So, in anticipation of the ogres, I bought 2 mournfsng riders off eBay. I plan on converting these to landsknecht ogre cavalry. The legs and torso is seperate so I am thinking only the cat-beast, t...

The USA swap it out for their own Civil War. It's no accident that Perry Miniatures' first experiments in plastic were ACW infantry and cavalry. WW2 is still the biggest seller everywhere, though. ...

If tabletop miniatures wargaming has a center of mass, it's probably the UK.  And the UK (and maybe the Commonwealth?) obviously is interested in the English Civil War.  But I don't thin...

So I've seen this photo many times..... but never knew who she was. (Note the M35 blouse, subdued collar tabs, and early rifle scope combo.  Based on how early in the war this was, I always...

Spanish Warband for "Silver Bayonet": L to R: Officer (crappier stats in exchange for 105 buying power), Priest, 5 x Irregulars, 1 x counts as Infantryman (the monk with musket) for a total of ...

@Geoff Maybury I Like the idea of different height levels for the flight stand. I opted for only one magmetic base with a spherical magnet to allow some movement/swivel. When landed I simply put th...

I have had friends try to explain the injustices happening in Spain right now. It saddens me to hear of it still continuing and with the EU would do something to resolve the situation.

@William Redford Dam thats a bit 50/50 was it not, good luck Bill, routing for you.

@Andreas Mayrhofer What ever style of magnetic base you make,how about 2/3. One just of the floor, "Huey Jump Out", one nape of the earth,weapon fire , and lastly  if safe to do so a High flig...

@JTam yeah. They answered promptly but a bit unsatisfactory. They said I will be sent a mix of what is currently available which SHOULD be all 7...  im still debating it. 

@JTam  Tested LR 1st ed. during lockdown, thanks to some friends.. like most of miniatures agnostic games, LR and DR are easy and fast sets of rules and only need far less models than WFB for...

Thank you for agreeing, Citizen (and good fellow)... Civil War is not yet History for us, in Spain and southern part of France, because of the Law of Amnesty of 1977, still valid. In Spain, the Vi...

@Karol Siadul Well that is surprising, but shipping to and from Europe has always been kinda of tough.

@Estoc Is this a fantasy project or projects? If it is, you will likely have more fun with the skellies. Also you may want to skip the goths for now and do the Romans instead in that case,  u...

@JTam Going to be honest the cartoonish thing is one of the issues I have with "Heroic" proportions in general. @Mark Dewis Nah you where right the first time, it is the shoulder pads. Proportiona...

Well, the Turks were mentioned in the original post, but yes. On the other hand, compared to the 30 years War and the English Civil War, other campaigns of the era do not get much attention. It's e...

@JTam Actually stuff vanishing is just a general problem with the digital age, even forums can vanish into the abyss (speaking from experiance). @Mark Dewis  what you are discribing as "Triba...

@Mark Dewis  Well, you left out the Turks.  They were kind of a big deal ;) I've never seen a black powder era game in real life..... but I imagine it's just like antiquities where the ...

https://wargamesatlantic.com/blogs/news/ooh-rah-paint-test Painted test model posted. Looks good.

Interesting.  The cover certainly suggests you could do some Death Fields Bugs versus Cannon Fodder action. Are you a fan of Lion or Dragon Rampant? I know it's a fairly popular system... bu...

For Death Fields, absolutely. Apart from anything else, you might sell some to old school Warhammer Fantasy Kislevite fans. But for historical wargamers they may fall outside the major wars of int...

Received Osprey Publisings newsletter (some days ago), and they are going to release next November the 24th, a scifi wargame extension based on their Lion Rampant system. https://ospreypublishing....

"Beastfolk" is probably a good name for these. And I'm not sure anyone is really doing them in cheaper plastic. Frostgrave has the Gnolls, but those have very distictly Hyena heads.  I would ...

I have to admit I hadn't taken in that there are 10 wolfhounds in the kit. I reckon I'll pick a box up at some point - I've probably got enough "Dark" Age minis really, but these do add variety and...

Defiance games folded before the Power Armor figures got much further than a WIP early 3D art file. and the original artwork was by flyingdebris, so you may want to direct inqueries about that to h...

So if the kit included Death Fields sci fi parts like  cyborg horse heads and explosive lance tips.... And if the "lobster" thigh armor was part of the torso and not the legs......   ...

the more lightly armoured pancerni would also double as kossack and tatar noble cavalry.

@Davy Jones  And a couple of those baller fur hats:

a good mix a plate, scale, chain or segmented mail would be good, as well as helmets.  

winged lancers or winged hussars, doesnt matter, just get the lads with wings.  

@Don Williams  Thank You. That's a superior review. I believe the author posted a review on the WGA Aztec kit here: https://wargamesatlantic.com/community/xenforum/topic/74577/plastic-aztec...

Yeah this was part of one of the polls. I voted for them... I would get a couple boxes. In the Midgard campaign settimg, Zobeck has winged lancers. I would definitely have a place for these.  ...

For anyone considering purchase of the Dark Age Irish Warriors box, this review offers a very thorough look as well as a close up comparison with Gripping Beast plastic figures. You'll see the rang...

@Vitor Soares  Same here, always loved the look of that particular unit... could be quite a good addition to any scifi/fantasy or historical collection.

Preview link This is relaunching this month. 

I agree, it would probably be a big selling kit, not really for me, but I can see it.   

@Grumpy Gnome  "On Saturday I'm willing, if you'll only take the shilling, to make a man of any one of you." ... but I do prefer "Dulce et decorum est. Pro patria mori." a poem written ...

@William Redford  Did you email Eureka/get a reply yet? I need to email them about this mini: (Miniature painted by Ty Chapman). I can't find it on the website.

A thread for Winged Hussars: https://wargamesatlantic.com/community/xenforum/topic/79751/polish-winged-hussar

@Davy Jones @Blutze  There's always a place for more Landsknechts.   There's a huge ready made audience Thanks to Warhammer.  Even 1/5 of the plastic Landsknechts market is st...

@William Redford You Know Bill, we think quite alike, with our RPG`s and figures, it certainly would be nice to see some Moreau`s around,they are in my D-20 Modern RPG.  I`ve only scratched a ...

@Andreas Mayrhofer  You were in the Heer?  What time frame?

@Andreas Mayrhofer  The weathering on the gunship looks really good. Really like the picture of the gunship set down with the troops deploying out of the side door.

@Geoff Maybury Yeah. I would likely buy a box. I can use them in RPGS. From Wild shaped Druids, to awakened animals or animal companions or even as a Proxy for things like Vanara. And by Proxy, I r...

Just recentlly whilst looking at The Drowned Earth, and The Dead Earth, plus a couple of others. I`ve been amazed at the use of "Genectic Animals", for want of a better name Moreau animals, in new ...

@Grumpy Gnome Had my first look at the PDF rules, 85 pages form a 190 Hardback. Not bad, the sad part is the rules are infull and good, but it`s the major fluff thats missing and you`d really like ...

@Grumpy Gnome as a former Infantryman I second that

Modiphus wise, yeah pricing is a problem (along with them being all resin at the moment for me at least) which is why despite being a huge fallout fan I've not bought into Wasteland Warfare. Havin...

@Grumpy Gnome unfortunately, very true. And I come from a family with a lot of people in the military.
