I thought I'd add my 2 pence worth by suggesting WW1 Red Cross dogs of all troop categories. British, French, German and American and here are some pictures for the forum's pleasure.
The Squad is assembled and primed. Ready to slap some paint on
@Steven StGeorges yeah, i know etsy exist. i was just taking it as a challenege to think of a fix for people who aren't looking to spend extra $$ ontop of an already excessively expensive kit. thi...
my thoughts:, numbered from left to right:#1 doesn't really look like a missile launcher to me. it has too many 'gun' type features, and honestly looks more like some sort of shoulder fired support...
@Paul Mitting It seems ALL early users were intentionally sent broken scrap weapons and what I have called MK1 figures (possibly also with what I have called nanoheads). Hold fire on using those f...
Time to revive a dead thread!I reached out directly through the Dreamforge Blog and asked if the lore was still available anywhere, and suggested with the Valkir on their way, we're all gonna be pr...
@Eric Even I used the acessory set recently and it worked fine with the WA Stormtroopers.
I reached out and asked if the accessory sets are compatible with the new sculpts. Here's his reply:"Yes and no... the heads may look a tad oversized, the arms will be a mixed bag, depending on wha...
Dogger had some fine beasts wandering in the past.
@Caratacus or these gems.
@Caratacus With windows of the past mentioned might be nice to see plastic of some of these from ancient Dogger
Exactly one and all and the best thing is not all items are coppy right so Zombies, Lore, and Celtic Myth can be used as wish. We could get in our WW1 requests and play duel real and Wierd.
@JTam @Steven StGeorges Skiitari weapons woul'd be cool in deed. But as mentioned by JTam, cost per model would climb in serious heights. I'll stick with the Cadian rifles and try to do the trick w...
Drones would be very difficult to shield from EMP, they had to be very light, on the contrary an AFV/IFV could be shielded against EMPs thanks to their sturdy build. Naturally this depends by the ...
@Battle Specter The problem is that snipers are trained to be lethal, there's a reason exist (well, there was) a dedicated training for them, so they can be "educated" about every trick of the job....
@JTam These figures are really incredible, Anvil industry makes some in its regiments range, naturally its possible converting all the WGA plastic sets, when the WWI british will arrive it will be ...
There are a lot of opportunities for such a story, imagine merging all these supposed "superstitions" & myths in one terrible, huge problem for every nation involved. Add also a bit of Lovecraf...
@JTam there are. The batalion level comes with them. I think they were released in a previous campaign.
This chap has created some excellent ideas for Weird War 1, and it'd be great if some of this was incorporated into 'A War Transformed': https://www.deviantart.com/dewitteillustration/gallery/7519...
I'm certainly interested in these rules - they have a lot of potential! Trenchpunk units with a Medieval and/or Ancient feel? Yes please! Druids and creatures from Celtic Paganism fighting alongs...
More than just Zombies, A War Transformed has a huge amount of model potential for Pagan priests and creatures from Celtic, Teutonic and Old English folk mythology, even Wicca, as these old religio...
Motar with a tablet seems less like a traditional mortar to me and more like a tube launched guided loitering munition system, i.e. a Switchblade suicide drone. Given this is meant to be a more fut...
@JTam those top guys are pure Bollywood
This is adorable: But is there no Halfling archers? WTF?
@Steven StGeorges Skiitari weapons would certainly have a more master crafted heirloom weapons look that is fitting for the Vostroyns. But that would add even more cost to the project....
@Mark Dewis "Even lasers recoil." That's all I said. Yes, the recoil of a laser is stupid low, but it's still present- that's all I was getting at. And I'm reasonably certain that to make them effe...
@JTam @Andreas Mayrhofer Mmm the weapons are not enough... mmm ... retrosteampunk when compared with Vostroyans models and Blanche's drawings... Maybe you should look for some Skiitari Vangu...
@Battle Specter recoil, yes. Significant recoil, especially for a vehicle mounted weapon? No. A 300 megawatt laser produces around one newton of recoil.
There are counters to EMPs. The most basic is to put your electronics in a Faraday cage (i.e. a foil box). Or ruggedise your critical circuits at the design level. I think you can count on m...
I would like to see figures along this line, especially if they were useable in the more inter-war Pulp style games I enjoy.
@Pierre Lerdou-Udoy Exactly! We don't need pin-up girl versions of the uniforms or figures, but changing them enough to highlight that the mini is female would be ideal.
We could end up with a scenario where drones are so common and dangerous that most forces resort to battlefield EMP devices to stop the swarms of attackers. This then brings back the use of older, ...
The difference in morphology requires adaptation of parade and tradition uniforms (shoulders, chest, hips...) : women's tunics tend to be a little looser in the chest and tighter in the waist. No ...
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/ttcombatundead/gnolls-and-fantasy-friends/description Saw this. Lots of stuff, Ogres, dwarves, desert elves, desert humans, Halflings, Orcs, Gnolls, etc... But...
I finally got my Only Games order in the post yesterday, which included my set of 4 Robots. Looks like I got sent the earlier midget sized versions as well, the overall figures barely reaching the ...
@Geoff Maybury That truck is pretty sweet, and based off a Japanese truck. (LINK) Not sure if anyone got the 1/56 version DG made. @Alessio De Carolis Dropping snipers is a dumb move. I'm hoping ...
@Paul Mitting Yeah, the more I watch of the Ukranian conflict, and think about how that applies moving forward, I can see armored vehicles (and to an extent aerial vehicles) getting hit hard and be...
Scouts Out makes some great STLs that fit the weird war WW1 vibe pretty well:
WW1 Combatant Zombies would be awesome for this game as well as many others. That would be my first pick.
@Dennis Horne My PM`s are a mess I can rarly acexs them and when I do Ive multiple of the same and when I PM someone they get 10/ 12. so sadly I seldem bother it does`nt allways tell me I`ve got on...
In the month of August Ossprey Games is bringing out a new game, called "A War Transformed", (See my post in general) This game is a Wierd War One game set on Doggerland returned to the chanal. It ...
@JTam Have to wait till we get an inside look, but I couldn`t agree with you more. A few more pages of "Fluff" woud be the icing on the cake for many productions, but particullary our broken ...
@Alessio De Carolis These were mostly ideas for STLs. But of course plastic would be better. The RSI paratroopers also saw a lot of hard combat. (Above photo supposedly taken a...
@JTam Effectively, at least for some, an italian paras' sprue would be interesting, they'd the only real pre-'43 modern italian uniform, and were intended to attack Malta, but were instead send in ...
