New Strelets on the way Dealers have started listing several new Strelets sets as expected for release in the fairly near future. One, Dutch Infantry Firing Line for the War of Spanish Succession (265), had previously been announced, but four more are new announcements, and they are:
- 294 - British Light Infantry on the March
- 295 - British Light Infantry in Attack
- M162 - Early WWII Infantry in Defence
- M163 - IJA Infantry in Melee
The two British sets are Napoleonic, and it seems fairly certain that the third is of US troops, while the fourth is also for WWII. The expectation is that these sets will actually appear over the next few weeks. |

Hat return to an old subject. Many years ago HaT published some masters of Napoleonic Russian infantry, but like many such masters, no set was ever made. Now it seems the project is back on as they have assigned a catalogue number (8350) and are discussing finer details. |
