I wouldn't be surprised if GW's going to be doing a new Catachan range (well, new base infantry box - the heavy weapons teams and command squad are fine) to coincide with the next Guard codex - all...

Sorry for that triple post, but if you make something that's a cross between the first picturw and the second, you're gonna be Everybody's hero. Make the suit seperate from the soldier so it is eas...

Here is my idea or two: Since the Raumjagers are based on WW2 Fallshirmjager so I would draw my inspirations from there. In Grognards HW box we have choice of 4 weapon types and two mounts. Heres ...

I was actually writing up a more detailed post where I broke down the size of the Goliath and its crew, and decided not to post it as I was in danger of getting carried away: The Goliath might h...

WW1 Cossack cavalry as seen below center: MIGHT work with alternate weapons and some heads for WW2 Cossack cavalry in Soviet and German service. It would be a cool dual (triple?) purpose ki...

@Don Williams I like the idea of more nations getting releases but I also want them to keep adding to the exsisting. Def be cool to see some more minor nationa if anything getting upgrade sprues fo...

@Yronimos Whateley  All above true. But really a Goliath isn't much bigger than a person. One company casts their 28mm Goliath as one chunk of metal.

Very true:  a lot of these options really don't take up very much room on sprues.  The Goliath might take up a little more sprue real-estate than it seems, but most of this equipment sure...

In my experience, Games Workshop's "heroic" proportions have been some of the more outlandish, followed by Reaper's, particularly in some of the older, hand-sculpted models.  Proportions seem...

Panzerschreck and MG42 in heavy mode (with tripod): One kneeling Panzerschreck gunner with prone AG.  One kneeling or prone (using optic) MG42 gunner with prone AG.  Extra set of arms wi...

Some ideas for the set: Just Panzerschrecks: Prone Panzerschreck body, prone assistant gunner with rocket, kneeling gunner, and kneeling assistant gunner for four bodies.  Two Panzerschrecks ...

You're not alone:  I think that those three factions, along with the Ottoman Turks, have been some of the more popular requests for WWI factions.  Some discussions around kit-bashing Aust...

Yes - camels and war elephants both seem to come up in topics about cavalry a lot, and as far as I know, Reaper is one of the few (if not only) manufacturers out there making either war elephants (...

@Yronimos Whateley I enjoyed it. The core box is a great value. You get a rule book, a play mat, 2 ships and 2 sets of sailors for like $120. I bought it just for some cool minis, but now plan to s...

It does look like it would have been fun for post-war off-roading, too - I imagine the people who got hold of surplus examples after the war must have really enjoyed it, or at least put them to har...

Thank you!  Good to know.  Looks like it was a great Kickstarter!

@Yronimos Whateley the kickstarter is over. The pledge manager is still open though so they may still be allowing late backers.

I noticed Russian and Spanish Napoleonic sets are on the WGA release schedule.  A "Command Set" for those armies should surely include a Priest.  I think you literally cannot have too muc...

Oh, great catch, Grumpy! :)  I think I could get hooked on these fictional training scenarios. "Planners... also realized that training examples for plans must accommodate the political fallo...

The Kettenkrad was for logistics and could fufill just about every role that a jeep did (light tow, transport, casevac) but with far better off road mobility.

I'm a civilian and several inches over 6' tall, but in my limited experience, even larger tanks seem outlandishly crowded and cramped to me.  Those tiny tanks would make me look like the carto...

@Yronimos Whateley Some great suggestions. I agree with regards to basing stuff more on modern weapons rather than WW2 ones.

@david phillips What are you talking about? Are you confusing the Raumjäger with the Einherjar (Viking symbols)? Why would you load a cannon with axe heads in a sci-fi setting?

I've bought a few sprues of Bolt Action weapons for various projects and those are excellent, but hadn't seen the figures themselves until this week, and now that i've seen Bolt Action miniatures, ...

Great choices!  And if that stuff were made as a Raumjager expansion, I'm sure I wouldn't be the only one buying the kit just for the chance of using the bits with cannon Fodder, Colonial Mari...

@Miyuso - check out what @David Musgrave has done with halfling war-balloons (link), what @Mac Coxhead has done with Dark Age Irish head-swaps onto viking halflings (link), and what @Grumpy Gnome ...

That soldier in the middle could be North African or mixed race mulatto, but also keep in mind that the French referred to all Sub- Saharan Afican troops from their colonies as 'Senegalese.'

Glad to hear that you are working this out. I am very eager to buy your Italian WW2 boxes as I need Breda machine gun crews to replace the 28mm Warlord Games 'Bolt Action' crews that I wasted money...

I have always been interested in the Eastern Front, so I'd love to see Austro-Hungarian,  Serb, and Russian troops. 

Since I  play Saga, a box of 16 would be ideal. This should include 8 in mail and 8 without mail, and all figures should have javelins as an option. 

Or one body a civilian/"exploring officer"?

@Yronimos Whateley right on I think a modern Carl Gustav inspired recoilless rifle would be pretty badass as well.

Exactly so, @Craig Baker - that's what I'm talking about! :) That fits the Raumjager prfectly, from what I've seen of their uniforms and gear!

All the better for historical gamers, then! Coming from a pulp/sci-fi/fantasy perspective, I'm really liking the look of these guys just for that weird retro-futurism-meets-dark-ages schizo-tech a...

Or one body a female trooper.  Alt history that. 

Maybe one body a camp follower.

So I'm in in the Silver Bayonet craze too.  But I'm proposing dual use "Command Sets." Now the "traditional" way to build a Napoleonic gaming army is to build regiments with plastics and ofte...

Fantastic!  I think I rememeber the newsletter mentioning the box printing being an issue now that you've jogged my memory. It's perfectly understandable:  sounds like you're doing some...

I wonder, is the Kickstarter still running?  My budget is objecting, but I might want to check that out - they all sound useful to me, except possibly the cavalry. 

I think the jumpsuits also make for great uniforms for Colonial Marine pilots and drivers, maintenance and support personnel, and colonist militia and so on.  Definitely a versatile set - the ...

Seems to me like the Raumjager do have a more modern-futuristic look to them than the standard WWII fare - I've not seen them close-up yet, but I believe they're even armed with rifles that look su...

@Yronimos Whateley There are a few companies out there who have really figured MDF out.  As far as the material's name, I'm in America, and that's all I e ever seen it as.  It's not *as* ...
