Little Big Hornposted in Imperial Conquests: Battles in the Age of Empires 1815-1914
The Perry Cavalry are pretty adaptable. I turned some into late century British lancers using loose pith helmets from the old old Wargames Factory Zulu War British. You get three guidon poles in a ...

Would Siocast be a good way to plug in the gaps and diversify WA's line?posted in General Chatter
My guess also that while Siocast may have some attraction for a metal moulding outfit that has yet to invest in hard plastic production assets, it's probably no cheaper for a firm that already has ...

Wargames Atlantic Supervillainsposted in Painting & Modeling
Yeah. Even with digitals, it can be hard to find good modern civilians (everyone seems to do Fantasy and Science Fiction...).

The Apocalypse Survivor kits (Ex Wargames Factory, currently from Warlord Games) are good for civilians and cops.

As far as modern law enforcement goes, especially for Superhero game Extra-Special Weapons & Tactics types, Ooh Rah are really good. I ordered a sprue and am painting them up for this very purp...

Not much left to catch up now.posted in Atlantic Digital
Digital has been pretty good at catching up on the missing theme releases, but by my count we still have four missing: Word Ablaze Civilians (the female resistance *might* count, though I thought ...

The road to Mordheimposted in Painting & Modeling
Nice. Old Mordheim wonk myself (I even have a credit in the Annual), though these days I'd probably use some version of the Frostgrave rules instead of the old thing.

Hades vs The Argonautsposted in Painting & Modeling
@Alessio De Carolis I agree, but for that to happen on more than a casual basis you probably need the miniatures wargaming community not to be overwhelmingly located in Western Europe and the USA. ...

Female multipart plastic setsposted in General Chatter
Once we are in science fiction territory, issues such as "median height" and even gender itself tend to be more detail than problem. If it's important that a given soldier is tall and muscular, wom...

Very nice. The lighting totally sells it!

Hades vs The Argonautsposted in Painting & Modeling
I spotted Herakles and Atalanta easily enough and I'm guessing cloak boy at the back is Jason. Which ones are Castor and Polydeuces?

What would Einherjar Heavy Weapons and Command look like?posted in Death Fields: The Greatest Sport is War!
Death Fields lore has them taken from Viking era though. Later Swedish styles wouldn't be appropriate (unless there's some top ups taken later?)

Free Mini for international Women's Dayposted in Atlantic Digital
@JTam anything's removable with a sharp knife. But I expect like most digital files you can do a bit of pre-printing adjustment. Moving a small slab onto the icon would do it. Or another logo.

Deep one Private Investigator. Combat Librarian. So many possibilities. It is a great set!

Frustration with the Australian warehouseposted in General Chatter
@Brendan Flynn the tracking has been reasonably accurate so far. I mean, I get that you have to wait extra from Aus warehouse to Esperance - as I have to wait for Aus warehouse to Hobart - bu...

We're also not talking stretch fabric. I think the sculpts are fine - thay have visibly female faces, visibly wider hips and visibly narrower shoulders, although the latter is obscured by the epaul...

@Colin Brinkley I'm talking about the digital files on MyMiniFactory. I know the plastic boxes have credits.

@Battle Specter recoil, yes. Significant recoil, especially for a vehicle mounted weapon? No. A 300 megawatt laser produces around one newton of recoil.

Grav-StuG: Weapon options.posted in Iron-Core: Mark Mondragon's Universe
There are counters to EMPs. The most basic is to put your electronics in a Faraday cage (i.e. a foil box). Or ruggedise your critical circuits at the design level. I think you can count on m...

Look around for some reenactors. You cannot fully trust paintings in regard to how a uniform hangs. I'm not seeing much distinction between the two pants shown here.

Monthly Themes Suggestionsposted in Atlantic Digital
I like wings as an idea. General Accoutrements could have just accessory wings - Bat Wings, Bird Wings and maybe butterfly ones. Any air force types would count. WW1 and WW2 aviators; Balloon corp...

Ehhh.... they appear to have wider hips and narrower shoulders than the male sculpts to me. Silicone boobs are far in the future.

"A War Transformed" Forth coming Game.posted in General Chatter
Do we know what size skirmish it's intended for? That can vary from a handful of figures a side to a several dozen. I agree this looks very good, and a total windfall for WGA!

@JTam they made it a point to mention that World Ablaze was going to get a lot of love, so I hope not. It COULD be Napoleonic missing out this month. At least the Catholic Priests are era appropria...

Sculptor creditsposted in Atlantic Digital
The digital sculptors are credited on the boxes, but I can't seem to find any credits on the digital portal. Anyone have a list?

Alien Arena Securityposted in Painting & Modeling
Sweet stuff. Alien heads does solve perceived proportion issues with the chonk torsos and awkward arm angles. "That looks out of proportion..." "Don't be racist" ;)

Yep, good stuff. The Aztec bodies would go well as the basis of Barsoomians, too.

What would you guys even do to fix this sad excuse for a Space Marine?posted in Death Fields: The Greatest Sport is War!
TBH the size of the weapons doesn't bother me. Superstrong guy in power armour and all.

Mate, probably the wrong forum channel. This is for Death Fields - I think this belongs in general discussion or modelling and painting.

I had hoped there might be a Minotaur in that range, but it appears not. You could convert the Satyr I guess.

Grav-StuG: Weapon options.posted in Iron-Core: Mark Mondragon's Universe
@Paul Mitting it's a matter of swings and roundabouts. Tank guns have a muzzle velocity in the order of 1-2 kilometres per second, so "mico-second delivery" is not really correct. A shell fired at ...

@Alessio De Carolis to be fair, they are mostly fully armoured. Or robots.

Masterbox 1/24 ones are only about $20. Tall Ogre size.

The Guild Myrmidianposted in Painting & Modeling
Hmmm... it does occur to me you could probably find models in the larger scales that would work for giants. Even 1/32 or 1/24 kits could work, but 1/12 and 1/8 are common. 1/12 is about a 6" figure...

@JTam for Afghanistan even Martini-Henry rifles are not unheard of. Plenty of SMLEs as well as No.4's; for the most part those rifles were obtained between the 1840's and the 1940's. Number 4 rifle...
