More options of Woebetides "Arabs"

Until this weekend I'd never heard of Wargames Atlantic.  They seem to be a fairly new manufacturer making hard plastic 28mm historical, fantasy and sci-fi miniatures.

What's caught my eye is that they are offering for pre-order some Afghan warriors:


Going by the description they are aimed at gamers interested in refighting actions on the Northwest Frontier during the Victorian era but the box contains jezails and muskets that push the start of their usefulness back to about 1700.  Just what we want!

I'd suggest that these chaps might do for our "Arab" pirates or for sepoys in European service.

At £25 a box (with discounts for multiple orders) they aren't far off the price you'd typically pay for Perry or Warlord plastics.  A box of 40 figures would get you a perfectly good force for Sharp Practice.

They look a lot more suitable than the Gripping Beast ones 👍
