On to Fredricksburg!

Besides getting ready for Historicon, getting new products in, and so on, we are also in the middle of a photo shoot for our up and coming American Uncivil War rules and thought you might like to see a few.

A Very Perry Historicon!

This year's Historicon is shaping up to be a bonanza of Perry Miniatures goodness for Architects of War!  We just received the first pictures for the special Exclusive Historicon figure:





This wonderful 28mm Civil War miniature will be available at the show in limited quantities. It is specially sculpted for the show in Fredericksburg.  How do you get this figure?  It will be free with the purchase of 3 boxed sets of any Perry Plastics at the Architects of War stand while supplies last.

But what about those who can't make it to Historicon I hear you cry??  Well we will also be offering this through our website after Historicon for any purchases made of any three Perry plastic boxed sets. You won’t even have to tick a box or anything , we will just include it.

Don't forget that Historicon is also home to the First Annual Perry Miniatures Painting Contest sponsored by Architects of War.  You can find all the details about the contest HERE.  We will also have a second exclusive figure for those entering the Painting Contest (one per person, while supplies last) - the Flag Painter.
