Retained Burgeon Bike and Base new 28mm Ion Age

“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

We present the first new releases for The Ion Age Range (28mm) of the Spring Mega Event with the others shown later this month.  Our first 28mm scale vehicle in the range!  Get the pack or each piece on its own.

IB87 Retained Burgeon 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.  The value pack has a saving and contains the resin one piece bike along with a metal Retained Knight rider (requires assembly) and a 60mm long textured bike base As well as the value pack the other new codes are IA246 Burgeon Bike and  IA247 Retained Knight Rider if you wish these on their own.

IB97 Bike Base:  This value pack contains four identical resin bases of 3mm thickness with a saving. Each has a textured top ideal for 28mm Bikes and with cartouche edging (just as our other resin bases) makes for easy lifting.  The bases are 60mm long and 25mm wide.

If you wish to field the forces of the Retained on your table there are a great many of them to choose from such as one from IB70 Retained Knight Gun Team above.  See the website range for ‘Retained’ on a filtered seek of value packs and all as singles.  There are also 'Platoon Packs' which each contain two additional free poses. IAP01 Retained Knight Lance gives you sixteen armoured troops paying for fourteen of them.

Work continues on MOTH 2.0 which will include game rules for smaller vehicles such as Bikes, Portable Weapons and Battlesuits like those found in Patrol Angis.

Thanks for your Time.

SFA Trencher Bike 15mm packs released into HOF Range!

Two new packs have been added to the HOF 15mm Science Fiction range in our science fiction release for July 2018.  Security Force Alpha (SFA) now has tracked bikes great for any game system and fitting right in with the rest of the expansive range of poses.  Go HERE or read on for more.

“All across the core star systems and on Terra itself there is a need for security after, during and even before the high rollers and expensive kit arrives in the battle zone. Security Force Alpha is just that force filling in as police, paramilitaries, mercenaries and planetary militias too. They are the faceless grunts that do the thankless jobs needed by all those who govern, control or enforce. Use them as you will from the near to the far future!”

Alternative Armies is now embarking upon expanding the Security Force Alpha (SFA) array of codes within the HOF 15mm Science Fiction Range in conjunction with prolific wargamer Fred Richards who has a vision of space colony warfare in the near future which we find captivating and wanted to get in on.  From the mind of Mr Richards and the guys at Alternative Armies comes two brand new packs of SFA Trencher Bikes as the first offering of this new sci-fi gaming awesome vision!

HOF115 SFA Trencher Bikes

This pack contains two identical resin 15mm scale tracked bikes each with a fully armoured SFA (Security Force Alpha) Trooper in helmet riding it. The bike is meant for very rough terrain on Earth or any Colonial Planet and is armed with a centre mounted projectile weapon.  It is at home in any near future setting.  The bike is mounted on a thin integral base to make mounting on larger bases (such as the 30mm round we used in the pictures) it simple.  This integral slim base can be removed with ease if you wish to lay the bike on its side or for diorama uses.  Supplied unpainted.  5.00GBP per pack.  Go HERE.

HOF116 SFA Trencher Bike Command

This pack contains two resin 15mm scale tracked bikes. One with a fully armoured SFA (Security Force Alpha) Trooper riding it bare headed.  One bike with no rider upon it. The bike is meant for very rough terrain on Earth or any Colonial Planet and is armed with a centre mounted projectile weapon.  It is at home in any near future setting.  The bike is mounted on a thin integral base to make mounting on larger bases (such as the 30mm round we used in the pictures) it simple.  This integral slim base can be removed with ease if you wish to lay the bike on its side or for diorama uses. You can choose from a pack or singles of the poses within the pack.  Supplied unpainted.  5.00GBP per pack.  Go HERE.

Here are some scale and scenic pictures of the new bikes alongside other Security Force Alpha vehicles, structures and infantry.
