Last time I was in GW they told me I could still mail order the Guard sprues.
Have you looked at that? they are still in the mail order catolog in the
shops. At least in the UK.
Have been a bit busy with real world stuff and sick computers. I hope to have
a new version of the map available in a few days, incorporating all of the
changes suggested(I hope). Once I have reinstalled all of the software:(

FYI,
They are no longer making anymore plastic sprues. They are just selling their
leftovers. Apparently they purchased a new plastic casting machine, and they
no longer want to run the old one (which is the one that runs the epic molds),
they also don't sell enough epic to make recasting the molds worthwhile. So if
you're going to buy any, buy them soon. Also, from what I can tell, USA and UK
have different levels of stock (so just because the US mailorder troll says he
doesn't have any left, the UK might and vice versa).
The models should be available at some future date cast in metal (with a price
increase:(). Currently the sprues are surprisingly affordable (1.50 pounds per
sprue (about 60 6mm miniatures) in the UK and 3.00 dollars in the US).

According to the US website, and the last time I looked, the UK web site as
well, they don't carry them. Hmm, I'll get my brother to have a look for me in
the UK.
Thanks,
