Hi Everyone - This is Tony of Defiance Games. We're a new company starting up to do hard plastic SF sets with US manufacturing.

We are launching a game - Alien Suns - that will feature fast-and-brutal combat between a variety of future combatants. The game is set in 2272 and features future Earth nations, corporations, and aliens.

Our very first sets are going to be alien bugs - there are two varieties coming. The first are all tooth and claw and fight in hordes. The next will feature bio-engineered weaponry and sophisticated command-and-control that is a match for the USMC, French Foreign Legion, German special forces, and other militaries of human space.

This is a work-in-progress render - please let us know what you think. Sizing is heroic 28mm but in this case the bug is a touch smaller than a human (think - he needs to crawl through ductwork!)

Please let us know what you think as we finalize the design - all criticism and ideas are welcome!

Thanks guys,
Tony

Sounds pretty interesting. I hope it works out for you guys.

I will check out your stuff in more detail when I get home from work.

Looks good so far. I look forward to keeping track of your progress on the game
