Frequently asked questions

What do I need besides the starter set?

Paints, brushes, plastic glue and dice. A tape measure you probably already have at home, everything else is in the set. You'll find paints and glue under Painting and Accessories.

Do I need an opponent?

Not to begin with: many starter sets contain both armies. So you can start as a pair, or just build and paint at your own pace first.

What's the best system to start with?

Bolt Action. Second World War, the rulebook is available in full in German, and you need a manageable number of figures. If you prefer something smaller, take SAGA with a warband of a handful of figures.

Do the figures come painted?

No. They come unpainted and usually need assembling - painting is part of the hobby.

How fast do you deliver?

Anything in stock goes out within one to three working days, shipping free with no minimum order. If the card says "on order", it takes about three weeks.

Still not sure where to start?

Drop me a line about what appeals to you - I'll put something fitting together. By phone works too.
