@JTam AHAHAHAHA!!! Solid GOLD! 🤣🤣🤣
Ohh... F...k....I forgot it... 🤬 Sorry... to much easterdays... please excuse me...

@Benjamin Hayward Their "Rise of Democracy" line seems just the ticket: https://tradersgalaxy.com.au/product-category/rise-of-the-democracy/
This gentleman has all kinds of appropriate files: https://www.thingiverse.com/jabberwock/designs OK.... I didn't even know the Cobra Sea Rattler was a thing till now.... but that is bad a*s....
@William Redford Still BIG progress! Is there only 4 one handed sword arms on the sprue? That is fairly limiting.
@William Redford You're absolutely right. I ASSumed "Hammerers would have to be a seperate more heavily armored kit. But on closer inspection the "Hammerers" and "...
Sounds right-on! Trader's Galaxy has its Not Wars game, which is basically "Saturday Morning Cartoon Royal Rumble" -- Transformers, GI Joe, DinoRiders, M.A.S.K., etc., but I believe it's 6mm ...
@William Redford Those Ramriders could be quite a good alternative for GW the Hobbit Iron Dwarf army.. especially when compared to Scibor models.
@Steven StGeorges That pic is nice. I dont mind the rams, but they arent for everyone. @Blutze I like the proportions on them. But probably because I never really liked the GW dwarves. Thes...
Here is a thread I had created for it over on dakka. Fireforge Dwarf Kickstarter Ok, those size comparisons kill them for me. Way not stunty enough. And their gear is... well not excessively hol...
Ok... going down the rabbit hole. If you buy 2 boxes of Arqubusiers... and 1 cavalry box. You could make * 24x with Arquebus * 3 with double pistols (from the command sprues)&...
@William Redford I do love the Riders but not the mounts .. too close to the last Hobbit movie to my mind. And most of Giant Boars available are too Orcish, so not a chance to depict that aw...
If you get 3 boxes of hammers and 1 box of cavalry. You would get * 12x one handed axe from the infantry boxes * 12x 2 handed axe from the infantry boxes * 4x one handed axe from the...
@JTam 12 for $20 is not horrible if you compare to GW... but oathmark is 30 for $30. A box of 12 is useful if you are doing like a Frostgrave warband... but if you are making a unit of 30... then ...
I looked over the different boxes. The basic Infantry is all swords and spears.... Enough axes to outfit them all would have been nice.
Looks like they are selling the musket troops. You were talking about the prices like they were outrageous. Twelve models for 20 Euro? That's less than half what GW charges ;)
@JTam It looks like you are right on the number of female torsos... @Blutze i had actually forgotten how much i had liked these... I guess I will end up getting some after all.
I like the look. Empire Clansdwarfs for the win. Like the healthy number of pistols. Not in love with the rectangle shields but that's the easiest of fixes. Is that 4 female to...
I do like the pistol options... These would make a good outrider merc squad. Or for some @JTam Shwartzreiters.
@Blutze You should be able to make classic dwarves with them. Here are some of the pics they showed. And It looks liek there are enough helmets on the Sprue to not force you to use the hat feather...
Ah, that makes sense. Not sure why that image isn't on the shop site, but I guess the server is already crumbling under some load every two minutes anyway. Looks like there are a few things you can...
This certainly has been one of the most hardest posts ever made by my wife and myself, and I certainly couldn't have done it without Eileen. Why they refused to be picked up from the PDF, I don't k...
I have never been a big dwarf fan, but... I was very interested in this kickstarter. Here is a thread I had created for it over on dakka. Fireforge Dwarf Kickstarter While I did not really feel Dw...
You're blazing a trail here I may end up going myself, so thanks for documenting it. The base sizes are concerning, especially as a good portion of my conquistadors will be skirmishers (DoW duelist...
Blow the bugle, sound the charge. Got em.
@Blutze Yeah. When they first teased the command sprue they said they were putting legs on it, and I asked about that meaning extra figures in all the boxes that included a command sprue. They sai...
Am I losing it, or would the "rambukk" rider box allow like four additional dudes on foot in addition to the official six mounted minis? That would almost shift its price to acceptable, which had b...
@Yronimos Whateley your play style with your brother pretty much mirrors my childhood. So if you guys are the weird ones then... i am too. :) I remember Sgt. Rock. Those gusy were not fully opposab...
@JTam I've always found it interesting that they had such fun colours. I may need to find a sourcebook or two for them

Wow - great responses, thank you all very much! It's going to take me some time to catch up here! Wow, it's about time they got the RPG out there! I'm really amazed this wasn't a thi...

@William Redford "Green Shirt." LOL. Fair enough. Did the GI Joe carrier fly and get destroyed every other episode?
@JTam So... I remember in the cartoon whenever Cobra attacked you would always see basic no name Gi Joe troops. I dont know if they actually had action figures though. And there was a GI joe Base ...
