A Call to Rally!!!

[T Prime]

Friends. Your help is needed!

The miniatures community is a small family of sorts and when someone in that family is in need, that family should try and rally support.  At least that's how I see things and I hope most would agree.

Andy Foster, a talented artist and friend, who heads up Heresy Miniatures in the UK has a problem.  His primary casting machine has gone down and needs to be replaced.  This is a serious situation for any small company and I know how very frustrating this exact kind of problem can be.  Andy does some really nice pieces and I have watched his line grow steadily over the years.  While it has always been my plan to relaunch and continue to support my two game engines, one of the ways I plan to do this was to find excellent products made by great people and incorporate their efforts into our systems.  This gives you the player new toys to play with without the onus being on me to manufacture everything in house.  Win -win.  Our games get an infusion of great models, and the other companies sell their models to new audiences.  No infringement of copyrights are implied or intended.

Heresy was one of the companies we planned on doing this for, the majority of the stats being for Cerulean Mists, Dominions and its companion games (being a fantasy heavy line).  So, in the spirit of helping out family, I would like to invite you to pool together a large order with us in order to help out our friend Andy.  This enables us to do three things,1) and most important, help Andy get back on his feet, 2) get us new models to play with and paint at a bulk discount, and 3) save us significantly on shipping.  You can check out his website at: www.heresyminiatures.com

Josh will set up a thread for this topic and review the discount, shipping arrangements and how money will be handled.  Once the order arrives here in the states, we will break it up for its individual destinations.  Sound simple? I hope so.  In the mean time, I will finish up the rest of the stats for dissemination online.  Thanks for your attention and support.

Cheers-
Thom

Post 2000!!  I will set the Heresy Massive Stateside order thread up in Uncle Thom's Trading Post.

[joshuaslater]

The unit sizes and individuals are in hand, and should be up tonight or tomorrow for those getting involved.  Thanks all for your support.

Cool. I like the big all Boris warband. The wasps and bugs will fit in perfectly with the swampies.

Here is the link for those who want to have a look. Heresy Miniatures

[joshuaslater]

Thanks Coil.  Thom will add individual links over the next two days on the master list.  We're making progress!!

[T Prime]

Links active, have fun.

[joshuaslater]

Deadline is tomorrow, October 23rd, 2008.  It may take me a day or so to collect all the orders and put it together.  Thanks all for participating.  I'll post a collective thread with the whole sh'bang to make sure we're not missing anything.

Cheers.

[joshuaslater]

The first package arrived today!!!!!!!!!!  I'm at the office, so I can't go through everything and sort out the whole sh'bang, or even tell if it contains the whole order.  We went large.  Anyway, look forward to getting your models sooner than later.

Thanks all for participating, and helping out.  We dropped $468 bucks on this!!!!!!! 

Thanks all for reimbursing me so quickly with paypal, as I'll need to throw it at the credit card bill.

Please check your pms, or better yet, send me a pm with mailing addys and how you want to get your goods.  Certified, etc.

Peace out.

[joshuaslater]

Thanks all for participating.  If another opportunity presents itself for an order from overseas to split shipping, let's organize accordingly.
