Sprue layout is a challenging balance act. Getting just the right amount of different parts to satisfy the biggest number of customers must be quite a headache.  One of Wargames Atlantics&rsq...

@JTam yeah, but I do not know WHY you were talking about Africa. I certainly did not bring it up and the pictures I posted were not from there (although the East African campaign is in itself a goo...

@Alessio De Carolis the height thing is a bit of a straw man argument. Yes, the average woman is shorter than the average man, but only within a given population.  The average female height in...

@JTam the Cannon Fodder conversion is really exciting. Fodder are the most versatile range WGA make, IMO. Having conversion kits ready made makes them an even better value to me. This is what I wan...

@Mark Dewis  I was talking about Africa. Which is a niche of a niche of a niche. Gallipoli and surrounds is a niche of a niche. But back to the original question.  What do you think t...

So civilians won. This is the preview: @Red Bee  Bottom, middle row?  I think it's angry monks.  There was a monk looking robe teased two weeks ago I believe.   Looks...

@William Redford  She should be available soon.  This posted 27 NOV: https://www.warhammer-community.com/2022/11/27/sunday-preview-warhammer-40000-battleforces-and-necromunda-goons-and-...

@JTam Palestine is not Africa (although there were battles defending the Suez canal in 1915-16), and it was hardly a fringe campaign. It was the primary theatre in which Turkey participated.  ...

@JTam Do you know when that Escher special character is supposed to be released? I cant find her at Forgeworld or Games Workshop.    I did get the plastic Jain Zarr kit on the Saturday ...

no, while i have been in the lower, restructed klevels of douamont, it was a WW1 "underground fort" wargame. (with zombis!) . altough I have also done more than my fair share of WW1 reenatments in ...

I'll admit the botched backdraps do iritate me. I mean, it's just plain wrong, an it bugs me when I see it. I'm also confusaed why there are no E tool carrers.  Those need to be on the ASAP li...

@Mark Dewis honestly, these heads just feel super "generic draconic" to me. I don't hate them by any means. D&D5e has their slim snouts, Pathfinder has their broad snouts, everyone else has som...

@Desmond Woolston Kobolds update has been confirmed. supported and unsupported zips are now available. Re: alien heads: It looks like supported files are present. Could you please clarify?

@Desmond Woolston updated on kobolds as of 2 minutes ago.  We apologize for the mix up. The team is checking the alien heads now

@JTam in many times and places. But most typically in premodern times it was supervising slaves, serfs and proles during the harvest rather than doing the actual plowing. That is NOT to say they we...

The more recent Kobold look is less draconic and more crocodilian, with narrow snouts. That might be what people were expecting (along with the skinny bodies).

@Miyuso  Cool kitbash.  Nice to see what the two kits together look like.  I'm not sure there is much difference between the "male" and "female" Cannon Fodder arms.  I know the...

@JTam yep. Got them all and they are really good kits. The barbarian ladies are well posed, sensible skins and furs (no chainmail bikinis) and a good selection of parts. I made up a character that ...

December's preview is up! https://wargamesatlantic.com/blogs/news/atlantic-digital-december-teaser Anyone able to make out the bottom middle row set?  Interesting that we have two dragonish...

@Jay H. Indeed, and this handsome fellow, is also a skink. And they all serve as a reminders to have fun with our colour schemes.

@crispin vasquez do you receive any error message?   Have you tried opening with lychee slicer or chitubox?

@William Ings you call that a skink?! THIS is a skink! These kobolds look like they traded their traps for whey protein powder and never looked back. Though, maybe if we just printed them with ...

@JTam that's with Cannon Fodder arms (male) as that's what I had. 

Mercenaries and Militia + the bits from the expansion (below) for me - no need for not-las guns; or put them out as an addon sprue a bit like the cannon-fodder gun sprue....

@Geoff Maybury  Warlord's had some really nice Black Friday through Cyber Monday deals this year.   Stock levels ARE strange this year.  The grocery store shelves are looking ...

@Geoff Maybury  This is a newish book: I don't have it, but it looks like it might be idea for your needs.  

@William Redford Hi`ya Bill , nice to catch you, good to see you are still enjoying the girls. J-Tam sent for some goodies from Warlord Games. a Black Friday deal next thing theres some whooo`s and...

@Mark Dewis Spliff or Cuban rolled on the  thiewwes of maidens etc,

The Coven Sisters look incredibly good.  But the GW ones are sublime.  There was decades were plastic Sisters would have crushed it in the market.  But that window is perhaps closed....

Well the Catanyans of course ;) Actually that would be fun.  But more seriously, the Mercenaries and Militia: Make this in plastic and print money. Sure, throw in some laser rifles so t...

I think member @Lord Marcus sells these: A nice example of what more "fantasy" Amazons could look like.  

Out for the fighting season.  In for the harvest.  Wasn't that the cycle for a good long bit of human history?

Thanks@JTam . I have added a few more useful links above. If anyone has anything they think should be linked, please let me know.

@Charles Tottington Until two days ago I didn't knew about this terrible movie, but I knew about Dahomey's amazons ferocity and cruelty, plus they were the slavers in that region, but logically fro...

@Alessio De Carolis I am not an expert on African warfare but the wiki would suggest it was French successes with bayonet armed melee fighting that decided the battles...  not “mode...

@JTam yes. Both kits are very nice and mix well with each other. The barbarians have very nice posing and the weapons are great. Punch daggers for right and left hands are awesome. There are a...

Good paintjob... 

Coven Sisters sounds as a good idea for me... but with additional more femalelike heads...long hair, hair brais?  and so on...

issue with unsupported parts of the grognard sergent. unable to open with microsoft 3d builder

Again not sure if plastic or resin.  But pretty awesome:

@William Redford @Mark Dewis  Did you get the Stargrave or Frostgrave female mercenaries or barbarians in hand yet?  Thoughts?

Still waiting waiting.....probably wont come till the new year by the looks of it.  Haven't left the US yet so add a month for shipping, another month for Oz Post and these should arrive aroun...

Personally, I'm interested in Coven Sisters and Gene Tyrants making the grand leap to plastic models. The Coven can be another plastic alternative to sisters like Shield Wolf or the Panzerjager. Wh...

@Brian Van De Walker somehow a lot of us forgot that. One set of each sprue would give 11 figures; a 50/50 box isn't actually possible - you'd need to either have two or three sets of sprues for th...

It's easy to get a six pack by casting it in bronze. Middle aged Roman generals knew that trick too 😉 Back breaking labour aside, the average farmer doesn't map to warrior class. Almost always, ou...

@Alessio De Carolis Yeah Dahomey would actually make great villains. Especially the evil amazon elite. I mean, they kind of remind me of the Warhammer Dark Elves since they were slavers who held li...

@JTam Oh these would be perfect for a sci-fi team of amazons in death fields.

That one smoking appears to be drawing on a MASSIVE spliff. Not casting any shade - very historically accurate - but if they intended it to be a Lucky Strike they really screwed up the scaling...

Just be aware the Mordheim stuff is a bit chunky; GW were going through a patch of plastics being a bit larger than intended at the time (also seen in the 6th edition box Empire troops). Since late...
