@Drangir The Friday email is what lead to my reviving a zombie thread! I'm super stoked for them. I'll check the sneak peeks as well in case I missed something.

FINALLY! We get to see the sneakiest of peaks with frame positioning!Please let these come out before the end of the year. I've been waiting to be able to get these in real bulk since 2013. (Check...
While I'm ranting, female heads for the rest of the sci-fi range would be awesome 3D printed. Raumjager, Grognards, Ooh-Rah, and Bulldogs would also be enriched with some female heads.Everybody lik...
Something just struck me today that would be super useful. A heads pack.I bought a set of the generic #27 head from the Ooh-Rah frame to use on Raumjagers bodies, as they are one of the few head op...
I want to give a specific shoutout to Scalehobbyist, a web store out of New Hampshire with absurdly good pricing on kits and paints. They are my go-to for most of my non-wargaming-vehicles-for-conv...
As a general update regarding 3D printers: Consider buying a used printer, especially if you have a friend who knows what they are doing already. I picked up a 3-pack of used Ender 3's for $150 to ...
I recently joined the MMF tribe (Yay Centurion!) and it struck me that there's a lot of cross compatibility that would be really cool to see released at 3D print files. Specifically I'd love to se...
Those look really good! Huh, I'd not even considered Pig Iron. Time to give them another look.
@Doctor Tyrannosaur I've been buying Anvil for years, but the heads are a bit too chonky for Iron Core.Mad Robot is viable. I think he has options to resize heads, so I could downscale them a bit.
No response yet, but if I hear back I'll post it here.I'm going to try some 3D printed heads from across Cults3D and MyMiniFactory to see what works. Some downscaling will likely be required as the...
Dropped Mark a message through the Dreamforge Games site. I'll update if he responds.
@Brian Van De Walker Huh, I'll look for that. I asked him if he'd sell STLs in the past but never heard back.
I guess while I have a thread for it, I think it would be kinda cool to have a digital release of varient helmets for the Iron Core range. Would probably involve discussions with Mark, but it would...
@Brian Van De Walker I'm going to assemble a body and see how some Grognard Adrian helmets look on the bodies. That'll let me know how things look to scale.Due to the closer-to-true 1/56 scale of t...
I'm looking for alternate heads for the Iron Core Stormtroopers for a derivative project based on a novel series.I love the stock Stormtrooper helmets, but I'd like to see what the bodies would loo...
@Charles Tottington I mean, these sort of are anime heads. See Elrond from the 1977 version of the Hobbit. While produced by Rankin Bass, the film was animated by Topcat, which later morphed in to ...
I remain salty these weren't voted for the next vox populi. But I remain hopeful that they simply get made before the end of the year.
VERY classic fantasy look to them. Right out of late 70's TTRPGs. I really like the aesthetic.
@Hudson Adams I noticed! That the chariots are already in production is a big part of why I'm hoping to see these; there's a "large" unit already available.The re-use of certain elements, I think, ...
I'm going to do what I do best and revive a dead thread!I'd love to see more Bronze age sets, specifically cultures around the Levant:PhoeniciansCanaanitesIsraelitesPhilistinesRealistically this wo...
@Mithril2098 I bought the British 7-ton Armoured Car a while back. It's definitely close enough for Death Fields, especially when you put your dudes on bases. It was a nice build, and it's going to...
Could work as well, though Blu-tak can eat plasstic if left on too long.I'd probably just fill the bodies with modeling epoxy (green stuff) or milliput to give a solid anchor point for magnets.
@Daniel Broaddus I think that used to be a thing. When I started playing Blood & Valor, the starter set was WGA Germans and French. Subsequently, that seems to no longer be the case.
Technically, there's already a gladiators set:https://wargamesatlantic.com/products/spartacus-revolt-gladiators?_pos=1&_psq=Gladiator&_ss=e&_v=1.0But it would be nice to see them releas...
@Dennis Horne Living over an ocean is no excuse to avoid Adepticon. We get enough people from Australia and Japan to confirm that!The Vain/Ogres end up as three units of Elite Foot in Dragon Rampan...
I would suggest reaching out to Osprey directly to see if they'd like to resell through WGA. They have an absurdly good collection of wargames for which WGA minis would be perfect. Given they are a...
As I've mentioned in a couple other threads, I'll be going to Adepticon 2024 in March. Is anybody else planning on going?If there's a decent enough group headed there, would anybody be interested i...
Building on the above, anybody else who would like to help organize a $100 Army Challenge, drop me a DM and we can start a group conversation as needed.
@Mithril2098 Realistically I'd start advertising the event well in advance of Adepticon 2025. And it's meant to be a pretty casual event; strict adherence to the limit won't be enforced. Instead, w...
@Coronasan LoftFullOfLead Hey hey! You're here! I emailed a week or so back, so it's great to see an update.Let's coordinate photos. I'd be happy to take pictures of my stuff and my friends' stuff ...
@Brian Van De Walker Holy moly! Antares 2e is huge for this sort of thing!I'm already a big fan of Warlords of Erehwon, so this is just sort of the icing on the cake!Man, I might have to loo...
@Brian Van De Walker Obligatory pedant moment: "you're"And trust me, I'm not young; I'll go with "early middle age".But I concede your point. I'll downgrad (and edit) with "an old guard of" in...
@Dennis Horne I actually messaged the game designer of Xenos Rampant and suggested an expansion with more xenos rules. The response was "Nothing planned at this time, but if Osprey gets enough feed...
@Brian Van De Walker No Limits: A granddaddy, not the grandaddy. I didn't want to be too hyperbolic.Xenos Rampant: I put that as both a pro and a con for good reason!With WGA being somewhat focused...
After all of this I want to say that Xenos Rampant is my favorite system at the moment. It has two sister systems by the same author; Lion Rampant for historical play and Dragon Rampant for fantasy...
I've been looking at a variety of model-agnostic rules sets for a while now, and I wanted to compile my findings and let others contribute their thoughts. In this thread, I'll be posting some scie...
I'm playing around with a few systems. I'll start up a thread on the variety of minis-agnostic rules I've looked at and my evaluation of each. Keep an eye in general chat!
The original author of the system has taken it upon himself to do the rewrite. I've provided my notes and we email back and forth intermittantly. I just emailed him in late December to see how thin...
I see these are in the pipeline in Vox Populi. If they were on the vote list, I know where all my votes would go. Non-Games Workshop plastic power armor is a top priority for me, as I'm expanding i...
I'm extremely hopeful these come out this year. Outside of GW there's no good (if any, as I really can't find them) plastic power armor infantry on the market. There's a lot of nice resin out there...

Excellent info! Thanks for contributing to this.
Do you have download/sale links available? This thing looks absolutely amazing! I'd love to cut one out on my Cricut.
There used to be a big collection of official lists, but they are sadly long gone. The unit creator is absolutely staying, as it's pretty crucial for building armies.
Hey all! With Adepticon over I finally have time to work on a few passion projects. The biggest of these is a a revised edition of No Limits.For those who aren't familiar:https://nolimi...
I recently dug out and built my original box of Valkir assault troopers, original Panzer Jaeger, and Ada. Wargames Atlantic seems to conduct itself and its business in a way that is sustainable in ...
