WARFARE IN THE UNITED STATES

I am delighted to announce that Le Roi Soliel Miniatures based out of Texas will be the official stockist and agent for Warfare Miniatures in the United States. Bob Miller is a long time enthusiast for the period and a genuine lover of all things 17th century and military. Bob is a fine chap and known to attendees of the League of Augsburg Weekender games at Derby.

Le Roi Soliel will carry all Warfare codes and stock Beneath the Lily Banners. Bob will carry battalion packs as sold here on the site. I believe he intends to trade at certain US conventions going forward.

Le Roi Soliel will also carry Quindia Studios flags of the period in the 50 and 40mm sizes.

Bob should be up and running very shortly. I wish him every success and will support his glorious endeavour in every way possible.

Good Luck Le Roi Soliel!

WOW! Did I miss the boat on this one. I have to look over the catalog again and get my order together. I wanted to take advantage of the last month Warfare special, but the shipping was getting too out of control.

Just went to the site, have a few questions; shipping costs, any specials and prices?

Thanks again.

Hello Gentlemen;

After many trials and tribulations, the site is finally up and running at leroisoleilminiatures.com. As a new enterprise, we are still feeling our way so any feedback is greatly appreciated. Meanwhile, we are striving to bring you Warfare miniatures at affordable prices and will from time to time run specials as postage, exchange rates and other factors permit.

Greg, in reading, thanks for your input.

Best regards and happy gaming to all,

Bob Miller

That is great, Bob!

I have been waiting to post the announcement on my blog for when the shop was active.

Thanks for the link too, but might I trouble you to change the link's destination to my blog at http://quindiastudios.blogspot.com

The other site hasn't been updated in years. I leave it up because the ECW and Warhammer 40k galleries still prove to be a popular destination... My plan is eventually to post a new site with the blog incorporated in the design, but it will be a miracle if I ever find the time!

You are also welcome to use any of the photos from the 1690 tab of my blog for the gallery or any other area of your site - all of the models are Warfare Miniatures.

Again, thanks for the link - I will promote your site on the blog whenever there is news!

Thanks Clarence;

I will update the link. I will also make use of your generous offer of photos. When one of the finest miniature painters in the U.S. makes such an offer, you don't pass it up.

Thanks again.

All,
Just placed an order with Bob over at Le Roi Soleil site. I'm pretty excited about getting my hands on the infamous Warfare figures.

All,
Well I finally got my first wave of Warfare Minis, and I must say, I'm very impressed. I mostly got cavalry, and really enjoy the arm option.

Bob, over at Le Roi Soleil worked with me on getting my first order in. What a great guy...thanks again Bob!

Well big decision here, should I base for Donnybrook or based for my Scanian Wars? We'll see.

I'm just wrapping up on painting more Polish cavalry; Tartars, Pancerni and of course more Winged Hussars.

Hello Greg;

Thanks for the compliment. Can I suggest that you base for Donneybrook but use thin trays to hold the Donnybrook bases when you game the Scanian War? I am planning to do this in order to do some actions with "Snapphaner" guerillas in the war. It's good to see someone else here in the States interested in this area.

Thanks again.

Bob,
That's a thought. I've made movement trays as well as something similar for other gaming periods. I have to look at that. I base my BLB armies in four infantry and two cavalry to a base. The size of bases I use are 1.5 X 1.5. That can be a bit challenging to slotted bases. Will have to make a proto-type and see how that works.
