I would hope the Knock Off's alternate heads will make them look like the Colonial Marines. They might not be showing them for a reason. The pants are awful.

@Daniel Broaddus It is great to hear the game is working well for you. I prefer Sharp Practice but that is not to say M&T is not an excellent game. The most well articulated compar...
This will hopefully work.
@Geoff Maybury I would wait for the modern operators to be released. They'll probably have historic scale grenade launchers.
@Steven StGeorges Thanks! I am thinking about using sprues for larger ladders in bigger buildings I have been planning to do. I plan to use as much of the sprues as I can, after I empty all of...
It seems the link is restricted to just group members. If anyone has miniatures from both companies, please post shots of them. I believe perry has a consistent scale (excluding the 40mm Ranges and...
@Geoff Maybury The door is still open for "real marines" or other USA death field teams, as Hudson Adams said. Hopefully the set is a success so that they do the female set that Hudson stated.. Bei...
@Grumpy Gnome I have about 20 Cadians and 2 Cadian weapon teams... from WAAAAAAAAY back in the day... I think I bought them in 2007 ish? I liked them then... but now they just look big headed and h...
@JTam these are amazing! Thanks for the lead on them. Yes I have picked up the Muskets and Tomahawks rule set. I really like it. It takes a couple of read throughs to really get it but I've played ...
@Daniel Broaddus Thinking about these rules, after a very pleasent night watching,"Pride and Prejudice and Zombies" both Eileen and myself really enjoyed the film, so these rules could be a hit.
@William Redford They came, they rant, we kicked there ugly a**. "Oh Rahs". Even persuaded me to want some, and try Deathfields. Would still have been more happy with real models, as in the "Spec O...
I was able to find this. I should think that they'll work just fine. https://m.facebook.com/groups/WargamesAtlanticLegion/permalink/1209574972854985/
I just picked up TSB and am so pumped about this ruleset. I plan on making a Spanish warband as soon as that set is available (hint hint WA) that I can also use for Muskets and Tomahawks. In the me...
@Jimil Louis There were indeed. Command could be done easily with options to replace weapons with communication gear. Scouts likewise could have reduced weapon load for additional recon gear.
@Alex Core so no colonial marine knock offs... cadian knock offs? @Jimil Louis we occasionally see@Hudson Adams hete. But not often. @Jayme Shaker wouldn't the name have to st...
Awesome guys! I love them. The old Catachan Codex was secretly one of the most powerful in 3rd edition that no one used!
I've done a few searches and can't seem to find photos with both Wargames Atlantic and Perry WW2 figures. Any two forces fine, just want to know if they look right next to eachother.
You've heard of Gaunt's Ghosts and Rico's Roughnecks? These guys will be Killians Knock-Offs. I'd like to see varied body types too. Maybe a space dwarf marine too? Can players cross teams in ...
Looking good!
Ape Suits! Ape Suits! Would love some REAL MI armor. Weren't there other types of armor in the book as well? Scouts and Command????
Does the company read these boards?
Love the MahReens! How about different body types, like fat guys or bean poles! I'm thinking Full Metal Jacket types! How about pilots, or non body armored guys?
Modern Science Fiction infantry that is American oriented would be awesome! Interesting that they went for a futuristic take and not WW2 guys. I dig it. The guns do look awful. Too big, knock ...
Will the Hobgoblins have red faces?I saw someone refer to them as Greenskins. That's only in certain worlds.
@William Redford I don't want Colonial Marine knockoffs. I want modern not Cadians sci fi infantry.
I agree, the pants are awful. They do look like baggy fishing boots, or saggy leg warmers! I guess they are going for an 80's dancer look?
@Keith Gatchalian well. Just going by the responses here, on Dakka and on Facebook, it seems that's what people like about these. The point is to make something people want to buy. So if based on t...
@William Redford Except they are neither Colonial Marines or Mi. There are other companies that do those guys, so why make knock offs?
@Keith Gatchalian I guess I am the opposite. I like them because they look like colonial marines or mobile infantry. They hit the sweet spot for nostalgia. I didn't notice the pants until I sa...
A. If you are not making 100% Colonial Marines, why make rifles that look like them? Make a generic sci fi rifle, so the figures will fit into any game or game system. I personally do not want to p...
I think having female historical-fiction/fantasy kits with a similar set up as Cannon Fodder 2 would be good. Females with arms compatible with their male counterparts is a cool concept. Having ra...
@Caratacus They are very close in height to the Kairic Acolytes, who (at least in the lore) shapeshifted their bodies to be as close to perfection as possible. They are mounted on the same bases to...
@Davey C. I agree. From a fantasy standpoint, the conquistadors are great. The only thing they lack is female options. Having a sprue with female heads in the various helmets and unhelmeted would b...
I'd go for a small set of 'fantasy scale' weapon arms. Basically, bigger swords and what have you. I would also like to see female options for say, the conquistadors or maybe a female landsknecht s...
It's definitely time for a box of small, ambiguous, reptile people. We're in a golden age of miniature agnostic skirmish games.
@Geoff Maybury That is the one.
@John Wilson Are they this The Komodo.
@Bill Thomas Well a right royal FUBAR could`nt get back to post. I always say"Real world .com gets in the way". Now i`m retiered I work more hours now than when we were at work.
@John Wilson Eh John I`m blank again, "forgot to pay the light Bill"
Here is the NPC kobold (Dornab) that is in my Kingdom of Ghouls pathfinder 1st game. He is kind of a henchman for the PC silver dragon Paladin in our Party. ZiBa, who is a female Jalpurain (think I...
@Caratacus Well... on the Facebook poll I think it was asked if people wanted them "as big as the halflings" which I think was what won the vote. So at that size, I would think they would have the ...
The possibilities that can be conjured up by this set are interesting, I must admit, given as others have pointed out, Kobolds have a variety of different forms of appearance - the mini dragon-men ...
@Geoff Maybury No. :) I like the admin part of making an army. So the head taking and counting was fun. Though I do have chronic migraines and am on meds.. so anything that triggers headaches i try...
@William Redford I'm most interested to see how you combine the Oathmark Goblins and Orcs when the latter are released (I can't believe North Star took so long to get these released after they orig...
@lauregami Try PVA glue soked tissue, for flags bannners and tents. Works a treat, I once used to it for long coats and tabards as well. I`d start with a tent, "TP" in style . Paint a tissue ...
@William Redford Did you get an head ache counting them all.😸
If Wargames Atlantic did make a kobold box, I'd like to see a crossover set like the goblins and spiders. As much as I'd like to see Drake mounts or something of that nature, maybe just add bits to...
Hey everyone, apologies for the lack of updates! I've been working on some unrelated projects. I started painting one of my Gunpla, but I tried priming it in gesso. It's a little blobby in some pla...
You can never have too many heads.
