Flames Of War available through Alliance 17 July 2008 Battlefront Miniatures and Alliance Game Distributors are proud to announce that they are partnering to bring the award winning Flames Of War: The World War II Miniatures Game to Alliance Retailers in North America and US Territories. Flames Of War is a historical miniatures game that allows players to recreate the battles of World War II using miniature figurines, and so experience the war from the point of view of a front-line company commander.

“The roots of our entire industry are planted in historical miniatures, and Battlefront has led the way for a resurgence of historical gaming in the marketplace,” says Mike Webb, VP of Marketing and Customer Service for Alliance. “The product line – both the rules and the miniatures - is by far the best historical line I’ve encountered in decades in the hobby. The staff at Battlefront take pride in producing a game that is historically accurate, beautifully modelled, imminently playable, and made with retail sales and in-store play in mind. They have succeeded with Flames Of War, and we are delighted to offer Battlefront to a wider audience.”

“We are pleased to have made this exclusive deal with Alliance and with the focused range on offer we are sure this will allow many more retailers to profit from the Flames Of War offering. With their network of service centres around the country Alliance & the US Battlefront office will be able to cover the needs of retailers of all sizes with the high levels of service both companies have become known for,” says John-Paul Brisigotti, Managing Director of Battlefront.

Alliance will begin offering the Flames of War Rulebooks, Intelligence Handbooks, Army, Elite, and Platoon Boxes as well as Gaming Sets and Accessories from the 1st August 2008.
