Mark did Pdf`s, and other forms of weapon explenations, for all his work sadly, my brain can`t remember it all. Which is why I wish to rebuild the "Lore", one of the things that I "Half" remember, ...
More supplemental metal minis: Looks pretty good.
@Benjamin Hayward Good question, most strickly RPG players/GMs seem to prefer prepaints, and the D&D brand is probably why its costs too much.
@Brian Van De Walker well we don't NEED IT... but... ok.,, I guess we don't... :(
Actually SafeHaven Games had a KS for a ruleset, miniatures, and supposedly even a cool arena model. Tragically it didn't launch due to lack of apparent interest. That said as a subject, it would ...
for what it's worth, I think the heads/faces on Wizards 1 and 2 (so male and female) as well as the male knights are fantastic. - The knight's set even has one of my favorite head bits currently ou...
Definitely something that should be on any SF booster sprue. that AND LEFT HANDED PISTOL OPTIONS!!! (With corresponding non-weapon right hand ones). (edit) Actually, I see that North Star have don...
@William Redford Warcry's models are quite rare I may confess. Only seeing some for a few hours before they just disappear in smoke... to reappear on ebay or whatever-buy-me.com. Some folks are mak...
One hack I used to do was to snip the cotton bud ends off used cotton wool earbud sticks, leaving about 5cm of perfectly good ~3mm polystyrene tube. Literally thousands of uses. And helping to keep...
I have not seen it yet but the trailers look good.
Update: https://coffeeordie.com/tom-hanks-wwii-sequels/ Did anyone see "Greyhound"?
@William Redford 35? Ah, shame. I think at this point 32mm can work.... but 35mm is a bridge too far.
@JTam These are nice. But 35mm. I had looked at these back in the day... but felt they were too big. They are lovely though
These are the beautiful if a little pricey resin miniatures (assuming resin) I was thinking of: https://arenarex.com/ They have some free rules to download too: https://arenarex.com/page...
@Grumpy Gnome I dont mind the male faces. Though the Oathmark Human soldiers kind of look goofy.
I like many of the faces on the North Star Frostgrave/Stargrave/Oathmark sets.
@Geoff Maybury The Boyes rifle is a good analogy/source of inspiration too. I just went with the Soviet equivalent as they were by far the biggest (And probably longest) users of the ...
@JTam The Broken? No, I have looked a couple times. They have some neat robots I am kind of interested in. So, speaking of which.. I was living in Indonesia when President Suharto w...
@JTam I have heard good things about the Maelstroms Edge minis, just have not managed to find any second hand yet here in Germany. I wish I had grabbed some before Brexit.
@John Wilson Not bad..... Thank You for the tip....
@JTam Thats true... back in the day that was a lot. Now, its like... half a tank of gas...
Anyone have experience with these miniatures? They look suitably Waste Nomady.... https://www.maelstromsedge.com/medge/store.jsp?p
Two hundred ninety dollars is a CHUNK O Money. Maybe if it goes for $250 from the online stores I can kind of rationalize it. The GW big boxes are the only time their prices appr...
@Steven StGeorges Indeed. Though I am still looking for the Red Harvest Barbarians. When they announced that set, EVERYONE complained about how bad (or not human) the barbarians looked... So I figu...
@Grumpy Gnome @William Redford Second or even third hand my friends... A lot of buyers are going to quit -as usual- after a few weeks, so to sell their minis (primed or painted) asap.
@Grumpy Gnome saw this price rumor on Dakka. Necromunda Ash Wastes €225 £180 $290* Dustback Helamite Riders €37 £28 $47 Tactic Cards €13.25 £11 $16.50 Orlock ...
@H M yeah, i dont do many scifi games, or at least not that often... hopefully the female cannon fodder are succesful so WA makes some more female sets.
@William Redford I would get them for that purpose, but sadly I have no use for the bodies and guns. I'm hopeful that a "tribal woman" set that I pitched in one thread or another a while back...
The Panzerjagers are something of a missed opportunity since the don't have the assault rifle/gl shown in the art work. I'd have taken the opportunity to give more of a variant to the Stormtroopers...
Thank you my friend your scource of Knoledge never lets me down amazing insights, I too was thinking along the lines ofthe british Boyes, not having a total Kill, more a cripple wound. I love the E...
GW has surprised me by making something I like. Too bad that I expect the price to be prohibitive. I have already started trying to convince Mrs. GG...
The GW Ash Waste Nomads are about to go on preorder:
$20 for a single mini? Pass. She's cool looking, just way overpriced. The detail is decent, but nothing amazing. I guess they're banking on the D&D brand name to justif...
@Benjamin Hayward "Dungeon Fodder," I like it! Potentially you could eventually release a combo sprue small dungeon in a box set. This was William Ings' idea here: https...
Even more Germany: Bunch of USGI halftracks front. Bunch of USGI halftracks, back. Winch. Roller. Driver's position. Halftrack versus thin skin HMMWV comparison. https://en.wik...
Was just about to chime in about Reaper's kobolds. My brother just bought a bunch and they look pretty great. That said, if WGA put out a mutli-part kit for kobolds, they could put them, the gobli...
To be fair, I love the Frostgrave kits, but most of their heads - male and female - are kinda fugly. That's true of pretty much all the North Star stuff: awesome kits chock-full of sweet...
Mrs, GG and I have enjoyed the Space Force TV series... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bdpYpulGCKc ... but yeah, that uniform looks a bit off to me. I seem to recall hearing the design was inspi...
@H M I agree with you on the heads in the female soldiers box. The heads in the female wizards box are a bit better. I am excited for Wargames Atlantic's cannon fodder 2 set... I plan on using...
I strongly agree with the gap in female figures - I'd love to see some more out there, as even just one or two multi parts kits would vastly increase the range of possibilities out there. Right now...
Well, I wanted to wait until she was finished to post, but... more yard work and my hands (arms) have developed the muscle strain shakes... so... Here she is with a wargames atlantic body. First t...
@William Redford Nicely done. Really creative conversion. Thanks for your notes.
@Grumpy Gnome Think too far forward and you end up with this ;) (Actual Space Force dress uniforms. Not a joke.) (Interestingly I was talking with a Space Force E9 [Super Space Mas...
I think this is a fantastic idea. The different ritualized gladiator types and matchings is fascinating. There are a few rule sets out there for gladiatorial combat. The mi...
A more modern source of inspiration might be the XM25. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/XM25_CDTE Cliff notes: The Army started by developing the XM29. Which was a smart round launcher...
@JTam Thanks for the info and correction brother. Fascinating stuff! As for the dress browns... Sharp uniform for sure, but I wish the US military would look forward rather than look back. I...
So I recently got the Panzerjager kit and really like it...... minus the fact none of their equipment looks adequate to actually kill a tank. Maybe in an accessory or command sprue/kit ...
Would Mr. Mondragon himself be able to help? Any way of getting a hold of him?
