@Yronimos Whateley that Aliens inspired APC looks dope. I'm exceited to see it completed. Keep posting those pics.
So, yesterday while looking through the Legion facebook page, I noticed someone had posted a pic ot the ole UAMC Marines, and another dude had commented that he'd been jipped in the Hardsuit KS tha...
I really feel Mark has missed a great opportunity here. Not saying the Stug doesn't look sweet. I just think if you took the Stug model, extended the rear section, moved the power plant forward, an...
@Alessio De Carolis true. I'm just trying to rationalize why they'd dump the school. Having an entire Corps of people who can "fill the roll" is likely one reason. That and generals are, and I'm tr...
@Mark Dewis "Even lasers recoil." That's all I said. Yes, the recoil of a laser is stupid low, but it's still present- that's all I was getting at. And I'm reasonably certain that to make them effe...
@Geoff Maybury That truck is pretty sweet, and based off a Japanese truck. (LINK) Not sure if anyone got the 1/56 version DG made. @Alessio De Carolis Dropping snipers is a dumb move. I'm hoping ...
@Paul Mitting Yeah, the more I watch of the Ukranian conflict, and think about how that applies moving forward, I can see armored vehicles (and to an extent aerial vehicles) getting hit hard and be...
@Geoff Maybury I'm not totally up on the Sheridans missile system, but I really like the concept of using a tank main gun to send missiles down range. Seems like a pretty solid idea long term. I me...
Also, can we get an Afghan warrior holding an AT-4 backwards, please? The above GIF is proof it happened...
@Alessio De Carolis Even lasers recoil. And a rail gun- even though it isn't using an explosive charge to throw the projectile- will still have to overcome the inertia of the slug of whatever is be...
@Paul Mitting They're hard to beat in many respects. There is no need to focus them over range, without an atmo to slow them down, they have theoretically limitless range, depending on the projecti...
@Mark Dewis I think what was meant by "millisecond delivery" was that the projectile carries all of its energy with it and imparts it at one time via kinetic energy whereas a laser has to impart it...
Mark has accessory sets on Ebay.
@Arron Robertson The fact that you have a backstory and the army has taken on a life of it's own gives you bonus cool guy points.
@Arron Robertson Yes, Mark's based out of Cali.
@Brian Van De Walker true. Not arguing that. Like I said, Imperial Germany is ok. LAnd I think the Panzer Lehr have potential for modern Militia US style if some alternate weapon arms can be found....
@Michael Scott You can always direct fire your arty. Just because it can go for miles, doesn't mean you can't just point and shoot. :)
@Kyle Johnson Thanks for the comparison pic. The scale looks right to me.
@BS Kitbasher Basically it boils down to "Nazis aren't cool." I've got nothing against Imperial Germany, or even post WWII Germany, but it just seems that there are a lot of people who go all in on...
@Colin Brinkley Get one. You won't be disappointed. @JTam yes, they are about that tall, and yeah, stouter is a good adjective. They are also FAR cheaper. So, @Colin Brinkley - buy one if you...
@Colin Brinkley The 1/56 ones are taller than a Knight by a couple of inches. The 1/100 ones are about the same size as an Armiger. I'll post a pic of the two side by side, so you can see what I mean.
I figured this was a great spot to drop a couple pics of two of my favorite models in my collection given this piece of the forum is dedicated to the Iron Core range. The first few pics are of a mo...
Not gonna lie- it looks good enough for me to break my German themed scifi thing.
@John Wilson Both the Hunter and Stryder are good choices. I've had both- still have the Hunter. I sold all my Mantic stuff to fund other stuff.
@Grumpy Gnome I was messing with an old Defiance Games UAMC Marine last night that I intend to use in my review. If the Ooh-Rah guys are anything like them, I'll be happy. And judging from the pics...
@Brian Van De Walker I really feel the Eisenkern troops have a "light powered armor" feel going on. Or, rather, "low bulk" powered armor. Something for tight spaces like an urban environment or a s...
Here's the link to the place you can nab the .stls for the Hardsuits (and some other goodies).
@Grumpy Gnome true scale kits may be true scale. Now I NEED to get a box for my own review to see if this guy has a point.
I'm using these. Link to follow.
@Barry Evans ah, they're printed in England. I thought they were printed in the US. Which means... I may be paying for some extra shipping... would like some Murican flags.
@Grumpy Gnome I can see how he could be annoying, nut I think he's entertaining. Likely as not, my wife would find him insufferable. If you haven't yet, give his T34 vid a watch.
@Barry Evans did you want some to try? Sending a padded mailer won't be too bad. I could do that for you.
@Charles Tottington What made Carrie Fisher so damned awesome back in the day was that she didn't play down the womanly aspects. She was definitely a woman -an absurdly attractive one at that- and ...
@Andreas Mayrhofer I took some pare drums from the DF line,a nd added them to the MED Machine guns to make them look more the part. @Grumpy Gnome The scene is pretty hilarious, and does make you go...
@Colin Brinkley Yeah, I have a few things in the fire right now. Can't spring on them.
I like the idea of the flag waving in the breeze from the back of the turret. So far, that looks pretty lit.
@Grumpy Gnome Not when she's so concieted as to ignore the better actresses and characters before she came along.
@Mark Dewis If Mondragon does, I won't complain. I like that he and WGA have teamed up to bring the Jagers and Stormtroopers back. Always good to see a good idea get a second chance at life.
@BS Kitbasher Since you got the reference, I won't be sending you to Detroit any time soon, for it is apparent you are executing your technique with feewing. :) All those sound pretty good. @BS Ki...
@JTam something like that. Buy I'd prefer to think of it as a "space saving device."
@JTam well, obviously JenLaw was a trend setter. Characters like Ripley and Vasquez and Connor would never have been popular without her massive influence.
Ok... This plus This. Elite Scifi Imperial Guard Units. Use the picklehaub themed helmets and lasguns. What are some other kitbash ideas you think would look dope. I wanna see them.
@JTam I can't think of a single person who's seen that movie that didn't like Vasquez. How they balanced females with attitude in that movie was amazing. And, yes. Sentry guns would be great- but ...
@JTam They'd work, but I have a differnt idea in mind. For starters, I'm trying to move away from a WWII German aesthetic. Also, I envision these guys having some form of grav transport. Something ...
@JTam MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! Nurses of destruction!!!
@Grumpy Gnome Sonic electronic ball busters and pointy sticks. ;) Also- readin the "500 pt army from a single WGA box" thread got me thinking. What about "modern/scifi" weapons for the WWII and WW...
I think it's been mentioned before- I think the Digital arena would be a great place to put an accesory set for the various boxed sets in the Deathfields genre. To be more direct, I'd like to see ...
@JTam You know... That would make an interesting force of Faux Gaurd...
