@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 ...
The obvious to me, that many have mentioned, is of course the russian theme. Based on the WW1 or WW2 russian/soviets with a dash of AK47. Since I do enjoy the Hoth idea, I do also think that the wi...
We were asked how they'd look for a human Oathmark army. Here's a couple quickly glued together and photoed next to an Oathmark human figure:
I definitely think you could get away with having all these options in one box. Would be an awesome kit for WW2 28mm gamers ingeneral as no one offers any of these options in plastic.
@Mark Hoffman Good point about all the armor models in 1/48. That being said they are model kits, not miniatures kits if that makes sense. The pleasure is supposed to be in the b...
As stated in other places, excellent preview with great models. I'm not going to join the side that says they are too buff. To me, thats raised detail for easier painting.
I'm extremely happy with how the kits came out. The research, especially on the Aztecs, was a very fun project. I also can't wait to get these in stock for my webstore. they look like they are goi...
I love the inventive use of bits to create Gue'vesa. Nice conversions. I will be watching this thread.
How big is the armored car? if its replacing sentinels it should be rather compact, no? Did you design it for resin or FDM?
Panzerschreck and MG42 in heavy configuration (tripod) have the lead in the poll. For my own amusement put together this Panzerschreck and MG42 sprue mockup. It's a half-sprue like the Death...
For a sci-fi PAK gun, I would suggest something closer along the lines of a Pak40's carrage, because I think it has a sleeker and more passably modernish shape than the 36, which has an awkwardly h...
@Yronimos Whateley "It seems that these hardy Scandinavian horses made their way across the Americas, where they thrived reasonably well in the wild and in rough countryside with low maintenance," ...
@Battle Specter Hi Mike, I was Airborne on the forum my wife Eileen was Gingernut, we are now retiered traders of wargaming. I had been in a Military Vehicle Conservation Group, for many years, pic...
Didnt expect to read about horsebreeding today, but now I did and glad about it. I find the bit about the socio economic reasons for the demise of well trained infantry on the continent particular...
Perry plastic Prussian Command are a perfect fit
Check out the Statum Atlanticum article
Artistic freedom and practicality all the way: seems to me the best way to get the most bang-per-buck out of expensive sculpting and tooling and manufacture and so on would be to focus on som...
Could be a mixed Kit with every Variant of the L3/33 / L3/35 Takette.
AHA - that L3/35 does look like a pretty good match for what's in those preview shots - what a cool little vehicle, I've never seen one before! And those preview shots reveal why I was thinking of...
I thought about mentioning Byzantines for an "other" choice, I'm not sure the poll's actually open, though. I do notice that it doesn't display poll results. And it looks like I might be ...
@Brian Van De Walker I thought so too.
Did it, maybe some Gladators for my second chose, otherwise focus on Eastern enemies next.
@JTam @Mark Hoffman 1/50 is probably what Historical 28mm scale should be label as and have vehicles made in given that is what one the online 3D print shops I came across started doing aft...
@JTam JTam, There are quite a few makers of 1/48th scale armored vehicles out there.Tamiya makes an entire line of plastic 1/48th scale WW2 armored vehicles,along with a few more modern ve...
@Grumpy Gnome@Nick Wright I thought Warlord did plastic Portuguese?!?🤔
How much of a "thing" were armored horses in/around Dark Ages Ireland? Looking at the Irish warriors themselves, my instincts tell me that the horses were probably relatively lightly armored ...
I know this will get some worked up, but I hope WGA produces their vehicles in 1/48 or 1/50th. 1. 1/48 or 1/50 is a much better match for today's "28mm" plastics. Have you noticed the ...
@Yronimos Whateley @JTam For bit I thought it might be a Kettenkrad too except for SciFi gaming (Raumjager stuff), but some helpful person on FB showed me some L3/35 pic with the treads more in fo...
@Hudson Adams thank you for your informative reply. This is what I was looking for. As others said, I understand delays, but was just concerned as things got pushed back, but didn't see something a...
Thinking about sci-fi Kettenkrads fitted with heavy weapons made me think of the modern real world equivalent. The air mobile Wiesel. An extremely light and small chassis that gives increase...
I dont know if I just too slow to find it, if so please show me the way. I love kitbashing, and the whole WA Range is full of possibilities. So naturally I ask myself how well the different kits ...
war elephants with tusk swords for history or fantasy would be awesome.
I love the Idea of jungle fighter inspired by the 20th century vietnamese armies. But I also like the rambo variety. Speaking for myself ofc but GW doing new sets would not change anything visavis ...
I was considering getting a few boxes of the Prussian Reserve Army Builder set and I was wondering if anyone had already sourced a good command group that matches the figures well? I'm hoping for a...
That is interesting, still I think for modelling purposes we can take some artistic freedom. But a Wargames Atlantic Warpony/realistic-Horse Sprue could be fun :D
Very interesting. I would be interested in the further results of the study as they look at/measure preserved horse armor. I wonder if you could do living history archeology or whatev...
Done for now. These are WA Dark Age Irish I'm taking as part a Pict warband.
many great ideas in thist thread. I would say, since the Raumjäger are based on Airborne/Paratroopers their heavy weapons should look "light" ( yea I know) and airmobile. So Panzerfaust, Light...
@Geoff Maybury i wrote "Battle for New Detroit." Was really big on them. Got a box of Germans, three of four boxes of UAMC, a box of the bugs. I was all in. Invested enough in the hardsuits f...
For the TLDNW (Too Long Did Not Watch) crowd (like I often am,) there's some nice size comparisons between Warlord metal Italians, Empress metal Italians, and WGA's plastic Italians starting at 27m...
Of what’s been brought up Winged Hussars and eastern European Bradich axe and matchlock infantry to go with them, along with some period appropriate ottoman forces to face off against would b...
@Yronimos Whateley Nice ideas! Tents? Dead horses? Casualties?
I think the exo-suit idea is brilliant. By itself, it's the equivalent of a forklift or similar small construction/utility vehicle, but optional armor and weapons could be included on the bas...
A brilliant idea, and fantastic suggestions! This suggestion is vaguely reminiscent (to me) of the Grognard heavy weapon/command set. Atillary would perhaps best be handled in its own dedica...
I'm on a Windows PC with Firefox, it seems to have worked great, except that the "other (let us know below)" type option doesn't seem to have been a field in the poll - I don't know/remember what t...
That's a weirdly interesting subject. Wargames Atlantic posted an interview a couple months ago with the sculptor for their upcoming Chinese Warring States Cavalry, which included an equally...
