I guess it comes down to who actually purchases these sets. From my foxhole I only see skirmish fantasy game players buying miniatures like this. These players would probably prefer bo...

@Robert Barber maybe it would be cool if they're cosmonauts rather than military troops. As a bit of fluff it could be the case that since they were the first to make it to space it put them on th...
@Hudson Adams i'd say keep it as two boxes, people will get annoyed if they can't do complete units of spearmen or archers (and folk looking to build big are likely to be buying multiple boxes) pe...
@William Redford Thanks. The size of heads used versus the kits they were used on is very useful information.
Don't do it! Some armies limited poses are not much of an issue, but with horde (large amounts) armies this is.
But we would definitely lose some if we merge the sets?
@BS Kitbasher LOL no. No idea until we get further into it. The original plan was most of the parts you see on the preview divided between the two sets.
How about cyborg Highlanders? You could call them "The Immortals", with the flavour being that they've been blown up and rebuilt so many times that they're barely human, so they could be the equiv...
Can you elaborate on which weapon or head options we'd have to give up for each percentage of Archers?
I think archers are better suited to an army builder set. The poses that make sense for archers on the battlefield are pretty limited, so it makes more sense to me at least if the main variation i...
@Grumpy Gnome Were are you now then my friend, funny I Thought England with us. J Tam loved the vids, like, the Bolt action pictures, Twilight 2000 as just been re-released, its now set ...
@JTam Yeah. I deleted the pics so it doesnt derail the thread, but I used the pulp heads on the landsknechts and Perry cavalry, and the heroic heads on the Demi Gryphs and GW horses
Are those Statuesque Mini's heads? They truly make just about every mini better.
I advise against catering your product to people looking for ways to buy less of it
@William Redford "30 GW Greatswords cost around the same as 120 Conquistadors" Oh, I know.
@JTam will do. I havent decided. I have been buiding human empire armies for the last couple years. This will be my 4th. I have one made from Warlord games ECW, one from Fireforge Northmen, and one...
Is that an army of knights with female head on the right shelf, four shelves up?
@Willie Bogaerts I am not super familiar with this time period. I just purchased Osprey's Byzantine Armies AD 1118-1461. Fireforge games had a recent kickstarter that produced 3 plastic kits... Hor...
@William Redford Looks like it will be an awesome project. Please post progress pics once you have the WGA miniatures in hand. Nice hobby shelves! Have you decided which Empire provi...
Cleared a shelf for the new army. The Giants are already waiting.
I am going to add some Fireforge Northmen to use as unit leaders and heroes. I have 2 Imperial giants that I purchased from @Lord Marcus excellent web shop. Just have to wait for the Conquistador ...
Just ordered the 5 box deal. Will see how far i can go with 120 conquistadors to start.
I think Fireforge's Northmen will be a good match with this set, and I seem to recall had the same sculptors? I plan on adding some heroes/ leaders using Northmen, though probably with conquistador...
A poll on Egyptians...
I think a problem with suggesting anything for the Raumjagers, is the Eisenkern's might already be filling that role...such as the (coming) Valkir heavy troopers or any weapon based of the MG42 (wh...
I agree with Yronimos Whateley And, all that reminds me: I really really hope Wargames Atlantic and the folks behind Iron-Core bring back that Eisenkern Stormtrooper Accessory set, with its ...
Compare with GW FB empire please.
@Lord Marcus I agree, I actually like them with muscles, gives them a sword and sandles epic vibs.
@Yronimos Whateley No, the torso I was refering to as a tank crewman was not in any of the pics, its in this one to the far right: As to the rapped foot in the other photo I am fairly sure...
Able to do a side by side with GW 5th/6th edition empire troops? I know the conquistadors are def' smaller than the 7th/8th edition plastics. Thanks!
I used a Calpe officer and a Perry plastic drummer for my first battalion and they seem to work together fine
Oops. Reference the turret degree markings: I thought they were on AVREs, but they were actually on Centaurs with 95mm howitzers. I may do it anyway. It is an interesting look. I have neve...
Having lived in Seattle, and done some security work at the Port, that Seattle video certainly made the hair on the back of my neck stand up.
They actually said they had no plans on making tanks on the FB group and there are a lot of options out there already (some absurdly afforadable, and no I am not talking about 3D printing). But giv...
@Nick Wright The resins are a relitivaly new thing, the plastic Portuguese have been around for awhile now, though like a lot of plastic nappy sets its all marching poses so a good skirmish/f...
@Yronimos Whateley Byzantines are always fun.
@Brian Van De Walker which is pretty much rejected by anyone who actually looks at the evidence given the rather extensive sampling and the fairly complete evolutionary history we have, able to ide...
If these trailers don't get you juiced for Cold War gaming I don't know what will: https://youtu.be/AdzZBx2eUcQ https://youtu.be/h5Vmf3u0D1A
@Geoff Maybury that was so long ago,, I can't even remember. I guess we can light this one up (and hopefully see good things come of it). Sorry you guys got hit so hard from the fallout. I sometime...
Oops. Reference the turret degree markings: I thought they were on AVREs, but they were actually on Centaurs with 95mm howitzers.
What do u guys think of WA makes tanks for Death Field and they only need 3 kits. They can make light, medium, and heavy tanks and each box will bits for each different faction for the game. For ex...
@JTam same here!
@Brian Van De Walker you are right, I've just checked. I could have sworn they were warlords orrible resin when I was looking to buy, oh well
@Mithril2098 Oh, it gets better, from what I recall some paleontologist think the "paleontological evidence for equine evolution in pre Ice Age NA" is actually just a misbuild of giant rodent skele...
Wouldn't the heavy weapons the fallschirmjager actually used the most historically be the obvious option for inspiration maybe along with some sort of Jinro style power armor (though you do have th...
They do look really good. Someone (me) is about to get knee deep in Lustria: Cities of Gold.
@Lord Marcus Awesome to see you on here. I was perusing your web store just last week. Your WW1 WGA Conversion Bundles are really cool. The desert skeletons as well.
So excited for these!
I've been nagging about this for quite some time, but Russian/Soviet Naval Infantry is something that I really would like to see in plastic. A company of Kronstadt sailors would be one of the main ...
