For Sale (SOLD)

I have a pair of units painted for the Grand Alliance period for sale (raising a little extra money for Christmas). These battalions appeared in the first edition of Beneath the Lily Banners (page 47) and were bloodied at the Boyne at Historicon 2010. I've been hanging on to them for nostalgic reasons, but I have plans to build new armies for the period with a line of soon to be released minis (more news here when that project is ready).

French Orleans


French Champagne


The flags easily slide off of the poles so these units could represent dozens of different French or Dutch units from the period! The units are obviously based for Beneath the Lily Banners on 45x50mm stands. These photos aren't the best, but all of the models are painted to the level of this chap below...


Payment is via Paypal preferably and I will ship anywhere in the world at cost. Send me a note at clarence@quindia.com for further details (and add a reply here to let me know so I can keep an eye in case my spam blocker defeats you).

Cover Progress

Coming along nicely... the banner is a place holder until Barry sends me a photo of the actual flag. I was just tired of looking at the white flag!

R2E Weekender in the USA

Barry Hilton has been running mini-conventions in the UK we've been calling 'weekenders'. These are two day affairs featuring huge tables, thousands of figures, and a chance to play Republic to Empire with the author. Last night Barry and I discussed the possibility of running these events in the USA, near my home in Chesapeake, VA. I'm wondering if the level of interest warrants him flying over to run the game. Chime in, either here or on the Fighting Talk forum, if you would be interested in attending such an event and if so, if you could supply troops for the event (not required)...

Seven Days of BLB2 Previews - Day 7

The new style of charts is based on one that I found while searching through period manuscripts.


That's it for now. I'll post more progress on the cover in the next few weeks and maybe some more of the artwork as time to publication gets closer.

Seven Days of BLB2 Previews - Day 6

We placed an emphasis on including more in the way of diagrams in this version to help sort out tricky mechanics...
