@JTam WA Late Romans and Goths, as well as the WA Ogres and Dark Age Irish.
@JTam Have you not seen the other GW traitor guard, the Blooded? Only duplicates from the BF set is the traitor ogyrn and commissar, all other sculpts are new.
Says it under the description on every set's page on the website, along with the box artist.
This seems mean-spirited. I don't get to play as much as I would like, but I'm rather fond of my 40k army, GW does some of the best models around, not everything can be a hit, and not everything is...
'Nest' seems appropriate, though if I was joking I'd say 'a Problem'.
@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!
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, ...
@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...
@Arron Robertson Mark will be shipping them himself, I don't believe there should be any problem with that.
I'll buy anything Eisenkern, as time and availability allow.
@Battle Specter Oh, gotcha! I look forward to the comparison. There are still a few plastic Leviathans out there that I might have some interest in, and worst comes to worst I think they'll be comi...
I believe they're called 'vulcan cannons', and the melee are mauler claws. Also, I didn't realize the Leviathans were Armiger-sized, I'd pictured them as Questor-scale.
Its incredibly heartening to see Mark 'back in action' so to speak, and, well, talking again! He also noted he will continue printing on-demand as the listing goes up, so the Dreamforge page is the...
Like everyone, I feel like the main problem is you treating them like some kind of old-school metal/resin miniatures. ;) They don't require washing, and plastic glue is what you want to use for pla...
I'm doing Eisenkern strictly as a 'project build', as I already have an army I quite enjoy for 40k. (love me some Deathguard) So, my plan is really just to build and paint them as a sort of 'future...
@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.
@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...
@Frank Reischmann In fairness, I don't believe WGA ever gave the november date, that was an assumption on many people's part. They were teased on a newletter in Dec, but thats the most recent infor...
@Grumpy Gnome Its likely they still exist as a business with no assets, just a LLC.
@Mark Dewis Actually, the Dreamforge logo IS on the Eisenkern boxes. The symbol right news to the word 'Iron-Core' on the front is the 'DFG' logo.
@Grumpy Gnome Its exclusively old surplus, from what I can see. None of the new stuff, must be trying to make room.
@JTam Yeah, its a nice bit of kit! I got it from dreamforge themselves on ebay. Should make good command for a modest Company, though I may leave the snipers unbuilt in favor of the new Stormtroope...
Figured I'd post here, got some dreamforge kits to ensure I've got a proper command. Hoping to eventually put together an entire company with full command by the time it's all said and done. I feel...
As a 40k guy, I'm used to a little size difference, even within armies, so I'm not bothered. Picked up an Eisenkern command squad for my Company command structure and figured it will just make it m...
Wasn't this a different thread earlier today?.. Pretty sure you had an existing thread where people posted in regards to this.
@Hudson Adams I figured that was the case now, from everything that had been said.
Some rugged, less human robots, like the Iron-Core Mules, would be welcome. Machine guns with legs and little else.
@JTam Thats what I've also though. An additional, optional leg rather than something being missing. Just requires some converting. Either way, its Mark's mold.
@Grumpy Gnome Yes, I believe you're correct. Especially now that production is in the US they're in direct control of it, whilst boxes are printed elsewhere.
I believe this is usual. Every review I've seen, some of them contemporary to the sets release, mention these legs, as well as being unsure what to do with them.
@Battle Specter The idea of the Republic representing a sort of Pre-American (as we know it today) Republic is an interesting though. Very remenescent of the US Pre-1870. As for the Leviathans, the...
@Brian Van De Walker I hadn't considered other non-human factions besides the Shadowkesh and possibly the Dhar-Hazier. Something about the universe screamed Humano-centric to me. Perhaps you're rig...
@Caratacus The avian connection was made by Mark Mondragon, in some of the old documents. I can certainly see the 'birdlike' aspects more in the feral models more than the, I'm not sure what you'd ...
@Caratacus I hadn't considered Roman, and had given French only a passing though. Interesting!
@JTam Good catch! I remember seeing that one awhile back, as well as the render.
@Caratacus Shadowkesh, from my research, seem to be the only non-Eisenkern faction that received any plastic treatment, albiet only in Kickstarter fufillment boxes. :)
Thought it might be interesting to sort of compile what little we know about the factions in this universe, as well as speculate a bit on what can be inferred by the old map. Eisenkern E...
Hello! Been trolling the forum without an account for awhile, but I plan on starting some Eisenkern projects this year and figured I would post them here when I do. :) I'm mainly a 40k hobbyist (D...
