@Yronimos Whateley While you have a point about the French, the WW2 Italians don't really fit in that well anywhere else if we are talking actual history gaming. Otherworld/high imagination s...

Expanding the Renaissance rangeposted in Renaissance: Gunpowder, Mercenaries & Kings
@Charles Tottington frankly Perry already covers most of the Tudors pretty well with their War of the Roses line and Warlord's ECW line is generation or 2 after the Conquestdors who aga...

The Valkir Are Comingposted in Iron-Core: Mark Mondragon's Universe
@Stephen Sutton the comparision would be with the the old Valkir set which I think was $40 for 20 figures back when Dreamforge was working with WGF, if your space armor knight prices are the same o...

Expanding the Renaissance rangeposted in Renaissance: Gunpowder, Mercenaries & Kings
@Charles Tottington The Conquistadors should roughly work for the English of the same timeframe of 1519-1590, any exclusive to English armor/weapon/clothing is likely ignorable if these images of E...

Army Builders and Squamata: Are they are ever going to be released?posted in Decline and Fall: Imperial Rome at War 284-476 AD
@Marko Merpovich The first AB has not even funded yet and frankly I think they should cut the headswaps down to one set of options, have 3 spears to one sword/axe weapon mix with only 1 weapon to a...

What to use Conquistadors for.posted in Renaissance: Gunpowder, Mercenaries & Kings
@Yronimos Whateley Gold, Glory and Blood did use them and I voted for it. I also voted for Guardians of Totem, knightcore, Roiters and Little Great Game which looked like fun games. Also the Lizar...

Expanding the Renaissance rangeposted in Renaissance: Gunpowder, Mercenaries & Kings
@Charles Tottington they all looked a lot like the spanish at that time though (like the norwegians and English look close enough), heck I am pretty sure the set only has pikes so it can cover most...

What to use Conquistadors for.posted in Renaissance: Gunpowder, Mercenaries & Kings
@Charles Tottington Mix thier ranks with Warlord landsknects and avoid using the morion helmets. As to games any ruleset with the word "pike" in it's title will likely cover both sets.

Conuistador bodies.posted in Renaissance: Gunpowder, Mercenaries & Kings
@William Redford hmm, I am not sure the AB would be much diffrent from using the old Grippong Beast Dark Age warriors to soak up parts, but okay.

So any thoughts on the Zombies?posted in Classic Fantasy
@Krisps Actually I could see them doing 3 of each for varity, but 2 of each dark age helmet would make the most sense. @Mithril2098 Not going to lie, they could probably ditch the bodies altogethe...

@Hudson Adams You dumped the conquestadors heads in favor of the moderns. Why? could have just added those modern zed heads to the modern civilians later on if/when you do them.

Valkir anti-material rifle conversionposted in Iron-Core: Mark Mondragon's Universe
Option A for me, that gun always gave the figures a retro anime vibe as is to me which is what I like to see with my space troopers instead 40k gothic spaceness.
