Is that the upcoming hard plastic version of The Damned?

Those pouches look like the ones on the stl previews/

Or are they Space Soviet Stalingrad/ Afghanistan survivors?

Still waiting for our Ogres to arrive in Australia.

It is taking forever!

I think the Ogre's have taken over the Shipping Container and the ship for their own doings.

I just wish we could get our hands on all these fantastic new WA releases.

We have been waiting for months.

WGA certainly aren't being helped by the world shipping situation that is true.

I've looked through the Oct 22 Wargames Illustrated that had a WGA advert indicating a Fall release for the Ogres.

I need to see if the Ogre helmets work with left over feathers from GW Pistoliers so they can be added to my small Ventrillian force.

Now, are they going to sci-fi adapt the Treemen box? How could such a thing be represented? Throwing not-Ewoks?

Grumpy Gnome, have you ever stopped to consider you may be overthinking matters?

Either buy Wargames Atlantic products or don't.

When it comes to 'Bugs', you may as well ask if they are linked to Games Workshop or Verhoeven's design team for Starship Troopers.

As for "but others may not agree and either way I believe transparency is the best way to increase consumer confidence."

You appear to be the first person since the Raumsjager were released to ask for 'transparency' so I'm not sure where "others may not agree" comes from.

I'm not saying this because I know something, just an outside, uninformed observation... Even GW stopped acknowledging individual artists after the Chapterhouse lawsuit because it left open a legal argument about 'ownership' and caused a good portion of their case to get tossed.

In the UK at least, I think that's why Lucasfilm lost the Stormtrooper armour case and why the branding "Original Stormtrooper" now exists on lots of products that will never see Star Wars on the packaging.

Anyhoo, I skipped the Ooo Ra but am eagerly awaiting the Landsknecht Ogres so I can build them up as The Vain. I think I even have some Curious Constructs pith helmet Ogre heads left over from earlier projects.

Then there are still four boxes of Bulldogs to kitbash/ convert/ mix n match with the new Cadians and hopefully a box of Harvesters on the way. In fact, what do I have to look forward to once I'm back home in May?

1. Finishing off my Last Chancers inspired Cannon Fodder conversions now that the female Fodder are at home.
2. Printed Cannon Fodder civilian parts.
3. Printed human Death Fields Security.

That list only gets bigger if The Damned come to Only-Games for printing.

. Someone could have pointed out earlier for example that WGA lists Thieu Duong as the sculptor of Ooh-rah and Harvester sets.

Someone could have pointed out to you? Interesting take.

In all of your research, did you not go to the actual Wargames Atlantic website and read either the product pages or the News updates?

Not alienated. Slightly bemused.

Whatever you do, don't research links between GW, Warlord, Mantic, River Horse and many others.

You'll be there forever.

Yeah, the industry really isn't that big. You'll find the same names cropping up in all sorts of places. It's not usually a sign of anything nefarious.


So... New models, eh?

The new releases page indicates the Ogres and Harvesters could be on a ship ti Blighty by first week of March.

That's enough to get me tingly.

Heads up to UK gamers who may have advance ordered the Ogres.

I've just been emailed that my order is on the way.

Looks like ogres

But more Chaosy?

When they first showed a close up of the pouch, I was leaning towards a Death Fields Russian themed kit but that weapon looks like the version on The Vain.

 privateer4hire wrote:
Agreed. Plus no filing down the foofee pants if you want sci-fi ogres

The foofee pants aren't a bother as mine are going to be aligned with my Ventrillian Nobles.A bit of frill aligns with the Helmet feather on the troops.

If (still an if) there is a pure Sci fi Ogre set on the horizon, I'm glad I only went for one box of the Landsknecht Ogres.

Up until now the Friday Email has focused on the actual, plastic side rather than the digital releases hasn't it?

Like you, I'm more for plastic but I do have some printed releases waiting at home for me from Only Games.

I wasn't aware of that second sprue.

I was focused on the not-ripper guns as mine will be sci-fi builds. There's a shotgun as well! The extra variety will be nice.

Prophecy tells those ogres (december 2022 release) might even reach the EU someday.

Sarissa has sent them out to the UK. I believe mine have arrived (say believed as a Sarissa labelled box has arrived at home while I'm in the Far East fir the next two months).

They cover the EU distribution for Wargames Atlantic don't they? If so, my fingers are crossed for you. Not in a sarcastic fashion either.

Huh? Were the previous images stretched or something, they looked like ogres before?

Need to see the full pictures

Maybe it's a Death Fields range not at all intended as a not-Vraks Renegade army including infantry, command/ heavy options and Notgryns?

Plus, building Renegade vehicles is half the fun!

I have two of the Wolverines from Archon in Blood Pact colours.

Watcorp did a Kickstarter for stalk tank stls.

There is so much fun out there for Renegades.

New physical releases on Only Games.

I don't think those count as physical releases

They are a physical release because if you click to buy, Only Games send you figures rather than a computer file.

I honestly get both points.
But would you consider MP3 downloads physical media because you can burn them on a CD?

So, what's new on the HIPS front? I am looking forward to many sets that were sculpted years ago and have been put on the back burner it seems... bring us some news please

Not the same thing.

Only Games sells the customer a physical product not the stl files to print out yourself or go to a third party printing service.

As for HIPS products, I believe WA were going to announce the next preorder once the current gang of plastic products were in the shops.

Hopefully that might be in May as it looks like the SAS and German sentries are estimated to be out by the end of April.

Wargames Atlantic didn't post anything here.

I added an update about two new printed products from Only Games and the Internet has been the Internet.

I have no interest is collecting lots of digital files that I then have to find someone to print for me.

Therefore, I keep an eye on Only Games to see if anything new comes out that I want and I shared the news of a new physical product.

In answer to your question, Only Games offer 35 printed products. The actual number of digital files available far outstrips that total.

People should read the whole thing but this is the big news probably regarding the renegade guard of which we've seen at least 3 kits teased in Friday newsletters

Secret Project

We’ve been hard at work on a secret project in partnership with a well-known tabletop gaming content brand. The goal of the project is to do something we’ve never done before and bring out an entire Death Fields army in one shot through a crowdfunding campaign. And by army we mean 6+ hard plastic sets in one shot! We’ll be making an announcement about this soon but we’re within a few weeks of launch so you’ll be hearing a LOT about it.

Get yer wallets ready!

Infantry.
Command/ Heavy weapons.
Ogres.
Cavalry.

Split Command & Heavy into two sets rather than follow the Les Grognards example gives five kits.

Different types of Infantry for example a standard set of traitors plus a more 'elite' unit? Think Blood Pact as Tempestus equivalent vs standard Renegades.

Renegade Halfling Snipers?

If a gamer is after a large sci-human army, a 24 - 30 model box for around £25 is a no-brainer especially if said gamer is not reliant on a GW store for gaming and isn't interested in tournaments.

Well.
infantry, cavalry and HWT are 3.
Assuming separate command instead of grognard we would be at 4 kits?ogres`5

To be a fully fledged army, it would then require a transportation vehicle. 6. A mbt 7. A reconnaisance vehicle/ and or artillery 8.


Also i think those drummag shotguns are ogre equivalents due to the detail being not present on the leg armor on the infantry and cavalry (talking about the small screw dots)

Assuming of course they follow the rough outlines of modern combined arms and army forces.
Alternativly we could see an elite infantry kit instead of reconnaisance?

As I mentioned earlier, I was thinking along the lines of a Blood Pact type or a Renegade Tempestus equivalent.

I'm going to say 2 factions each with Infantry, Cavalry, Heavy Weapons and Ogres. Feel free to make fun of me later.

A Death Fields starter box type thing?

Guess we find out on Monday.

Looking closely at the silhouette and based on some of the visual cues I think it is vaguely possible we're looking at some sort of spiky evil human army.

I'd go for "not-Vraks so much cheaper than the now OOP Forgeworld version coming at the right time for the Heresy Militia list " army.

We've posted on the Wargames Atlantic Legion facebook group asking for suggestions for additional heads to be included with the standard infantry for "The Damned".

If you have a head type you would like to see, please head on over to the legion facebook group and share your ideas.

Are you planning for extra options to be added using Tribes content? because being a Tribes member since day 1, I'd be all for that too ^^, maybe even with some extra body poses, logistics stuff and the like.

The Cannon Fodder civilian/ mechanic parts are a good example.

My unbuilt Necron side of the Imperium collection is being sacrificed ion the alter of the 2nd hand market to ensure I can jump all in on this.

I've been sidebuilding and converting Sons of Sek and Blood Pact from multiple sources to have a Renegade force over the last couple of years. My Archon Wolverines could do with some extra armoured support as well.

In amongst the anticipation for The Damned, Only Games have a new printed set available.

Battle Frogs?

The background.

The N’Glonhgk (which means “people” in their native tongue like most races) are divided into hundreds of small nation states on their watery home world. Once united under a global government the system broke down through greed and the manipulation of the rich and powerful. Now shifting alliances and near constant competition for resources has created a state of perpetual war on their planet. Unbeknownst to the N’Glonhgk, this slide into chaos has also caused them to lose their sponsorship for first contact with the galactic government.


With little hope of entry the planet has been opened to Death Fields league agents and the first team has been established recently on the circuit. Called simply The N’Glonhgk, this new team sports armored carapace armor and the latest armaments of their home world. They have yet to make a name for themselves but have posted up some initial wins and are attracting fans. They are a team to watch.

This multi-part set includes options to equip the five unique bodies with standard rifles, rifle with underslung GL, squad support weapons, and pistols

Man! Wish those frogs were coming out in hard plastic.

Gutted. I went to the web page to try and order some, to realise they're a digital release. Damn whoever put them in this PHYSICAL release thread.
Ah well, I can only hope they eventually come out in plastic/resin/metal/restic/cake/clay, something real at least.

The only issue I had with the models was, the one that looked like it had been shot in the back. Is that what the pose was?

My link was to the page where a customer receives a PHYSICAL product from Only Games, not a digital file.

Sorry. I went to it and saw the Wargames Atlantic Digital logo, scrolled to look for material type and couldn't see any and assumed it was an stl.

Anyway, thanks for repointing the link out. Purchased myself an initial pack. Thanks.

Have you performed an 'undamning' on me?

I don't post the digital links, only the items from Only Games. I'll be ordering those toads myself.

I went ahead and pledged but I wish I didn't have to choose which kits on the front end due to potential unlocks.

I've been playing around with my 10 box pledge.

At the moment I've set it at 5 Infantry, 1 Brutes, 2 Heavy and w Command.

Once Outriders become an option, I'll use 'Your Pledge' to swap an Infantry for an Outriders. I'll make other swaps as new kits unlock.
