Today we were meant to releasing some new 6mm buildings – but my airbrush has been playing up something rotten and I haven’t been able to paint the said items, and since we have a rule about not releasing anything new until they’re properly painted and photographed, they are going to have to wait*. Which has put me in a somewhat grumpy mood today (no change there, says the Brigadieress…).<\/p>\n

So instead I’ll add something which we were originally saving for next week, not quite as exciting but potentially just as useful.<\/p>\n

The excellent new Osprey Horizon Wars<\/a> rules use D12s as the standard dice type. When I first looked into the rules after buying my copy at Salute, I realised that I didn’t have enough D12s, even in my rather large dice box – it’s just not something I’ve ever needed lots of. There has also been at least one post (maybe more) on the HW Facebook page<\/a> asking about getting hold of D12s. So we’ve got hold of a big bag of D12s from our suppliers and we’re now listing those on our website in packs of 10. We have them in four colours – red, orange, yellow and black.<\/p>\n

\"Dscf3118\"<\/p>\n

ACC-023R<\/a> – D12 (red) x10 – \u00a33.50
\nACC-023O<\/a> – D12 (orange) x10 – \u00a33.50
\nACC-023Y<\/a> – D12 (yellow) x10 – \u00a33.50
\nACC-023K<\/a> – D12 (black) x10 – \u00a33.50<\/p>\n
