Bello Ludi ACW Rules & Card Bundle. Period-specific rulebook and the generic 1700-1900 cards deck. The game is designed as a multi-player game but will work just as fine with only two players or even solo. Can be easily adapted to the number of miniatures that you have available. $49.00 USD

Books…

Bullocks, Grain and Good Madeira: The Maratha and Jat Campaigns, 1803-1806 and the Emergence of an Indian Army

On the last day of the year 1802, the Maratha Peshwa Bajirao II signed the Treaty of Bassein which sparked the 2nd Anglo-Maratha War.

The Complete Book of Tokarev Pistols

The Complete Book of Tokarev Pistols. The Tokarev saga is a long and amazingly interesting one. The story began in the 1920s and spans nearly 100 years. It is fair to say that the Tokarev pistol was born out of the advances in small arms that were occurring at the turn of the 20th Century, especially the trend of military forces in many countries to replace revolvers with semiautomatic pistols. While the Tokarev has links to the past, its use continues to the present-day. The geographic distribution of the Tokarev is worldwide, as it has migrated from the Soviet Union to numerous countries around the globe. The Tokarev has been used for so long by so many countries that it is almost universally recognized. It has attained a longevity rivaled by few other pistols. Includes 1,550 color photos and illustrations. $40.00 USD

Communist Bloc Handguns

From the CZ-52 to the Makarov, all of the handguns of the Communist nations are covered in great detail, with special attention paid to topics that will be of practical use to collectors. Also covered are ammunition and accessories. Organized by country, this new guide will be a must own resource for all enthusiasts of imported pistols and revolvers. Includes 450+ color photos. $40.00 USD

Mannlicher Military Rifles: A Collectors Guide. Profusely illustrated with close-up photos, drawings and diagrams, this book is the most detailed examination of Mannlicher military rifles ever produced in the English language. Includes model-by-model specifications, modern test-firing results, exciting service histories, ammunition details, rare combat photos, useful technical drawings, and discussion of Mannlicher's imitators. $37.00 USD

055 Big Guns in the Atlantic: Germany's Battleships and Cruisers Raid the Convoys 1939-41 Raid series. During late 1939, the armored cruiser Deutschland, and later the battlecruisers Scharnhorst and Gneisenau, were used as commerce raiders, to strike at Allied convoys in the North Atlantic. These sorties met with mixed results, but for Germany's naval high command, they showed that this kind of operation had potential. Then, the fall of France, Denmark and Norway in early 1940 dramatically altered the strategic situation. $22.00 USD

Giap and the VPA General Staff accepted the challenge of a major positional battle; through a total mobilization of national resources, and with Chinese logistical help, they assembled a siege army of 58,000 regular troops, equipped for the first time with 105mm artillery and 37mm AA guns. Describes the first NVA assaults on 13 March 1954 and subsequent battle that quickly developed into a dramatic 56-day Stalingrad in the Jungle. $24.00 USD
