Need a bit of help identifying the parts on this.  The part of the left is the Tireur which I assume is the turret but what is the other part on the right "Arbalète + support" ?  I've looked on the main parts of the standard chariot but cant see it anywhere.  Is this the Dwarf figure?

In fact:

QuoteBaliste du Char nain - Tireur
Is the dwarf.

QuoteBaliste du Char nain - Arbalète + support
Is the crossbow with the part holding the crossbow.

I think so. Especially if they target the nothern american market with their prepainted plastic... :icon_ermm:

I wasn't a big fan of Rackham but I will miss the metal.

I shall delete them from my favourites as soon as the metal is gone !!!!

If anyone hears of any Rackham sales please let me know.  I have everything I need from SimpleMiniatures.com and WargamesMarket.com hasnt got anything I need.  Hopefully a few more will clear out stock soon

And they are real twits about it.  One lady at the booth told me to "go back to the Reaper junk" if I wanted metal...  "All the good companies are switching over"

But Reaper too is going to do prepainted plastic  :icon_cool:

Baldemyr

Yup-at least as an option. If they keep it an option its fine-but metals and unpainted plastics must be there as well.

Not all of it, about 75% is. An arbalest is a giant crossbow (or bolt thrower) so I would've geussed it wasn't the dwarf without asking :p.

QuoteAll the good companies are switching over

I would've laughed at that.
