I would love to see more 14th century oriented stuff, even if they are just upgrade STL packs. The Crecy/Agincourt crossbowmen are a great start but they are definately more of the Agincourt side o...
I think a fantasy game themed entirely underground would be cool. A warband or skirmish game with dwarves, kobolds, goblins, and myconids. Mechanics for such a game could include darkness, causing ...
@Hudson Adams Also by your first point, what makes an army builder isn't necessarily massive numbers of models, it's more that very simple models which may only have 2 or 3 parts are inside ...
@Hudson Adams Good to hear. Carolingians and Ottonians is my big vote. I want these boys following Otto I to the Lechfeld, and then his son to his disaster at the battle of Stilo
@Brian Van De Walker I was going to reply with something like "they seem dead set on 48 and it's because that matches up with the dark age shield sprues that they'll just throw into ...
@Hudson Adams No archers is fine, but can I request some javelins and slings in this? I know the Goth box exists and has slings but theyre small and can fit on a sprue 😁
WGA I just have one request (I understand the irony of that statement since I've made mltiple requests connected to this set here and on FB) Can we please get a variety of weapons, especially jave...
I am once again calling for the release of contenental troops. The "Dark age army builder" works fine for levy but there should be a box of armored infantry which could work as carolingins, ottonia...
I think some STL files to go along with this box are necessary. Files like teardrop and concave shields so that these can include people in the 800s-1000s. My desire to do the Holy Roman Empire jus...
I just want to point out that I love the new Nubian spearmen. they work great as armored sahel troops@Hudson Adams
@Alfonso TheTraitor hey I love the look of these guys, what paints did you use to get the skin?
@Mithril2098 talking about Italy, making a box of pavise crossbowmen would be great. Or at least a plastic box of crossbowmen and a digital set with pavises and accurate helmets
@Adam Worsdale I personally use the shield transfers from Relic miniatures. yes the shields ar kind of big but I like the Plumbata. I have the ones with the Chi Ro's on them and they look great. I ...
I posted about this in the Facebook group, Mali would be so unique and amazing. To actually contribute to this post I think it would be great to include Billmen/polearm men. Having a regular infan...
@Mark Dewis I mean we could have some preexisting sets as well as new mongol and sarecan sets. that said the arab spearmen set isn't necessarily pre-islamic or post-medieval, I just wish it had mor...
@Mark Dewis This is spectacular. That collection at Heidelberg is especially great. Thank you
I hope to see some of the existing digital sets transfered to this line. Maybe we can get mongols and Sarecens for this period!
@Indy Techwisp I'm stumped, what is that home country?
@Estoc The preorders are still up. I don't think the proportions are off, I think arms covered in chainmail looks a little wack and will often make the models arms look different. Similar to a mode...
One of the best things about this period is the ornate heraldry and personal insignia of much of the nobility. What is your favorite example of this? also if you know where one can find transfers f...
@Greaver Blade Biblical wars are so cool and i think there is a decent market of people who aren't really into wargaming who would ge very into it if easily accessable israelites and philistenes we...
I'm still excited for this set. Lord knows it's been a slow burn though
I am excited to eventually see these boys. I've been wanting to do a fantasy late Roman army for a while with 3d printed angels as support. We just need good late Roman light and medium cavalry
I'm so glad that this set is doing well in vox populi voting. It seems like fans of the decline and fall range haven't had much to cheer about for a minute (except that we can make a full sassanid ...
@Hudson Adams I know the guys at covetedforge personally and think they would be great
I need these squamata boys. I would give a kidney for them. I want to make a fantasy germanic kingdom and my heart is set on having all the models be WGA exclusively except for the heroes.
While the heads may not be perfect fits, the current goth box would work perfectly as basic Lombard infantry. honestly WGA should just release a series of dark age heads to print alongside the goth...
OPR skirmish allows for heavy weapons. you could also play the base game at smaller points values
There are practically no good sets for playing "Cathay" or anything of the sort. These boxes are sorely needed
The word "Sahel" refers to the grasslands just south of the Sahara desert and north of the forests and jungles of coastal and Central Africa. The word Sahel comes from the Arabic word for 'coast' s...
@Charles Tottington Hey you mentioned that youre busy at college, I am too. Barring going to a very very small school, your college should have something of a makerspace. A place where you can send...
@Mark Dewis I could but I already built them and still had more than enough usable heads. thank you though
I'm suprised that the review didn't mention that a number of the helmets heads had holes/bubbles on the temples. That was the case for the 2 boxes that I got. Aside from that I absolutely love the ...
If you have ever heard of Warhammer Armies Project I've been using my conquistadors for that. It's one of the largest fan recreations of warhammer fantasy and the army count has been essentially do...
What game systems do people like for this time period? I'm aware of SAGA and the age of invasions module for that game. There's also the more genericly broad historical systems like hail caesar. I ...
I just hope the box comes out before christmas, even though that probably wont happen
@H M yeah but victrix stuff is so tall. Id like to use them for barbarians and the WGA stuff for the romans because you have the whole height difference steriotype, no matter how true or not that w...
Dawn of the final day
@Brian Van De Walker There are enough major revivals (9th age, Warhammer armies project) that are popular enough that you could find a community in most cities for it. all that aside even with KoW ...
I agree with @Estoc deciding the size of force that you want is the firt step. making a miniatures agnostic army for a small skirmish game and for a mass battle game are two different experiences....
I know its a ways off but what about safavid persians? they would make a great opposition force to any ottoman box and persians are ever overlooked. light cav with guns and bows, light infantry wit...
@Brian Van De Walker Actually yeah, most cataphracts that are out are too blatantly roman or byzantine to be used as a Sassanid army. as far as just horse archers go I feel like this box would be a...
As mentioned before I think that going in on the Sassanian empire would be a great option. As WGA focuses on cavalry sets, it would be really cool to see some light horse archers or even cataphract...
While there are concerns abous stereotyping east and central asian peoples I think a lot more people would focus on how cool it is to have a culture represented or be grateful that their culture ge...
@James Manto as far as the normal sets go im using roman heads on gohic bodies to make archers and then the goths themselves can be used as foederati. I imagine the army builder sets wi...
@Kinjack Honestly, I think if you wanted to make a companion set for ottomans then HRE troops wont really do, it just feels like theres too much overlap with the conquistadors box at least for the...
I'd hate to hijack this but the talk of the future of evolution had me thinking about crabmen I mean they are the best animals this planet has to offer and a crustacean based race certainly has al...
@Brian Van De Walker I understand what you mean with the lizardmen, I suppose I find the muskets to be really weird because I don't play any pulp Victorian games. That might just be a me thing but ...
