Pretty quiet on the Olympus front these days - haven't seen much of Osiris lurking in the background. Anyone know what current status may be of future releases or is Croc still in the holding pattern left by the Hyperborea investment last year? Still looking for front rank sword arms, release of the shields etc - not to mention Trojans, Amazons, Athenians, light troops....I could go on. Anyway, what's up?

We're quietly working on all this.

Going into our next set of molds are the new shields for Mycenae Battle Honors (shield with spikes and shield with a boar emblem). I've also made a sprue of Mycenaean sword arms, compatible with the front rank bodies (this as we had a group of players who specifically asked for these on another thread.) The Demigod models are also being remolded (finally!), and should be available soon as well.

Ares time soon, or soon soon?

Sorry had to.

These will be going onto the website as soon as the molds are completed and we have production castings to sell. I would guess a month or so for he shields and arms, possibly a bit longer for the Demigods as they are much more complicated miniatures.

Fair enough sir. I just had to mess with you on that earlier post. I am feeling particularly sarcastic this weekend. Not sure why.

Good good glad to hear even though I don't have an Olympus army... yet it's good to know for when I sort out my plans for getting a shop :) hehe... Keep up the good work and hope to be playing lots of game with people soon.

Say, is the shield with the boar motiff a large rectangle like the other mycenaean shields, or a diffferent shape?

The new shields are conversions of the last batch, they have the same basic shape.

Super impressive Osiris. I was just going to convert the tusk ones myself, but it looks like you have bypassed my financial sense and appealed to my collector's nature and my love of pretty minis. Thanks, I think.

Can't say I'm a Mycenaean player, but dang if those shields don't look super pretty.
