WoFun Release New Peter Dennis Dark Age Flat Miniatures!
January 4, 2021 by brennon
WoFun have been working away in the background on all manner of fun flat miniatures for you to use to play out Historical battles on the tabletop quickly. One of their newest ranges is the Dark Age Collection based on the artwork of Peter Dennis and it looks superb!
1066 Starter Pack Rules // WoFun
When it comes to diving into this period, the folks at WoFun have provided a selection of different options. Firstly, you can either get these acrylic pieces in 28mm or 18mm dependant on your preferences but you can also pick up not just Normans and Anglo-Saxons from Hastings but also Vikings too!
1066 Armies // WoFun
The armies that are available can be played with a neat game which has been penned by Andy Callan as you can see above. The idea is that it's quick and easy to play which goes well with the quick and easy to assemble armies that you see here. If it hasn't been stated already, it's damn simple to just pop these miniatures out and slot them into bases so they are ready for battle.
The full packs actually allow you to play as all three of the armies from the time period but if you just want the sets of the individual miniature then you go down that route. That means you have access to characters, elite infantry, cavalry, rank and file troops and more from their store.
Peter Dennis' Dark Age Range // WoFun
If you've been tempted by the idea of getting into Historical wargaming but not really been that fussed by the idea of painting then obviously paper miniatures from Peter Dennis would be the cheapest option. WoFun, however, has been putting together some exquisite miniatures here that are a lot sturdier than paper and look spectacular to boot.

As I am very much in a Dark Age mood at the moment due to Vikings, reading Bernard Cornwell's The Last Kingdom and also venturing into Ravenfeast, this seems like a good option for someone who is as lazy as I am!
I am sorely tempted and I'm sure a lot of you folks are too!

Always happy to see a Peter Dennis WoFun collection it’s means the project is keeping pace and I’m closer to a Zulu war range sometime in the future
Very nice like most football team’s the look great on paper.
Must admit the Peter Dennis/Wofun collaboration is putting out some SERIOUSLY tempting stuff. Always loved Mr Dennis’s artwork, but never been a fan of paper minis (just too fragile for gaming purposes in my book). Now with Wofun’s plastic backed minis that fragility is no more (neither is the time sink of cutting out the paper minis with a scapel). 🙂
How things come full circle.
Years ago Donald Featherstone and Tony Bath did their ancient wargame using German ‘Flats’ – featured in Donald’s book, “Wargames”. That must have been late 1960’s.
Here we are, 60 years later.
