Umm Lieutenant... what do those Pulse rifles fire?
Umm Lieutenant... what do those Pulse rifles fire?
Yeah... I like that guys... a bunch of boxes for me... 👍
@Brian Van De Walker You are right... I expressed myself wrong... (can I say that so?) Please note: I don't use Facebook or Twitter... and all the other scab. If there is a background from...
Reference: The weapons look great so far. it would be nice if this guy had a slung rifle, or the rifle in his weak hand: This is probably more pistols arms than one needs: (Pistol...
This set looks awesome. You can do Aliens, you can do near future, you can do 40K with it. Awesome. I'm not sure how you could make it more "American" and I don't know why ...
@JTam Ok, I guess that leaves me out... at least if what my wife says is accurate.
I do have questions about the rifles barrel area...is it twin barrels alongside each other with the rifle barrel on one side and the grenade launcher on the other? Or are those supports, honestly r...
The 1986 movie "The Mission." I saw this too long ago to give a decent review of it. I do remember the protagonists forego defending an incredible natural obstacle/chokepoint where ...
@William Redford I dont think it needs anything, honestly. Although I wouldn't turn up my nose at optional parts I could use on other figures. Cowboy hats for instance are useful for Rangers in pos...
@Grumpy Gnome Like I said on Dakka. I hope THIS set doesnt get more over the top american changes. This one does a good job of capturing the Aliens/Starship troopers/Cadians feel. I hope it stays t...
I've been waiting on these from the first teasers so I'm glad to see how they turned out.
@JTam Yeah. The Sprue here says Firelock LLC 2020. Wargames Atlantic did say they had worked with Firelock. So not sure...
@William Redford Great shots of the "Militia" sprues. I do notice that the sprues from the Gray For Now / Wargames Atlantic collaboration "02 Hundred Hours" sprues have "Wargames Atlantic" ...
@Estoc The "Jindaro" episode? There is NOTHING about it that's historically accurate. But it captures some of the sense of wonder, mystery, danger, and horrors the Conquis...
@Hudson Adams Based on all the reactions I have seen, as well as my own. I am betting there will be. I am not a modern or scifi gamer really, and you have me excited for this set. So that probably ...
@William Redford will be a second set if there is demand
Yeah, these look really good. I dont know what I will use them for, but I definitely want a box. I do hope we get some female heads so I can add a Vasquez to my unit.
Yes we're giving Graham a couple months to get the game out and established and then we will have 2 30-figure sets for them.
Are these going to be availabel here? I really want some of those German Shepards.
Check out the announcement and comment below! https://wargamesatlantic.com/blogs/news/ooh-rah-planning-to-get-some
@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...
