@Stephen Sutton I've been using an old Imperial Guard codex for reference and translating it into One Page Rules for future play.

Oh wow, I didn't exect that! Well, I havne't painted them yet, my lighting is bad, my potato-cam is a few generations out of date, my hands shake, and the picture is a little blurry, but hope...
@Geoff Maybury That makes sense for the Mules. Really impressed with the Command Set. Includes the other half of the Platoon Leadership, the Platoon Sergeant, that most games forget a...
That would be a cool diorama/terrain piece. Maybe one could also use the GW Knight repair terrain piece as a base: Sacristan Forgeshrine Now I believe the Leviathans are a great deal bigger ...
This page features some of the games rules and infantry cards along with stats from Pdf`s of variuos races. Note the infantry card center.
@JTam I loved the fact that the mules, intfantry were all conected by laser designators and mules could be programed to follow the brain mule, or a poor foot sloger.
@Yronimos Whateley please as Tam asked can we see some piictures.
Guys can`t you get some of the gaint insects from Mars Attacks and make your own riders on beast and foot?
Any thoughts on whether the Ash Waste Nomads are actually Eldar? In the limited available fluff there's those who think their not human. And in the first trailer they move inhumanely fa...
@JTam Yes mate being of Scotiish origin, nice miniatures, very well priced over here, even selling seperaaaaaaaaaaaat spruuurs. Now ithink available over the pond with you, I like them the robots,...
I can not see me getting these at full retail unless it was as a gift for a special occasion.... but GW is admittedly charging less than I expected.
@H M That is a great idea with the three levels of progression on a single sprue.
Sign me up for Trojan, Mycenaenas and Sea Peoples! But some others I would love to see are Assyrians and -perhaps controversally- Sumerians.
Even at $254 thats still more than I value my interest level at. Though, I may eventually pick up the Ash gang and bugs. May... I Think I may just look in to buying some Tusken Raiders on Etsy as t...
@Hudson Adams I love, love, love the idea of a three body pack - as it could give the progression from low-medium-high level characters. If you go down that road, please make a decent barbarian/gl...
@Steven StGeorges I'd sooner turn them into Gondorians myself! That saif, is late Roman cavalry is on the horizon I very, very much hope that some horsemen suitable to be Western Roman cat...
@Mithril2098 I'm interested to know what people think about unit composition. Should we be building a more true to life army with mixed weapons in generalist units (multiple rifles with a s...
@Grumpy Gnome @William Redford @Steven StGeorges From Spikey Bits: See! You can save a $100.00 by spending $300.00! You can find the box set on Ebay right now for $254 shipped.&nbs...
A combination of a Leviathen and this Kit, plus some Panzer Lear conversions, along with welders, lights, etc, and a few tents. It will make for a great scene on any gaming table.. I can get ...
I`m posting this here instead of Iron Core, as if we never see the release of Leviathens, I probabally won`t go for it. Which would be a shame as I so much want to convert this when it arrives latt...
@Grumpy Gnome Cloaks are harder to get the fit right with. But I'd not object to one of those.
Interesting to see so much vocal support for shoulder pads. Is there similar interest for sprues of cloaks? I know there was a time I was searching for cloaks for some kitbashing and cloaks could ...
Roaring 20's and Depression era are popular RPG settings, starting with Call of Cthulhu, but there's also general Pulp gaming and Gangsters. Fashions work forward and back a bit, especially for mal...
The original squat artist had a line of his own space dwarves for a while and they were pretty fun:http://www.olleysarmies.co.uk/scrunts.html
@JTam I am just supersensitive to weapon handling safety after seeing too many close calls personally and hearing/reading too many horror stories. To be honest I feel like tv and movie produc...
Definitely interested in shoulder pads sprue, brilliant idea indeed.
Another Sunday. My Bear hasnt arrived yet. But My Biddicca chariot did... I kind of wanted to do something else other than conquistadors this weekend, so what I did is related but different enough ...
@Grumpy Gnome Took a look at a available 28mm Soviet Naval Infantry last night. They are all metal and 95% are holding a weapon with both hands. Would be a lot of work to zombify...
That looks very good... I think I must buy a few boxes of Stargrave Troopers... perfect for kitbash to my Raumjaeger infantry...
@Yronimos Whateley All ideas was right... 👍 And same as JTan, pictures were good... WA should bring Mark in the Legion Forum... 🙏
@Yronimos Whateley Great finds. A lot of those Reaper miniatures really fit the bill. The Chronoscope line has a lot of treasure. It was strangely a Reaper Chronosco...
@Benjamin Hayward Good to hear. I only saw the first one. And yes, I thought it was big and action packed and a little goofy: I.E. a great live action version of the cartoon.&nb...
@Grumpy Gnome I missed the finger on the trigger on the poster. 1. It's a small image on a phone. 2. I think I just don't notice/expect anything else from Hollywood.&...
@JTam: G.I. Joe: Retaliation was actually pretty dang fun. It had some great action, it was silly, the plot was ridiculous - in other words, it was a pitch-perfect adaptation of the cartoon!&...
@Yronimos Whateley Would it be possible to post pics of the Eisenkern with AKs at some point? I would love to see more Eisenkern kit bashes posted. It's super interesting ...
A shame about the "scale creep" up to 40mm for the hero/villain characters in that board game - the minis do look great! I can tolerate a little difference of scale, but there's a certain poi...
I don't collect or game with Warhammer stuff, but I've bought the occasional box of them, and have somehow accumulated a handful of ragged banners from Warhammer and similar kits - it's one of thos...
Agreed that there's not much that I know of that would be an exact match, but yeah, if I were to try to proxy some, the Eisenkern with different heads wouldn't be a very bad match for some heavily-...
I've got a little thread somewhere in which I've been talking about adapting the Eisenkerne guys into not-Cobra Troopers for a sort of Joes-vs-Cobra skirmish game. I've got them assembled wit...
I'll give it a chance - I've gotten kinda pessimistic over the years, but every now and then I discover some real treats in modern fantasy, horror, and sci-fi. The original movie was great fu...
35mm is increasingly the size of boardgame minis it seems. The concepts were good but the size and execution were not for me. Naval Infantry... cool! As for the Dakkadakka thread, there wer...
@Grumpy Gnome I went back and forth on the sculpts. I certainly like the subjects a lot... not so much the execution. But when I read they were 35mm or some such it made it easy ...
@Grumpy Gnome I couldn't read all that. I was getting stupider by the post and I don't have enough brain cells left for that. Is this for real?: Someone is either a master troll or...
@JTam ... I was referring to his trigger finger discipline, or rather the lack of it. That kind of thing spoils so many pictures for me. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2002/apr/10/afg...
@JTam I think the KS shows yet again that there is a market for the genre. I like that it has zombies from both armies and the living team up against the dead. The sculpts are not real...
