I picked up some Codename Colossus STL files for my French and Germans, wish they'd release the British models in 1:48. They also have some resin models as well. https://machinationstudio.co...
@JTam if you need some information, I would be happy t help.
@William Redford I like the game a lot, maybe because I am also a big fan o Rangers of Shadow Deep and Frostgrave. There are some issues, but I solved them with some minor homebrew adaptations.It i...
@JTam How do you like the game itself? I read a review on @Grumpy Gnome 's blog and he basically stated that the book is well made and the minis nice but the rules had some issues... (like weapon r...
So, that Driver's seat poll stated that Napoleonic camp followers are coming, but as they did not win the vote wont be pushed up ahead in production. So just reading through the comments in this th...
@Brian Van De Walker For the Conquistadors? Thats a tough one. I would have much preferred 30 guys to a box as that is what I put my units at (except missle troops). But... the extra sprue was soo...
Fireforge stuff is good. I have a biggish Northman army. (4 units of 30 Infantry. 30 Spear and Shield, 30 Halbred, 30 sword and shield and 30 2 handed spear. 18 cavalry (3 units of 6) and various n...
Interesting, I hadnt noticed but since going to Edge it no longer asks me that "prove you are not a bot" thing.
@Brian Van De Walker Couldn`t agree with you more, I`ve got the spiders, and they are, in my thoughts, one of the best made Fantasy/ Si Fi made. My only call for, no clothes , no weapons to s...
@BS Kitbasher Well, just from general hints and descriptions Tolkiens drops. In the Hobbit, Tolkien gives very little description physically to goblins. Ugly looking is one, and the Great Gobl...
@William Redford@Geoff Maybury Guys, the spiders proved they could do both and it would likely still work for everything. In fact it could probably be better done now, particulaly if they kee...
@JTam It might actually be in this case, I get the feeling we are looking a broken/salvaged cargo container loot site.
Well, I might pick some sprues up to play with if I find them interesting, but when it comes to SYW conflicts I would rather see East Indian Front (which would also be great Silver Bayonet setting)...
@William Redford I was referring to Fireforge's older Deus Vault men at arms set which is probably the better set to use as model for fantasy sets (northmen didn't come around till will after Nort...
If this thread has inspired anyone to give The Silver Bayonet a go: Rule book for cheap.
I just built about 150 points (slightly more than pictured) of French for Blood and Valor. Really wish I started this project earlier since this game system looks awesome! I'm planning on painting ...
@Grumpy Gnome Could be quite close to Kryomeks... cause of the bioweapons on the right side of the picture.
Sort of, I go through the sign up "prove your not a bot" test, then it says there is something wrong with my account, but if I ignore that and just click the sign in again everything is just peachy...
@JTam God I hope not🤣, I still feel that adding the pike sprue was mistake instead of just selling it separate and adding another sprue of bodies to the main kit, though you do have point about it ...
Note: This is supposedly a bargain book: But when inspected the three "bargain" books I received last week, I couldn't find any marks on them and they appeared brand new. YMMV.
https://bookoutlet.com/products/9781472844859B/the-silver-bayonet-a-wargame-of-napoleonic-gothic-horror-the-silver-bayonet-bk-1 You can't beat that price. I paid just under three times as ...
@JTam Oh and while checking pricetags on GW site, I read a note about the fact all Xenos are excluded from the HH:AoD setting.. while I do clearly remember articles and dispatches from auld ...
I use Brave and have had no issues.
@Keith Gatchalian can I ask how you read Tolkien's Orcs as beastmen? I'm just curious where and when this idea originated. The first time I read LOTR, the unfortunate implications of his desc...
@Blutze If i`m doing a weapon like that Halbard. I use the waist plastic card bits, filed and glued on were it fits to the weapons blade. File the edge to the V shape with a micro file,...
@Geoff Maybury Hi Brother, when I said the MRAP was a boat I just meant it was f*ck huge. We had a hard time navigating mountain passes and lanes through villages in Afghanistan in una...
@JTam The MRAP, when you say boats are they both amphibious ?. YEP my farther was my best friend, and we worked hours, after school, and weekends. His retirment gift to me, was to have the jeeps&nb...
Starwars model kits are no longer available at Costco... I missed the clearance sale with quite a low pricetag -about 10$CAN a kit- thanks to our last vacations. I saw a couple of them while visiti...
@JTam ... and both kind of vehicles are coming with original boxes... so MKII an MKI -so Deimos pattern according to FW terminology 😉... So instead of 555$CAN, I should pay 360$CAN (t...
It would be something to see an MRAP next to a jeep. One is a house and the other you can throw in the bed of a full size pickup truck.
@Geoff Maybury That's an incredible story about your Father in WW2. Just a hard, slogging fight in Italy. Being able to restore a jeep together had to be an amazing experi...
Sadly I cannot recommend the Centaurs and Fauns. I picked up a single sprue because I really wanted them to be be good. Very disappointing. Too small, flimsy and limited options. I would like to se...
@JTam As you probably guessed first time Iv`ve found this posting, thanks Tam so many old memories of my time with the Military Conservation Group and our restored machines. Its great to see Halftr...
@JTam Why is that thing so big? Is she a scout machine Tam or a large APC.? SHE`S AMAZING!!
@JTam My farther was in the Coldstream Guards in Italy, and all through the War, he drove a Bren Gun carrier. and towed that 6lb gun. He built me the Airfix 1/76 scale kit. and he would have ...
@Steven StGeorges The Hearthguard are here: He must work out....
@Charles Tottington Yeah...I always thought of orcs as bestial half men when reading Tolkien. Ok to be honest I always thought of the grey goblins from the Hobbit cartoon, but as I grew older I tho...
Looking at grabbing some Italians for a kitbash but wanting to keep my custom basing consistent in style - can anyone confirm what diameter I'd need to fit the gunner & tripod? Assuming the re...
Naval Museum, Varna, Bulgaria. ZiS-5 truck and M-72 Soviet motorcycle combo:
I'd definitely snag some. I have my eye on Warlord's Colonial Militia and Woodlands Tribes minis for gaming in a Weird 1700s setting.

@Daniel Broaddus Fully agree. The Mexican War is of particular interest to me as well. I posted some pics of the Fort Bliss Museum Mexican War Display here: https://wargamesatlantic...
I definitely want FIW stuff. I already have Muskets and Tomahawks for that period and I know that Blood and Plunder is expanding into the 18th century as well. This leads me to a general observatio...
@Charles Tottington it used to when i had my old laptop and used Chrome. My new one uses microsoft edge and i havent had the issue since.
@William Ings Oh I've been there. And the latter part brings out the oof in me since I was raised a dispensationalist (that group of christians who believe in an imminant rapture and think vaccines...
@Keith Gatchalian You know I've always been thinking of Space Orcs that had more of a gorilla like posture and other gorilla like features. I mean it would provide a good deviation from Modern Warh...
Alright this is something that has been going on for a while for me and I wanted to know if anybody else was having issues signing in. Basically what happens is that whenever you try to sign in wit...
@Steven StGeorges I agree, GW prices are insane. It's only the BIG box sets where the price per mini approaches anything like sanity. You have original unpainted Rogue Trader era Rhin...
@Vitor Soares I had completely forgotten about the Portuguese involvement in Africa. (Though I shouldn't have, I had a buddy who learned Portugese to go on mission in Mozambique). Fas...
