Latest Updates
21 Aug 2008		Napoleon's armies and enemies continue to be favourites in this hobby, but that usually only covers the decade or so after he crowned himself emperor. One of his exotic earlier adventures was the less well known campaign in Egypt, and we have now reviewed the first set to specifically depict this operation as we look at French Camel Corps from GerMan.
19 Aug 2008		New on the site today is our review of the second set of Scythians from Orion, which this time concentrates on the mounted warriors.
17 Aug 2008		Today we have another review, this time of Odemar's French Infantry for Hougoumont. Sadly this is another example of a set that would be better simply by being more honestly titled.
14 Aug 2008		The News page has some recent changes to the future plans of HaT.
13 Aug 2008		Thanks to the Olympics China is on everyone's mind just at the moment. In 1592 China faced invasion from Japan, but it was the Koreans that suffered the most at the hands of the aggressor. The latest set to cover this conflict, RedBox Korean Heavy Infantry, has now been reviewed.

3 Aug 2008		New today we have our review of Hat's Egyptian Camelry.
1 Aug 2008		'All for one and one for all!'. If that phrase means anything to you then you will be interested in our latest review, GerMan's French Mounted Musketeers. Also there are some new sets planned by Caesar over on the News page.
29 Jul 2008		We have not reviewed a Napoleonic set for a while, so we are now breaking that run by discussing Odemars' British Infantry for Hougoumont.

26 Jul 2008		Would you like to write an article for PSR? We are looking to expand our coverage to include old figures and sets long since out of production, and we need experts out there to help. If you have good knowledge of a particular range get in touch with us (details on our Contact page) for more information. In the meantime a fine example of what we are looking for has been added - a new article on the little-known range from Zee Toys.
24 Jul 2008		The News page has a new release for Crusades fans today.
23 Jul 2008		Zvezda began their range of 1/72 figures with Russian knights for the 13th and 14th centuries, and now seem to have decided to improve on their original set with two new ones. The first of these, Russian Mounted Knights, is the subject of our latest review.
