Hmmm the selfishness is amazing lol. The one guy said he hopes they could compromise, the other guy says I'm gonna take my ball and go home if I don't get what I want. Yeah, not feeling the vi...

Second vote for Ape Suits! 

The Stargrave troopers and mercs are screaming for shoulder pads. 

I have 2 of the smaller Armadillos. They are perfect for 28mm as a small landing craft. 

Looks great. 

Fascinating! I've been thinking about getting a sprue of the English riflemen and some of the Prussians to bash together for a Prussian warband. 

I'm currently awaiting a box of British Riflemen and the Warlord Waterloo starter kit. In the meantime I have obtained some interesting reading for monsters.

For those of you buying fantasy sets. If a box came with 5 sprues of 6 models. Would it influence you positively or negatively if one of the bodies on the sprue, and say 1/5 of the options on the s...

@Stephen Rodgers is this for the box art? The models themselves would be open to whatever system the user is buying them for. Unless of course WA makes their own game system. Which would likel...

@William Ings I like this idea. I remember way back when WA did the pill that got us the conquistadors and Aztecs, it was presented as "which adversaries would you buy". The thought of having ...

With the release of Firelock Games new rule set "Blood and Steel," I think creating plastic kits to suit the needs of the various periods covered (and to be covered by additional supplements--liter...

@Grumpy Gnome I had read that post before but not that thread. Very interesting, especially seeing which qualities stand out to players the most based on preference. At this point, I'd play either ...

I think the safest way of presenting any fantasy race as a real world culture is to do it as a historical-fantasy "civil war" theme. As in Germanic Horde vs Orc Horde, Japanese Shogun vs Oni/Hobgob...

@Alex Core lol. Yes. I like the figures that the company has shown and want to buy a box of what they are making absolutely translates to a weird fetish. :) you are absolutely right. :) you wi...

@William Redford Wow....Just wow. Yes, some people like them. Some people do not. I would hope the makers would be able to come to a compromise. I do not know if I said it or someone else, but...

With this set, hopefully I can make a Leprechaun in space tribute game... The marines will have to battle a Halfling in leprechaun colors...  Leprechaun in Space!   Or Jason X... and...

@Alex Core My counter to that is, this is what the set is. You can see the pictures. People like them. This is what is being made. If you dont like them, its cool, you know not for everyone. I dont...

@William Redford I want modernesque sci fi infantry I can use as Cadians, but I do not want models that look like Cadians, or Aliens Marines, or Staship Troopers guys. If I wanted those, I would ju...

I would hope the Knock Off's alternate heads will make them look like the Colonial Marines. They might not be showing them for a reason. The pants are awful. 

@Daniel Broaddus It is great to hear the game is working well for you. I prefer Sharp Practice but that is not to say M&T is not an excellent game.  The most well articulated compar...

This will hopefully work.

@Geoff Maybury I would wait for the modern operators to be released. They'll probably have historic scale grenade launchers.

@Steven StGeorges Thanks! I am thinking about using sprues for larger ladders in bigger buildings I have been planning to do. I plan to use as much of the sprues as I can, after I empty all of...

It seems the link is restricted to just group members. If anyone has miniatures from both companies, please post shots of them. I believe perry has a consistent scale (excluding the 40mm Ranges and...

@Geoff Maybury The door is still open for "real marines" or other USA death field teams, as Hudson Adams said. Hopefully the set is a success so that they do the female set that Hudson stated.. Bei...

@Grumpy Gnome I have about 20 Cadians and 2 Cadian weapon teams... from WAAAAAAAAY back in the day... I think I bought them in 2007 ish? I liked them then... but now they just look big headed and h...

@JTam these are amazing! Thanks for the lead on them. Yes I have picked up the Muskets and Tomahawks rule set. I really like it. It takes a couple of read throughs to really get it but I've played ...

@Daniel Broaddus Thinking about these rules, after a very pleasent night watching,"Pride and Prejudice and Zombies" both Eileen and myself really enjoyed the film, so these rules could be a hit.

@William Redford They came, they rant, we kicked there ugly a**. "Oh Rahs". Even persuaded me to want some, and try Deathfields. Would still have been more happy with real models, as in the "Spec O...

I was able to find this. I should think that they'll work just fine. https://m.facebook.com/groups/WargamesAtlanticLegion/permalink/1209574972854985/

I just picked up TSB and am so pumped about this ruleset. I plan on making a Spanish warband as soon as that set is available (hint hint WA) that I can also use for Muskets and Tomahawks. In the me...

@Jimil Louis There were indeed. Command could be done easily with options to replace weapons with communication gear. Scouts likewise could have reduced weapon load for additional recon gear.

@Alex Core so no colonial marine knock offs... cadian knock offs? @Jimil Louis we occasionally see@Hudson Adams hete. But not often. @Jayme Shaker wouldn't the name have to st...

Awesome guys! I love them. The old Catachan Codex was secretly one of the most powerful in 3rd edition that no one used!

I've done a few searches and can't seem to find photos with both Wargames Atlantic and Perry WW2 figures. Any two forces fine, just want to know if they look right next to eachother.

You've heard of Gaunt's Ghosts and Rico's Roughnecks? These guys will be Killians Knock-Offs. I'd like to see varied body types too. Maybe a space dwarf marine too? Can players cross teams in ...

Looking good! 

Ape Suits! Ape Suits! Would love some REAL MI armor. Weren't there other types of armor in the book as well? Scouts and Command????

Does the company read these boards? 

Love the MahReens! How about different body types, like fat guys or bean poles! I'm thinking Full Metal Jacket types! How about pilots, or non body armored guys? 

Modern Science Fiction infantry that is American oriented would be awesome! Interesting that they went for a futuristic take and not WW2 guys. I dig it. The guns do look awful. Too big, knock ...

Will the Hobgoblins have red faces?I saw someone refer to them as Greenskins. That's only in certain worlds.

@William Redford I don't want Colonial Marine knockoffs. I want modern not Cadians sci fi infantry.

I agree, the pants are awful. They do look like baggy fishing boots, or saggy leg warmers! I guess they are going for an 80's dancer look?

@Keith Gatchalian well. Just going by the responses here, on Dakka and on Facebook, it seems that's what people like about these. The point is to make something people want to buy. So if based on t...

@William Redford Except they are neither Colonial Marines or Mi. There are other companies that do those guys, so why make knock offs? 

@Keith Gatchalian I guess I am the opposite. I like them because they look like colonial marines or mobile infantry. They hit the sweet spot for nostalgia. I didn't notice the pants until I sa...

A. If you are not making 100% Colonial Marines, why make rifles that look like them? Make a generic sci fi rifle, so the figures will fit into any game or game system. I personally do not want to p...

I think having female historical-fiction/fantasy kits with a similar set up as Cannon Fodder 2 would be good. Females with arms compatible with their male counterparts is a cool concept. Having ra...

@Caratacus They are very close in height to the Kairic Acolytes, who (at least in the lore) shapeshifted their bodies to be as close to perfection as possible. They are mounted on the same bases to...
