Whilst still having a little time before I cook tonights meal, Civilians in whole would be nice if the set had, Male, Female, Children, in all types of poses, even sitting down ( car drivers). The ...
@JTam Gota think that the quote is more akin to a film or book. The civilians running from the zombies or aliens and is a way of simplifing the fighting man, and the non combatant. I actually want...
Demon worshiping cultists/renegade militia. Pls and thank ;)
@William Redford Winning! Is that helmet roughly the right size? You got Halflings vs. GW heroic so it's hard to say without actually comparing.
Unarmed civilians made me think of operation last train and similar where the games are focused on saving civilians from aliens (or zombies, mythical creatures etc). I never made any connection to ...
I went with the armed civillians for stuff like partisians and modern styled fraeteris militia. And also power armor and all varieties of alien, I actually voted for a lot of stuff that I forgot th...
@lauregami Thats is part of the reason why I voted Yakuza and skipped all the "civilians", but mostly I figured having a cellphone pose arm and a couple of free hand arms and your done with unarme...
@JTam guess what I found in my bits box! :)
@JTam "German Nun Paratroops of course" Sorry couldn`t resist.
@Eric Howanietz Oh, I think those are macedonian helmets, which are actually a Hellinist Western thing they exported everywhere. Also no offense but I am tired of stolen scrap gear goblinoids, besi...
I was working on a Gripping Beast Late Roman yesterday and noticed it had leg wraps with bows like the WGA sneak peek leg wraps.
@Yronimos Whateley The front handgrip, drum or box magazine, and cooling fins designate the original models c.1921-42. The military adopted this pattern in 1928 as the M1928A1, with the simp...
@Charles Tottington link to the Google doc? Here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeip3MrzjJPjJRYdxEGFy4MIcY7cbNM9wJ6-cqOOQhuIRWz4g/viewform?fbzx=-7964966999195317727...
@William Redford That's already looking pretty boss. @Blutze Great ideas. It's a shame there isn't a zillion of these sprues floating around everywhere anymore: The neck...
Hmm. IDK. Maybe. Are the lizards stable by virtue of tail?
Fiddly as they are, they are the cheapest artillery on the market There's a cannon without any crew in Black Scorpion's pirate line that sells for 5.5€. Missing all the crew and terrain bit...
Having only looked at the images on my local store's website, I think the shieldmaidens are supposed to be female dwarves. May end up talking a greenskin coworker into getting the bolt thrower and...
Dunno if I'd wanna buy two kits to build a single unit, and unfeathered shieldless mazticans are also kinda unlikely to show up in my campaign. But then again, this might still be cheaper than GW s...
Wargames Atlantic already makes medium-sized goblinoids though. I'll be painting mine in orange-brown-yellow-something as hobgoblins for sure. Granted, D&D 3.x is less specific about the gear, ...
Not sure if this is a fantasy perspective or a DM perspective, but I didn't have an immediately negative reaction to scared/fleeing civilians. Dark elves slaughtering recently captured slaves to de...
I hoped to use the plastic tubes that come as protection on decent paintbrushes for something, but at least this very clear one I tried didn't get glued with butyl acetate and instead got permanent...
A plume? A big one, like on the 6th edition empire knights or the current Perry men at arms. Alternatively, whatever big joustey crest belongs on a great helm... except a cludgy rural imitation of ...
@JTam Demigryphs can have full command. I am probably not going to do my bear unit after all though, as I dont think I will have shelf space... and you reminded me that I am only allowed one shelf ...
I almost forgot! Don't forget those gnome looking helmets or hats with hobgoblins. Makes them look all threatening and phalic. The Samari helms are cool but this gnome looking thing is still...
I wanted to have a halfling general on a griffin. I got a wizkids griffon (it was cheap) and have been wanting to get some goblins to use the mount legs. Well I got a sprue (finally, had been consi...
Hobgoblins really do need some nice recurve horse bows, kris knives, and simitars. I do vibe with the Mongolian theme. One of the tics in my personal Fantasy lore is that Hobgoblins are the only Gr...
I dont really have a lot to add to this. I think mashing cultures is always interesting and would help people get a feel (imagined) for the culture of the Hobgoblins. Though I am sure there are som...
@lauregami If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them... maybe you can hire the A-te... err Mustafarian flea riders. These were the pre-painted starwars figure...
@lauregami I'ed rather have Three Wheeled Sail Skiffs or Dragon Knight Raptors then, Beetle Mounts.
@Benjamin Hayward I'd love a civillian box for modern, fantasy, and sci-fi, along with post apopcalypse.
@BS Kitbasher Link please since I can't access it from either Microsoft Edge or Firefox.
So in another thread hobgoblins got brought and I think they deserve there own thread. So lets start, now among the suggestions made where them Japanese (D&D style) or Mongolian (WFB), but why...
@Michael Scott I am afraid Wargames Factory tried, and Warlord relased it and it was basically a miss and miss idea. First of all despite the appearance there are differences in kit. Second t...
instead of having multiple boxes for Modern Tier 1 Operators, why not have a single box with multiple options for heads / arms / weapons but leave torsos generic, can always add options into the bo...
I personally wouldn't mind civilians, but I don't know how well an entire box would sell. For me, they'd be objectives: captives that need rescuing, or I could run missions akin to the "terror" mis...
I don't see anything wrong with unarmed survivors in say... a zombie game or alien invasion. I get people are touchy about it the closer we get to modern time. But we see them in film, so why not ...
@BS Kitbasher I think you could definitely make a "civilian" kit - WA already has the French partisans and such along those lines already - without the "terrified" part. Battle scars/damage can be...
I think this is a great idea and would be a fun kitbashing experiment. The hooded/cultist gas mask heads from Anvil Industries I think could make a convincing looking Ash Wastes-type space nomad, w...
@JTam I mostly agree with you, especially in the context of modern conflicts. There will always be gamers who want to "add flavor" to their "extremely accurate" Waffen SS army, and I'm ...
It's a shame every company has a different idea of what a halfling should look like. TTCombat's are a lot of fun, but they are rolly-poly cartoons compared to WGA's halflings. Mantic ma...
I had to log into Google, and it took me to a Google docs version of it.
Is the poll still up because I can't acess it.
I mostly clicked on the gangsters and insurgents. A modern military kit would be great, but only really useful for building modern or near-future military/mercenary minis. Insurgents a...
@Steven StGeorges They have a bunch of male halflings, but the females are pretty much what i posted. I was part of their desert elves kickstarter. Female desert elves that were sort of egyptian da...
@GreenScorpion I am talking about that Meng kit not the 1/100 one... As seen on Meng website.. HERE Quite a lovely detailed model, scalewise with GW minis and vehicles... and way ...
Made another dollar tree run. Got 2 cool robot/mech/power armor guys, an alien monster guy, and 2 packs of spiders. The spiders are my favorite...
@William Redford Halfing Shieldmaiden walrus cavalry... whatelse?
I think models of civilians in a combat zone, behaving as civilians commonly do... as victims... is a potentially contentious set but it depends a lot on how it is used. It is the same risk of any ...
I'm pretty live and let live kind of guy. I see plenty of kits and kit ideas that I'm not interested in and or don't like. And I move on and don't comment because doubtless this ...
