It will be like most of Vanguard Miniatures' range: metal.

We've been getting some questions regarding the stock, so here's a quick update:
What's happening here at VGM update.

Receiving a lot of mail asking after various products so I thought i'd roll out a quick state of play update.

Currently on order and or awaiting delivery, Onslaught minis latest releases plus a general re-stock but with the sheer size of Onslaughts range now I have had to priorities which items to re-stock first, another order for those items I could not afford this time round should be submitted next month.

Wasteland Games re-stock is currently casting, no idea on an ETA on this order as of yet. The re-stock of the 3mm resin buildings from Gregster's Lab are also in production as well as the 6mm shanties, an initial small re-stock should be with me soon with the rest to follow once the resin supplier delivers.

Troublemaker Games plastic terrain sets are also on re-order and expected very soon.

I have several new 3mm and 6mm items coming out over the coming weeks myself plus a continuous flow of re-stock items are coming in most weeks.

Kind regards John


Also, another teaser of the Eagle Dropship:


And expect the Felis Stealth Ship to be released in the coming weeks...

So this happened...

Novan Elites Spiculum Heavy Fighter - £7.00

Set contains:

2 x Spiculum heavy fighters

2 x rocket clusters

I hate to sound like a broken record, but will that stealth ship be in resin?

Most likely metal for now considering it's a rather tiny ship (30mm long).

In the meantime, 6mm reinforcements for the Novan Regulars have arrived!

Novan Winter Assault Grenadiers - £6.50

Amongst the most elite of the regular human armies of Tusculum Nova are the Household Guard, these detachments act as specialist assault grenadiers during times of war, armed with the best laser beamers and inferno dischargers, equipped with the best reactive armour, and expertly trained until they are an infantry force of almost unmatched lethality.

Set contains: 40 x Novan Winter Assault Grenadiers.

4 x sergeants

4 x squad automatic weapon (SAW) gunners

4 x light micro-wave projector gunners

4 x two man flamethrower teams

20 x laser riflemen

https://vanguardminiatures.co.uk/shop/novan-winter-assault-grenadiers/

Novan Regulars Samson Armoured Utility Tractor - £7.00





The Samson armoured tractor is utilised across Tusculum Novas regular forces as a tractor, towing supplies and heavy support weapons and also as a battlefield run around and even in some cases as a light assault carrier capable of transporting 5 men.

Set contains: 8 x Samson armoured tractors.

Figure shown for scale not included in set.

Well, get some Titanicus models and then tell them that those Titans would need some armies to go with them.

Or try to get your locals into Titanicus, only to have them scared off GW's rates, and then pitch them 3mm gaming!

Also expect the Novan Elites – Forefront Platoon with jumppacks back in stock. Hopefully in the coming weeks:


Another new tank for the 6mm Novan Regulars coming soon, the Centurion Hammer and Hunter:



And for those in need for some Titanicus of 3mm terrain, our collaboration with Gregster's Lab continues:

About how big will that drop ship be?

And is there an estimate for the stealth and system ships?

The Netherlands

The Stealth Ship is about 30mm long. The civilian ships vary in size, between 15mm and 20mm long.

The Eagle Dropship is about the size of Forge World's old Aeronautica Imperialis Thunderhawk if I'm not mistaken.

I thought it handy to perhaps share it here as well. I've been wanting to show what can be done with Vanguard Miniatures' models, as well as showing some artwork, background, WIP's, etc. So I've opened up a Tumblr page.

Check it, interact with it, share it.

Need assault troops?

Well, it's taken an age but finally the Mk2 sculpts of the 6mm Novan Elites Forefront with jump packs set is back in stock. Sorry it took so long before release but these things happen sometimes, hopefully it was worth the wait.


Novan Elites – Forefront Platoon (with jumppacks) - £6.50


Most Praetorian armies from Tusculum Nova can call on a wide range of infantry unit types, from conscript inductees to royal marines, but a few are able to employ greater assets.

Encased in thick armour, wearing helms reminiscent of the knights of old Earth.

Forefront units use jet turbines and close combat shear-swords to hold the front lines, whilst Affray Units lay down covering fire.

40 x Forefront Elites with Jump packs.

4 x sergeants

4 x micro-wave gunners

32 x pistol and sword armed Elites.

On a sidenote, our friends at Gregster's Lab have a crowdfunding campaign running. Their terrain should be very compatible with Vanguard Miniatures' 3mm and 6mm ranges.

Here's the campaign!
