@Red Bee do you think we need to do more or do you agree with what I said above?

@Geoff Maybury Yeah, franchise works can be a mixed bag, though those rules do sound like something I might pick up.
Without chariots the question is moot. I will not be buying either if chariots are unavailable as you cannot field an Egyptian army without them!
They do look like Trench Fighters. A source of possible inspiration is Dan Abnett's "Straight Silver". Abnett is a superlative writer and the entire Gaunt's series is first rate. Straight...
@rowbot gorrillaman These guys look great. Thanks for sharing them. Must have been a lot of work but it paid off. @Yronimos Whateley I think you just partially described ...
It be cool if you could kit bash what's known as a "Khyber Pass" AK. Which is basically an AK47/AKM (chambered in 7.62x39) with an AK74 triangle folder added on. (No AKMs were ever f...
I'm all for Pride support. The majority of folks I game with are queer, due to my social circles, and it's pretty important to show support where we can.
@Yronimos Whateley Given all the bug related polls they had this week on the FB group its Bugs. we don't even need to think about this hard.
The greatest source book of all time:
@Yronimos Whateley as a Battletech fan I would love to see some gyrojet inspired weapons. I almost always go Gyroslug when I'm arming my RPG or Battletroops characters
@Mark Dewis To be honest the thing I am really looking forward to in the historical lines is Warring States Chinese. Probably one of the most important times and places in world history and it is ...
I actually made a "modern Afgahn" using a Dragon's 1/35 scale AK family gun and some old open hand bolt action arms on a WA, doesn't look too bad. so there are other sources for modern guns, though...

@Caratacus Good points. I'm on team chariot too. Reference: Well they're pretty good for 40K too. They look more like midhammer 40K Cadians than current Cadians do.
I may be interested in what periods you game/ collect but I am not interested in nor care what you do with your genitals. Keep this forum for the hobby not self interest groups or politics. Fully e...
"I understand that most wargamers are straight and many are homophobic..." I'm all for "live and let live," but is it necessary to stick a preemptive thumb in the eye of the people you're asking t...
Oh, that's a great find there, another one that's totally new to me! Lots of great stuff there, but for some reason, the "Dr. Mindetwist" mad scientist character is my favorite:
Nice work - I love the green uniforms, the palette of colours work together really nicely here, and the kitbashing looks great! I'm getting a really grimy post-apocaluyptic vibe from these guys - ...
What do you get when you mix a box of grognards , WW1 french , cannon fodder and a lot of free time ? THE FIRST WAVE ! GLORY TO THE FIRST MAN TO DIE ! ...
Another Ooh Rah sneak-peek! And... This week, we apparently have a sneak-peek of a modern or near-future marine on the right, with... a mystery on the left? Looks organic, maybe a...
@JTam They were the only figures of GW that we built up a fifty or so section if we were ever invited on to the clubs night board. No army, no invite, and it was a hell of a lovely board . 10x8 rol...
Well this settles quite a bit of debate: The magazine is clearly for the grenade launcher. The generous body of the weapon might have a couple hundred rounds on board. The i...
I dont like politics or religion generally when looking at my toy soldiers. But... a company showing support does not tick that box for me. I would support a company stating that they support a gr...
An important part of growing up is realising that you aren't entitled to attention and praise. Something to think about perhaps.
@Benjamin Hayward I knew it was going to be a great movie when a mid 20's white female I met at the airport was talking about how awesome it was and how she wanted to see it again. &nbs...
Hi Estoc - nothing against pride month for sure! We support all our LGBTQIA family, friends, customers, and everyone else out there. We just haven't gotten into posting about every month celebratio...
Oh, good catch on the Starship Troopers' rifles, @Grumpy Gnome - I'd forgotten what those looked like! Starship Troopers Aliens The rifles for the Ooh Rah guys are not an exact m...
I just found out Traders Galaxy has a game and miniatures line that is very obviously GI Joe: Rise of the Democracy
I am all for a public Pride display to show support. I was in fact unaware June is Pride Month.
There was absolutely no details beside the little blurb I included in the original blurb. It's well timed though. The Catachans have a nice command set, and some great looking character mini...
I think with historical plastics you get in an interesting situation where for the price of conversion heads you can probably just get complete (appropriate/dedicated) figures for the same or not m...
Hello all, I eagerly await WA's Napoleonic Spaniards to play in Studio Tomahawk's Muskets and Bayonets. I was thinking in the meantime of picking up some of the British Riflemen and was wond...
I will start Imperial Guard again if these come out any time soon and depending on their price. Did RO mention anything as to a release date?
Now, June is a rather ordinary month to most of you. What happens in June? What does this title mean? Now, as the few enlightened of you will possibly know: June is Pride Month. Despite this, the ...
@JTam it just goes to show what a fantastic movie this is, that even people who don't care for the original like it. I wasn't expecting to hate Maverick, but I didn't have super-high expectat...
Well guys, we all agree, they are really stunning, and we can hardly wait, because we want them, and to be totally honest,"We want them NOW"!!!"👌
@Estoc Scource book, usually is a book that relates to the games world, and gives you additional information, to give the game more detail, The rules give a little world enviroment, etc, but the ma...
Arms can be amputated ;) But in this case, I am talking about cutting the hands/weapons from another kit and swapping those onto lizard arms. Also, the Lizard left arms can hold shields from othe...
@Yronimos Whateley I quite agree on the tablet. And I also only intend to get a single box for kitbashing bits.
That looks like classic Hammer Horror fun!
@Yronimos Whateley From the start actually, and they seemed very serious about it back then.
Might as well try to revive this seeing as I've been trying to have Spacesnaz be considered for a kit. I'd love to see a post-soviet/Early Federation era aesthetic with Sfera style or Altyn inspire...
I think some DF guys inspired by Yugoslav troops would be neat. Laser SKS's and M70's would be neat. Maybe helmets with the big, foliage covers on them as well.
Thanks for the kind comments. These were made well before Perry or WGA did their Afghan kits - if I add to the group, I'll use those.
@Caratacus I take your point regading Warlord covering WW2, but they're not especially focussed elswhere in the 20th C. Even their taking over Wargame Factory's Apocalypse Survivor line and r...
@Danforth Laertes - The reason rules get mentioned is that Wargames Atlantic did mention the possibility of dipping their toes into writing some wargames rule earlier in the year, or late las...
I saw it when I was really young, back in the '70s or '80s, and then saw it again several years ago to make sure it really exists! I was mesmerized by it as a kid - loved the monsters and shi...
@Yronimos Whateley @William Redford Nice flare gun attack to the midsection.
@Yronimos Whateley it's available on Roku in the "Adventure flix" channel. 2.5 hours. I added it. It looks... well it's a Hammer film. I'm gonna give it a try this weekend.
