From Chris Salander comes word that French game company Azure Dreams has come out with another of their very detailed and very expensive board games, this one covering the Battle of Alexandria in 1801. If it is like their other work it might be worth the price, if for no other reason than to get the orders of battle to create a miniatures battle.

From Ben Checota comes word that Guernsey Foundry is working on a line of Seven Years War Ottomans in 25mm. That would be a nice change from adapting the Renaissance figures that do not always have the correct equipment. His doesn't know when the line will come out, but believes it will be awhile yet as current plans call for it to be the last of the five planned Seven Years War lines.
