Stumbled across this old Raven's Forge Miniatures ad, titled "Morrow Project Figure Catalog 1999" while sorting through a stack of old gaming materials. While only 15 years old, this sheet depicting the company's line of 16 post-apocalyptic miniatures feels like a relic from the past for a number of reasons. 

Stumbled across this old Raven's Forge Miniatures ad, titled "Morrow Project Figure Catalog 1999" while sorting through a stack of old gaming materials. While only 15 years old, this sheet depicting the company's line of 16 post-apocalyptic miniatures feels like a relic from the past for a number of reasons. These include that Raven's Forge Miniatures appears to be among the game industry companies that gave it their best shot and then disappeared, one of the miniatures being armed with a Dragon anti-tank rocket (a weapon I was trained to use in the 1980s), the company having a Prodigy email address -- and, of course, Morrow Project being a very old game! Interestingly, the website for the company appears to have been hosted by the Carnegie Mellon University School of Computer Science, all the stranger in that it is a Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, educational institution and a Sheffield, Alabama, company (it is no longer a valid URL in any case).
