I know, I know, it seems ages since I announced any new releases. Tell you what, let's put that right. For your delectation this time around, we have the Austrian army of 1866.

Austrian infantry, formed

As usual with the late 19th century ranges, these give great value as they can be used as opposition to both Prussian and Italian opponents, and have the added advantage of being dead easy to paint up in the large numbers required. More details can be found if you go here.

To complement the release of this range, Peter Riley has pulled all the stops out and produced a supplement to his Franco-Prussian War rules covering the 1866 campaigns. As usual with Peter, this is a superb piece of work covering not only adaptations for the rules themselves, but also comprehensive OBs, army generators, and scenarios.

The only headache in all of this is I have not quite finished the layout yet, so the slick roll-out of simultaneous rules and figures releases has, in true Baccus fashion, not quite happened as planned. Rest assured that work continues apace, and I expect to have them available in a couple of weeks time, when they will be a free download.

Garde grenadiers in bearskins

Continuing with the late 19thC theme, the next release is more of a testament to customer pester-power than I dare to admit. Making a very belated appearance on the battlefield (no comments from the back row, please!), we have some Garde Grenadiers sporting their natty bearskins. There, you have them - now will you all stop the emails - please! More details here.

Ancient Italian cavalry

Moving backwards in time, I am glad to say that we have solved the mold problems that delayed the release of the Ancients Italian cavalry, and that these are now available. More details if you go here.

We'll have all the new stuff with us at Fiasco this coming weekend, and at Crisis on 6th November. If you want to pre-order any items, new or old, please do get in touch as soon as possible.

Cheers!
