Lately I've been digging Orville Peck. He's got a little of Roy Orbison, Chris Isaak, Dwight Yoakum, Marty Robins, and Elvis, and a nice bit of that sweet melancholy and darkness that mainstr...
@Hudson Adams I'm very surprised that he only mentioned Victrix when he makes transfers for Warlord and Gripping Beast as well, as you say, seems a bit hypocritical of him to make that comment. Tha...
@GreenScorpion There's a fun MEGA CLASSIC Soviet movie The Irony of Fate. The entire plot hinges on the fact all Soviet cities have the same streets with the same block buildings with the s...
@Steven StGeorges Might be worthwhile to wait and see what WGA releases: https://wargamesatlantic.com/community/xenforum/topic/79909/stand-by-for-a-monumental-figure-release-ooh-rar-hell-ye...
"She`s a cool "Opperator" sorry couldn`t resist. She`s even more qute in my "Bennie" bless her.
@William Redford My hat brought for me by Eileen spends also a lot of time on our Tia, "Girls just like to have fun."
@Hudson Adams In the dark future and blackness of space, no one can hear you scream!... and fashion is everything! I think the biggest issue with the "hat head" is it kind of looks big. Bu...
My only hesitation is buying more than one box, because of the upcoming army builder boxes. Apart from that, I will definitely buy them, only the quantity is in question. The sprue looks gre...
@JTam I know, they are quite nice sets and are extremely modular.I bought the military compound and built a few fortifications some time ago: They look nice for fortifications due to the ...
@JTam Only had a LOT -free caps- of positive returns from friends that did buy Mantic stuff (fantasy or scifi).. could be the best terrain sets. Will dig blogosphere for pertinent reviews.&n...
@Mithril2098 @Steven StGeorges Selling repackaged 20mm for 28mm games is weak sauce.
@JTam Another couple of pretty good reviews https://taleofpainters.com/2015/04/review-warlord-gamesitaleri-wrecked/ https://mustcontainminis.com/2019/05/28mm-wrecked-house-review-warlord-g...
@GreenScorpion Mantic makes some nice undestroyed scenery: These are slightly damaged, but still look better than most of Chicago:
@Grumpy Gnome Since you and Miss GG are more aware about, maybe you could enlight us about Core Space sets? 😁
Are you guys seriously arguing about what a hat is going to look like in 300 years?
@Caratacus We had approached LBMS about making shield transfers but he told us that since he was part of Victrix it was a conflict of interest. (Despite making shield transfers for every other comp...
@Grumpy Gnome I know things get way more expensive with Archon in retail, but in my personal case anything that is exclusively purchased by debit/credit card is an issue (my bank requires in-app va...
These new figures are surely very interesting and are open to an endless string of conversions, given the fact that judging from some images,WGA stuff is compatible with Stargrave's arms & weap...
Plus lets not forget our "Bugs"
@Berggeit @William Redford Thanks for the comparison pics. I find it interesting how their heads do look big compared to the (for some reason tiny) Stargrave head and those from WGA's Napoleonics, ...
It looks like there`a a real theme comming along with these, throw in some robots, and drones, with that power armour, and we will have a grand set. I`m now thinking they will paint nice as, "Red H...
@William Redford Found it, thanks.
I certainly like the look of these a lot, and a good call from WGA to make these to accompany their sets of armoured Late Romans. The shield sprue I'm particularly impressed by, I wonder if ...
Great stuff. I see more potential miniatures for Middle-Earth. Hopefully these shield sprues will also be sold separately. Would love to use dark age rounds shields with my Oathmark miniatures.&nbs...
@John Wilson Facebook. Hudson posted it as a comment to someone commenting on the oohrah painted pictures post.
Rumor has it that Archon Studio is doing the plastic Ogres for Mantic. That should be quite a change from Mantic’s usually soft sculpting.
Look good to me. I want to do an Arthurian Romano-Briton project but not sure when I will find the time... so a box of these are on my wishlist now.
@William Redford Where did that picture come from?
Okay, having seen the scenery.....these guys, the power armour and the bugs seem to be coming together for a starship troopers style game.
@JTam Hold it right there brother, a certain U.S. Air Force Senior Master Sergeant may care to disagree about the Air Force using chinstraps on their boonie caps... https://commons.wik...
I also can not see the photo but it sounds good.
As someone else suggested, perhaps some sort of Feral Shadowkesh kind of thing?
WGA posted on their blog about new unarmored late Roman Infantry: https://wargamesatlantic.com/blogs/news/new-set-announced-unarmored-late-roman-infantry As noted in the article the separ...
@Mithril2098 Excellent point. This kit seems stranger though. Some pieces and one of the door work fine for 28mm. Other pieces and the other door are indeed more sized for 20mm/...
i've not watches the series yet (its on my list) but IMO most of the non-GW Numenorean/Gondorian/Arnorian figure needs can be done using the WGA late Roman figures and giving them different heads a...
@JTam it isworth noting that a lot of the Warlord Boltaction terrain kits were originally created for 20mm/1:72 scale diaramas by Italeri, and as a result end up way too small for the 28mm figures....
it is worth notingthat the Optio's knobbed staff did originate as a club, one of their main jobs was enforcing discipline both on and off the field, and ensuring that troops stay in formation and n...
the recently announced unarmored late roman legionarres would be ideal for roman-british troops. generally only the nobility and their retainers would have access to metal armor, most of the infant...
Also Michelle seems to have traded in her Luger for a Webley or similar top-break revolver.
Maria just got mailed to Switzerland. This is some bullsh*t.

@Steven StGeorges Thanks for the background. I appreciate it. Always interesting to learn new things. It might have been the Haggard version on the radio. I don't remember...
@Steven StGeorges Good to know. @Grumpy Gnome Also good to know.
@Alessio De Carolis Nice find.
@Grumpy Gnome Reference: The Air Force wears boonies like that. Sometimes they do the "shrimp in the barbie" one flap up thing while they're at it. Now if your discounting the...
