@Mark Dewis Hmmm... ok. They said they were working out something to make prints available. Guess they are still working on that.

Even $5 for one printing of that figure would probably be a fair price, considering. But they're selling you the file that lets you print as many as you want (on a non-commercial license. You aren'...
Oddly, I'm less pumped for these because my main focus for Brits is 19thC colonial. Perry make two excellent kits for those already, and all I really need for the 1888 to Boer War period are Lee-Me...
Looking forward to adding these troops to my Ogryn auxilaries, in my Orstralian Guard army. Any chance of getting a monsterous mount for these blokes.
I plan on using these as Goliaths in Necromunda as I play the older rules rather than the new ones. New gw necromunda miniatures are 32mm scale and would tower over these, especially the goli...
@Grumpy Gnome That's pretty comprehensive. Know this took some work. Thanks for it.
@Mark Dewis So $5 for a single STL is a good price? That is good to know. If these become popular than hopefully several shops will cary them on Etsy to offer some competetive print prices.
If I'm reading it right, US$5 to get the files that allow you to print out as many of those as you want seems pretty good. Commercially, printed minis cost far more than any other method because of...
@Alessio De Carolis I'm not sure that's actually true. There is an unbroken line of American APCs with the same layout as the M113 all the way back to the end of WW2 (when the implica...
Lucid Eye recently came out with a new line of ancients: https://www.lucideyepublications.com/rome?page=4 I think Lucid Eye makes some of the most beautiful miniatures in the business. It looks ...
I wonder how much the interest at Wargames Atlantic is to make a 12,5mm Ancient Range when WLG come up with HC Epic Battles.
Here are a number of useful links for information on the Quar. If anyone has links they recommend please let me know so I can add them. - Zombiesmith... Home of the Quar https://zombiesmi...
I think the lack of excitement is strangely due to how long people have been waiting. The reaction is more "Oh, weren't they out already?" I'm far from the first person to note this... But i...
@Caratacus Reference Broken Legions, I personally felt there was enough differention between the "Barbarians". Germans get werewolves. Britons chariots. And if I remember c...
I have not played Infamy! But have watched it played in numerous videos, read various battle reports as we all as read/watched several reviews. It is not perfect. But I did not get the impression i...
@JTam "1. Way too much dice rolling. Example - 20 "Barbarians" attack 9 Romans. On the charge the Barbarians roll SIXTY dice. The Romans have a sword and shield and ca...
If I was to do Imperial Rome I think I would try Infamy! Infamy! By Toofatlardies. I tend to like their game design concepts.
Sidenote: Warlord is having a really nice sale on the SPQR starter box as we speak.
@Caratacus My dive into the SPQR (1st edition) rules was superficial so I could be completely wrong. But from memory my problems were this: 1. Way too much dice rolling.&...
So we had this linked in the thread on Dakka. https://www.myminifactory.com/object/3d-print-atlantic-digital-irish-chieftain-256822 I'm not the target audience for the stl files so won't be p...
I just hope the box comes out before christmas, even though that probably wont happen
For me, it's Hellenistzic and Late Antiquity.
Some good kitbashed conversions on this blog, mixing genres to create his own unique setting. Really great imagination. https://rollaone.com/2019/11/11/border-skirmish-at-hammering-mutants-who-wou...
I know... I thought there would be more excitement about the sprue that was teased. Even Dakkadakka was more quiet about it than I expected.
I saw the Titan Forge stall at Spiel in Essen the last couple of years. They have a bunch of cool stuff that they have not made available for retail. In particular I was fascinated by a fantasy A...
I am not currently playing any of the ancient periods but have interest in all of them to varying degrees. I currently have quite a few Hellenistic minis, both Greek and Persian but I also ha...
Ready for tooling WW1 Brits and no one has posted here yet? Blimey!
@William Redford That's a nice take on "South American" Amazons.
Looks good... I like your work... 👍 A modern build-from-scratch-version of Marks Hover-STUG III... that he never realized... I would like to see more... 😬
I play from the Hellenic Period to the Late Antiquity, but we could only choose one 😁 I have armies for all those ages, in various stages of completion. As rules, I use SAGA, Hail Caesar, D...
Here is a link to the Amazon infantry picture. Amazon infantry
@JTam Titan Forge has a similar line. There was a kickstarter, but I dont think they have released everything retail as there are only a couple of the units on their store page https://titan-forge...
Because my current Ancients collection is mainly made up of Britons and Imperial Romans and the Britons are easily my favourite historical faction of them all (if you hadn't guessed by my faction n...
@JTam Logically the M113 wasn't intended for a conventional war, following how they tought a future war had to be fought, it was intended as a sort of armoured "taxi" for carring an infantry ...
Shield Wolf has some new Ogres coming out of the last Kickstarter that look the part:
Late Bronze Age - Specifically the Trojan War. Have started collecting minis to play Warhammer Historical Battle or Of Gods and Mortals. Not investing heavily yet as I hope the WGA Troj...
I mostly play fantasy and fantasy RPG's so my answer is a combination of none and all. I have been more and more interested in Indian settings or themes in RPG's... There is an excellent setting ca...
@William Redford well, leaving out black powder was a legitmate design choice by the author, but I agree it would have made the kit more useful to have had some on the sprue. At least North ...
A further point with flintlocks is that the guns, especially the pistols, were handcrafted by gunsmiths and not mass produced until around 1800. Design and decoration varied a great deal, too.
Because of the RPG Pendragon I do collect some 6th century stuff. My interests are more medieval and later though.
@Patrick Salvail Outstanding work. Looks a bit like a Puma... Which makes sense.
@Geoff Maybury Fascinating detail. Is that screw plug on the Centurian?
The aluminum armor melting isn't actually a big deal. Hear me out. Pound for pound aluminum armor is generally stronger than steel. The M113 had armor equivalent to any APC...
Greetings, I’m Pat and I’ve been collected and painting figurines since 1987. I’ve started with GW stuff (first with their plastic Rogue Trader Space Marines ) and ...
I wonder which Periods of Antiquity you folks do play? Because the Poll limit you to only one possible answer, choose your favorite Period and comment which further Periods you also play.
@Joshua Qualtieri I would certainly be in the market for a couple of 28mm Kites. They are part of the charm of the world you have created. And it looks like a bunch of my 1/43 WW2...
@Joshua Qualtieri Yes, that is a commonly tragic turn of events it seems. Well, perhaps this forum space may work for you as a back up to Discord and Facebook?
@Joshua Qualtieri I like the mix of hats covering their eyes that you have created, very pleased with the heads in caps on the sprue. But hatless heads being available is a great idea as well....
