Renedra does sets of gambions, barrels (both wood and steel), sandbags, several forms of wooden and stone fencing, and the Chevaux de Frise for 28mm in plastic. and mantic does assorted fences, sto...
@Hudson Adams The standardized dollies feature is a very cool idea that really helps with consistent scaling. I wonder how this will affect the Einherjar since they have shorter arms. I've been con...
You know given my original plans for the Damned was to make an army based off of the Peasant's Crusade, and originally dropped that plan because I wasn't so sure how to adapt a medieval army concep...
@Dark Don Osprey has Prehistoric rules? I'd love to see them. But yeah, Cavemen and Neanderthals would probably fall under the Pulp range given one of the caveman things WGA has is a T-Rex that can...
One thing I just realized, we've probably got to consider whether we want to include psychic greys/martians in the proposed set or have them be their own induvidual set of grey/martian commanders r...
@Brian Van De Walker I always figured on making orcs in space to be some sort of mutant ape man with the options of being either hairy or hairless if we want to go for the Warhammer/Classic Warcraf...
@Brian Van De Walker "...on rare occasions Russia, China, etc. other user find ignored piles of SKS and sell them off to the private market, so they kind of flux between being a high price gun and ...
What Drangir said on all counts: Weapon swaps are super-easy. Simple spears are pretty easy as weapon swaps go, just trim off the old weapon, use a pin-vice and fine drill-bits of ap...
those are fan made models (looking like modified red skull figures?) and don't look much like the reavers from firefly (which we never saw in person until the film serenity.) the ones from the fil...
@Yronimos Whateley It's funny, I used to play with an army of plastic toy knights, now I'm out here debating with people about what are ultimately just fancy toy knights. Some things never change, ...
@Secret Apprentice Yeah, WGA will sometimes screw up what bits are actually in the box. For example, the grognards command/heavy sprue doesn't have any gas mask + adrien helmets, despite the webpa...
The heavy infantry are going to be the one kit that comes closest to "proper" sci-fi aesthetic, with the armor being somewhat comparable to Star Wars stormtroopers, and most of their weaponry being...
WGA needs to take that machine gun Damned Infantry model and throw it away. I can't believe it made it onto the army box art, when the Damned Infantry don't come with that arm set. I'm kind ...
@timbus the thirteenth i've seen people in the VSF and fantasy gaming communities use toy dino's for 'lost world' games, both the lower end stuff and the higher quality collectable types. i suspect...
That's what Gary Gygax and his friends did for D&D way back in the days before there was a dedicated fantasy wargaming miniatures industry, and it's how some of that game's most enduring monste...
Sounds like fun! Wargames Atlantic really hit it out of the park with their Pulp Adventure lines since then, between the Agents, Operators, Survivors, and (currently digital-only but surely destin...
A couple years ago I was playing around with the idea of a dungeon-crawler type wargame set in a modern x-files type world. The agents didn't exist yet, so I was using ooh rah for the soldier-types...
I'd also add that the satyr kit is great for giving you a bit more variety in shirtless arms. I'm using them for my own shirtless barbarian projects, and there's no real fur on the arm, meaning the...
I've not had a chance to do anything like that (yet), but I definitely think the Agents would make excellent Mulder-and-Scully/Men-in-Black/Delta-Green style G-Men for skirmishing against cryptids,...
@timbus the thirteenth "I'm getting flashbacks to the warlord samurai kit. twenty or so arms per sprue, all paired up, unlabeled, and in zero discernible order. so long as wga isn't pulling that ki...
The Black Bear Tribe is my favorite, and the Jade Fire clan is pretty well-done as well. I think all of the Reaper prehistoric tribes should blend reasonably well with Wargames Atlantic's dig...
@Willdunn3cr "" With that in mind, the Digital catalogue also includes a wonderful "Committee of Public Safety" set (which really ought to be moved from "Napoleonic Conquests" to "Age of R...
@timbus the thirteenth "It's a shame, I feel like some of WGA's most unique and interesting designs are stuck in the realm of digital. Obviously I could just learn to work with resin, but it certai...
@Yronimos Whateley @Yronimos Whateley Yeah I think your correct; the kit has legs to be a jumping off point for fantasy kitbashing rather than trying to accommodate for historics. I'm bias...
@Willdunn3cr umm, 16th century nobles dressed very diffrently from 19th century nobles, same deal with those inbetween, and there was fasion diffrences for each nation as well (and let GW make its ...
@timbus the thirteenth Honestly orcs and elves in space should just be human based LOTR larping nerds or the decendents of larper that got a little too creative with the DNA therapy.
@timbus the thirteenth the "people of the dawnlands" was one of the cavemen sets mentioned earlier by @Yronimos Whateley i beleive. along with the "black bear tribe" set. People of the dawn...
It's a shame, I feel like some of WGA's most unique and interesting designs are stuck in the realm of digital. Obviously I could just learn to work with resin, but it certainly feels like everybody...
Speaking of reaper, you could also try using the "people of the dawnlands" from their reaper black line. It's four to a box, 10.99 USD, which is fine for starting out a small tribe. Reaper in gener...
Salvar chem dogs mentioned‼️ what the hell is structured regimental leadership???
I don't actually do any Warhammer gaming and don't know the lore, so take me with a grain of salt, but it seems to me that an elaboration on the Digital Atlantic Traditional Vampires set is surely ...
Short of WA adding something, Reaper had (has?) some fine "Bones" plastic megafauna from one of their crowdfunders several years ago that included a nicely-detailed mammoth, sloth, and a few others...
the digital side has some Neanderthal figures ([Link 1], [link 2]), and frankly i wouldn't mind seeing those make it to plastic. especially if it was geared more as a 'RPG friendly' set with a lot ...
With the release of Ospreys new primitive/prehistoric rules book it seems like now is as good a time as any to discuss WGA reaching deep into the primordial presses and drop some primitives on us a...
Thanks for posting the pics and the info! Ive been thinking about getting a box of the grunts to make some Chem Dogs for my guard army.
@Mithril2098 Great idea! Options are always great in a model!
if the 'dome head slavers' are meant to be a mars attacks style alien, i think you could probably combine them and the grey's into one set by just having a basic spacesuit type outfit and a collect...
@Dark Don The Grays hands down. They're an iconic alien archetype that doesn't really have much representation in the tabletop scene that isn't singular models or small packs. I'd love a 24 model ...
on the digital front, we have the hunter organisms, aka xenomorn't, who are GORGEOUS. I'd also love to see how wga does space orcs, preferably not like the current tropes. last one that could be fu...
Calpe (Now via Gripping Beast) are the best fit, and have a great reservist range in matching uniforms. Otherwise the Perry metal commands work very well, especially the reservist sets. If ...
With the relese of the awesome agent miniatures who would be up for aliens for them to combat? Lets give WGA some suggerstions. What type would you like to see?
Was wondering if anyone has used the agents or other modern models for a sci-fi/ X-Com style game? Would like to see your models and know what rules you are using, please.
I understand your discomfort and like may have said the American people are suffering from a time unpresidented. I woudnt let the negative administration (man Im hollding back) cut you ...
also even just looking at the historical side, that 300 year range covers a multitude of wildly different sets of high society fashion. even ignoring the fact that most historical wargames aren't g...
I'm getting flashbacks to the warlord samurai kit. twenty or so arms per sprue, all paired up, unlabeled, and in zero discernible order. so long as wga isn't pulling that kind of nonsense, I'm happ...
@Thomas Johnson I just googled what an aeromorph was at work cause I thought it was in the xenomorph category. I've seen worse but come on, man 😭.
I'm all for the idea, at least in theory, but I feel like a good chunk of the kit is already covered? Between the conquistadors and fantasy npcs, theres plenty of "nobility" kits. an explicitly sci...
@Brian Van De Walker - That would be great if you could add your review of the cavalry! It looks like a great kit, I just don't really have any normal use for cavalry (or vehicles either, for...
I'm going to replicate this bash with some tweaks; the old Cadian heads look amazing on these figures. Well done on this project 🤘🏻💀🤘🏻👍🏻❤️🔥
