Fifteen new 28mm Malig Space Goblins for the Shia Khan

 “The Maligs….Vermin. Savage and cruel with a taste for the sadistic and prone to acts of lunacy and utterly needless violence, the name given to their small green or mottled brown humanoids is Malig. Taken from records which make frequent mention of these creatures, second only to Legionaries, their name suits them. They are malicious and deadly. Maligs are Goblinoids and, while shorter and weaker than Humans, they are numerous in the extreme. Rather than seeming to define a formation many Legions treat a horde of Maligs as an attached source of cannon fodder. Cunning, cowardly but rather effective at killing, given superiority in numbers and opportunity, the Maligs should not be underestimated. With second rate armour and weapons and also some rather odd contraptions, the Maligs are often the bane of Planetary Militia or unfortunate Muster patrols. They are the lowest rung on the command ladder along with Betrayers.”

First new 28mm Malig Space Goblins in thirty years are here!  We have doubled the Goblins of the Khanate from the original fifteen by Kev Adams in the early 90’s to thirty poses with fifteen more by Sam Croes as three packs, as singles and as a platoon with two included free.  See the Shia Khan Empire in the massive 28mm Ion Age Range.

IAF184 Burgeon Retained Bike new 15mm with Patrol Angis rules

 “Among the ranks of the Retained Knights you will find the Burgeon. These knights are as adamant about the Code Gallant as any other but they take upon themselves an additional vow of loyalty that is beyond the duty of any others. For the Burgeon are the masters of the steeds. They are the riders of an animal which has no heart or legs but rather instead has an engine and thrusters which beat with as much if not more power than any creature's could. The Burgeon ride into battle upon the semi-sentient Ventus Model Steeds a unique type of repulsar and other bikes.” Academy Auto-Trainer Series 02, New Glastonbury, 4308 IC

Our last 15mm sci-fi release of the year is here and is roaring into sight.  The new Burgeon wheeled bike (Ventus Model 407 Steed) is added to the range.  You can see it above with a hulking Afara Strider in the livery of the Prydian Army.

IAF184 Burgeon Wheeled Bike: The Retained riders of the semi-sentient steed the Ventus. A sleek and speedy vehicle. The Regiments of the Prydian Army and the Marcher Barons alike has platoons that are mounted on bikes for added mobility and fire power.  Few have the reliability and rugged survivability as the Model 207. Used for scouting missions as well as battle roles it is popular with its riders. With this set you can depict the bike in action or idle or the rider on foot for maximum flexibility. Great for skirmishing and then combining with other Prydian codes for larger formations and battles.

This code comprises three different poses of 15mm scale resin miniatures. You can also purchase each pose from this code as a single miniature for maximum flexibility.  When selecting single poses they are numbered 1 through to 3, running left to right.

Check out all the BIKES in the massive 15mm Ion Age Range on ‘filter by’ search.  You can use this feature to trim down what you see so that looking for SHIA KHAN or GRIMA ROBOTS for example the website will show you all of these.  With nearly two hundred codes to choose from it can be daunting.  Also within each code you can choose the pack or singles from it.

Thank you for your Time.

Grima Robots 28mm wave two 16 new poses with Female Control Team

Last year we brought a new faction to the massive 28mm Ion Age range; Grima Combat Robots and their Planetary Militia controllers.  Those sixteen miniatures have now been joined by a further sixteen based on requests.  The range now nears three hundred poses with the second release of Grima Combat Robots with Female Planetary Militia Controllers!

The Planetary Militia are present on virtually every world of the Prydian Precinct and while the bulk of its troops are Men and Women there is another type of soldier who fights; the Grima Combat Robots. Under Human control at all times and incapable of independent thought these machines selflessly serve using the same weapons and equipment that regular Planetary Militia’s do. Specialist operators control them issuing programmed orders. 

If you wish to read in depth into the Guran Activation in 4302IC and about the Grima Robots there is an ARTICLE to glean more.

Winter Mega Event 2024 is on!  Until 5th December automatically 20% off at checkout plus 115 new releases and free code in every order shipped.  See the ARTICLE for details.

See all of the GRIMA ROBOTS or the PLANETARY MILITIA on the website refined searches.  These follow up on the brand new PORTABLE WEAPONS and their gun teams for Retained Knights, Muster, Militia plus the Shia Khan Empire last month.  Platoon’s give you two poses free, value packs give a small saving and as always every miniature is a single code too.  Here we go!

IP08 Grima Robot Rifle Platoon (IB92,IB93,IB94,IB95)

Sixteen miniatures with two included for free.

IB92 Grima Rifle Squad (IA265,IA266,IA267,IA268)

IB95 Planetary Miniature Female Grima Control Squad (IA277,IA278,IA279,IA280)

The Female Human operators and maintainers of the Combat Robots.

Here is a painted example of the typical uniforms of the Grima Combat Robot taken from the first releases last year.  Every planet has its own ideas on colouration with some core worlds matching the robots to regiments of Muster or even Retained powered plate armour.  See code IP06 for the first platoon and packs IB63 to IB66.

Currently in the works at Alternative Armies are playing drafts of MOTH 2.0 and early work on a new edition of Firefight as well.  These, among many other updates, will feature mechanics for the Grima Robots.  

Finally on Thursday 28th November towards the end of the Winter Mega Event we will have the release news of the new 28mm Malig Goblins..the first since 1993.

Thank you for Time
