@Brian Van De Walker Oh, I didn't suggest they don't, but earlier it was much more in the face. IDK about current books, but presentation of Imperial Guard is pushed into more honest soldiery work ...

Ahhh m, bummer. I don't have a Facebook. I will consider it for this though. Thanks!
Who knew there was a place in the admin where posts were "waiting for approval" Not THIS guy. But now I do. And now there are about 20+ posts from the last year that are posted up because I had no ...
Since last month I've come across a few more tidbits of information.From this preview of the rulebook for Heiho, a Sengoku Japan mass-battle game with a note from Wargames Atlantic: 'Our Samurai r...
Welcome Joseph! There's a Facebook group for the game too that has a lot of info if you're on there.
I haven't put mine in bases just yet, but with other small scale guys you may have to shave the strip down a little to fit. Or you can kinda tilt the strip a little. It doesn't make for neat ranks ...
Hi folks! I am super stoked for this scale and game when it comes out. I am trying to rope a few friends in as well. I am a slow painter and I would really like to build up a solid core of orcs (an...
Hello, Tim's my name, Twitch and YouTube are my game (not really but it rhymes) 50 years old, doing streaming and videos on various hobby related topics. Some might know me or ...
This is a bit of a long shot, but I might pick some up, mix them with conquistador crossbows/cities of sigmar bits, and try to build Malazans. It would probably be a hell of a project, but I figure...
@Brian Van De Walker unhinged tangent time: in one of my darkest moments, I considered getting the victrix unarmored celts to fulfill my shirtlessness fix. They're roughly 40$ for a pack of 60, wit...
@Brian Van De Walker @Brian Van De Walker you are totally right, I had a fever and my brain stopped working and I thought napoleonic gamers would want, like region-specific wagon wheels. They don't...
@Red Bee Thanks! We'll have some 3D printable CE trackers, wound tracker, and some other things available soon for you guys to help you get closer to what the real experience of the game will be too.
Can captains boost their own CE?
@timbus the thirteenth actually some of the best "fantasy bits" are in historical kits (loose crossbows, sheathed swords, etc.), and they generally have more spare bits (I literally buy Warlord's B...
@timbus the thirteenth true and the historical kits tend to be better deals.
@Drangir hmmm, I kinda of got that impression from the rule books and wikis actually. Plus the main plastic kits for the guard felt like soveits in space for some reason (tanker heads in part...
Well, the big one I have heard asks for on and off in the past is camels, dogs have been asked for as well, Asian elephants might be good too. A general wild life set or 3 for diffrent climets migh...
Genuinely curious to see what kinds of general accoutrements people want/have been looking for. I'm talking about kits like horses, skulls, the new markets & barricades kit, etc. Me pers...
As a kitbasher, I'd go crazy for a sprue like this. I got a box of ogres a while back that just has a bunch of interestingly shaped barrels, pouches, bits of meat etc and they've ended up in ...
@Mithril2098 im specifically talking about fantasy barbarians, who have a couple different archetypes. The main issue I'm talking about is that all 'generic fantasy barbarian' models lean towards a...
Dawn of War definitely gave more "intimidated conscripts thrown at the enemy under death threat" than today's more regular military. Commissars didn't help distancing from that XD
@Michael Downs if the base is plastic yes plastic glue, if its wood or resin no, use glue master or some other super glue.
@Sir Nobody hmm, well fair enough. TBH the whole Imperuim in WH40k always came across to me as being more a "soviet union in space" at least when it came to the guard.
@Mithril2098 Connan types in speedo loin cloths.
Just wanted to say I'm beyond excited about this and cannot wait to see it finalized. I'm going to buy several boxes.
Define barbarian? because that's a term that applies to a pretty wide catagory. the original meaning was "anyone who doesn't speak greek", later it became "anyone who isn't us", and has been applie...
Finally got a game in, and I can officially say: I really like this game. I was worried about the factions being a bit lopsided. On paper the faction abilities of Ruamjager seemed to be really pot...
I have been hunting for decent barbarian models recently for a warcry project, and noticed a massive gap in available plastic models. I'm a huge Conan fan, so my image of a barbarian is pretty simp...
Pg 35, melee force back table: "No wounds - Hand to HandIn hand-to-hand combat, if neither side inflicted any casualties, the attacking Team Member is Forced Back by 1”. The defender does no...
Gearing up to give it a play (using spacenam in place of grognards, stronger melee fits well enough, verses a mix of raumjaeger and eisenkern). While building, it seems that the automatic rifle, an...
First thoughts: This feels like a very well thought out game I really love the Combat Effectiveness system. That's probably the best moral mechanic I've seen in table top. I also love being able...
@Brian Van De Walker I've heard that and as I said I don't see it, I mean Raumjeagar yes, absolutly but ever since I first encountered the SL I thought "Warsaw Pact mechanized infantry" I me...
@Sir Nobody The Raumjeagar and steel legion are based on the same German paratroopers, thats why everyone says that.
My broken tin penny; Grognards: Helmets + mask= Death Korps. The kepi would fit Mordians, bearskins the Vostroyans and the chako a custom fuedal world or "blue blood" regiment. Plus as pointed out...
Found some WA minis in my roleplay box, namely some picts (served as bandits or barbarians), halflings and undead.
What do you all think of the combat effectiveness mechanic? To me it seems rather intuitive, easy to keep track of with the either a D10 or the upcoming tracker, and I like how the fighter cards a...
Feel free to use this forum area as a place to discuss the rules, ask questions, etc. We'll try to monitor as best we can.
@Yronimos Whateley Bronze Age "tank or truck" would be chariots😅. Spikes would work, skulls not so much and honestly gothic grimdark greeblies are not really that hard or pricey to get...
@Mithril2098 Actually the Grognards cover both Deathcorps and Vostroyan Firstborn, as well as genric French themed IG. The Raumjeager do work best as Steel Legion but you can also use them as Cadi...
I am looking for play testers for my rule set Coldblooded Honor. It a game of Lizardmen fighting ritual duals with guns, spears, swords and magic. If you're interested take a look and please leave ...
@Joel Crawford Bro the fans on his discord are not really a controlable aspect of WA's marketing, heck they aren't even a controlable aspect of RO's marketing and of course they are nasty, I mean w...
None actually with how fast he abandoned Spacenam without the promised Heavy Weapons and Command Squads. I no longer trust RO to finish a line of models without pulling another oooo shiney object. ...
Good question: I'm not entirely sure! 48 warriors in a box can theoretically make up a whole army for Lion Rampant. In my case, I'm mulling over separating the box between several different project...
@carol loo yeah its been out for awhile.
@Yronimos Whateley hmm, nah, while you are right about mixing "scales" (though 1/35 model weapons look pretty dang good on historical scale figures😉), given the growing number of fantasy and SciFi ...
Cannon Fodder II (female cannon fodder) has been available from the Wargames Atlantic online shop (link) for quite a while now, several months or even a couple years now. If you like the two Canno...
So, I sent some stuff on kits I'd like to see from WGA to them, and I got the reply that they thought they were interesting, but better suited for the forums to ask to raise interest for 'em. So, I...
Brian's answer is pretty much on target with my experience, if it helps. In INTENT, I thinkj the "Heroic" scale is meant to be easier to see as a unique Player-Character personality (hero) on an R...
@Drangir I hear many people say heroic "easier to convert and paint", but from personal experiences over the years, I feel these folks are either lying to themselves or mistaking "subject matter" w...
