I really gotta have her. I've been wanting to order some figs from you guys for inquisition stuff lately anyway, this gives me an excuse!

That's looking really good. I've bought some Hasslefree stuff in the past though, and I'm wary about what she'd look like next to GW stuff as a storm trooper stand in.

That's easy, then. Just don't use GW stuff.

**BrookM**

Yeah, as I keep telling people, these are not the same proportions as GW's stuff.

**Barzam**

I'd be more concerned about whether or not they'll fit in with my Infinity figures than GW stuff. How well will their modern troopers work as Ariadna Foxtrot Rangers or Minutemen?

**Commander Cain**

Awesome sculpt! Reminds me of the Sedition Wars gals though, the helmet even looks identical...

**BrookM**

Well, Kev did some of the sculpting for that range.

Female Stormtroopers or Kasrkin. Does the fluff support this?

Edit: Grammatical FUBAR

Absolutely.

Cadia is 100% equal opportunities employer. Everyone fights, noone quits.

As for the rest of the Imperium, there is plenty to reference female dominated cultures and even more supporting mixed gender forces serving in military applications throughout the black library novels.

Thanks MGS. I knew there was fluff to support ladies in the Guard, even in some semi-elite units(Tanith Scouts and Snipers come to mind), but didn't know if there was any mention of female Stormtroopers or Kasrkin.

My urban-combat themed Cadians appear to be much more of a reality, and now that I can also add females....the army will look that much BETTER!

**Barzam**

While I still think they're too smiliar to the designs from Sedition Wars, they do look nice.

Spoiler:

new angle on the girl

Spoiler:

EDIT- spoiler'd the images due to size

**Alpharius**

I've no problem with the similarities to SW wars stuff - or more likely, generic SF stuff, as I'm pretty sure that they'll be in a material and a condition I'll vastly prefer...

**Balance**

They're nice looking minis, though right now they look more like carapace or 'hard shell' armor than 'power armor'. But still really nice minis. so arguing about the name is quibbling.

**Sikil**

Realy like 'em! Make a squad and I'm in!

**BobtheInquisitor**

I like the armor and I like the helmet, but I don't like that helmet with that armor. The armor is angular and has a lot of corners and edges. The helmet is smooth and rounded and looks like an Apple design. They just don't go well together. Hopefully there will be an option for a slightly more angular helmet...or for smoother, rounded armor.

Yeah, I agree. I really like the helmet and I really like the armor, I just don't like them together.

**-Loki-**

If that female in power armour scales well to Infinity, I'll have to use it to substitute for the boring Ahl Fassed. That looks absolutely amazing.

Bob is right they need to change the helmet, i see room for shoulderpads, and exchange the helmet a possibillities!

teased on facebook

How about another WIP? This time something completely out of left field for us, a WWII Heroine!

(Let's see how long it takes before someone says something I have to hide from our page )

**BrookM**

All she needs is a shield!

**Azazelx**

That is literally the exact thing I was going to type before I scrolled down...

**BrookM**

You can always put me on ignore and type it.

**Alpharius**

Awesome!

I'll have to pick this up for some Pulp City/SoTRII/Weird War II gaming!

New releases:

The Dread Pirate K'lok

The self-titled 'Dread Pirate' K'lok, Captain of the not-very-good ship Scuttlebutt and boss of Quirion and Buckle, armed with a trusty flintlock and stood on his most recent booty.

Sculpted by Werner Klocke for the charity Goblinaid and now available proper

Powered-Armour Kieran

Megalynn's Big Brother and another member of the spacefaring White family, joining Powered Armour Libby, Captain Kev, Megalynn and Smudgester. Kieran is decked out in advanced powered armour including an oversized ripper claw and pulse carbine.

This is a young teenager in powered armour so considerably shorter than our regular adult figures at ~24mm.

(As such. he also fits in nicely with the Grymn)

**Vain**

One weapon swap away from a really tiny Abbadon terrorising the materium.

Oooh... or swap the gun for a mace, and then swap this guy's axe for a sword:

... for a wonderful miniaturised Emperor vs Horus diorama...

**BrookM**

Damn, it's been ages since their last release.

**Vain**

I am dead set waiting for their Plastyic Sci-Fi Trooper Kickstarter they keep teasing.

These guys I believe...

I want in!

Yarp. I'm not too into the power armoured models they've been releasing, but the regular humans like that WWII heroine are great. I'd wish they'd buck up their release schedule, as I do like Kev's stuff.

Hah - I checked the thread just to see how Freebooter-ish the goblin pirate would be. Very Freebooterish indeed it turns out. I ready got mine, but nice that it will remain available.

**Wyrmalla**

Hmn, this thread hasn't been updated in a while. Oh well, here's a dump of Hasslefree's latest and upcoming releases from their Facebook page (their new releases page is a bit of a jumble, but most of the following have been released as resin masters, bar the sci fi soldiers I think).

Edit: And dammit BrookM! I need to quit updating your neglected news threads you git (um, though I haven't posted Crooked Dice's new crap lately come to think of it... Shuttit).

These first two ladies look like their bases on something. Hunger Games and Firefly perhaps?

**Sikil**

I want a near future covert ops Libby!

That'd be AWESOME!
