@Hudson Adams My mistake! I've joined the RO Discord and I've seen that plastic mercs are coming :) great!
@Hudson Adams My mistake! I've joined the RO Discord and I've seen that plastic mercs are coming :) great!
It could be due to WA teaming up with Strange Plastic, I mean they got nothing but heat all the time with the only games prints as far as I could tell. The strange plastic team up artcle is here
All of the Wargames Atlantic models that were on Only-Games have disappeared. Was there an announcement that I missed?
Also some supporting Militia, from Partisans, with mainly french ww1 weapons, The french box being set up for 1940
@Nigel Martindale
Ejército Popular de la República Using WW1 russians with some french helmets, partisan berets budenovka mods to represent pasamontañas-style cap, and 2@ mortars from BEF box
Great stuff, better get my spanish civil war republicans and 1940 French finished so I can start the BEF in the new year
@Agus Sants Seems you haven't been paying attention ;-)
It seems that the jump to plastic from any RO set seems more and more remote... what a pity ;(
@Brian Van De Walker It does make sense for the gladiators to be digital. I hope they will get around to making the set more complete. The Spartacus Revolt set is lacking some important bits for tr...
@graham Hmm, from what I have seen in books and elsewhere while nasal helms where indeed the popular helms of the Viking Age (later Dark Ages) I am pretty sure the Spangenhelms as they are ca...
@Dennis Hilton Bro, the only real reasons for WA to consider anything close to the Warlord Scale is that Heavy Gear exists in 1/144 and the sweet Gunpla 1/144 model market's lack of human trooper m...
@Mithril2098 Maybe it should be static poses?
@Brian Van De Walker yeah, plus the fact that gladiator matches used very specific loadouts of armor and weapons, and usually paired specific loadouts agaisnt each other, makes it really hard to do...
@Andrew Stoeckle I honestly think both should just stay digital, there are too many darn weapon and helmet options and not enough games with a following for the subject matter since it would need t...
They're in the works for a special release in early 2025!
@Dennis Hilton Warlord wanted to make a "walled garden" with a figure size that isn't compatible with anyone elses. They've also not been consistent in their own sizes among those ranges. They tend...
Hi is there any news, previews or timings comming up for the BEF Support Weapon Teams mentioned a number of times durring preparation of the BEF pack? Thanks
Mithril, The Punic Wars which the Hannibal game the newest Epic release is neither Napolionic nor ACW. And if you listen to the most recent podcast the owner mentions a HYW Epic release in the fut...
@Dennis Hilton what's obvious about it? 10mm is pretty much a standard size. (just a quick google shows such long standing metal minis makers like Old Glory, pendraken, ESR, etc..) but the only 12-...
LOL no never. They're 10mm (12mm to the top of the head) Not some made up nonsense that will mostly be in Siocast.
Hello, any chance these miniatures could also be offered in 12.5mm as well? For obvious reasons!! Dennis
I just picked up a box of Foot Knights and would like to know if there are any shield transfers available?
I think it depends on what you want to cover during the "Dark Ages". In terms of helms, you'd want Northern Ridge type helms (Late Roman Ridge, Vendel, most Anglo-Saxon) and Spangenhelms. In additi...
The new glaitrices digital set has some options and details that I would like to see on male gladiators that were absent from the Spartacus Revolt set. Different helmets, padded limbs, etc. ...
@Hudson Adams Thats the thing, the helmets alone make the AB already work out that way since a person collecting a historical army is more than likely going to mix in the unhelmeted hea...
@Hudson Adams so only 12 figures per box? Must have a lot of customization.
If we want it to be forward compatible with the Saxons, Franks, etc. you need enough of the right head types in the box so they can pair with the main box. Ultimately you'll be able to mix and matc...
@Hudson Adams I looked at what you preveiwed. You can sell this with just the helmet headswaps and probably should since it would still represent all the tribes, it will save space and give m...
@grahamThe Goth's have a fur cape and a sheathed sword with resting hand and pointy hand, in my book that counts as your officer (used that to add a hobgoblin warchief to my grey pile). That said ...
@Mithril2098 hopefully 20, but it is power armor and a lot of bits.
Wonder how many bodies per sprue, and how many per box.
Ok, I have no idea why they put this weird filter on the promo image, it makes my head feel like melting. Here is a clear photo:
@Brian Van De Walker . There are parts of a command set on the Goth (and late Roman set) in the sense of a standard, horn etc. There are no specific officer type bodies with better or more ornate a...
Looks pretty well and detailed honestly. I think a few details to close it's scale to 28mm like accessories, switching barrels to smaller ones and other tidbits (Night Shift on YT is pretty good at...
I just built a 1/35 Tamiya Stug IV to use it as a heavy sci fi Tankhunter. Here is it pictured next to a Ironcore Stormtrooper. I think it works as a 40k style superheavy tank
So, what's my point?I am ok with 48 bodies.I would actually hope for more: 30 bodies in tunics to soak up Goths, and 20 with integral left arms to soak up Irish.If we're working with a figure of 6 ...
04 - Persians Now, with WGA Persians we're pushing into fringe armies, alt history and outright fantasy.But they are an integral arm kit, and worth mentioning too.The box contains 40 models, 5 bod...
03 - Dark Age Irish Probably my favorite soak up kit from WGA, DA Irish has 6 human bodies plus 2 dogs per sprue. Those bodies come with integral left arms, and have fewer right hand option...
02 - Late Romans in Lorica Hamata WGA suggest to mix Goths and Late Romans to get armored Dark Age Warriors.Let's compare Late Romans with Goths.At 4 models per sprue, 24 per kit, Lorica...
01 - Goth Warriors Sprue When assembling Goth Warriors, one sprue yields 5 complete models. We have about 30 leftover bits - depending how many extra bits put on those bodies,...
Alright, might be a bit long-winded.Bear with me, there is method to my madness, and a point to my ramblings.First of all, the blurb on the pre-production page says "at least 48 bodies".I know we t...
Sorry for noticiting it so late.But I see people are still struggling with Conquistadors, so here's my take on them.I made up the diagram BEFORE getting the actual sprue, so it might be a bit off.S...
I never shot a whole army picture of my Empire guys.But this is what they looked like a couple of years ago.I added more units, and branched out too...I also mixed Conquistador and Aztec bits, to c...
I kitbashed mine from Warlord and Perry bits.WGA Conquistadors arms/heads were too large for my tastes.^_^
