More new Stuff

We got lucky and now have a rack of Woodland Scenics with materials for basing, trees, water, ground cover about 100 new items.  We also got a BIG restock of Vallejo paints enough to fill up our 72 color display especially since we were down to about  half dozen colors on the rack.  Most of this should go up on the web site in a week or so.
We're still waiting for our restock of Trent figures and new Ainsty Castings, hopefully soon.
This coming week will bring another chapter to my Mafrican Campaigns wihen the first hunt takes place.
Then we're off to Cold Wars, come see us we're across from On Military Matters and RLBPS.

NEW STUFF

Our second shipment from Ainsty Castings has arrived and is up on the site.
Also we just purchased terrain making supplies from Woodland Scenics, this will go up online soon and will travel to Cold Wars, Little Wars and Fall in this year.  There is all sorts of great stuff for adding to bases and making woods, bushes, tall grass patches and a myriad of other terrain pieces.
We have restocked Killer Bee and Tiger miniatures, and are awaiting our Trent Miniatures order.

On my own gaming side I receive three sets of rules for the colonial period from Two Hour Wargames -Great stuff- also to add to our gaming I got the risk and rewards deck for All Things Zombie.
For my Mafrican Campaigns I received the "Governors Guard" a unit of Indian Infantry and cavalry from Tradition of London.
Also I have nearly finished my Hinterland Naval force for Mafrica.  Histoifigs has sent the maps I ordered and I had them laminated so I can use grease pencils on them.
After reading on LAF about converting the Nina ship into a felucca which is photo'd on my http://www.mafricancampaigns.blogspot.com/
Soon a new chapter.

Ruritanian Troops

Presnted below are my Ruritanian troops.
This top photo is of the regular army, and as you can see in all the photos the tie in for each unit is purple, hats, pants stripe, or shoulder boards.

This photo belowshows the Sikh unit used in it's Mafrican colony.

 In the photo below the foot artillery is on the left while the horse artillery is on the right.

 This photo shows the Jaeger unit.
 This is weird but this photo shows the Ruritanian Marines.
 This photo shows the colonial cavalry shown here on camels but could also be mounted on horses.  In the center are three figures: in the center, in blue shirt, is Rudolf Rassendyllon the left is King Rudolph, on the right is the Queen.  Somewhere I have another of the king and queen.



This shows all I have painted to date.
