Why Play Alien Squad Leader? Written by Alex Self this article explains what the game is all about. 


Two of the most popular codes in the HOF Range of 15mm science fiction owe their origins to Alien Squad Leader and these are the HOF27 Maginot Defence Turret and the HOF28 Charger APC.

HOT110 Medieval Wyrm 15mm monster last release of 2016!

The last release of the year for us at 15mm.co.uk is into the HOT 15mm Fantasy range but it would be equally at home in any 15mm Renaissance range of imagination too much like our Da Vinci Tank. Designed by Sam Croes and inspired by his love of odd creatures and monsters, taken from the works of the legendary Ulisse Aldrovandi (Aldrovandus) we present HOT110 Medieval Wyrm!  Go HERE or read on.


HOT110 Medieval Wyrm
This pack contains two identical white metal 15mm scale monsters.  About 20mm tall and cast in one piece this creature is inspired by drawings of Dragons made in the sixteenth century by the artist Aldrovandus.  Suitable for use in fantasy settings and for imaginations of Renaissance Europe too. Price 4.00GBP per pack.  Go HERE.




Here are some images of the new Wyrm comparing it to a 15mm tall Human peasant with pitchfork as well as some of our other monsters such as HOT3 Ogre and HOT103 Cockatrice too.  


Also the original half millenium old artwork from which the creature was inspired.  You can learn more about Aldrovandus on this link.


We will have more releases in the HOT range in 2017 and don't forget to get yourself some festive fun with our 15mm Festive Range including Evil Snowmen, Killer Xmas Trees, Snow Monsters and now Psycho Presents too.  Go HERE.

Thanks for Reading,

Last Month of 2016 and what's coming....

Here are 15mm.co.uk we are looking forward to a week off at Christmas and again thank you for your support during the Four Day Mega Offer at the end of November.  There is a lot happening here for 2017 but this month we have some surprises for you including a free USEME Scenario and a new HOT 15mm small monster code too.  All in the first half of December.


We have had a lot of kind words and nice emails about our 15mm Festive Range and its new pack SN04 Psycho Presents.  I had not intended to do a new free USEME scenario for this year as I had not been asked much but over last weekend that changed.  


So..later this month and featuring the gun toting Presents against the Security Force Alpha lads from the previous scenarios...I will put up here...'Wrapped for Trouble'.


If you are interested in the USEME Series you can see it HERE.

Thanks for Reading and Merry Christmas!

The Tavshar Archon 15mm Mechas and Bundles Outlined

To be released last weekend in November on 15mm.co.uk the brand new range of 15mm Tavshar Mecha and bundles plus reaction forces for Loud Ninja Games to expand the Yandrassi collection of awesomeness!  If you missed the Introduction to the Tavshar Archon Mecha article by Eli Arndt with sketch by Sam Croes have a look and a read.  Upon release all of the codes will be HERE on the website.  Ain't this just the most lovely 15mm mecha you have seen recently!



"Archons are elite war machines, piloted by Tavshar that have reached the rank of Prime and shown their prowess in battle above other Primes, making them the elite among elites. Archon is not only the name of the mecha but also the new rank of those who pilot them. Each Archon selects its weapon load based on its mission or sometimes the preference of the individual Archon where command edict does not override personal choice. A mix of weapon types is common, allowing Archons operating in force to counter unexpected threats. Archons are most often tasked with providing heavy support to lesser troops alone or in small groups, but may be used as strike teams by themselves."

Above are two shots of IAF036A Tavshar Guardian Archon mecha built in one of its variations and pose and then painted by the legendary Sam Croes.  There are six different mecha choices and each has a different weapon load out and is very posable.  An advanced level white metal kit which is supplied with a selection of heads to use.  When built each stands 55mm to 60mm tall.
