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 Also, after it had been superseded as a frontline anti...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.

Death Fields prone sniper.... Something along these lines:

An neat idea from the FEB 23 issue of Wargames Illustrated that might work nicely with the upcoming WGA "French Archeologist/Nazis":
A brilliant article. Now that is the kind of informative transparency I was talking about. It helps people better understand the process and motivations of WGA. Great stuff. 👍
@Bill Thomas those heads I mentioned above will help ( e.g. https://anvilindustry.co.uk/exo-lord-cyclops-automata-heads-3), I too will dump the broken barrel weapon arms. Note that Anvil have a sy...
Arms tossing an Infantry portable UAV into the air. A small UAV. (Although perhaps less combat Fleshlight looking than this one). Arms with controller. Feed display. Maybe in a chest ...
@Sean Tighe I think its fair to say Wargames Atlantic 'made their bones' doing the unexpected, so to speak. Nothing should come as too surprising an addition to their ranges, and this strikes me as...
The whole issue is heavy on Wargames Atlantic content: https://wargamesatlantic.com/community/xenforum/topic/58250/02-hundred-hours?page=2
Wargames Illustrated Issue 422 February 2023: Has a nice article on the new 02 Hundred Hours Partisan Resistance Cell. Excerpts:
A plastic 7.62cm Infanterie Geschutze for the WW1 range to compliment the German Infantry would be neat. https://wargamesatlantic.com/community/xenforum/topic/78479/we-need-to-talk-about-artil...
The most recent issue of Wargames Illustrated (Issue 422 February 2023): Features an interview with @Hudson Adams on Wargames Illustrated Digital:
@Grumpy Gnome That must have been a cool project. It must have taken a General Officer signature to authorize the work/use for civilian events. Good on him.
@Sean Tighe @Paul Mitting If there's a pattern to Wargames Atlantic's releases it's that there is no pattern. @Sean Tighe Your suggestions would have tied in with existing sets bette...
@JTam I was speaking of Star Wars, in either Legends and Clone Wars there are a lot of vehicles with exposed gunners.
The Pak36, also if obsolete in 1940, served 'til the end of the war, expecially in rear echelon's troops, as primary weapon of captured vehicles, such as chenillettes or bren carriers, also for sup...
Very well done, I was just looking for alternate heads for Stargrave, and Pig Iron's heads are ideal for conversions.
Effectively Italy's wheeled vehicles were well done, such as the good Autoblinda Ab40/41, contrary to tanks, less than stellar, and the Sahariana performed well in NA. Naturally, given the awful s...
I think most Punk genres fall heavily into the fantasy setting anyway. In fact the power sources for most artifacts in these stories tend to be semi-magical or use fantastical means of generating t...
@Mark Dewis And also by sentries, expecially in forward posts.
Although it would be a welcome kit for WW2 gamers, it seems unrelated to the other releases so far. I would have thought either Death Fields artillery as a better choice for their efforts. Unless t...
@Andreas Mayrhofer wow! Those are looking superb 😍
@Geoff Maybury for you my friend, of course... when I get the whole deal complete I will make a picture post specifically, but for now here's my "Military Stalker" crew...
@Dennis Horne thanks for that, very much appreciated and I'm pleased to say that my little order has now arrived :) @Geoff Maybury hurrah 😂 It appears they have included some extra bodies in both ...
@Brian Van De Walker What Mark said.
Ooooooh, I want those arms. Like, literally just the arms, piles of them, maybe with slight variations. Empty hands are so hard to find, even more so on left arms that don't just hang and swing whi...
@JTam Years ago I restored a PAK 36 with another serving soldier at Fort Polk, Louisiana after he got me into WW2 re-enacting. I seem to recall it officially belonged to Fort Polk but he got ...
Another curious choice that doesn't really fit with their current range? A PaK 40 for the Lehr, a 20 mm or 37mm AA gun for their Sentries?
Results are now up on the main page.
@JTam thanks mate. I used System Commando heads from Pig Iron productions and the pouches are from the old dreamforge command upgrade box
At least one German heavy weapon is coming in plastic! Sneak Peak from 17 FEB 23:
The Wargames Atlantic Friday Email Sneak Peak is: Appears to be a German light antitank gun. Probably a 3.7 Pak 36. (Compare gun shields). PLASTIC 28mm German heavy weapons would be amazi...
@Benjamin Hayward Thanks for the pictures!
@Andreas Mayrhofer Looks good! Where are the heads from? Where are the stock mag bandoliers from? Thanks!
Well, well, well... Sneak Peak 17 FEB 23: Plastic! Looks like a German 37mm antitank gun. It would be amazing to get some 28mm German heavy weapons in plastic. &nbs...
@Caratacus I don't think you have to be Norse to use the name and even if you are there's no obligation to use early medieval motifs. There's a Honda Motorcycle, an American bomber prototype and at...
Should be a very flexible kit. Suitable for a wide range of games.
Very cool. Simple but effective paint jobs.
Well I personally can't stand those shameless attempts to cash-in on the surge in popularity of Sisters of Battle. Another pointless waste of WA's time and effort, and again it's a good job these a...
