I would suggest these Brits with the sun helmets work for more than just WW1. Both “Pulp” and “Back of Beyond” gaming for example... https://www.copplestonecastings....

@Mark Dewis Just what would you say the ratio of Western Front to all other WW1 Theaters gamers is? I know there some weird street cred with historical gamers about gaming/talki...

Although I still think they should add an officer body to the sprue, among other things, technically you can still make one with a regular soldiers body as seen in the image below.
@Geoff Maybury Cheers Brother!
@William Ings This is me but with the Kill Team Starter set
Thank you, Comrade. I agree with you : Lafayette was a very great and interesting character. At the same time Monarchist, without excess, and moderate but sincere Republican, abolitionist and good...
You make some excellent points@Pierre Lerdou-Udoy Ah Napoleon. A military genius and political disappointment. Many Americans know a bit about “Lafayette” from basic American Wa...
Hello JTam... No problem for the acronym SYW : I hesitated only 4 or 5 seconds ! I improve my English with you, that's great. Grumpy Gnome, mein guter Freund, the question of the "window of opport...
@JTam @JTam Earlly days still for you"Brother" one day I hope you to could have your dream vehicle I started young some of the group did not but till in their mid 50/60`s Time is on your side...
@JTam No a rather nice buget print set of rules for skirmish games in the Late roman through Viking and Normans. Ground scale is what your figures are and 1man is 1 man. No, 5" command contro...
True@Geoff Maybury... especially in their own language.
@Grumpy Gnome History my good Gnome friend, will always be wrote by the aleged winner😉.
I still believe the French had a chance but admittedly it would have been a small one. And I do believe that history has shown quality can at times best quantity. That said, battles are usually wo...
@Pierre Lerdou-Udoy Yes, SYW is the Seven Years War. My apologies, I deliberately try and avoid abreviations but I slip up sometimes. France never had a real chance in the...
@Lord Marcus @Alessio De Carolis There's some ideas here: https://wargamesatlantic.com/community/xenforum/topic/59614/the-trojan-war-iliad-odyssey My original idea was a box for lightly ar...
@Caratacus Gorechosen! That sounds right. I remember a lot of people talking about how it was actually a very good individual combat game. The two box sets could not just nest m...
@Yronimos Whateley The Gundam kits in 1/100 are a good match for 28mm minis, there are some kits in 1/60 scale of an old serie Patlabor, plus those from Full metal Panic, same scale. For real power...
@Lord Marcus The heroes could be STL files, but a boxed set of the various kind of infantry could be useful, don't forget that only the very rich could afford armour in those times, so mostly of th...
They seems Bulldogs with Stargrave bits.
@Alessio De Carolis Despite America’s failure to secure Canada, remember militias had stood up to a professional army not that long before... personally I think the Canadian militia play...
Effectively there were a lot of conversions in patrol vehicles of the bren carriers let behind after Dunkirk, the Luftwaffe armed them with a 3,7cm pak 36 and used them as airport security, the sam...
@Grumpy Gnome I never toughts about this alternate history, perhaps the french would've sold anyway Louisiana to Jefferson, or otherwise could've allied themselves with the USA to distract UK 's re...
Ya, I think I would prefer little lizard dudes to rank up with my lizard men. Some not-Skinks, with sniper rifles for Death Fields. I would like these guys if they where 100% dog, like a barbaric ...
Heads for a dog are great the neck body etc are pumped with steroids not a good look , slim then down take of the lizard tail put on a dog, Put some nice Ooh -Rah slim line weaponary and you ...
@JTam I really would have liked them to be dog like, slimmer and inverted legs. Why is every thing "Human" on steroids all of a sudden? . Can`t we get away from the human stature, and body struture...
@JTam Would you be thinking of Gorechosen? I seem to recall it did develop a bit of a following. A Trojan War boxed game would be great - if WGA would spend more time making new markets like this ...
@JTam I've started to notice that a lot regarding some of WA's box sets - the shots of the New Kingdom Egyptians we've seen and some of the Dark Ages Irish also look unnaturally ripped, especially ...
@Geoff Maybury Shield Wall the Hail Caesar expansion?
@Alessio De Carolis Reference: It sounds like Wargames Atlantic will be able to test the waters a little with the "Trojan Chariot" kit. It would be amazing if they (Wargames ...
@Alessio De Carolis Reference: I never thought about it that way before. You're right, it was a cataclysmic time.
@Berggeit I kind of missed this the first time around. (Out of state, limited internet). But this is a really cool idea. I hope you will post the army build here if you continue...
@JTam that would make a good kit in and of itself. Or two. Basically, make a kit for Mycenaean heroes (which would basically be 6 characters figs in one pack) and a set for the Trojans. &...
I don't buy the line that it was too hard to do the X staps; every other manufacturer (Warlord, Perry) does not seem to have any issues with that. Feels more like the sculptor made a mistake and it...
I think I may also jump on this band wagon. This idea would also translate to One Page Rules well. There are a lot of Feng Shui ornaments one can use as statue golems on sites like Ali Express. Yo...
Worth mentioning that any cardboard design can be done in plasticard too. The cost doesn't have to be excessive - you can often find polystyrene sheet used for packaging, such as stiffening shirts....
I've been considering the renders a little more, and the elbows-in-shoulders and wrists-in-elbows style arms are growing on me. If the armour is doing all the work, then the only real concern is th...
@Red Bee Halfling Cavalry are in "additional sculpting" according to the release schedule.
@Andy Phillips I just meant that the odds of the tankettes finding unsupported infantry in the desert were very low.
Here you go: Tomorrow i'll be fixing the overspray and adding the details (periscopes, lights, gun barrels and a coat of varnish before weathering). Let's hope there is not much work to do...
Well, that's what feedback is for. I expect the STLs are an early version made available as a bonus rather than the finished product. We see "returned for further sculpting" on the plastic sets all...
Very interesting photo. Not really surprising. The Italians had over 2.000 units, and the Germans had maybe 5.000 (or more) Austrian, Czech, Polish, Belgian, Dutch, French, Norwegian, Greek, Yugos...
These look great! How did you make them, I can't work out what set they're from?
There is some excellent Sci-fi Card models (free too) over at www.genetmodels.com -> Free stuff Dropships, Trucks, IFVs, 4*4s plus a whole host of scenery and scatter terrain. Apparently you ca...
Not bad... 👍 ... looks good... Weathering now?... no black or yellow colorstripes für that camo? I am exited...
@Pierre Lerdou-Udoy Oh they got around.
Real coffins on tracks ! Developed in the 1930s, especially in France, Italy (and Japan), tankettes, or "chenillettes" in French, found themselves completely outclassed after the war in Spain. The...
One of my favorite “What ifs...” is “What If Napoleon had not bent to the sugar plantation owners and reinstated slavery in the French Caribbean Islands?” Then the arm...
@Marc Nelson Jr.
Ene Anaiak (my Brothers), I suppose that the acronym SYW means Seven Years War... Right ? La Guerre de sept Ans, in French. The English were much wiser and more insightful than us, French. Not gi...
