Anybody have the Goblins yet? I'm curious what they look like in the flesh (plastic).

I just got a box yesterday bu not sure what to add beyond what you can see in the various photos online. Did you have a specific question?

They look pretty good. Not as sharply sculpted as say Games Workshop or Victrix, typical Wargams Atlantic material quality.

About the same size as Oathmark Goblins but the heads are more like the Wargames Factory/Warlord Games Orcs. The two torsos, where separate from the legs, are about the same size as the separate Wargames Factory/ Warlord Games Orc torsos and the Oathmark Goblin torsos but the Oathmark Goblins have their distinctive hunched back with the neck at the back of the head rather than the bottom like the Wagames Factory/Warlord Games Orcs and the Wargames Atlantic Goblins.

Nah, that looks like a spanish grenadier. Taller bearskin, slightly slimmer towards the top. No plate, but a bag on the rearside. The bicorne also looks spanish. Got a fly instead of a cocarde.
Could of course also be works in progress and they end up being french...
WA announced the spanish ages ago and a french grenadiers army builder a few weeks ago.

A bit too flat on the top for grenadiers, but might be.

Latest sneak peak seems to be firmly from the "WW1 British" set.



Don't recognize the uniform in the right picture though.

Yeah, brits and doughboys both wore half long coats with pouches slung over in the front, but could be something completely different also...

Much cool stuff in the pipeline, it would be nice if the move of the production facilities would speed up the output.

Hot off the press: first test shots (T1) for our Medium Horse frame and our 25mm base frame. More on the bases at a later date but the horsies have been designed to have any left or right side work with any other so along with four head types you can get 36 combinations (more with the tails but now we're just getting crazy) We'll be using these horses with a variety of sets including the upcoming Afghan Cavalry. Other sets will have unique horses (Warring States) and we may sell these separately as well.

Nice. Will they be avalible separately?

Yaaaaayyyyy Horsies!!!

I wonder how those saddles would work as ginormous shoulder pads, like for the upcoming ogres.

If those are 25mm bases, those horses look fairly small.
Also, not sure the market needs yet more 25mm plain round bases, but if it means fewer built-in bases, I welcome them.

But the horses already have built-in bases too...

I think they're two different produc- Oh, you were bein' funny Wha-Mu

if the shipping situation doesn't improve a non chinese source of bulk bases is probably going to do decent business (even with reaper and proxie models already making them)

wonder if WGA are planning a line that comes with bases too? i guess we watch this space

Bases seem to have magnet holes?

Historical horses tend to be smaller that GW by a lot and comfortably fit on 40mm

McDougall designs is proud to announce partnership with Wargames Atlantic. We are now an authorized retailer.

https://mcdougalldesigns.myshopify.com/collections/wargames-atlantic-kits



Our first stock order is inbound, and all currently available kits are on the website on preorder for shipment in early 2022.

We will be offering bundle packs with 3d printed items in the coming days.

What... does this mean? Will you be designing upgrade bits for Atlantic kits?

Also while I have you here... I adore your work. Any more Man o War fleets in the pipeline?

Ok, to answer your questions and clarify:

1. We are currently in the process of adding various 28mm lines to our webstore. Some of these have products that have uses in-tandem with wargames atlantic kits. Skeletons and Txarli factory egyptian undead (Shield packs, head packs, weapons, etc) for example. Or death fields kits with heads from various sources.

2. We will be coming up with "Bundle packs" which combine a number of the wargames atlantic sets with items from our 3D printed catalog. These will go live on the webstore once they are finalized. For example, when the conquistadors go on preorder, expect a bundle deal with command packs and cavalry from the peculiar companions spanish range.

3. I am not the designer of any of these kits. I am a licensed seller of physical prints for forest dragon, and now others (Again, adding them to the webstore, need a few days for it to reflect all the new products we are adding.)

That said, the man-of-war esque fleets have been discussed on the forest dragon patreon page for additional fleets. I'll let FD know we have interested parties.

That bundle idea is great. Reminds me of the old boxes of plastic troops with metal characters…but with 3D printed characters.

Exactly the idea

I don't think it's anything we haven't seen here weeks ago.

They are what was revealed a few weeks back

Hmm... not too impressed with the goths... the spears and shields are too small. More like javelins and bucklers. Looks useful, but not as good as expected.
In this case, Victrix seems to come out on top.

Isn't this kit supposed to pull double duty as a command box for the upcoming army builder set?

Lmao the teacup

I'd ask if the sprue comes with some roast beef but seeing as Wargames Atlantic are refusing to provide a camembert sprue to go with the Les Grognards wine bottles, I'm sure it would be a waste of time.

Bangers and mash?

I would call that a nickname for a grenade launcher!
