New Postage Rates…

May 15th 2007

Well, I broke down and updated our postage rates. The USPS isn’t as kind as they used to be, rate-wise at least.

Our chart does not match the USPS chart exactly. I’ve done some combining of zones and rounding of prices. It should all balance out in the long run.

As always, we will do out best to get you the lowest shipping rate possible, and will even refund if you over pay for shipping (well, a refund within reason – meaning more than $1.00 over paid).

For our new rates please visit our shipping information page: historifigs.com/shipping.htm

New 40mm molds…

Just finished (last night) new molds for:

    Three different castings, in the same charging positions, with three spears and halberds.

Civil War Bug!

May 8th 2007

For some reason, I’ve caught the Civil War bug! American Civil War that is…

I can’t really figure out why I’m suddenly hooked on ACW war games, but I am. I have a few projects in progress and have ideas for another one or two.

The two figure scales I am working with are N-Gauge and 40mm. N-gauge are getting new production molds (and are on sale this month). The 40mm molds have been done for a while (but I might add a couple more, just to make production easier) and are on sale this month as well…

Ross Macfarlane pointed out that the website did not have the full listing of 40mm ACW figures, so I’ve fixed that and I’ll post the 40mm figure listing at the end of this post.

My 40mm project is a rather simple one – individually based figures and I’ll be using a The Sword and the Flame like set of rules. Still need to fully define the rules, but I’m getting there.

The N-gauge project is still taking shape, but I want to do big battles, so I’m looking at a figure ratio of 1:33 or maybe 1:50. Units will be 2 or 3 stands (depends on which ratio I go with). The game rules will be “old School” in nature, maybe I’ll borrow bits from Scruby’s Fire and Charge as well as Zocchi’s Hard Tack. At least that’s what I’m looking at doing right now, things may change…

I do have a couple more ACW themed projects in mind (neither is started just yet). One is nothing but new figures. I have no game plans for the figures, just some new figures. The other project is both figures and a game – new rules and new figures. Think Action; think Heroes, or at least heroic deeds.

I’ll be sure to chronicle my progress on the Table Top Talk website, so give me a few weeks and check in to see how the projects are going…
