@Grumpy Gnome I dont mind the male faces. Though the Oathmark Human soldiers kind of look goofy.
I like many of the faces on the North Star Frostgrave/Stargrave/Oathmark sets.
@Geoff Maybury The Boyes rifle is a good analogy/source of inspiration too. I just went with the Soviet equivalent as they were by far the biggest (And probably longest) users of the ...
@JTam The Broken? No, I have looked a couple times. They have some neat robots I am kind of interested in. So, speaking of which.. I was living in Indonesia when President Suharto w...
@JTam I have heard good things about the Maelstroms Edge minis, just have not managed to find any second hand yet here in Germany. I wish I had grabbed some before Brexit.
@John Wilson Not bad..... Thank You for the tip....
@JTam Thats true... back in the day that was a lot. Now, its like... half a tank of gas...
Anyone have experience with these miniatures? They look suitably Waste Nomady.... https://www.maelstromsedge.com/medge/store.jsp?p
Two hundred ninety dollars is a CHUNK O Money. Maybe if it goes for $250 from the online stores I can kind of rationalize it. The GW big boxes are the only time their prices appr...
@Steven StGeorges Indeed. Though I am still looking for the Red Harvest Barbarians. When they announced that set, EVERYONE complained about how bad (or not human) the barbarians looked... So I figu...
@Grumpy Gnome @William Redford Second or even third hand my friends... A lot of buyers are going to quit -as usual- after a few weeks, so to sell their minis (primed or painted) asap.
@Grumpy Gnome saw this price rumor on Dakka. Necromunda Ash Wastes €225 £180 $290* Dustback Helamite Riders €37 £28 $47 Tactic Cards €13.25 £11 $16.50 Orlock ...
@H M yeah, i dont do many scifi games, or at least not that often... hopefully the female cannon fodder are succesful so WA makes some more female sets.
@William Redford I would get them for that purpose, but sadly I have no use for the bodies and guns. I'm hopeful that a "tribal woman" set that I pitched in one thread or another a while back...
The Panzerjagers are something of a missed opportunity since the don't have the assault rifle/gl shown in the art work. I'd have taken the opportunity to give more of a variant to the Stormtroopers...
Thank you my friend your scource of Knoledge never lets me down amazing insights, I too was thinking along the lines ofthe british Boyes, not having a total Kill, more a cripple wound. I love the E...
GW has surprised me by making something I like. Too bad that I expect the price to be prohibitive. I have already started trying to convince Mrs. GG...
The GW Ash Waste Nomads are about to go on preorder:
$20 for a single mini? Pass. She's cool looking, just way overpriced. The detail is decent, but nothing amazing. I guess they're banking on the D&D brand name to justif...
@Benjamin Hayward "Dungeon Fodder," I like it! Potentially you could eventually release a combo sprue small dungeon in a box set. This was William Ings' idea here: https...
Even more Germany: Bunch of USGI halftracks front. Bunch of USGI halftracks, back. Winch. Roller. Driver's position. Halftrack versus thin skin HMMWV comparison. https://en.wik...
Was just about to chime in about Reaper's kobolds. My brother just bought a bunch and they look pretty great. That said, if WGA put out a mutli-part kit for kobolds, they could put them, the gobli...
To be fair, I love the Frostgrave kits, but most of their heads - male and female - are kinda fugly. That's true of pretty much all the North Star stuff: awesome kits chock-full of sweet...
Mrs, GG and I have enjoyed the Space Force TV series... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bdpYpulGCKc ... but yeah, that uniform looks a bit off to me. I seem to recall hearing the design was inspi...
@H M I agree with you on the heads in the female soldiers box. The heads in the female wizards box are a bit better. I am excited for Wargames Atlantic's cannon fodder 2 set... I plan on using...
I strongly agree with the gap in female figures - I'd love to see some more out there, as even just one or two multi parts kits would vastly increase the range of possibilities out there. Right now...
Well, I wanted to wait until she was finished to post, but... more yard work and my hands (arms) have developed the muscle strain shakes... so... Here she is with a wargames atlantic body. First t...
@William Redford Nicely done. Really creative conversion. Thanks for your notes.
@Grumpy Gnome Think too far forward and you end up with this ;) (Actual Space Force dress uniforms. Not a joke.) (Interestingly I was talking with a Space Force E9 [Super Space Mas...
I think this is a fantastic idea. The different ritualized gladiator types and matchings is fascinating. There are a few rule sets out there for gladiatorial combat. The mi...
A more modern source of inspiration might be the XM25. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/XM25_CDTE Cliff notes: The Army started by developing the XM29. Which was a smart round launcher...
@JTam Thanks for the info and correction brother. Fascinating stuff! As for the dress browns... Sharp uniform for sure, but I wish the US military would look forward rather than look back. I...
So I recently got the Panzerjager kit and really like it...... minus the fact none of their equipment looks adequate to actually kill a tank. Maybe in an accessory or command sprue/kit ...
Would Mr. Mondragon himself be able to help? Any way of getting a hold of him?
Whilst enjoying the Panzerjager of Wargames Atlantic my thoughts turned to the real conflict in Ukrain and the galent troops who are attacking the Soviets wiith such success. Looking at the s...
@Frank Reischmann Don`t Know any real thing about Mark except that you can see from his designs and PDF Historys he is very talented. My thoughts and they are based 1, my age 67, 2, being around th...
@JTam She is a malifaux plastic mini (I think she was one of the old show girls). The wheel chair was a hero clix (I think Professor x.) I cut the malifaux mini up and arranged it to look like she ...
I was recently curious about roman gladiator minis. Looking around, I didn't see many options. Crusader (I think) had some, but they were metal and the styling was a too old-school for me, personal...
@Geoff Maybury Thanks Brother. You as well!
@William Redford Can you tell us more about the tech girl?
Found some more size comparisons online. Size looks right to me. http://wargameterrain.blogspot.com/2022/04/fireforge-games-new-fantasy-stone.html?m=1
When these were announced, I was excited. When I saw the price, I thought, "Wow, how many are in the box?" Neat looking minis, not going to touch them at those prices.
The forum was the only place that I picked up things, and I really wish I`d paid more attention to were I put the back up disks from our old computer. Allthough one man Mark, did exellent works lik...
@JTam Nice work Tam really enjoyed it, take care all," Happy Easter". Geoff
Fun fact: The Army is bringing back the WW2 dress uniform. https://www.marlowwhite.com/pinks-and-greens-information/ I'm actually excited about the new uniform. The last time we wer...
Infantrymen, bomber crews, submarine crews.... that's were the dying happened. In the clip, that's actually the bombardier and navigator working the cheek guns. I only know that as I've seen...
Was his blog the only place that it was posted? I went looking around on the Wayback Machine and couldn't seem to find anything lore-wise. Anywhere else to try digging?
I find these modular DnD mini's far too expensive for what they offer. For the same money, you could buy a box of Frostgrave wizards and make up to 8 mages/sorcerers/warlocks and more. Or buy a cou...
As a kid I thought it would have been cool to be a turret gunner on a B17. As an old veteran I am still surprised to know my survival chances would have been higher in the infantry. That one...
