I wouldn't call them active, exactly, but for some reason they still exist. It's crazy to think it has been 13 years since that thread started and there's still nothing on the market that really fi...

@Stephen Sutton I was on that forum a lot before things went sour and I was also active on the Defiance games forum until the guy running it (having been forced out of Wargames Factory) turned out ...
Your phone may not have it (almost every digital camera will, though), but macro mode mostly just affects focus depth, optimised for taking shots of small, close in things. If your shots are in foc...
Yes, I agree that Warlord probably overpriced the stuff they snapped up and reboxed from WGF... but to know how much you'd need to know what they paid for it. Honestly, I never liked the Mod...
@Mark Dewis Actually given they where always on the 40% off side of the "black Friday sale" on the old WGF store and were kind of a pain to build, I get the feeling the civilians didn't actually do...
I wonder if anyone else here is a veteran of this thread: https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/wargamesfactory/generic-power-armoured-suit-and-weapons-t964139.html
Ajax Commander with battle damage. Maybe somthing more like this? I believe that Anvil is porting over to MyMiniFactory, which I think will let people order print on demand(I double checked i...
I've never read the books, but from the sound of it The Ajax Mech from Anvil's Digital Forge might hit the spot. Not to sure about the jump part tho. They are only in STL for now, but there is...
I don't think the Eisenkern sets currently available from Wargames Atlantic are very much taller than the Cannon Fodder - I've mixed-and-matched pieces between these sets with no trouble at all, an...
Fair enough! I had no idea there was even a concept sketch out there, so I pretty much took it for granted until now that WGA's giant spiders - with the biomechanical bits - would be the prox...
https://secureservercdn.net/198.71.233.230/616.6fe.myftpupload.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/Eisenkern-Scale-Comparison-Image.jpg Slightly taller than the Death Field Raumjagers and Grognards. The...
Nice looking stuff! I might end up having to downsize my gaming habit and I'll sit this Kickstarter out, but if I were in the market for big terrain, this looks like it would be perfect...
@Estoc It's got good variety, which is the only reason I didnt jump on the Sci-Fi set. They mentioned more variety for Sci-Fi in future printings, so I'll keep my eye out for that. This...
I've seen similar kickstarters but this is the first with interiors.
@John Wilson They appear (kind of hard to tell without comparision shots) to be taller than average, which I interpreted as power armor, but maybe not.
@Mark Dewis That's with a filter, unfortunately. I'm unsure what a macro mode is. I used A white piece of paper, but I don't think I have a lamp of that kind.
@Hudson Adams Thank you for providing this forum... I refuse to use Facebook and would hate to miss out on this information. It would be neat if WGA looked into the various castes of bugs u...
@Viking Cowboy actually, not that they shouldn't be done, but for Fantasy the Nappy cannons, Spanish Succsion cannons, ACW, etc. all work, Perry and WGA are about neck and neck price wise, and Slud...
@JTam There where none really beyond this and its clearly a 2D concept sketch of a bug being compared to an Ooh-Rah render, it was possibly done last week.
@Estoc The Eisenkern are wearing pretty much Star Wars style stormtrooper/clonetrooper style armour. It could also be armour like in the Roughnecks tv series. I'd usually not class it as powered ar...
@Mark Dewis Fair point. You can train anything except intestinal fortitude and motivation.
I'm mostly lazy and just try to get as good a shot as I can with my phone camera, using available light. If I want a GOOD shot, a neutral coloured paper background plus a desk lamp, exactly as Ber...
Hey, all! I wanted to share this with folks who might not be aware of it: This is the pre-launch page for Acid House Terrain's latest Kickstarter for quick-assembling fold-flat terrain. This is th...
@Arrigo Velicogna WGF/Warlord tried and failed on the multiple option Modern Military, but the civilian Apocalypse Survivor kits were resounding successes. For my money the best bet would be...
@William Redford That Victrix kit is nice, I just wish it wasn't napoleonic. I really dig the early modern/late medieval period and find the battlefields of of the napoleonic period comparatively b...
I would like to subscribe to your newsletter. But yeah, I'll take any and all of that. Having just bought a box of WSS artillery... a Wargames atlantic kit would have been very nice. V...
Perhaps one of the rarest sort of models is plastic artillery, I only know of two, that being Warlord's Wars of the Sun King's kit and Perry's Civil War Artillery. The exotic nature is furher compo...
The Eisenkern look heavy enough to use for both, but I don't own a kit so don't know.
@John Wilson I thought the animated movies were better than the live action movies but that the animated tV show “Roughnecks” was better than the animated movies. All of these bein...
@Grumpy Gnome I did like the change of the Fallout power armour in to a piloted exo-skeleton rather than a suit. I just watched Invasion and I'm going to watch traitor of mars since I never ...
The Martian Power Armor in The Expanse was pretty good. As is the power armor in Fallout 4. Not really what I think of as power armor... but the big suits in Avatar are pretty cool too. I d...
@Geoff Maybury Valkir wise, I plan to distribute a couple to each stormtrooper squad. Although it going to depend on the loadout that comes in the box really.
@Grumpy Gnome @William Redford , We still have the "Black Friday" sales, however, they seldom have any wargame items for me. If Rubicon as a 20% sale, I bet you my recquirments are none stock, can`...
@John Wilson Said of the Valkir many a time if the flank support was gone,or overrun with low ammo, you were in a world of hurt. We used to sell the complete Mongouse Range, sold all my collection ...
@Frank Reischmann That may work out... My rough plan would be Ooh Rah for the movie light mobile infantry, Eisenkern with Cannon Fodder spacesuit helmets as tv series suited mobile infantry and Va...
@John Wilson I had 2 boxes from the M I... but after lying 20 jears unopend in my basement I sold it to a frind... As MI you can use Iron-Core-Troopers I think... just for movie-M I o...
@Frank Reischmann Yeah, mainly based on the tv series I believe. Very hard to find at anything other than crazy pricing at this point. Also shows the problem of having a miniature line tied to some...
@JTam Its probably what many people would now call power armour (myself often included), the book is still the primary source for me (i've a old copy around here somewhere), but there is also the m...
A few jears ago there was "mongoose-games"... they had a miniatur game about starship troopers... Klick me Great Minis... bugs were great...
Going back to the source. Mobile Infantry is all power armored. Heavily armored and heavily armed it's the built in jet pack that provide the "Mobile" and lets them be "On the bounce!"&...
So....... We have the Spiders, bugs are apparently a possibilty and the Ooh Rah's will make good movie light mobile infantry but what are the possibilities of getting the heavy option. Be it the p...
@Grumpy Gnome Yeah had a look and it looks like Mark posted stuff on facecbook in an attempt to get a reaction out of facebook, over a friend of his being banned. He clarified his position over on ...
@JTam Thought crime? What do you mean?
I sure hope that's PLA...
@Yronimos Whateley I think it was a bunch of polls about bug size and such, as well as a post about "what do you want in bugs?" Something along those lines. I don't think there w...
Hey everyone - I don't have a Facebook account, would anyone mind dropping any of the Facebook teasers here? It would be greatly appreciated! This is the first I've heard of the bugs!&n...
So, having watched @Yronimos Whateley 's movie recomendation, I found another. A Horror movie called "Daughters of Satan" daughters of satan trailer The movie is not bad (but not great) and stars ...
And now we are worried about Thought Crime. Awesome.
@John Wilson I have been given a lead on the matter. There is a short discussion about it on the WGA news thread over on DakkaDakka for those looking for more information on it.
@Benjamin Hayward that was just after I installed the shelf. After that it become a mess 😂
