Salute 2011 Releases

[clam]

Only one knight of relan so far. I should at least do a repose on the head at some point, maybe before I get him into proper production.
I can't believe there are quite so many new releases myself - my fault for not getting things finished off over the last few months!

Is it the exact same Nobilis variant used for both the Relan Knight and for Danomar? Look much alike  I would certainly like some kind of head variation, please  Looking forward seeing them close up - right now it looks only to be heads (Fubarnii) that variates, is that right?

[Lost Egg]

Ooo that's an interesting building - where can I get one of them.

I hear there's quite a few up for sale along the Delgon border of the Empire...just make sure you get it insured.

The basic knight is a heavy conversion of danomar. The mount has been reposed, the armour has been simplified etc. I think it looks in keeping with danomar, but not tooo similar. Chris and Ben both have some to paint, so we might see those some time soon!
Mor pictures to follow later today.

No need for that  If he is different in pose/armour, I've made up my mind - so check your PM

[Carcharoth]

Thank you 
More pics of the knights here, along with pics of the new knight's spears and shields.

[clam]

My pleasure - wish I had the money to buy a full Delgon force right now, too - but that will have to wait a bit. But I can promise "I'll be back"

And the difference between the Relan Knights and Danomar is very clear, now thanks.

And I'll have to add those new spears to my order. The current ones are so fragile. Been wanting to replace them with brass rod, but thicker ones will be a lot better. Will I need to PM you or will you remember doing the PayPal invoice.

[Jubal]

New spears? Great! Will the militia have thicker spears too?

[Carcharoth]

Nothing for the militia just yet. I would like to do some more militia variants though, so maybe somewhen. I'd also like to revisit the striders lance as well at some point...

@clam: I'll have to get back to about postage and freebies anyway, so just remind me then!

[Geckilian]

The Strider's lance isn't too bad actually, it holds up very well - the original Knight spears are a shade thinner, and bend like crazy.

Postage is inevitable, so not much talk about that - but freebies  -definitely like to hear about those. Does they really apply to on line sales as well? Though that was 'show only' - but a rather nice surprise, of course.

And a variant of the strider/strider's lance would be well received here.

loving the delgon shock troopers, will certainly have to get a closer look at salute! at some point in the future will you be looking to add a shock trooper commander?

[Carcharoth]

The plan for the Delgon forces was always to avoid any captains and the likes - that role is generally filled by the priests. A few seasoned veterans following on from the first Retribution Attacks might be cool though, and the shocktroopers would certainly lend themselves to that 

There'll be some freebies for mail order. Maybe not so much choice, but I'll sort you (or anybody else who orders before Salute) out with a few bits and pieces.

ok so whats the score with mail ordering i ordered some delgon stuff last week from hasslefree, but can we go straight to you ? im not quite sure how this is all working, or will it be best to grab as much as physically possible at salute shove some notes in your hand and run to the doors saying i cant believe it?

[matthewk]

what might work would be the option to upgrade a stormtrooper to a stormtrooper veteran, maintaining the fact that as a veterans they work as a unit and wouldnt need a commander leading them...they just know what to do!

I've just put up a new thread to answer that question. Have a look here.

You can order directly from me. If you order in advance I'll set the models aside for you, so you won't miss out if I've understocked on anything. Cash on the day would be best for payment, but if you would rather pay by paypal then that will also work!

I think I should have plenty of stock of most things, but I'm slightly concerned that there might be a shortage of KalJoran shocktroopers...
