In recent days HaT have added four new sets to their future plans, all for the Seven Years War. The full list is:

Their website also observes that the Prussian artillery could serve for the German mercenaries in the American War of Independence. There are no release dates, as usual, and no set numbers, but it looks like work is well underway on these sets.

14 May 2026 ArticleIcon Surprise from HaT
A number of new sets have recently been added to some dealer websites marked as 'Future Releases', which generally means HaT have told them the sets are being made and will be shipped shortly. One surprise is the inclusion of set 8134, Etruscan Army. This set has been listed on the HaT website for over 20 years, and images of the box and painted samples have been around since then, but this is the first time the set has actually been released as far as we are aware. Other than that, some new sets previously announced look like they are coming soon, along with some rereleases.

Five new Strelets titles have emerged as future releases. They are:
  • 267 - WSS French Line Cavalry in Attack
  • 301 - Mounted Seminoles
  • 303 - Napoleon in Egypt
  • M167 - Apache Warriors
  • M168 - Texas Rangers 2
As these have appeared on some retailer lists, we are assuming that all will be released at an early date.

11 Feb 2026 ArticleIcon New releases from Ultima Ratio
The good folk at Ultima Ratio have sent us their latest releases. The first of these are the Thracians, which were made last year, but for obvious reasons distribution is very difficult in Ukraine since the start of the war, so they were delayed. The second set is new, and depicts the French Army of the Hundred Years War. Pictures of both have been added to the site via the Awaiting Review page, and naturally reviews will follow.
