Sounds about right.
@Mithril2098 I don't know, the carroccio is something that would be useful for fantasy gaming too, so... Maybe voxatlantic? Empire of Mali would be great, so would the Mongol's varous enemy/...

@Thomas Brewer I believe there is even an FPW fan version of Boltaction out there ( which is not surprising).
@Hudson Adams We are holding you to that.
@Small Hat I think they may have had both at the the same time as those helmets you are showing are often seen as cavalry helmets and some argue China never left the bronze age due to thier continu...
@Eduard Garfella For what feels like the hundredth time, it’s not so much about assembling them anachronistically or not for me as I am likely going use these guys for fantasy myself. N...
@Eduard Garfella Actually I am cool with all that in fantasy sets and even like it there, heck I don't even consider myself a history player, but I generally side with the button counters whe...
@Indy Techwisp Hmm, well it does loosely fit the chivalry theme being samurai and all. 😆
@Mithril2098 because there was no real use of matchlock pistols in western Europe as a cavalry weapon, and that’s the actual a darn good reason to do them in this case. The point of adding a...
To repeat what I said earler in the comments (but with edits) Frankly neither pistol shows up in the Early American conquest of the Aztecs since wheel lock pistols where not even really invented ye...
@Mithril2098 honestly I thought the box mag was grenade launcher like enough, just make the barrel big it would be fine. I just think a hand cannon would be would be cooler.
@Mithril2098 Well, that RGSh30 is way better than another rotary and it does look like something a SciFi ship crew might have. @Drangir Maybe make the grenade in the hand cannon either a bigger ve...
@Charles Tottington Honestly, the older STLs were pretty clearly based off diffrent post-apocalyptic themed movie, game, and comicbook franchises, possibly even anime and manga. What it looks...
@Caratacus No hard academic ones I can think of off hand, but my mother researched Fairytails all her life and she told me that first (it is also possible my father was involved on one of his more ...
@Allan Lougheed True enough.
@George Moss I don't know about the horses, but from everything I have heard here and the FB group, yeah same Chariots as the boneheads, and hopefully it will be just chariots and maybe combined wi...
Its Boltaction, so personally I wouldn't normally think too hard about accuracy and just go the anachronistic COD route (which is at its core what Boltaction is given what Warlord puts in thier box...
About time. Are they still going to have the fuzz hat head option?
@Mithril2098 Nah,I think we should stick with the modern pointy hat stereotypes about the size of the Halflings would be good enough, maybe add some steampunk elements at most. Besides the only re...
I would recommend dakkadakka or leadadventure You could also try BeastofWar's onthetable forum.
@Mithril2098 Actually while I don't have 3D Printer myself either I don't think it’s a bad idea to mention Nate Feyma with newer gamers in mind since if your just starting to think about maki...
@Greaver Blade I believe Mark has patron with STLs, so he might be the person to ask actually.
@Hudson Adams They probably will, maybe not this year but in the next 2 for sure, so you should start thinking on it.
@Greaver Blade I have not tried it myself, but there is Warlord's German helms. Beyond that you could try converting the WA WW1/2 historical set heads or just use the Ooh-rah heads.
@Miyuso Yeah thats why I didn't vote for elves, they where not clearly labeled as the elves we discussed in your South East Asian Elf thread and therefore they are probably not going to be tu...
@Mithril2098 I would be happy if they just skipped the grenade launchers (have tons and they are one of the most common parts sold in ebay bitlots and 3rd party part dealers) but if they are ...
@Charles Tottington I just hope they keep the long anti-armor rifles they had in the base set.
@Stephen Sutton Given that the damned and space dwarfs are getting the same support weapons, possibly with the same clean gun sheilds (which I personally feel is a mistake), it is a fair bet they w...
@Jonathan Levine Nah, I have seen enough ugly female elf sets in hard plastic and its always because they are trying to comprimise with the male parts set, they should either just do a male set or ...
@Kendall Atcliffe Hmm, I don't know if the heads would work for Boltaction... maybe if you trimmed the top knot off. That said terrcota warrior heads would be okay scenery too.
@C A Forsyth Well, I am going to be a bit mean here but the pike and big sword sprue is actually why its only 24 instead of 30+ bodies (and one of the reasons why I have been arguing to keep ...
@Alessio De Carolis To be fair, the Norse mythos (particularly if we are just talking the old pagan part by itself and not the later Christian era critters and stories) is actually pretty bare comp...
@Axel Schudak Yep. @Krisps Closed helms are always a plus.
Whelp, bought $75 worth of Warring States Chinese votes now that I have the money to do so.
@Axel Schudak Not "could", should come with pistols. Seen enough of depictions of them with pistols that it would be a crime not to add at least 4 of the poorly firing contraptions in "one fo...
Actually the best fit for "Heroic 28mm scale" outside of models made with heroic scale in mind are simple non-scale toyatic style stuff like MENG's Toon Tank line or the Buzz Lightyear toy vehicles...
@C A Forsyth actually while I did suggest a similar thing in the past, given all the "Please add anachronistic fantasy pistols to this historical cavalry set for that DOA GW fantasy game so I don't...
So long story short I got tired of hearing "please add fantasy pistols to the conquestdor cavalry" when WA could just do the awesome sauce knights of Malta back when they where harrasing the Ottome...
@Eduard Garfella I just told you that they are likely going to have to cut at least half of those lances as is, possibly cut three fourths them and they still won't have enough space for pistols! ...
Brian Van De Walker Hobgoblin with two handed axe When the Vikings landed they were met with unexpectedly supernatural resistance. The hobgoblin was made using the Wargames Atlantic Goth kit...
Voited for Chinese Charoits and Cav, Valkir, and FPW Bavarians.
@Eduard Garfella I mean they are probably going to include the fully armored horse body on the same sprue, and even if they are not long spears like the lances just take up absurd amount of space o...
@Eduard Garfella Most of those will like not make it as is (ie half of them will likely be cut) same deal with the swords, even then I don't think its worth even considering given the space limitio...
@Allan Lougheed yeah that one was already brought up, it also has quick start rules in the book which are easier to follow.
@Axel Schudak They didn't even really exist in western europen countries in any numbers of real note till wheellocks where a thing and I am pretty sure the Conquestdors never used any pistols...
@Mithril2098 Well, that is not totally the case, there are a couple of really cheap options for cool looking SciFi that are not really historical at all: Firstly you can actually build pretty good...
@Jim Heath I think the dog is a better use of space than the fantasy pistols since WFB seems to be the main to only real reason people are wanting that anachronism, and thats honestly a terrible re...
You know after relooking at this, I really think you should just go with a "one of each type" approach instead of trying to be uniform with the weapons since each of the base torsos is outfit...
@Hudson Adams (thinks about all the "Sure they well, 🤣" comments I have received and looks at where GW is in the dumpsterfire) Nah, I think you need to strike while the iron is still hot on t...
@Paul Mitting there isn't becuase sadly they are kinda of bad idea for a plastic set for weird reasons once you look at them critically, at least if we are talking historical (basically too many ty...
