases, and the return of a much-asked-for classic set of miniatures too. All of these will occur by the middle of the month, as our big spring event will start on the last Monday of March. This will be announced at the time, but we are always informative to our customers so we are letting you know. Erin Celtic Myth will get another Fir Bolg miniature which was asked for – a War Banner for your forces. Classic Asgard 28mm sci-fi will see the return of the robots from that range. I am delighted to say that the entire U.S.E.M.E. series of gaming titles will come back into print on our website, and we will announce that. In February, we spoke of Deadloque on our blog, and in March, we will return those miniatures to our website, with single-pose purchase option and a previously-not-released variant pose too.
As always, if you have any questions or would like to make a suggestion or ask if we can restore or release something you are looking for, then contact us and we will do our best to assist you.
