How about a Nebelwerfer? Also the Goliath RC bomb might be useful for taking out dug in enemy?
There havent been many topics started lately... so I started thinking about what might be a good kit for fantasy. What would I like... how about a giant. GW has some 200mm plastic giants. So a war...
Love Wargames, but real war is always a tragedy. I hope the Ukrainians can keep their country and the many good people in Russia get rid of their leadership. A good symbolic action on the part of ...
The box game could be the quintessential French Vs German battle of Verdun. The available WGS kits work well and you get to use a lot of the options. For example the French have Chaucha...
@Forrest Wentworth Looking forward to your pictures. It's fun to hunt around for stuff. I saw a T-38 Talon on a stick the other day dropping off someone at a small region...
@Yronimos Whateley Per your last question: I'm not sure, but it appears to be ribbed for someone's pleasure. Or it's Shai-hulud. Or it's a cosmonaut's cuff.
An interesting and valiant unit: The 26th Cavalry Regiment - Philippine Scouts: Wiki 26th Cav (Philippine_Scouts) Charge! Conducted the US Cavalry's last charge against enemy forces.
@Timothy Peterson I didn't say that they were in the UK (back then it was called Great Britain & the servicemen would have called themselves either English, Irish, Welsh or Scottish....
You're almost certainly right about the French Old Guard - I can't quite make heads or tails of how an American Old Guard might work, but - being unfamiliar with both the American and French Old Gu...
Oh, good call - I wasn't familiar with that one, but the Filipinos' role in the war sounds like a fascinating topic, and it does sond perfect for this sort of scenario! The Dirty Dozen and Bridge ...

I would like to see any A7V tank. As a matter of fact, ANY tank from the Great War made in plastic. But, the British Mk.IV and the Renault FT-17, which is slated to be released by Rubicon models,wo...
Picture of the Blood and Valor metal miniatures mixed with WGA plastics:
Suspenders/braces worn down would look cool. I'm not sure I would serve a gun with suspenders flopping about however.
@Forrest Wentworth eisenkern stormtroopers are the best. panzer work too.
@Cole Lassell I'd like a plastic A7V, but which one? They were handmade, and each one was different: Different panel lines, different door details, different all over.
@Christopher Tyrer Interesting photo: They are not in the UK, as they are wearing respirators. The IWM says it's 1918, so Western Front is most likely. NOTE: They are wearing neither jackboots nor ...
@david phillips You're thinking of Einherjar. Raumjager are based on WW2 German Paratroopers.
@Forrest Wentworth They are pretty good set, a bit complex but worth it.
@Yronimos Whateley Great points about potential flexibility. Keeping in WW2 - These rules might be great for Filipino Guerillas and US Rangers taking out Japanese sentries ala T...
@Yronimos Whateley Great breakdown and analysis of upcoming releases. I assumed the Old Guard was the French Old Guard. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Old_Guard_(France) I love M...
@Timothy Peterson LOL
I don't usually do historic gaming, and up to now if I did, I thought it would most likely be for the first world war, but I've got to say that this game looks like it would be a lot of fun - remin...
A (Russian?) dude with an ushenka-style hat and a magnificent mustache, and a...? The Release Schedule says we have five secrets in a mystery status, one secret in file prep (roughly halfway throu...
@JTam I do not want to be the cavalryman digging a foxhole for himself and his horse with THAT shovel.
Thank you for sharing this tutorial, it is an awesome effect!
Anyone know if an Einherjar command/support kit is on its way?
@William Redford Nice! Thanks Brother.
@JTam Mantic https://www.manticgames.com/games/kings-of-war/forces-of-nature-druid/
@William Redford Huh. Interesting. Thanks. Anyone know who makes the center metal miniature?:
This sounds like heresy, but I'm surprised how similar the Polish and German cavalry uniforms, weapons, and equipment (ammo pouches, gas mask canisters, mess tins) are. You could fudge Polish...
@JTam Wargames Atlantic. The same sculptor made a set of Amazons for wargames Factory back in the day... but the sprue shot is from the new set in production. RGD gaming and Wargames Atlantic made...
More "references" for Shield Maidens: And just because it's really cool art:
This is really cool. I wish I had something to contribute on this thread. I need to look up the museums around here. 🤔
@Grumpy Gnome I don't think the statement "yes, you can already find these in metal" is really necessary on this board. Just about everything that's ever been or ever will be is availa...
@William Redford The Amazons are from Wargames Atlantic or Wargames Factory?
Yeah, but I think my Sheckels will be dedicated to araby and valkyries.
I think you can add Forest Goblins to this pledge for a reduced price?
I missed out on the forrest Goblins. I recall it being around the same time as some other Kickstarter... but cant remember what. Though Bones 6 starts soon... so i will likely be in that do for at ...
@William Redford Good for you. The camel cavalry is cool. I'll probably do the one box pledge for a Mordheim warband. I have some their Forest Goblins and liked them very...
I am in for a "garrison army" which is 80 Aravises, 10 camel cavalry and 3 resin heroes. They will make good Slaaneshi mortals... But I will use them as the army of my Sultana.
So, While i would prefer a "realistic" non-cheesecake barbarian girls set... Like the pictures JTam posted... I would be ok with a Bikini set too. As there is a place in fantasy gaming for both, an...
Yeah I wanna see more of these germans now! that guy on the left looks really cool!
WGA seems to be pioneering early war plastics. I hope that trend continues with Polish troops. Polish cavalry is an iconic troop type. Also, nasty in Bolt Action. Well e...
The thing is, Mrs. GG and I are not keen to see yet more fur bikini minis... which seems to be a default when folks say, “female barbarian warrior”. We are keen to see female models, w...
Hmm, while JTam and GG are making arguments for Shield Maidens (most of which seem to not really be that historically factual), with others echoing for things like Boudica. While there likely...
Good review/write up: https://nodicenoglory.com/2020/08/31/blood-and-valor-starter-set-review/ This game is from December 2019?!? I thought it was brand new.
