Welcome back to TAG in 2010, and thank you to everybody that made 2009 a record year for us.

This release, the first of the New Year, is a lot of tidying up from last year, all these items shown as listed on our shopping cart today are items that have been specifically requested by TAG customers which i had promised to add to the cart before Christmas, so this is us catching up and clearing the decks before the next full Spanish Century release.

These are the new items;

Its been a while since we released any new Ultra-Modern 28mm miniatures, the last being our Russian infantry in helmets almost three years ago.

In that time gamers have asked for a small number of additions to our existing ranges, mainly more infantry support weapons. So in response to those that have asked, we have returned to these ranges, using the original dolls and parts to make them compatible with the older minis, and added two new packs of 28mm miniatures.

Tudor Warfare is the second supplement for Bad War - the Renaissance battle rules. As the title suggests, the armies and battles of the Tudor and Elizabethan wars are covered here. Inside players can find army lists for the Anglo-Scottish Wars as well as details for the Royal and Rebel armies of the Western Rebellion.

New onto the shopping cart today are three new packs of mounted miniatures for our Spanish Century 16th century range of 28mm miniatures.

These new pack are designed for our Spanish and Italian ranges, one pack of Jinetes for the Spaniards, one pack of Elmeti for the Italians and one pack of Albanian Stradiots, primarily for the Italians but also useful for other 16th Century armies including French and Imperials

Mercenary Scum is a wargame supplement designed to be used with Escalade, the skirmish rules for the seventeenth century. Six scenarios are included in this supplement - with a brief summary below:

Grand Ambition is another set of rules that uses the AB One system.

Having covered the Thirty Years War period and the English Civil War with previous versions, I wanted to finish off the seventeenth century by covering the wars of James II, Louis XIV and William III.

This later period saw the rise of the standing army: regular troops, funded by the state and employed all year round. This period also saw significant developments in weaponry and tactics and it is these changes that I hope are reflected in the rules. Included in the Grand Ambition rule book are sections detailing with the organisation of troops and the type of formations and tactics deployed.
