Yeah, I'm absolutely LOVING the models shown so far, and if they could make good-looking zombies that would be icing on the cake!

I'm gonna have to come up with a use for these Northern Warriors, maybe as Chaos Marauders or Freeguild for AoS... Might be the best generic medieval fantasy human warrior kit out there, especially with the variety in weapon options and even cavalry! And of course it scales with GW which Perry Models generally don't.

What other factions are going to be part of the game / world?

Are we talking standard fantasy races here, or is it going to be another "Humans, some weird elves, and some bizzaro custom faction like evil squirrel men" kinda world?

If the kickstarter campaign will be a success, we will expand our range with our humans and our new races: i'm meaning that we will start work on new designs for classical races like orks, dwarfs and elves. For sure inside the rules you will find in the starter box we will launch with kickstarter, we will put some pages with unit profiles for classical races (orks, elfs and dwarfs)

a better pictures of incoming stuff made by beast of war guys

Yeah moar Byzantines, do you have an approximate date for them?

Edit I hust saw on your facebook arches in july and the WIP and the catafract

These look really nice! Glad to see they scale well with GW figures, I'm interested!

Do FireForge’s not-Bretonnians their Albion knights and Pegasus knights have a place in this Forgotten World game or are they just a one off thing?

Albions and pegasus knights were released to support the 9th age players with the resources we had. There is no reason to tell to the players: don't use these figures to play our future fantasy rules.

So these are three human kits for the KS. Initially I was really looking forward to this, but it seems that it's the same design (except weapons / mount) for archers, infantry and cavalry.

A bit of chainmail, different helmets and etc.. would be great.. now it's more we CAD designed a set of figures and than we use that figure for everything.

It's to plain.

Northmen have a uniform, probably you will like more our living dead

These remind me a LOT of the Advanced HeroQuest mercenaries from back in the day. I like them!

I hope this will be a success and if I have the money at the time, I'll certainly will support the effort.

It's not that I don't like them. I still think the basic infantry looks great, but the cavalry is way to plain.. . A bit more armour would be a start.

I would also really like the cavalry to look a little different from the standard infantry. A different helmet style could do the trick.

another wip

None of those pictures show for me.

I'm gonna agree here, the footmen and archers are nice, but the cavalry deserves are bit of a different look, even if it's just a different helmet and a few pieces of armour.

That made me laugh! I honestly think they paid a sculptor to do a single body, five heads, a horse, and a bunch of different arms.

I love these miniatures! They DO look like Advanced HeroQuest’s henchmen. Great!

I like the cavalry because they so closely match the infantry as always you’ll get a range of opinions based on personal tastes. A few optional bits on the sprue should keep everyone happy. It’s good to see hooded heads as well for the archers.

We are showing just some wips to give you an idea.
Each plastic set will have a lot of different parts, for example our spearmen will have
6 different bodies
8 different heads
15 different weapon options
a lot of accessories to customize your soldiers
a command frame to obtain commanders (with more different parts and weapons)

another think is that you will be able to mix all the different parts from the different boxes to obtain a incredible number of different soldiers: for example use the bodies from the cavalry kit to assemble infantrymen with more armour (there will be a lot of options for achers and for the northern cavalry too)

The following picture is for example the cavalrymen assembled with lance option instead of swords

Still no photos. Are you linking from Facebook or something?

Might want to consider hosting them elsewhere to make them easier to view. Dakka has a great gallery of you don't have any other options.

I'm sorry these pictures are from our twitter channel. I see them without difficulties, i will see to upload them from another channel (maybe from our facebook page)

That's the issue then. And linking to Facebook won't solve the problem.

Upload to a gallery somewhere. Not everyone has or wants to deal with social media.

We are creating a gallery on our website, as soon as it will be completed i will edit all the links

meanwhile another wip on the bowmen



We liked a lot the idea to build a unit with flaming arrows, this is why you will find in this kit braziers and flames to put on your arrows to obtain a very nice unit of bowmen

Flaming arrows is a cool idea.

Yeah this looks nice.

Given the archers are a totally separate kit to the infantry are there any kneeling legs in the kit?

they are a separate kit with the command sprue in common with the others (warriors and cavalry), we didn't insert kneeling legs

I'm asking myself if kneeling would be viable with such a large bow in a unit
