She was a young flower plucked from the coarse bracken to be his bride. In gown of silk and purest white, she waited for him. Blood red roses in her hands; her fingers without a ring awaiting him. A bride for a life of promise, joy and a future of a child so soon. But he never came. The day passed and the sun dipped low, and then below the veil of the sky. Cold came and then darkness while she stood waiting. The roses wilted and her skin became like ice. No one came, for the shame on her was all too well known. As the sun rose, the once maiden had left dishonor and life behind, and the cold no longer bit at and within her. Those who came upon her now ran in terror, and the dress of death would never leave her. She had become of another realm. A creature – a ghostly bride.
Spooky times abound upon this All Hallows season. A time of frights, scares, horror movies, and gaming (candy and sweets for the nippers instead), and at Alternative Armies, we are having a gruesomely good time playing games of Flintloque in the snows of the Witchlands, preparing for the Orcs in the Webbe Advent Calendar in December. We want to share the Halloween fun with all of you, so to that end, we have a fantastic offer. All orders placed on our website or by email until 9AM GMT on 5th November, 2018, which have a least one physical item in the cart, will automatically receive the brand-new 28mm scale Ghostly Bride miniature (worth £4.00 GBP) included for free in the package. All you need to do is order and we will do the rest. Freaky Fine!
55030 – The Ghostly Bride
Abandoned at the altar and forevermore cursed by cruel fates to wander the night as an Undead apparition in full gown and veil. This code contains one 28mm scale, high quality, grey-tone resin miniature. The Ghostly Bride is great for any game system as a character of spooky intent. There is no assembly required with this one-piece figure, which stands 28mm tall, and it is supplied with one of our cartouche resin bases. Supplied unpainted, but you can purchase it painted and based by selecting the option on the page. Price: £4.00 GBP
We have some other miniatures which are on a special offer during this gruesome season of the year until 5th November. Do any of these give you the chill?
5005J – Madame Boniface
This code is taken from the Lady Wintermore's Fangs boxed set of characters for Flintloque. It is a one-piece 28mm scale, white-metal miniature of a skeleton, wearing a ball gown with a mask half covering its face. She is the confidante of the Vampyre Lamia Wintermore, and her bodyguard too, acting undercover at regal events and balls in the city of Moskova. An excellent miniature for many settings in your collection. Supplied unpainted with a square cartouche style resin base.
55016 – Lady Rosafiend
The nemesis of Lamia Wintermore is the temptress and seductive vampyre Lady Rosafiend. The cause of the Emperor Mordred's fever dreams, and now she can be yours too! Go!
VNT31-05 – The Liche Lord
An evil that never rests and never loses its thirst for the doom of the living, the King of the Liches is a foe that is unlike any other. A Liche Lord is more than an enemy of your sword or your magic, it is an enemy of all things that breathe and of the sun in the sky. At the head of a limitless tide of grinning skulls and gleaming bones, their ways of necromancy lend animation and desire to the Undead. If your skill takes you through the corpses, skeletons, ghouls, wraiths and all manner of other darkness, you will then have your chance. It will be a single chance and a slim one too. For the Liche Lord is possessed of warrior talent that rivals the greatest of the Elf blade masters. Strike quick and true, and run it through and then… well then, you will have to find the next move yourself, since the Liche will merely laugh in a voice of screams and deep crypts as your sword fails to harm it. Pray to the gods. Fear the King of Necromancy.
28mm Liche Lord with fur-trimmed cloak, wearing a crown, holding a spear and large shield.
CA6 – Deadly Foes
Your party has found their lair. Your party has cut through the undergrowth and scaled the walls. Your party has hacked its way through the henchmen, and your party has overcome the traps that litter the ground. Your party has lost some members, and tears have been shed as those remaining climb the stone staircase, and enter the chamber in which the deadly foe you have sought resides. Behind the door is an enemy more powerful that those your party has faced and beaten… will you succeed?
Three different 28mm white-metal miniatures approximately 28mm average height. Great quality, choice and value. These miniatures are not supplied with bases, and are supplied unpainted. Choose from a pack, and single miniatures. Total choice! Poses in this code are as follows – CA6-01: The Classic Vampire! CA6-02: A Cursing Hag! CA6-03: The Summoner!
We have a huge range of miniatures in 28mm and 15mm scales, plus some 6mm too. Go and browse, and you get your Ghostly Bride free in any order you place until 5th November.
