The 15 Mill

[Leslie BT]

Also Miles a quick article on sourcing bits and pieces, just by keeping your eyes open.

Particularly your industrial PBI table.

This image came up in the 15mm fantasy thread on facebook. I thought it kind of described many of the issues we have talked about?

Problem with that link Duncan

I agree we should include fantasy 15mm too.

[Leman (Andy)]

Really! Must we? Should we also grow long hair, wear Iron Maiden T-shirts, and give up washing?

[martin goddard]

Iron Maiden shirts are right out.

[Colonel Kilgore]

Iron Maiden shirts are right out.

As is long hair, for many of us, sadly...

[Leman (Andy)]

Whatever else happens please don't overburden rules with pointless teenage hyperbole. Saga 2 has done just that as it changes from a set of Dark Age rules to a set which extends into the Middle Ages to a set which now encompasses all Ancient, Medieval and fantasy stuff, with that maddening doom-laden, blood soaked despondency oft encountered in the mystifying, yet turbulent gut-wrenching and sword cleaving realm of the ravening hordes of Gothmorlobbybottom. (0h, for god's sake!!!)

Excuse Me. One half of my T shirts are Iron Maiden ! The other half being Weymouth Levellers....
Pick on the younger less significant bands that are in the charts please ! Thank you.

But anyway. Ancients i can understand, but fantasy ? Like Sci Fi has it got a big presents in 15mm ?  I suppose they should get a mention every so often, but not  enough say for every month ! (Or Bi monthly or whenever the "Journal" is going to be published?)
Other than the likes of Hammers Slammers ( which our friend Matt Hays does a lot of) which is big in its own world, you don't see a lot around. Most of these subjects and games seemed to be more 25-28mm these days. I could be wrong ?
Medieval, Renaissance, Pirates etc, along with ACW, Western, Sudan and 20th Century  seem to be the main trains of interest at least on here.

Peter Pig do make a fantasy range.
It's 15mil so include it,if people want to send an article in, no guirentie it will be published.
Fantasy players may very well play historical as well

[Sean Clark]

I have played and still do play fantasy....mainly because it's played a lot at my club. But 15mm fantasy is something I've not seen other than the occassionl HotT for which I own the Peter Pig Dwarves!
As Stewart at a if someone wishes to write an article then that's fine by me. I don't see it taking over half of the magazine which will be authored in the main by forum members and I don't see much activity in the fantasy section.

I've just purchased 15mm witches, werewolves, dire wolves, wraiths and vampires for Witchfinder General. Took quite some tracking down, so some 15mm fantasy info would have been really useful.

[martin goddard]

I think the money/space can be found for fantasy and sci fi. Not a problem fo the Mill.  We just need lots of grist.

Work is starting on the first quarter 2019 magazine.

There will be an editorial by someone.  I shall do the first one because........no real reason, just ego.  The editorial will promote 15mm, but not denigrate other sizes. I intend to classify the main sizes as 2/3mm,  5/6mm,  10/12mm, 15mm, 18/20mm, 25/28mm, 30mm, 40mm, 54mm and 1/6th. This in itself should start some discussion.  Within this discussion we could discuss what scales fit with 15mm. Probably 120th through to 87th.  Might even try to dispel the myth that the average man is 6ft high!

The magazine will have a moving set of aims. The overall intention is that the magazine can be "driven" by anyone, as the years and maybe i too go by.

Once the magazine 1 is out, we can then "show it around"  to give guidance to potential contributors. 
Cover price will remain as zero pence. There will be no formal advertising, but reviews can "glow". Manufacturers can even self review .

All this is quite exciting I feel.
