GZG CHRISTMAS SPECIALS
UPDATE - TUESDAY 28th NOVEMBER 2017:
2017 CHRISTMAS SPECIALS ARE NOW ON!
Please pop over to the webstore (www.gzg.com) and read the full details of the Christmas Offers for this year, which are NOW RUNNING as of Noon today.
Christmas dispatch times and ordering dates, and Christmas/New Year break:
Throughout the pre- and post-Christmas period, I will be trying to keep as much up to date with order dispatches as possible - but please understand that things can get VERY busy and some orders may well take a few days longer than normal to be shipped out. If there are any serious delays then I will try to let you know where possible.
Obviously we are all at the mercy of the postal services as to delivery times - but we would strongly recommend that international orders (especially for Australia, NZ etc) are placed no later than the first week of December if you want any real hope of them arriving before Christmas. With some larger orders it is possible to ship them via parcel courier (UPS etc) rather than by airmail, the couriers are faster and with much better online tracking - if you want me to do this, or just want more details on this shipping option, please ask when you place the order.
I will continue to dispatch orders up to Friday 22nd of December - after that date we will be CLOSED for the Christmas/New Year break, re-opening on Tuesday 2nd January 2018. The online webstore will remain "open" throughout the Christmas period so you can still place orders, but no orders will be processed and dispatched until after the 2nd of January.
Thanks to you all for your support and valued custom through 2017 - it's been a much better year all round than 2016 was, and I hope we can tempt you with even more new and exciting things in 2018!
Wishing you all a great Christmas (or whatever other seasonal festival you choose to celebrate around this time of year) and a safe, happy and gaming-filled New Year!
All the best,
Jon (GZG), 28th Nov 2017.

A (slightly late) HAPPY THANKSGIVING to all our many customers in the US - hope you are all having a great day with family and friends!
WARFARE went off very well last weekend, an
excellent show as always, smooth and well organised - we sold a LOT of
figures and starships, talked to loads of customers old and new, and
generally had a very good time. Since getting back I've been working
solidly on clearing the mailorders that didn't go before the show, they
are all pretty much up to date now with just a last couple of them to go
out tomorrow. Over the next few days I hope to get all the NEW RELEASES from the show up on to the store so they can be ordered, and on MONDAY (27th) I will be starting our usual CHRISTMAS SPECIALS,
which will then run until we close up for the Christmas/New Year break.
Full details of the offers will be posted over this weekend, so please
check back here soon.......
Thanks for reading,

Brigade Models Xmas Sale
Welcome once more to our Xmas sale. It's the
same format as in previous years again. Basically, that's 15% off all of
our models. Although there are a few exceptions*, this isn't
a '15% off selected items' or 'Up to 15% off' sale, it's a real '15%
off everything' sale. The sale will run for a month from today, ending
on Sunday December 17th.
So once again that's 15% off all of our models*
- Aeronef, starships, Celtos, Small Scale Scenery, Land Ironclads, 15mm
and 6mm tanks and figures, 10mm buildings, Squadron Commander, WWI
Belgians, Magpies ... and the newly added Hammer's Slammers 15mm models
are in there too.
And that's it - no minimum or maximum orders,
just a blanket discount which runs until Midnight GMT on December 17th
(remember the time difference if you're overseas). And we'll give you
plenty of warning before it ends. So what are you waiting for ? Go out
there and shop !
PLEASE READ THIS BIT
The website will still show the full price of each item, but the price that goes into the PayPal shopping cart will be the discounted one.In addition, because of the way that browsers keep hold of old versions of websites if you've previously visited them, you might want to refresh your browser (usually F5 or shift-F5 on Windows machines) to ensure that the new version of the shopping code is loaded with the discount in. If we get an order from which the discount has not been deducted then we will make a manual PayPal refund for the equivalent amount.
* - There are a few exceptions and conditions, as you might expect ... shipping will still be charged at the full rate, since we were unable to persuade the post office to match our offers. The discount covers our metal and resin models - it doesn't apply to rulebooks, dice, bases, Shapeways or anything else that we don't manufacture ourselves, simply because the margins on those items are much tighter. However, starter packs with rules, dice or bases in are covered. Even with these limitations, we're sure you'll agree it's a mighty fine offer !

Tanker's Tuesday : ARR There Be Pirates!
Iron Grip Pirate Scout
Iron Grip Pirate Tank
Iron Grip Pirate Mobile Artillery
Iron Grip: Warlord is set in a dieselpunk world with a society that can be described as a blend of Napoleonic era politics and World War II technology. The Iron Grip world is home to many different landmasses, but Warlord focuses on Kathos, a frigid region to the northeast resembling Eastern Europe. Kathos is divided into two large military powers and a handful of neutral countries. To the north is the Sovereign Republic of Rahmos, possessing the world's most powerful airship fleet and a technologically advanced military. Their territory includes a number of client states in addition to their home island. The country of Fahrong (known as the Confederation of Nallum) is the other major power. With uneven and mountainous terrain, the Confederates employ mechanized walkers known as 'Arachs' along with the largest standing army. Central to the game is Atelia, a medium-sized country known for its abundant resources and many different ethnic and tribal groups. At the time of the game, Atelia is a country traditionally divided into city-states and nomads. Its lands are contested by the two Kathos military powers and the remaining scraps of the country are ruled by Warlords.
