GZGs Update

 NEWS UPDATE 9th NOVEMBER 2020:

WHAT'S BEEN HAPPENING RECENTLY - AND START DATE FOR THE CHRISTMAS SPECIALS!

Well, here we are in “Lockdown 2 - The Sequel”, and here’s a VERY long-overdue update on what’s been going on for the last couple of months.
It's mostly been business as usual… orders have been coming in, packets have been going out, and apart from that I really don’t know where the time has disappeared to!

Not a great deal has changed with the new lockdown, and hopefully the only thing you might notice from me is that some orders may take an extra day or two to go out, as I will be trying to reduce my trips to the Post Office to just two or three times a week rather than going every day.

While we’re all missing the Autumn shows, at least not having to prepare for them has meant a bit of extra time to work on new items.
Over recent weeks I have had a LOT of new stuff designed, sculpted/printed and got it all into master-moulds, so I have an absolute shed-load of new product codes to come as soon as I can get the production moulds made for them all - which is what I’m working on right now…

I will be running some Christmas Specials again this year, and the plan at the moment is to start them on the 21st November - all the new releases that I can get into moulds before then will be launched at the same time, so please check the webstore news shortly for more news - I may do a little pre-release teaser or two so you have some idea of what is coming!

Thanks to all of you who have kept ordering during this difficult year, it’s seen me through it so far and I’m very grateful to everyone - stay safe, keep well, and hang in there, it’ll all be over eventually….

Best regards, thanks for reading,
Jon (GZG), 9th November 2020.

GZGs Phase Two Offer

SITUATION UPDATE 17/4/20:
First off, my apologies for the delay in posting this update, and special thanks to those of you who contacted me to check that everything was OK! All is good here at the moment with both business and family, and I hope the same applies to all of you out there.
The response to the first phase of the Lockdown Special Offer was enormous - thanks to all of you who ordered - and even since it ended two weeks ago, orders have still been coming in at a good steady rate.

There WILL be a Phase Two of the offer, as promised, which will feature the FT Starships ranges - but for various reasons I will not now be starting it until around the beginning of MAY. I have a number of things that I need to catch up on between now and the end of April, and while I will be able to handle a normal amount of orders in that time I don’t want to get overwhelmed and unable to keep with them - and if the reaction to the earlier special on the 15mm ranges was anything to go by, that could easily happen when the FT offer starts!

The postal services appear to still be generally working OK, but in the last week or so I have become aware that some mailings are taking a little longer than normal to arrive; domestic First Class mail is now taking two or even three days in some cases, and even Special Delivery packets are sometimes taking two days rather than the usual next day service. I don’t have a lot of info on how other countries’ postal services are coping, but for airmail packets to the US (for example) I would tend to expect 10-14 days at the moment rather than the usual 5-7 days.
If any of you would like to take a few moments to let me (Jon) know via email when your packets arrive, that would give me some useful feedback on how the various services are performing and what advice to give other customers.

Please check back here now and then for further updates and more news - there may even be some more NEW RELEASES soon…
Thanks again to everyone - keep safe, keep healthy, and keep painting - the day will come when we can all face our friends and opponents across the tabletop battlefield again!

Jon (GZG), Friday 17th April 2020.

Shockwave Darkside

This falls under the "Bad Movie, good wargame category : Shockwave Darkside: Using GZGs  Moongrunt forces or some such, would make for an enjoyable game.....

The movie it's self is a rather low tech (in computer graphics anyway) affair with mediocre acting at best. It's translation to table top play would be IMO very easily done :)

From the film bio:

It is the last, great war. Out of the wreckage of a troop transport, five soldiers on the way to battle find themselves stranded on the dark side of the moon. Cut off and behind enemy lines, they start a dangerous journey through snipers and minefields back to their home territory. As their numbers dwindle and nerves fray, they make an amazing discovery about the moon that just might save their lives.

Painting Guide 15mm SCI-FI

A bit of an older video but useful none the less!

Warhammer 40,000? NO!! It's Stargrunt 2!!

Stargrunt II is a comprehensive set of generic rules for simulating science-fiction infantry combat in virtually any background. The system covers actions from a few squads up to full company level. Rules are included for infantry, powered armored troops, AFV's, artillery and aerospace support and much much more. The game is designed for use with 25mm or 15mm scale miniatures. The game has a flexible integrated game sequence, minimal record keeping and a brilliant system of distinguishing troop quality. The game encourages the players to think tactically. There are rules for troop confidence, motivation, suppression and much more.

This game is now available as a free download from Ground Zero Games.
