Just finished this book: So it was cool to see these birds in person:
Possibly of interest: Clever way to handle the sponsons. Also, I'm a sucker for fixed antennas.
@Drangir https://www.myminifactory.com/tribes/WargamesAtlantic/posts/Teaser_Death_Fields_SneakFeet-22481 Pretty cool minis. Has a Vietnam LRRP vibe to me. Would fit nicely...
Death Fields in 8mm or so might be timely: https://www.warhammer-community.com/2023/07/07/legions-imperialis-your-burning-questions-answered/
@Drangir Seemingly plastic. My first thought was WW1 Halflings. But after considering the thigh pockets I thought WW2 Halflings? And after seeing the belly plates?/armor? I have t...
I voted for Warlord Epic scale. (Which I think is pretty much 12mm anyway).

@Andreas Mayrhofer Best documentary ever made.
100% awesome: I 100% don't need these. But also I 100% do.
@Benjamin Hayward Good point on the helmets.

A general trend from Reddit was at least as many if not more buyers were going to use them as Loyalist Guard. Anything that eases/facilitates that like clean gunshields and heads will ...

@Paul Mitting As would I. It is fairly saturated but the Old World is right around the corner and there will subsequently be tremendous appetite for such.
The Heavy Infantry (and regular for that matter) would be great for STALKER, Metro 2033, or similar:
I just finished Denny Flower's "Outgunned". There's a part of the book that reminded me a lot of these WGA Heavy Infantry:

Well it looks like the Heavy Infantry won out: I like the Beastmen a lot more, but these are interesting too.
@Drangir That is good news. It's a little confusing. Will they have both normal and damaged shields in the heavy weapons kit? Again this is a good thing. But perha...
