I joined just to take part in this poll. I said 'successors' but was tempted by 'earlier roman' stuff. In all honesty though, I'd love to see either some Sea Peoples like the sherden to co...
Could you do us a favor and post a close up shot of one the WGA French Infantry next to your FT17? What scale is your FT17? Thanks!
What about mid-century European wars? There are the Italian Wars of Independence (esp. 1859), Austro-Prussian(1866) and Franco-Prussian (187l) Wars?
@William Ings This would be insta buy from me (from local shop tho).
I'm most likely not remembering the army builder part properly (Grognard / Old Guard) I personally am more of a collector then a gamer. So Army Builders are a welcome edition regardless of game sy...
I have no idea why you assume there is an army builder since 24 to 30 a box is actually more than enough normally for most sci-fi games outside of WH40k, was there an announcement I missed? ...
@Brian Van De Walker I would include one or two robed/caped torsos and head options to cover any range of holymen, spell casters and nobles for the corresponding time period in what I would dub a H...
@Corwen Broch I would call the Warlord range complete but not good.
Bonus points if the laser rifles vaguely look like this:
So, that's an awkward thread title. But the idea is this: Seperate the left rifle arm into another piece on the sprue. This of course slows down the build process but gives increas...
I see you went in with no half measures! Awesome. Like the second "army" shot.
Does anyone make plastic 28mm Zouves?
Vietnam has been long overlook for wargaming at 28mm plastic range. There is so much variety/levels that can be played for this significant event.
Napoleon in Egypt might be an option for plastic, perhaps more for the Mamelukes than the French, the French had smaller forces so not too bad fielding them in metal (I like the Dixon range) but ho...
Tartars might be an option, basic hairy horse archers that would be usable for 1500-1800, but with a few optional bits (heads/hats) might be useful earlier. Also would like to see Ottoman Turks. P...
@Hudson Adams Rubicon are releasing their Vietnam range this year, would be great to have a selection of figures from are mix of manufacturers to choose from. Black Sun style weird Vietnam ga...
You should stay with two seperate Boxes. For NKE you also need many Archers cause most of the Foot were Archers and archery was highly treaded in bronze age egypt society.
army builder is unlikely.
@JTam Oddly enough, when I started wargaming, Minifigs produced 2 sizes of horse for Napoleonics, for light cavalry or heavy cavalry, the heavies were noticeably bigger and the lights tended to be...
@Gary Hughs Frankly as soon as they taked on ECW on to 30yw I was like "no, already have enough British guys in the house needing thier Danish/Spanish conversion helms!"🤣
Larger horse breeds are generally more recent. An easy way to look at early horse breeds isn't by looking at armour (relatively few horses were armoured) but look at horseshoes. Large horses genera...
More blue to overwhelm my opponent with. This now makes 50 soldiers and two sets of 5 command for the platoon leaders. I figure with so many of them now painted I should take a picture of ever...
I voted 7 years’ war, it would be real interesting if did that and looked at foreign theaters like East India and America first. Vietnam is already being done by Rubicon with infantry and veh...
This is a cool project and a great use of the spare Tau bits! Look forward to watching this progress!
voted War of the Spanish Succession, quite a busy period but no decent plastic figures at present - the ones that Warlord have are just reboxed figures from the old Wargames Factory range, and alth...
Not sure about Vietnam as there are a few new rules sets and models coming out in the next year or so. I f you were to do Vietnam I would suggest one of the allied nations or ARVN rather than Ameri...
As a retailer in europe, from a business point of view i would say vietnam. Also because rubicon is coming with a range a plastic vehicles. from a personal view i would opt for vietnam and e...
I'd like to see Vietnam War, we don't see much of it in 28mm ranges.
Vietnam War, please & thank you!
I say Vietnam for the above mentioned kitbashing reason. The war itself is really not my thing, but I can really see a use for both parts and minis in other times and places...
Anything that will get me Highlanders to run in Kings of War!
American Civil War does seem an odd one, given how many other companies already cover the war extensively. I would have pitched the Mexican-American War or Texas Revolution as an alternative. That...
@JTam the WW1/WW2 combo is what I also have been thinking would be possible, and also a good argument for WGA to make them. It is a empty space in the plastic market, and they seem to like to fill...
I would certainly like to see cavalry. Heroically scaled 28mm horse cavalry, motorbike cavalry, or hoverbike cavalry would have a great deal of appeal to a large segment of the hobby.&...
Always nice to see new ranges :-)There are already good plastic ranges for ECW from Warlord Games, though there are one or two gaps (English clubmen and Highlanders for example). Vietnam plastics a...
I voted for the American Civil War. That being said Vietnam seems to be the new hotness in historical gaming. I just find the Vietnam War too close and fresh to "game."
Early hundred years war so I can fillally make the Berserk inspired "band of the hawk" :)
Anything blackpowder is good, the earlier the better.
Seems like best reasons for a Flash Poll!!!!
Yeah, I'm thinking Vietnam would be a great range that ends up being real useful for a lot of kit bashing + some moderns + some alternative reality stuff.. we already have lizardmen with AKs and De...
Vietnam, absolutely!)))
For 28mm, I'd say Vietnam. But I would LOVE to see American Civil War in a smaller scale in plastic.
Because I'm bored, distracting myself from actual work, and was curious about something. Have at it!
With Death Fields still in its early stages we don't know what a full team will look like. So far Les Grognards are in the lead with a modest but strong two kits (doing in two what the leading comp...
