@JTam That was poorly worded. Bodies. I meant bodies.

@Mike Henthorne If you read the initial announcment of atlantic digital, Iron core, reptilian overlords, etc. All the outsource program/partnership lines are not included in plans for digital. If M...
During the late 80’s and 90’s I recall carrying a protective mask much of the time, even at points I was not wearing LBE... but having access to a MOPP suit only at certain times, with ...
@JTam &@Battle Specter Who is Jennifer Laurence / JenLaw and how did she pave the way for these characters? Do you guys mean the actor Jennifer Lawrence? I am confused how she could ...
@JTam something like that. Buy I'd prefer to think of it as a "space saving device."
@JTam well, obviously JenLaw was a trend setter. Characters like Ripley and Vasquez and Connor would never have been popular without her massive influence.
Reptilemen heads (plenty of spares there) on Spacenam. Someone already did a test run on the Facebook group, though he used a Stargrave head.
@JTam pretty much. yes the different AK generations have distinctive features IRL. but by the time you shrink them down to 28mm semi-heroic scale, most of those differences vanish or become minor s...
Ok. This is slightly cheating. But what if you already own the 0200 Starter Set: And then get this newly offered expansion: Well then, you got a 500 point Bolt Action army. ...
@Battle Specter Just a few capabilities jammed into one chassis then ;)
@Battle Specter Depending on when/if you could find one, I might be interested in the other bits. I could certainly use them. xD Seeing as I just shelled out for these it really depends on the timing.
@Battle Specter A Squad of Order Hospitallers would be bada*s and you could pretty much just run them as a regular Imperial Guard squad and slot them into any Imperial force. I ...
@Battle Specter Everybody likes Vasquez. Hard as woodpecker lips. Although I have it on good authority that Jennifer Laurence paved the way for her.
I think some conversion parts COULD make Cannon Fodder look a lot like this:
@Battle Specter I mean less face facts. Anything sci-fi that can be used for 40K will outsell something that is sci-fi and can't by a factor of about 50. And it's not much...
@Grumpy Gnome The joke was they changed "NBC" to "CBRN" as they got tired of the "NBC stands for Nobody Cares" jibes.
@Grumpy Gnome You would wear face paint for 30 days straight... And when you came out of the field your eyebrows would still be green for 3 days after.
I grew to absolutely loathe facepaint as the years went on. The priority of NBC may have receded in the War on Terror period but I suspect it will be returning, like the facepaint, with near peer c...
Ok... This plus This. Elite Scifi Imperial Guard Units. Use the picklehaub themed helmets and lasguns. What are some other kitbash ideas you think would look dope. I wanna see them.
@JTam I can't think of a single person who's seen that movie that didn't like Vasquez. How they balanced females with attitude in that movie was amazing. And, yes. Sentry guns would be great- but ...
@JTam They'd work, but I have a differnt idea in mind. For starters, I'm trying to move away from a WWII German aesthetic. Also, I envision these guys having some form of grav transport. Something ...
Great ideas. I advocated for a "Heavy Support" theme, and fleshing out existing forces here: https://wargamesatlantic.com/community/xenforum/topic/85084/monthly-themes For Ooh-Rah would lik...
@JTam MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! Nurses of destruction!!!

@Battle Specter File off Cross on breast, apply double headed eagle decal?
@Grumpy Gnome Good point on missing a kevlar band. Strange they missed that when they got so much else right. I suppose you could paint it on. It's funny, when I give a block on...
@Grumpy Gnome Sonic electronic ball busters and pointy sticks. ;) Also- readin the "500 pt army from a single WGA box" thread got me thinking. What about "modern/scifi" weapons for the WWII and WW...

@JTam I had missed that the thread had continued, sorry, I am up to speed now. Sure, that booger hook can reflect poorly disciplined troops... we talked about it before and I am much more upt...
I think it's been mentioned before- I think the Digital arena would be a great place to put an accesory set for the various boxed sets in the Deathfields genre. To be more direct, I'd like to see ...
@JTam I do not recall ever losing my helmet band... I missed this thread continuing, so my apologies for the late reply. And yes@Mark Dewis I quite agree with@JTam . My memory is ...
@JTam You know... That would make an interesting force of Faux Gaurd...
@Mike Henthorne Agreed. I think a release of the heavy weapons set, some pouches (those Jager left legs), and maybe some arms or a commander would be dope.
So, I'm kid of curious how everyone is organizing their units. Are you building a fighting force of extraordinary magnitude formed in the traditions of your ancestors? Are you creating an unstoppab...
@Nanashi Anon We talked a bit about AK47/AKM/AK74 muzzle devices here: https://wargamesatlantic.com/community/xenforum/topic/84943/multiple-warsaw-pact-nations-combi-kit But I wouldn't rea...
@Grumpy Gnome Maybe he's actively shooting? Regardless adds to the rabble vibe. Or...TRAITOR vibe.....
As for the trooper with what looks like an AK... that trigger discipline, or rather lack thereof, is going to end in tears at some point.
@JTam This goes back in time a bit, so excuse me for the longer explanation. In 2001 when I went through boot camp, the Marines still did the KD course of fire followed by a "field fire" portion th...
@Mithril2098 They would indeed, stick some Soviet helmets heads on and you have the Reds, stick some WW2 German heads on and you have the Reich etc. I'm hoping for gasmask heads to round these out...
the previews look to be made from the same image just chopped. they spliced together super easy. whatever they end up being, the mix of worn out clothes and russian style weapons means they'll...
If you're looking for a view on how how mismanged Afghanistan was instead of an after action report, I think "Warrior Diplomat" was an interesting read for anecdotes since the author had the unusua...
The muzzle device on the AK looking thing is based on an AK-74 break, something only really seen in Russia, East Germany, Poland, and Romania (with a few others that are mostly sporting stuff). Guy...
Slowing down to catch up and then speed up... any slow down is going to cause some talking online. Good PR and community engagement coukd help mitigate any ensuing drama as there will certain...
What makes that a "Groucho" pose?
The SAS North Western Europe selector also lets you take Maquis squads. So you could do a cool army up with the WGA SAS/Commando and Partisans (1) box.
Sneak peak from 3 FEB 23; For reference the sneak peak from last Friday: Huh. The bracers, or giant turn backs on the sleeve look a little weird. I don't really get ...
@Mark Dewis It's probably just cavalry or cannons, that is the safe bet. plus I vaguly recall them mentioning cavalry for this.
@Mark Dewis So commonwealth is either Manga Japanese miltary in space or a Manga style generic human space force (either would be cool and I wouldn't pass up🤑) while the republic is either sc...
@Mark Dewis Just caught this, thats an interesting snippet, certainly! Gives a little more insight, and some hope that maybe Mark will want to be a little more public-facing again as the range pick...
@Lord Marcus I am not talking about plastic kits, I mean for the Digital side. Only a few months into it and we see so many variations on the plastic kits, it would just be cool to see something to...
