This book is packed to the seams with lots of useful content, not only for collectors and wargamers but also for those wishing to just read up on the World of Valon setting of Flintloque and Slaughterloo. All of this great content is presented in handy page sized profiles.  Each profile gives you the number, name and status of each code at the time of going to press (please note the status of packs will change over time with available codes becoming sold out). Background and history along with uniform details (for painting your miniature) and gaming rules for use with Flintloque the Skirmish and Slaughterloo Mass Battle.

At the foot of each entry are two boxes to use for your own reference, a tick box and a number box. If you have that pack in your collection tick the box and write in the unique pack number as well.  While those limited codes that are in production can be purchased from Alternative Armies or its agents, retailers etc directly, laying your hands on a SOLD OUT code is much trickier.

The Rarest Tin book allows you to know exactly what each code looks like, so you will be able to then seek it out and use it in your games. Check the racks of gaming stores, their bargain bins (many tales of gems found for pennies do exist!), online auctions and directly with Alternative Armies for trade in’s as well.  In our office we operate a system called the ‘Swop Drawer’ where any sold out LE or VLE codes that come back to us from customers, warehouses or closed stores etc are kept. Just ask us to see what we have, if anything, in the Swop Drawer.

Getting hold of sold out codes though only gets tougher with the passage of time, so good luck and happy hunting.
