@Brian Van De Walker Yeah, the Modern Set will be in the historical scale rather than death field 'heroic'.
@Brian Van De Walker Yeah, the Modern Set will be in the historical scale rather than death field 'heroic'.
@John Wilson those guns will likely be in "1/56" along with something taticy cool.
@Yronimos Whateley Actually the farina helmets would be pretty hard too since I have not really seen anything else quite like them in 28mm plastic:
@Yronimos Whateley Or as industrial fantasy knights and men-at-arms for games like Sludge. When they had the miniature design contest my proposal was WW1 Germans in body armor, basically so ...

One more squad ready to go (stuck home with the Covid, had a full 3 hours to paint)
@Yronimos Whateley The US sci-fi light Infantry email teasers have been out for a while (also been confirmed to be death fields), the last teaser was I believe in February 2021 (First was in Oct 20...
Thanks for the review, I do enjoy hearing what folks think about certain movies. The film may have been underwhelming but at least your review of it has brought something I was unaware of to my at...
Really like the concept! Can you post a pic more from straight on... so we can better see the height differences between the fodder and Marines? Are any of the fodder getting a heavy stubber?
@JTam Actually if it’s more of a big upgrade sprue (ie, maybe 1 crewmen body at most on the sprue), you could probably fit most if not all the options mentioned in the survey on 1 sprue.
@Dalton McCormick If I am following you train of thought right I agree I think. I would rather have a "regular tank" version of the FT-17 for history gaming in historical scale instead of Dea...
Hey all, this is my first post on this forum, but you all might know me as Little Nash on Facebook. I came home from work earlier and found a box of Cannon Fodder waiting for me! Now, naturally I g...
@Hudson Adams I am good with original 2 box plan. Personally I probably wouldn't want more than 1 pose/set of arms for Archers per sprue (thats an at most) since historically archers tended to be...
@Yronimos Whateley I sort of forgot about most of that except "standard equipment" "final death" "fallen behind new, younger franchises" and "last chance for an owner to profit", but lack of proper...
In honor of the possible WGA WW1 Russians kit: (Sneak peak from 14 JAN 21) A short review of the 2015 film "Battalion." "Battalion" is a Russian language, Russian production movie that more or l...
@JTam Nah, Reaper, Mantic, Northstar and several others have the “all in one package” covered for this. Plus most of those monsters done the way your suggesting already have a proven...
@William Redford Appreciate the comparison pics! As you said they all look OK together, with the exception of the Oathmark macrocephaly guy. That being said a cohesive painting style ...
@JTam They would be really good for elite/veteran troops in K47 :)
"These are the dregs of the Death Fields sport: the washouts, the mental cases, the warriors who just can't cut it or the teams whose strategy, training, or cunning have fallen behind new, younger ...
Cannon fodder aren't formers miners or prisoners, they're desperate veterans on their last fight. I think even a command box would be unsuited to them. at most, something scavenged and very illegal...
Out of place, but not by very much - at least with the Frostgrave and GW stuff: those seem to all mix-and-match really well between each other, in my experience. The bodies are a bit s...
Exactly - and with a boxed set of this sort of undead? Sign me up, for any era, especially with a good variety of different heads to customize it with! :) And speaking of heads, I really lik...
@Yronimos Whateley Yup. Good point. Is the above a dead Saxon, 1930s farmer, or 21st century fashion reject?
Yes! And the same could be said of a zombie in torn pants and the indistinct rags of a torn shirt, or the tatters of bandages, or a torn shroud, or even a ragged robe.... And those sorts of...
Maybe the Goliath and LMG sprue above is too packed. Maybe remove two prone bodies, four arms, and a machinegun in order to have more room for the Goliath parts. Sprue would consequentl...
Yes: The Release Schedule teases an upcoming (but unspecified) first modern set. A few weeks ago, there was a preview render "sneak peek" of just one side (shoulder, arm, hip, and leg) of a ...
A zombie miniature in the shreds of pants can pretty much work from 1000 to 2022.
Once upon a time, I used to be an historical gamer till I heard about Chainmail and D&D. Then came Laserburn and WhFB 1st, and I turned into quite a dual classe collector/hoarder player. ...
My eyes deceive me quite frequently, but da! I do think it could be, comrade! And, are those Mongol recurve bows?
not fussed by the Byzantines, but Ottoman Turks would be so useful
Man, I'd buy the hell out of some sci-fi cowboys and Indians. Wild West Exodus is just too busy-looking for me, if someone put out some that were a tad toned-down visually, I'd snatch them up...
@BS Kitbasher - I think you're probably right about the modern zombie figures: that's going to be a very specific niche, which can probably only be done one way. Fantasy and gothic horror g...
I'd be all-in on that construction power armor!
While we are about it let me propose a new 'cavalry' set: field officers(colonels and majors). Let me propose a new 'cavalry' set: field officers. Yo...
Eccentric Miniatures, a little one-man made-in-the-USA miniatures company, does some nice generic medieval European 28mm ballistas and crews as injection-molded plastic kits; the crew might not be ...
@BS Kitbasher Well that was interesting Google.
I think I heard on an interdimensional Death Fields game broadcast that the Cannon Fodder's "power-armor" are actually construction exo-suits stolen from the hellish work-camps on the prison planet...
As long as Wolfman has nards... I am in.
Yeah, it was the helmets in particular. I recall meeting an elderly German gentleman on a bus in Berlin who guessed I was an American soldier despite my civilian clothes. Apparently he was a tank ...
Considering how many gamers want zombies, especially modernish zombies, I think they would be better as their own kit. I love the idea of a monster squad kit that can fill out any castlevania...
Would it be possible to give the archers throwing sticks? There were so many interesting designs the Egyptians used for throwing sticks, I'd love to have some as options.
I like where you're going on this. I suspect the bodies can be a little more interchangeable: generally ragged or tattered clothes including shrouds and bandages, on more or less gaunt and c...
I was envisioning this set as one stop shopping for players of Silver Bayonet/Dungeon Crawler X/Skirmish Game Du Jour who need opposition forces. Wouldn't be as useful for the building of re...
Another half sprue: Goliath and light machine gun. The machinegun crew is doing the classic German gunner firing from the AG's shoulder pose. The sprue also allows one to build the Goliath o...
While these are definitely a good set of creatures to do sets for, I think that trying to cram them all into one set might reduce their desireability to buyers.especially those looking for mass bat...
This morning 14 JAN 22: What!!!!! Could it be:
Yes to Russian Napoleonic artillery when you need the(your favoured scale) equivalent of twelve guns for each battery the costs add up. Yes, also to Russian Napoleonic cavalry, of whom...
Looking good, with the Roman helmets and shields, you could use these for unarmoured Late Romans too
@Lord Marcus That is actually a really good point! I thinkI'll rescind my critique lol
