Long Business Description

Historic Enterprises Company designs and publishes rules for historical miniature wargames. Historic Enterprises Company is a partnership between two wargamers and authors, Les Benoodt and Phil Johnston, with a lot of help from wargamers around the country.

Our Design Philosophy
Historic Enterprises Company is dedicated to the proposition that playability and realism are not mutually exclusive--or even unfriendly to each other. Rather, what often is mistaken for realism is an excess of mechanical details which are incompatible with realism.

Realism consists in determining what you want to represent in the wargame rules and single-mindedly focusing on that goal.

We begin each design process by asking these simple questions: Who on the battlefield do the players represent? (Army commander, a local feudal lord, etc.) What did those people do/how did they interact with the battlefield environment? What are the key decisions that person would make? From the answers to these three questions, we develop the all important "perspective" of our rules. Perspective determines what elements of the battlefield and battlefield command are emphasized and what elements are abstracted or simplified.

For a more lengthy discussion of various aspects of wargaming realism, our approach, etc., visit the Home page to see several pieces Phil wrote on the subject.

Our Rules
Historic Enterprises Company has published three sets rules along with complementary army lists, aids and scenarios:

Castles, Cogs, & Chevauchées
Rules for Medieval sieges, naval actions and a campaigns.

Hollandspiele are a small publisher that specializes in military history games. Our games are printed on demand - the most expensive and least efficient way to manufacture games. 


Horse & Musket: Dawn of an Era, Sean Chick's Horse & Musket is a simple tactical game system covering musket warfare from Vienna in 1683 to Appomattox in 1865. This first volume in the series, Dawn of an Era, covers warfare in the west from 1683-1719, which saw matchlock muskets and pikes give way to flintlocks and bayonets. Ranks became thinner and battles more linear as firepower and infantry discipline became the deciding factors.


Horse & Musket: Tides of Revolution, The long-awaited fourth volume in Sean Chick's Horse & Musket series shifts the scene to a period of social upheaval, peopled by radical revolutionaries, dominated by two world-changing events – the American War for Independence, and the overthrow of the Bourbon monarchy, resulting in the War of the First Coalition.


Table Battles, Here is something new and exciting, something completely unlike any other game on your table. Table Battles is a thinky filler, a light dice game that nevertheless will have you scratching your chin and agonizing over your decisions. It reduces armed conflict to its essentials, to the absolute universal truths behind all battles: the threat of force and its application. It's about leverage, about feints and counterfeints, threats and counterthreats, about creating openings and then going for the jugular, about leaving openings and springing a trap.


Reign of Witches, The subject of this small two-player card game is America's Quasi-War with France, viewed through the lens of factional conflict within the Federalist Party. One player assumes the role of the supposedly obnoxious and disliked President John Adams, and is opposed by that ten dollar founding father without a father, Alexander Hamilton.


Agricola, Master of Britain, It is the year of Vespasian and Titus - the sixth such ordinary consulship that Titus shared with his Imperial father. The civil war of a decade ago is but a memory, and the Flavians have restored peace and order to all corners of the empire, save one. The people of Britannia remain fiercely resistant to the will of their Roman masters, and the emperor has charged YOU with the seemingly impossible task of bringing them to heel.


Wars of Marcus Aurelius, 170CE. Plague ravages the Empire. With the Legions depleted by disease and spread thin across the endless frontier, opportunistic Germanic tribes and fierce Sarmatian raiders strike across the Danube deep into Imperial territory. To face this threat, the Emperor Marcus Aurelius, an untested commander who has never set foot outside of Italy, must transform himself from an introspective philosopher into a cunning warrior and fearless leader.


Stilicho: Last of the Romans, The Goths are marching on Rome! In Gaul, Vandals and Alans pour across the Rhine. Meanwhile, a usurper from distant Britannia has raised his standard. The survival of the Western Empire depends on one man: Flavius Stilicho, barbarian general, commander-in-chief of the armies of Rome, and de facto ruler of the West.


NATO Air Commander, 1 May 1987: the Soviet Union invades Western Europe, catching the NATO ground forces by surprise. The West's only hope is to achieve supremacy in the air. It won't be easy - the odds are against them, and the cause looks lost. With limited resources, multiple targets, and mounting political pressure, you will have to make the right calls at the right time. YOU are Commander of Allied Air Forces Central Europe, and the fate of the world is in your hands.

Hydra Miniatures
Business Name
Long Business Description

Hydra Miniatures is the manufacturer of unique fantasy and science fiction miniatures. Our business model is governed by three guiding principles: create unique ranges of miniatures, design figures that are easy for gamers to assemble and paint, and offer top notch customer service and communication.

Sounds good. But let’s tell it like it is.

We feel the market is flooded with Tolkienesque fantasy miniatures orcs, dwarves, and elves. The same goes for sci-fi bodybuilder commandos in power armor fighting H.R. Giger inspired xenomorphs.

Frankly, we’re sick of it. And who needs yet another miniatures company creating the same thing you’ve seen a hundred times?

Our mission is to break away from these clichés and create never before seen figures that no one else is doing. Figures that fire your imagination and inspire you to new gaming possibilities.

Next form, fit and finish. So many figures are a pain to assemble and paint. Our miniatures are designed with the gamer in mind. Castings are quick to assemble and appropriately detailed to make them easy to paint. You get your figures on the table quickly so you can spend more time gaming.

Finally, we believe that communication is essential. So we’ve set a very high standard of customer service for ourselves. We hope to avoid mistakes through good communication and high standards of quality. However, if we make a mistake, we pledge to correct it as soon as possible no hassle, no fuss! And hopefully website features like downloadable catalogues with actual sized photos will help gamers make informed decisions about our products and eliminate some of the typical errors other miniatures manufacturers have encountered.

In short, we’re going to be the absolute best at what we do. And your experience with Hydra Miniatures will keep you coming back for more.

Long Business Description


Founded in 2014, Hysterical Games is the coming together of industry stalwarts, Rob Alderman and Steve Blease - assisted by among the most talented model-makers, freelance artists, sculptors, graphics designers and game developers. It's our goal to stick to our roots and make sure that the products and services we sell reflect us, our personalities and our expectations of others.


From the tiny acorn that is Rob's brain, this humble Oak has grown. Having committed to a team of fully employed manufacturing staff, we now supply high-quality and affordable manufacturing services and advice to a number of businesses, as well as managing our own games and miniature ranges; Panzerfäuste and Spitfyre. ​


Our Games. ​


Panzerfäuste is our exciting game of mechanised warfare in a fantasy world. Enter a world where Dwarves, Orcs, Gnomes and many other creatures continue their millennia long struggles, but with modern advances of tanks, sub-machine guns and grenades. Fight on battlefields where death is impersonal and only a heartbeat away. March your troops across green fields, through muddy trenches, over snow-capped mountains or into dank caverns... Come fight in the world of Panzerfäuste and see if you can reign supreme in The Land!


A fun 'Historo-Fantasy' miniature wargame setting, Panzerfäuste is the game in which 28mm scale miniatures are used to depict the everyday struggles of standard fantasy races such as Orcs and Dwarves fight out battles with 20th century weaponry.


In 2016, we also launched a Panzerfäuste spin-off game called Futbowel. A 'beer and pretzels' style game inspired by the Christmas Truce of 1914.


Spitfyre is our 10mm scale miniature aerial wargame of aerial warfare in the same fantasy world as Panzerfäuste. Dwarves and Orcs take the war to the sky and fly giant creatures, arming them with bombs and machine guns to continue their millennia long struggles... Come fight in the skies of Spitfyre and see if you can reign supreme over The Land!


Spitfyre is a miniature aerial wargame in which 10mm scale miniatures


We have plans to expand all of these games with new miniatures, rules and accessories, as well as creating new games in the future!
