A partial guide to the products of Rackham's Confrontation Game (and Ragnarok).
"English Promotional Packs" - Most miniatures made before about October 2002 were sold in the US by mail without the game cards or supplements. They did have French rulebooks and strange collectors cards. There were also boxed sets. After this time we started seeing some full English packages with English book and cards.
Scenery - Columns of Silence, Columns of Temptation, Columns of Calamities, Columns of Torment, Heralds of Mercy, Guardians of Eternity, Manor Doors, Large Manor Door. Blisters available in the US.
Resin Statues - Large paintable decorative pieces. 2 are available at over $100 each.

Ragnarok - recently released in French this supplement provides a large
detailed rulebook, a book on the history and culture of the Confrontation races,
and more.
Limited Edition: There are many LE miniatures. In particular note the ones that are only available from specific companies like the Cadwallon executioner for the French Starplayer store.
Confrontation Magazine - Scenarios and hobby gaming tips. Not in English.
Army Books - Rackham spends a lot of time on it's cards rules and expansion packs so it is no surprise that they may have plans to expand the game even more with army supplements planned for release after the Ragnarok box.
One more item : Rackham is actually working on a modern or sci-fi warfare game. See a preview at Rackscan.net. It seems to be focused on Earth's current nations rather than the fantastic far future of other war games. Interesting.
