@Paul Mitting @Mark Dewis Try Black Cat Bases they do a range of left and right metal hands full of lovely items from Torches to guns. They got J-Tams spirit up when I showed him.

@Grumpy Gnome Hi pal, love those Quar.

@Bill Thomas Very nice Bill, when you can, if time is permiting, please post some scenery pictures of the Zona Alpha, as well, to see them in all there glory.

@Colin Brinkley so can carbide steel saw blades. Don't be distracted by how useful lasers are at cutting MDF and mild steel. They are not especially better than kinetic penetrators vs any serious a...

Alien nun.

Theonfer I look at this, the more I like it. Is it an owl, grasshopper, cephalopod, or an alien? It could be painted as wood, leather, wood or chitin and it would look suitably creepy. It's just th...

@Lord Marcus  Images not showing.

I think that for an Anti-Grav vehicle a short barrel gun/howitzer should be more apt, it don't unbalance the hull, and it's easier to point & fire, expecially in urban combat. After all its ma...

@Brian Van De Walker About Philippines' monsters, there's on Netflix a fantasy/horror serie, "Trese", it's set in modern times, but its roots are on ancient folklore. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki...

@Colin Brinkley to be honest, It's simply black Army painter Speedpaint over a zenithal primer

@Andreas Mayrhofer I have to ask, whats your recipe for the gunmetal? I love the look of the black on those rifles.

@Mark Dewis I feel like high-energy lasers, especially in a Sci-Fi sense, are more than capable of melting armor plating. Lasers we have NOW can cut metal.

@JTam I can't believe I hadn't considered explosives for the assault cannon, makes a lot of sense. Thanks for that!

@JTam lasers aren't really armour piecing, though. 

Comrade Axel, you do well to recall that "Iberians" and "Germans" went hand in hand toward these unknown horizons... with the Habsburg for lords and masters.

Hello, Fellows all around the World. I know very well that we, Frenchmen, have a reputation for always grumbling, grinning and bitching (toujours grogner, rouspéter et râler). How to ...

@Lord Marcus  Warrior Priest Ogre is legit.

@JTam @Hudson Adams Thank you for the post and scan! I know it might be weird, but the extra effort you invested in the Wargames Illustrated interview really paid off. The part of your own experi...

@Bill Thomas Looking good Bill!

@Colin Brinkley  I would guess: Assault Gun:  Heavy high explosive.  Large blast radius.  Limited armor piercing capabilities. Antitank Gun:  Good armor piercing.  ...

Personal Firepower for the German WW1 Infantry: MP18 Lugers with snail drums.

@Grumpy Gnome that answer tells me you never read the actual official statement from the company as it has a LOT more info in one place than the little interview.  Also I saw your posts ...

@Hudson Adams Still good for people to read it in such a concise manner. There is plenty of evidence of people concerned about the STLs. Yes the blog posts have helped, as have forum posts. Bu...

@JTam for Afghanistan even Martini-Henry rifles are not unheard of. Plenty of SMLEs as well as No.4's; for the most part those rifles were obtained between the 1840's and the 1940's. Number 4 rifle...

Firstly, just to tie this in, obviously the StuG is a natural ally to WGA Eisenkern on the battlefield. That being said, I wanted to discuss the weapons they come with and their uses, as I see it, ...

SMLE: SMLE on the WGA WW1 British Infantry: No 4 MK I: No 4 MK I on SAS/Commando sprue:    

@Mark Dewis  Plenty of SMLEs available soon from the WW1 British and WW2 Early War British kit as you said. But if you want to bash it, you don't have to wait.  The Enfield rifle in pic...

@Grumpy Gnome  I don't play RPGs, but that looks unique and fun.

SMLE arms won't be in short supply soon... 😉 I could go some Lee-Metfords and early Lee-Enfields, and their carbine versions though.

Rubicon do already produce it in 28mm plastic - but it does line up with the Italians, and with possible future Chinese and Early WW2 Germany. Also, after it had been superseded as a frontline anti...

As a long range recce vehicle, the numbers seem about right. The LRDG it was mostly used to counter only operated a few hundred trucks and jeeps.
