@Cole Lassell You may find the compatibility better with Warlord's "German Infantry plastic box set." It's an older Warlord kit which means the figures aren't as THIC as the newer kits...

I have access to sprues from pretty much every wargames Atlantic release. I had a spark of imagination the other night and came up with a sci Fi project. "Legions of the New Principate." The leg...
@JTam Not an exact list, I gotta see how well the parts mix for this kit and the WL kits cause things like snipers and pioneers would be nice.
Great idea. It does completely change the look and feel. It does have a pulse rifle feel. It also reminds me of the HK G11. The squad automatic weapon and sniper rifle a...

OK. I've discovered incontrovertible proof that Viking Shield Maidens existed. If they didn't exist, they couldn't get sucked into space to become Death Fields Cannon Fodder. BOOM!&nbs...
The major combatants, France, Germany, Great Britain and the Commonwealth all wore collar -less undershirts. I couldn't tell you what the Russians and smaller nations were issued. I th...
Beautiful Universal Carrier. (Note the PIAT stored on the center line.) (2 inch mortar at front right of vehicle.) (Left rear stowage.) (Right rear, looking forward.) https://e...
Interesting idea. Jack boots or low boots with putees does indeed cover just about everybody. Were "collarless" undershirts as pictured common to all powers or were there variations? I suppose b...
Simple and effective. Nicely done conversion and write up. Thanks Brother.
At the local Air Show and Military Display today. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberty_truck That's a lot of pictures of one vehicle, but how often do you get t...
@Hudson Adams Was thinking today - I've been wanting to model a regiment of High Elf cavalry as if they're marching on campaign but there are no walking horses in plastic at all on the ma...
@Christopher Tyrer Are you still going to do the conversions/use the Eureka heads if the Japanese Infantry are released with double bed rolls?
@JTam Yeah, you can get them with beards too!
One thing to look out for are the compilation books that offer quite a bit of savings, such as Rome and Her Enemies or Soldiers of the Dragon. I don't know if this is a good place to get i...
@JTam Hi pal, built 3 Marines, gosh guys, I`m impressed, i`ll get some more done today and photo them with the the Kit boxes as back ground. Tam I had a real shock with the Centurion, modern...
Most 28mm artillery crews are dress in summer uniforms. Being a gunner is rather a active job & in summer months can get very hot & demanding for the gun crews. With this...
@Grumpy Gnome No problem. Next, I'm trying to figure out a flame thrower for the cannon fodder.
Is it just me, or if you cut off the bayonet and tip of the barrel on the rifles it suddenly takes it from an Imperial Guard Lasgun vibe to a more Colonial Marines Pulse Rifle feel? I think I...
@Cole Lassell I will be watching with interest. I am particularly interested in your ideas on how to convert to Kriegsmarine.
Clever! Thanks for sharing that.
Oh, I also ended up with a box of Cannon Fodder and I have dived in. I will say, that skin tone paint looks much better on the tabletopthan it does in photos.
@Slow Painter Thanks for the compliment on the lizards. I really like your conversion as well. It fits really smoothly together. As to how I made the lizardman rocket launcher, I took ...
Someone asked elsewhare how I made my lizard man rocket launcher from the lizard man sprue, but it seemed more appropriate to make it's own topic instead of picture dumping on another thread. So i...
Very cool project. Looking forward to watching the project log progress. Do you have a tentative 1000 point list already?
So with the Panzer Lehr on its way I started working on a project, I have been working on a paint scheme for the future release. My current plan is simple, A 1000 point BA Panzer Lehr army. For th...
Shikatchs seemed taller in WW1 than WW2 or modern day. (If WGA did a set, could the decal set include rifle stock art?) This is the most extreme example: Conversely, these seem WW2...
@Christopher Tyrer I had no idea Eureka had WW1 early war Serbs. There's no pictures of the heads. I assume they look much like this? Going back to the joys of research, I ...
I wonder if the artist who did this piece is the same artist who does all the great Bolt Action covers? They have the same feel.
@Steffen Seitter Went to look for Sengoku period monk headgear.... fell down the rabbit hole of the the Komuso Monks....
Looking forward to Franks, and would also love to see Sasanids, Bulgarians, Dark Age cavalry.... Irish/Scots, and Byzantine Romans
How about offering a second box in greatcoats with papakha caps? If you made this kit without any other cap options, you could then either include an extra 2 figures or have a maxim gun included.&n...
I'm so much looking forward to the release of WGA Russians! The only changes that I would like to see (if any changes are to be made) are: No shoulder boards. it's easier to add them us...
I've already bought some 28mm Serb heads from eureka miniatures. Now I'm just waiting for the release of WGA Japanese to convert into Serbian infantry... Hopefully some 1914 Austrians to follow!
Four sets I think would be viable.... Austro-Hungarian Infantry. the early Pike blue uniform with lanyards & oak leaves in their hats. Heads wearing the feldmutze & a Fez for M...
@JTam thanks! That's a really counter-intuitive way to have a sale, though.
@JTam No such thing as an Osprey problem ;)
@Grumpy Gnome I read the second link: "Viking Shield Maiden Facial Reconstruction". It is amazing what science can do now. Reconstruction:
A great deal for anyone building or contemplating building WGA WW1 French or Germans.
@BS Kitbasher The 70% Off banner takes you to just a handful of books as you said. Browse as you normally would via "Series" or "Period". Almost everything I've clicked on is on s...
Is there a link to a full list of books? I clicked the banner on their website, and it took me to a page that had, like, 9 books. Maaaaaaaybe 12.
WGA: Wait, WGA already has a relationship with Sarissa? Sarissa makes this awesome Tachanka: Sarissa Tachanka It's made of wood which is distinctly satisfying for a wood vehicle. But it...
@Yronimos Whateley LOL if WGA is just trolling us with little things that are off.
@Yronimos Whateley The problem solving aspect is enjoyable. The other enjoyable element is the research. One always finds out something new when one starts digging into a campaign or ...
It's been brought to my attention that I may have a Osprey problem: https://wargamesatlantic.com/community/xenforum/topic/52296/show-your-hobby-space
