Almost every book in the Osprey "Raid" series provides inspirations for scenarios for this game. https://ospreypublishing.com/store/military-history/series-books/raid You could recreate these wit...
@Blutze Despite living in Germany for many years now my German is still abysmal, especially my spelling. Sorry about that. The correct spelling is of course Schützenschnur, thanks for th...
@Grumpy Gnome Frankly don't know why, WH40k is so grimedrip its ranges far beyond mere satire into Judge Dredd and One Punchman land, comical squats would have fit in fine. @Caratacus...
GW just came out with this watery ghoul character: I don't follow AOS very closely (vowed never to play/buy anything AOS after GW killed the Old World) but this guy looks pretty sweet.
I'm relatively ignorant of the genera of war gaming, but does any one make minis based off the Haitian revolution?
@Charles Tottington Was reminded of your project and its French in Egypt https://www.facebook.com/groups/460868411872277/permalink/661867268439056/?app=fbl
@Miyuso That looks awesome! I'm impressed. Is there a game you will use the bunnies for?
@Steven StGeorges I Googled that, and it's a neat range. But I believe this is a Reaper product??
@JTam & @Grumpy Gnome Look more like Crooked Dice's Lurkers from the Deep range
@Grumpy Gnome That's a great story/insight into serving with British forces. I remember thinking the L85 was super "high speed" when I was a youngster. Seemed really modern and f...
"Mais pas d'oignons aux Autrichiens," "Non pas d'oignons, non pas d'oignons."
@Blutze 100% agree with this. 100% disagree with this. 1. Those are pretty normal females in pretty normal poses above. 2. There is no nefarious plan by the IDF to have s...
@BS Kitbasher Just check that post ... could give you some hints and tips http://roebeast.blogspot.com/2012/10/trash-bashing-sci-fi-vehicle-from-start_19.html post is divided in 3 parts.&...
@Grumpy Gnome I look at it another way. The AR was so innovative when introduced it's been near impossible to improve upon in 66 years. Inline stock, space age light weig...
@Grumpy Gnome The M4 is not inherently less accurate than the M16A2. The reduced site radius (roughly the same as the maligned AK) makes it less accurate in actual use than the M16A2...
*Schnur. Please don't turn this into another Landsknecht. The G36 is indeed a bit of a stack - piston system, mounting hooks, 90s optics, effectively piggybacked, all of it with luxurious margins,...
Not sure on the trigger finger. I have noted some armies don't train their Soldiers to have their trigger finger extended along the frame, but instead to grip the pistol grip with all fingers...

While I'm happy for the Oldhammer fans, this release doesn't do much for me. Not only do I prefer the more distinctive "squats" made by Wargames Atlantic and Mantic, but I wouldn't buy the GW...
@Steven StGeorges Let me reiterate... “I did not say comical was bad. Just that the new model looks less comical than previous Squats.” Of course Rogue Trader was more openly sati...
@JTam ..oh and could be quite a project for our beloved Dr Mathias 😁
@Caratacus So if the Squat Strikes Back, there is still hope for all of us.... 😁 -a sentence my last surviving and unpainted squat vintage minis would like .. if they could express themselv...
@Steven StGeorges as @JTam has correctly pointed out, GW have definitely confirmed that their new Squats are going to be a full faction. Note that in the Jervis Johnson article they also stated th...
I used to have a monthly subscription for White Dwarf back in the days when Warhammer Fantasy existed and 40K wasn't a bloatfest in 5th and 6th Edition, now I only get it if it heavily relates to a...
@JTam 😱 Mea culpa, maxime culpa I should have check on WCommunity before posting... So I've got to reconsider my point of view... will wait till I see Squat Landspeeders to fill Rapid...
@Steven StGeorges That Oldhammer blog is awesome. Thank You. Excellent: This is some dedication:
@Steven StGeorges (From the OP first link.) Now GW's definition of "full faction" might differ from yours or mine...... But it sounds positive.
@JTam Indeed ... quite a project and quite a brilliant idea 🤣
@Grumpy Gnome Satirical and Comical were not part of Rogue Trader/V1.5/early V2 motto back to the Day? I like Perry' Squats as said in another post, but less fan of trikes and bikers, same f...
@Kein Fisher by all means post your rules (or at least a link to them here)! This community appears to be a great source of potential playtesters, might as well try and get as many as possible to h...
I'm most pleased to see the Squats return in an official format - I like the Einherjar models, but I'm incredibly pleased to see GW have finally decided to make the Space Dwarfs official again, and...
Great work! Your troops look brilliant. Round bases and square movement trays for the win! 👏🏻
@JTam Is that Reaper? Maybe best to ask on the Reaper forum. I do not recognize it.https://forum.reapermini.com
I did not say comical was bad. Just that the new model looks less comical than previous Squats.
@JTam In that last photo, is that German soldier‘s booger hook on the bang switch? Perhaps the G36C might have felt less like a brick? But maybe not. Congrats on the Schutz...
@William Redford Awesome work! These guys are looking great.
Yet more SciFi Old West:
Before I do post, is it ok if I post links that leads to my rules and material for my game?
@Yronimos Whateley @Blutze I mucked about with the G36 a couple times in Germany and fired it to earn a Schutzensnere. I wasn't much impressed. Inferior to the M4 in every metri...
@Grumpy Gnome Some brit bikers are going to be glad about... 🤣 Seriously, the 80s style is priceless -especially the trikes or the squat assault soldier on hoverboard -quite a rare model- b...

Quite a simple and brilliant conversion.... Thanks for sharing 👍
LOL and awesome. This would be the best Inquisitorial warband of all time.
Gut, Besser, WTF
Does anyone know if this mini got made? Does it have a name?
What was the GW hobby magazine back in the day? Not White Dwarf. It was thinner and mostly black and white. Had a lot of private contributors writing articles? Anyway, I remember...
