@JTam where is that top part from? It doesn't exactly seem to be accurate to the nature of the real conquistadors.

In depth video coverage on what's on the German sprue: https://youtu.be/oEYe2QAdVQM Some arms are paired and are marked on the sprue.  See the "R1" on the sprue?  It is to be used wit...

@William Redford  I had never heard of the "Mysterious Cities of Gold" cartoon.  Just read the wiki and watched the trailer.  Interesting mix of history, fantasy, and sci-fi. &...

The Love Death and Robots episode was good. Though the one with Mars bot is my favorite that season... "F you Honey Badger!"   There was an old cartoon show.. The Mysterious Cities of Gold.....

@Frank Reischmann actually, given thier fluff, the  Shadowkesh seem more like a rival particepent race or at most the hired security team/referees sent to observe the games and make sure every...

@Brian Van De Walker Yeah. I am not sure how they scale yet, but they look good. The negatives are you only get 12 to a box and of course the delay... They keep saying "we are still on track for No...

@William Redford hmm, parts to make them up for either 17th or 18th, not bad.  

@Yronimos Whateley Near Future and Cyberpunk to me is next week news to Ghost in the shell. ie: mostly realistic guns, no high space opera (ie anything where they are not astro/cosmonaut suits, wa...

I voted for Warring States Chinese infantry, Valkir, and the kobolds. The raptors if done even remotely realistically seem more like a General Accoutrements thing to me unless they have riders sinc...

After Bulldogs the Ooh-Rah Colonial Marines are my most anticipated. Love Aliens, so anything taking inspiration from it is right up my alley. Hopefully we'll get some decent bug like 'strange form...

It depends on what kind of aesthetic you want for the Lizardmen. My favorite options are to kitbash with Games Workshop Lizardmen, North Star Ghost Archipelago Tribals and WGA Aztecs. I am not supe...

Cannon Fodder 2 are top of my list as well. Then Merovingian Franks. 

Picture I took at my local zoo:

When I grabbed a bunch of Death Fields Grognards, I thought to myself, "This will be a fun, versatile army to use as I explore the wargaming hobby." But when I found out that Grognards Raptor Cava...

The work never ends! I've got some further updates! First, here's a paint job that's not finished, the halfling standard-bearer. If anyone has any suggestions for this one, please let me know. I...

The recent big screen release "Jungle Cruise." A largely entertaining film chock full of gaming inspiration. It's got back of beyond/Pulp vibes, dangerous natives, jungle cats, and a German subm...

Season 3 of Netflix's "Blood, Sex, and Robots" has an episode called "Jibaro."  In it fighting men I choose to believe are Conquistadors encounter a Siren.  Well worth a watch. ...

Conquistadors:  Men of near insane bravery with a fortitude near unimaginable to modern persons.   The purpose of this thread is to share sources of inspiration related to Conquis...

Found this brief review of Wargames Altlantic's French Infantry 1916-1940:

Firelock posted an update... They are still in track for Aug-November... They showed a sprue shot of their Militia set. These are rumored to be made by Wargames Atlantic, but no confirmation still ...

@John Wilson  Thanks!

@Yronimos Whateley Mantic upped their prices recently, I was lucky enough to buy several of the old GCPS boxes (that came with 5 sprues, metal commander, 2 mortars and 2 HMGs) at a discount as they...

@JTam I bought a few sprues in a sprue sale and just got around to using them. They suffer from very fragile legs in the sheep and pigs. They really need to come on a base, due to how thin and frag...

@John Wilson  Super Mutants... brilliant idea! 👍

@Grumpy Gnome Looking forward to those raptors, both the riden cavalry, and the wild. Note feed your raptor, least it feeds on you, late cavalry byline.

@John Wilson  Reference: I have a sprue of the Warlord farm animals I got during one of their sprue sales.  I haven't done anything with it yet though. What makes it a poor effort?&n...

Modern Operators, Brought Black Powder Red Dawn so it`s a no brainer. Iron Core Valkir, got the bird transport. Ooh Rah , can`t resist Farm Animals Eileen would be very sad, if ididn`t, and they...

Another lore update.  This time on travel sized abomination thinking machines. (Isn't that one of the robots zipping about during the Anakin Vs Kenobi lava fight?)

@John Wilson Hit the nail right on the head, look really good for anyone out the Vat, or wired, "Long live Shadowrun". So many conversion possibilities for these boys, wonder when?  

I almost thought for a moment these were the previewed kit I'm assuming are "Ooh Rah!", but yeah, these are definitely something else entirely.  Very interesting - I wonder what else (if anyth...

I'm not on all the social media for Wargames Atlantic (I'm canceled from Twitter and Facebook), so it's possible some of the fluff has gotten by me, but as near as I can tell, Wargames Atlantic are...

Well I found my Super Mutant types, they also might make good ogres in shadowpunk games.    

Cannon Fodder females, I've a load of the males so I'll be picking up a box at least. Great vault dweller types for fallout games or as hazmat teams with spaceship helmet. Cannon Fodder command an...

@Vitor Soares I really want both, but voted for the ogres as monstrous infantry is rare. Other than GW... no other monstrous infantry in plastic. 

@Chris Pryme I had the exact same problem. If I didn't need that halfling cavalry for my army, I would have voted for the Ogres.

I am looking forward to the Dark Age Army Builder sets, and the halfling cavalry. Really curious on The Franks. Will have, of course, to buy the Ogres, the Trolls and the Treemen. Not my fault...

@Yronimos Whateley I would have thought that with rules hopping to be added "sometime", a fluff of more than "Two paragraphs" might have by know arrived. I`d like it a bit like how G/W, Mantic do t...

What's about Mark Mondragons "Shadowkesh"... they were the perfect aliens behind "Death Fields"... they are big... they are bad... and we can use them for Death Fields AND for the Iron-Core setting...

I agonised a bit over the fantasy. I really want Landsknect Ogres, but then I also want the Halfling Cavalry to 'complete' my Halfling force. It was close, but the Halflings won out.

Nice!

Relevant to my interests. I'm not specifically aping Guard but couldn't resist a Commissar:

Very 40k feel to the sculpts.... which surprises me as I do not see any skulls.

Now we know what this sneak peak is from: Looks like part 49 on the above sprue.

Found this on Facebook: Facebook link Appears to be a Reptilian Overlord and WGA collaboration. There is no further information on the Facebook post. Reptilian Overlord is primarily a STL d...

The main reason that Panzer Lehr will look wrong for early war is their tunics, by the way. Which are double-breasted, same as panzer crews (which their uniform was based on). Heer tunics button up...

GEG did themselves no favours with the fairly basic painting done on their example figures, too. 

Yeah, I imagine that there's a certain IP line that very likely gets crossed if they were to officially refer to these guys as "colonial marines" or "space marines" or "starship troopers" - I've be...

The Cannon Fodder, "Ooh Rah!", and Operators sets all sound like they'll be fun sets for near-future/cyberpunk wargaming, they'll make great soldiers for skirmishes against zombies and mutant apoca...

The Fantasy Giant Spiders are also aliens, with biomechanical sci-fi options. There was a poll a few months ago where WGA more or less asked for suggestions for alien factions - any time one of WG...

@Charles Tottington  Ah, the classic butterface.
