February News – Kickstarter update! British AFVs! German armoured train!

It’s been a while since our last update – we’ve just been so busy that we had to take a break from something!

However, we have been hard at work in the background for the last couple of months with various projects.

Firstly, working has been steadily progressing on the designs for our 1940s British Town Kickstarter, which goes live at the start of March so go an register you interest on the pre-launch page. Additions include new houses, plans for a new police station, extra wartime scatter pieces and more.

Earlier this month we released our first new models of 2026 – British AFVs. These included both updates to existing models (the Matilda II and Indian Pattern Armoured Carrier) as well as new additions covering the M14 Halftrack, T18 Boarhound, Tetrarch, Bishop, Matilda I, M4 Sherman III and the Comet.

This week saw the release of a totally new range – a German armoured train. Featuring a gun car, artilleriewagen, command car, flak cars and a flatbed in addition to an armoured locomotive, it’s perfect for scenery, an objective or additional firepower!

We’ve also pinned down our first trade shows of the year and so far we will be present at:

14th March – Border Reiver Wargames Show – Washington

20th June – Phalanx Show – St Helens

1st August – Claymore Show – Edinburgh

19th September – Border Reiver Wargames Show – Washington – TBC

29th November – Battleground Show – Middlesborough – TBC

As you can see, it’s been a busy start to the year and we are planning continuing that way!



November News pt IV – French Trucks and Tows!

This time the French are getting some love, with a whole host of various trucks and tows being added to their range.

From the little Citreon P17 up to the mighty and awesome looking tracked Latil TAR, and including Laffly S20 & S25 variants such as a radio truck, tanker and artillery tractor, we are sure that any French collectors will find something to love in the list.

In all, we’ve added an additional 10 vehicles and multiple variants to the range, so check it out now!

November News pt III – Germany builds the Atlantik Wall!

As promised (twice!) – here are some lovely big bunkers covering all your Atlantik Wall needs!

From the R667 Kleinschartenstand casemate (complete with 5cm KwK 39) to the 155mm 418(f) equipped open pit emplacement, andincluding a multitude of casemates designed for everything from 7.5cm anti-tank guns to 10.5cm and 155mm howitzers, the Germans have something to counter anything the Allies can throw at them. Observation and fire control bunkers such as the M262, R636a and R697 will help ensure you artillery is accurate and deadly.

However, not all of the Atlantik Wall was just about guns, and with a range of additional support buildings including the R661 field hospital, R502a and R622 squad shelters, your troops will be well rested when manning the big guns!

In total, 19 new pieces have been added to the German defensive line and this is only the beginning – later in the month we are planning to add a further 20 smaller defensive structures including a Pantherturm, mortar pit, various tobruks, ammo stores, MG nests and more!



November News pt II – Soviet artillery arrives with a bang!

So I got a little carried away last week and promised you Atlantik Wall terrain and actually it is Soviet artillery this week – sorry!

Covering such beasts as the MT-13 super heavy mortar, BS-3 100mm and A-19 122mm anti-tank guns and the ML-20 152mm heavy howitzer, the Soviets have been reinforced with some serious firepower!

Next week we really are returning to terrain and have some lovely big German bunkers for your D-Day battles!



November News – A whole new army lands!

It’s slightly later than usually, but it is time for the first release of November and as promised, it’s an entire new army!

That’s right, today the late war Polish People’s Army has joined the ranks at MarDav and are ready to take the fight to enemy with four different infantry squads, artillery and mortar support (50mm, 82mm and 120mm!), vehicles (including the SU-76M) and plenty of team based support options such as a flamethrower, sniper teams and an anti-tank rifle.

In total, 25 new units have been added to the range, and there is enough choice to make a good, well balanced force.

Next week we’re returning to terrain and are shifting the action back west towards the Atlantik Wall……
