Troublemaker Games specialise in the design of quirky and original Miniature War Games.

Our high quality miniatures, designed by acclaimed sculptors Ben and Barny Skinner, are designed on computer, allowing for the highest possible level of detail. We pride ourselves on the quality of our models, as well as on the care and attention we provide when packaging and sending models to our customers.

We don't just make models though; we make games. Our first game is Timeline 300, a 10mm scale Steampunk wargame. You can find more information about it on the Games Page.

They're here to steal your coal!

Millions of years ago, the Martians watched Dinosaurs move across the surface of Earth with envious eyes. Unable to escape their dying planet, the Martian civilisation dwindled, until at last the remaining population placed themselves in technological hibernation. Their minds sustained in a computerised dream-world, the Martians slept whilst their cities crumbled to dust.

However, the slumbering Martian civilisation was disturbed by inquisitive Humans looking to venture beyond their planet. Unwittingly, the Aetherical Translocator technology they brought with them provided the Martians with an escape route to Earth...

Our second wave of Timeline 300 model releases is here, including the stunning Martian Tripods and vicious Martian Infantry. The Tripods come with two weapon options, the deadly Heat-Ray and the choking Black Smoke Canister Launcher.

Other new releases include the German Steamjet Infantry.

German industrial ingenuity has led to the widespread production of so-called Steamjet equipment, which utilises a highly pressurised form of aetherically empowered gaseous water vapours, forced through directed nozzles via a complicated gyro-stabilised clockwork mechanism that allows the wearer of the Steamjet device to fly at speeds of up to sixty kilometres an hour for an extended time period.

Although not powerful enough to lift heavy equipment or weaponry as well as the wearer, the Steamjet’s own super-heated water can itself be used as a potent weapon by an experienced operator, and so Germany’s “bouncing infantry” has come to be greatly feared.

Also included in each Foundation Sets are 3 Mining Machines, automated digging contraptions which are used to mine for coal to pay for new forces in-game. Gathering coal while restricting your enemy's access to it is key to winning games of Timeline 300.

The MB4 Mining Machine is typical of coal excavators of European design during the 1870’s. Beneath the ground, automatic drilling arms reach down into the ground, seeking out coal by Aetherical means, and then by means of a primitive internal Translocator dispatching the recovered resources instantly to the Nation's factories. Those Generals who are most successful at recovering coal in the field are normally sent greater levels of reinforcement in a harsh but economical selection process.
