Today sees the publication on Wargame Vault of Mike Haught's War of the Pacific scenario pack for his Dawn of Iron ironclads rules. To mark the occasion, LFG is pleased to announce the release of three new sets of 3Dmodels. The first two cover HMS Shah and HMS Amethyst, which fought against the Peruvian ironclad Huascar when she had been commandeered by rebels in 1877. A scenario covering this battle is included in Mike's new scenario pack. The Amethyst pack includes two hulls representing the two different types of stern used in ships of the class.

The third represents the Peruvian monitor Atahualpa and her sister ship Manco Capac, which were ex-US Canonicus-class monitors. Both served during the War of the Pacific. The pack includes two variants, one fitted with a hurricane deck, the second with the hurricane deck removed.

All three new model packs can be found on Wargame Vault, and are on sale at the introductory price of £3.00 GBP as I just missed the WV Winter Sale:
