Hey, just figured I'd drop a line and say, the copy paste for the submission format still says April, not June. Pretty sure i didn't catch it in my submission, so may want to look out for it while ...
My entry for the June-July painting competition Title: Protect the guns! Kits used: Janissaries and Ottoman Noble Admirals. Description: In the midst of a siege on the Hungarian frontier, a sort...
@Brian Van De Walker Not trying anything, but you are purposely not wanting to understand the concept I'm proposing to push your own. Comparing Witcher to Dungeon anime and saying it's the same th...
Thats the thing, I can't really see them as Stone Age; they seem more like a black powder empire or at least an iron age race that is deceptive looking. For the lizardmen, I would look more a...
@Vitor Correia Not really since adventurers in anime have guilds and parties (ie, Monster Hunter organizations), so no its exactly same basic concept but as written by a Polish guy instead of Japan...
@Brian Van De Walker Monster Hunter organization. Different than random group of Adventurers. Also great anime.
perhaps, but i'm just having trouble squaring the almost stone age style of the WGA lizardmen (with rough chipped stone spearheads and loincloths) with the level of society that would be able to pr...
@Mithril2098 Actually, I could see them having heavy weapon or artillery set and it still working for generic fantasy and VSF/SciFi easy. A cannon and maybe a light swivel cannon with option...
@Charles Tottington I don't think he mentioned space. @Paul Evans 17th-early 20th tend to need a boatload as well and most of the "anceint history with fantasy" rules I have come across are for sm...
@Vitor Correia nah, Witcher is just a D&D Ranger, and I wouldn't call him the typical or iconic werewolf hunter or Vampire hunter for that reason (I mean, he is mostly focused on killing dragon...
Partly due to the bulldogs getting them, partly due to them being a common trope.. but also because GW already has lizardmen riding raptors, in two flavors, so doing something else seems like a goo...
@Lord Marcus Hello, I noticed mounted body 4 is missing from the Lakota Sioux mounted set, thank you
As cool as space-mesoamerican lizardmen would be...... I agree with Bryan and Mithril. Where is the market for 10mm aztec lizards? 28mm space aztec lizards would already be stepping on GW's toes un...
I like the idea. I do get why you would be hesitant on using raptors due to how prevalent they are as calvary. Since Bulldogs already has a raptor calvary set you don't have to worry much about tha...
Or something Witcher like
so while reading the lizardmen thread over in the grand battles section, i started thinking about where the Lizardmen of the fantasy range could go in future expansion sets. an obvious one would b...
@Brian Van De Walker i agree. if they were going to do lizardmen, they should do their own lizardmen style, not GW's space-mesoamerican. heck, if the line does well they could do a sub-theme of the...
@Brian Van De Walker because ancient style games require a boatload of miniatures
Kit affected: German Trench Raiders Part(s) affected: Presumably Head08, Head09, Head10, Head11 Scope of issue: Ten heads depicted in the parts picture, only seven heads included in the files - b...
Glad I can help a little. There is one correction to make: I mis-remembered the Accessory Sprue heads as a flat-fit like the historical figures, but they're actually a ball-and-socket f...
@Rico M From my understanding if you are printing it out yourself, the digital stuff can be modified to fit, and if we are just talking WA's fantasy stuff, it should fit.
@Yronimos Whateley Wow, between you and Brian these are fantastic responses! I had high hopes for the Atlantic digital stuff, since they are: A. Available as small packs (no need to buy sprues that...
@Brendan Flynn I asked for a supported game, Warmaster died with WFB and it has not been revived given its on WayBack machine for free and I get the sinking feeling the history version was mo...
@Yronimos Whateley Also there actually are some big arsenal differences in both style and standard of what you can and should add to a monster hunter kit from a normal soldier arsenal which I...
Warmaster I would suggest. There are several sources for the requested army. Eureka miniatures 10mm lizardmen are excellent miniatures nut it would be nice to supplement these troops wi...
@Charles Tottington Yeah they did have them, enough so you can use history sets like like the ones by Perry's for the War of the Roses or WA's upcoming heavy armored conquestdor cavalry set. That s...
@Rico M Hmm, the older Fireforge knight/sarjent heads should work okay visually than if they seem bigger than WA's (I have actually placed those bad boys on armored Warlord Celts which quite a bit ...
@Charles Tottington well you can always change/proxy a gun for another gun, which isn't a bad idea with the space marine minis when using them for other games besides the fact that bolters are prob...
Here is a quick example of what a simple upgrade sprue can do for the recently previewed Infantry kits for example Helm capes swords etc.
@Jim Heath depends on how they sell them, if its a whole box of just that character sprue your right, if its one figure on a main sprue with stuff you need hundereds of, its a minor issue at most s...
@Steffen Seitter Thats early enough if they do Wokou Pirates, but just samurai it make only limited sense.
@Paul Evans ... That sounds like a lawsuit waiting to happen😆, though I suppose that could be doable, but why not 28mm ones though? what supported rules would you play with them with?
@Lord Marcus That is a fair assumption, though as Hudson said it may also be leftover soap from his first wash and I personally don't normally wash my plastic minis before assembling and have had n...
@Hudson Adams Hmm, I might do that, is there an estimateon when that is?
I was going to suggest War Fans for the Command Sprue, but I see they've already done those. In terms of other sprues, Mounted Samurai with Bows would be a nice addition. Maybe some kind of "Merc...
@Jim Heath yep!
@Hudson Adams Will there be a chance for folks who have pre-ordered the cavalry set before it was split into two to alter their order to include the second set?
I'm against historical individuals as that would lead to a fair amount of waste plastic on the frame after painting up the first Oda Nobunaga and so forth.
@Tom Kennish Yeah, and there are rules for super humans in the core rules of the skirmish game. My issue had been searching for power armor and weapons that match a space marine's arsenal.
@Yronimos Whateley I never realized that guns were around in medieval warfare that early! So knights with hand cannons and arquebuses would totally work.
Can someone please tell me just what these usy are suppsoed to be wearint? It is not P37 gear. The Braces are way too wide, and there is that odd horizontal chest piece that I've never seen. ...
@Harold Duffey If the parts were still slick, I'd assume you didn't wash them thoroughly enough to get all the dawn off.
I picked a point where the rider would naturally sit if not on a saddle, and used a drop of testors glue. I held the rider to the horse until the glue had partially set, then stood the figure again...
Once we're done with tooling in a few weeks they'll be up for pre-order.
Just use plastic solvent and you can position and "mush" into place with the benefit of fusing the parts together.
After a few attempts to get the skeletons to attach to the horse, I used some folded-over greenstuff to make a saddle. It was the only way to get enough contact for the rider to stay on.
I started to write a couple detailed essays on "medieval" monster-hunting characters, but realized after finishing them that, honestly, there are two points to be made: I don't think we're neces...
Any idea when both sets will be available to order ?
The connection is the same that Wargames Atlantic uses for all its historical stuff - a flat connection high up on the neck near/at the base of the skull. So, pretty much any of WA's historic...
