So what do the Valkir proxy as if you were to use them in 40k or other games like it?

Reptillian Dino Calvary. And the Option for Einherjar to ride them.
@Jay H. I second this.
@Alessio De Carolis I have some of the savage core "savage amazons" done by Lucid Eye, they are exactly what I would like see for fantasy female barbarians in plastic and they would be far more use...
I think it'd be great to get samurai cavalry and special barding for the existing horse set, too!
My wife was just suggesting how much cooler a Mongolian calvary set would be rather than the Grognards set (I disagree, but a Mongolian set would be pretty great).
The option to vote for "all flavors of cavalry" got me thinking: what would be YOUR preferred flavor of cavalry? As much as I want dinosaurs with optional sci-fi bits à la Dino Ride...
@Caratacus Wargames Atlantic has stated they are planning to release the occasional model set as a bonus early or late in the month. Maybe those are on the teaser as a space fill? I guess ...
Good catch, glad to see them soon!
@Miyuso Hmmmh..... + Could be on to something here.
Anyone had a chance to print these yet? Wondering how they'd look with some Persians
@Grumpy Gnome I did this yesterday: Come on, you know you want this: And you actually save $47 by spending $47 ;)
I am tempted by the Battlefield Debris box and some of those Project you sprues. Then of course it makes sense to get to 90 Euros for free postage to Germany... so maybe the new Army Painter speed ...
@Grumpy Gnome Wow. They look good. Does North Star "do" all the Oathmark, Frostgrave, and Stargrave plastics? Or do they just sell them? If they produce plastics it might r...
@Caratacus Pretty sure those are Hobbits. Otherwise those children look like their about 40. The "Druid" looks like a classic fantasy wizard to me. He even has the obliga...
Sneak Peak from 2 DEC 22: Looks about right: And from the WGA release schedule:
@William Redford I should have grabbed an AWI sprue or two for pistol hands for Silver Bayonet conversions.
@JTam I will check it out. I love the ECW sprues for the sabers. They make excellent rapiers for rpg conversions... and I wouldn't mind having some of those bikes or that cannon.
@Geoff Maybury Ah, you're right the bike bases are integral to the sprue. Great. Glad this info was of use to you :) Just a great deal. I picked up a bunch of the modern milita...
@Desmond Woolston Thanks for the additional info. I'll get that over to the team for fixing.
@Geoff Maybury Yeah the sales arent like the old days, and as JTam said really just make the prices closer to last years. I did buy 3 minis from Hasselfree's sale. They shipped about 20 days...
An icredible job, for your next project, if employed in an urban war scenario, can I suggest the old (very hard sci-fi) Berlin Brigade camo scheme ? https://www.emlra.org/index.php/library/general...
@H M Exactly, if you think that the army that defeated Attila's Huns was composed (contrary to common people's/Hollywood belief) pratically only by Rome's allies or barbarian mercenaries, it seems ...
@BS Kitbasher Crocodile Games' Amazons are really well done, plus there are a lot of female characters in the same range that could be inserted in their army, Lucid Eyes' are also well done, with t...
@Miyuso This was my idea when voted for Sea Elves, logically they should be not armoured and light kitted, after all being in armour on a boat is a little too dangerous.
@Grumpy Gnome These seems really beutiful minis, I hope they'll give justice to the protagonists, this period is really fascinating (as long you don't live in it!). Plus these minis could be used a...
Lower classes were more concerned with praticity than fashion, this was the primary reason for so few differences btw 13th till early 16 century. And some weapons employed by infantry (very well!) ...
@JTam You get the bike and foot bases Tam, and guess what thats part my X-mas present, from Eileen she saw your post went on and bingo. Waited for these sprues for along time, very suprised y...
Reportedly some folks made use of Zombiesmith’s Black Friday sale to procure some Quar Christmas presents for me.
@Mark Dewis Yes thes only time the Guards ever went into combat with bearskins was during the Crimean War. Although, my favorite uniform from that conflict has to be the rifle brigade which again d...
Public Service Announcement: The Warlord Black Friday sale is still going. The Biker Gang box is still in the clearance section for $29.00. That's a decent price. But Warlord...
Got a box in from Warlord from their Black Friday sale. They have free shipping to the USA at $80 now... And unfortunately $80 is way to easy to get to these days. Anyway here's the loot: The ...
Share your Black Friday / Cyber Monday hobby loot here. Live vicariously or help others to ;)
@Geoff Maybury There were some decent sales. On the other hand an item being 25% off now means it costs what it did a year ago (at least in the USA). The Warlord sale is still ...
My favorite design so far is from Crocodile games, followed by McDougall's fantasy/comic book amazons. I'd also be interested in the leopard-print amazons and the other Scythian type (I alrea...
@Mark Dewis Exactly. Considering Mordheim was a $60 game in a box 20+ years ago, $85 for the Kill Team starter set (game in a box) isn't too bad.
Absolutely hoping for WGA to do their Mercenaries and Militia. You already know from my review video how I think the Conquistadors are perfect for Mordheim, and these guys are literally an improved...
The weapons in this set are wonderful. I immediately saw potential for my Turnip 28 forces. Those rakes will make great Loper feet (my favorite force), and there's lots of Red Ribbon potential on ...
@Mold as it happens, the bearskin look is around for the Crimean war. What you're asking for are army fillers for the British foot guards (Grenadier, Coldstream and Scots).
@Lord Marcus Heads 21, 27, 28, 29, and 30 are missing from the presupported list. They are in the unsupported list.
So a while back I was working on ideas for a High Seas 28mm game with various races who fought battles on boats (like boarding actions). My thought for the elves was essentially Barbary Pirates mad...
For those that would have liked Sikh and Hindu heads, there is a problem that they did wear different style uniforms (tunics rather than jackets). Best done as their own kit, since you need differe...
@Mark Dewis I totally agree that's why I mentioned it would be more practical for the beginning half of the century. Although, I still stand by the parade idea because I think that would be cool bu...
@Alessio De Carolis yeah. It was just an idle thought. I'm pretty sure no tropical kit was issued for European use. You might get an eccentric officer - the Brits were nororious for that - or MAYBE...
@jon gawne Thanks for sharing your observations. Do you have any pictures of the event? That sounds awesome!
@JTam Wargaming the First World War is a niche as we both know. We don't really have any numbers on the overlap between Western Front and other fronts so we can only speculate but I can't imagine i...
"Age of Conquests" takes in the Crimean War and American Civil War, where massed ranks of musketry were still in use. There's certainly a post-Napoleonic niche for simple posed figures to bulk out ...
I think the army builder kits that Wargames Atlantic does for the Napoleonic period would work pretty well for the earlier part of this century. I think they could even release some miniatures in t...
@Alessio De Carolis oh, the old Wargames Factory Amazons are horrible. It's not even "proportions" - the poses are stiff and the armour manages to somehow miss both historical and fantasy use. I ha...
