@Barzam - I also redesigned the entire Stahlhelm to make it actualyl look like a Stahlhelm. I wasn't paying close attention to the reference images and the first version looked a bit like a fire fighters hat..

@Formerly Wu - I'm planning two new arms sets (contractor, and medieval) and each set will launch with all the different arm sprues - around 26 different poses ( I know because I ran out of letters to use) for each.

@MLaw - Yeah, its a good idea and something I would like to do, I agree there is a need for it.
The most likely outcome is a single sprue of civilian heads, civilian torsos, and one mixed leg set - 5 different poses, as thats a manageable amount of work.

We will probably make some sets up with mixed small arms and fatigue/bare arms.

Regiments fans - Have a look at our new Interactive Designer -

its a first version, still lots of features to add, but gives you an idea and includes all the new Trench Fighter parts!

Regiments Interactive Designer

Click to rotate, mouse wheel to zoom, RMB to pan.

Use the menus to load different parts.

That is a damn fine resource to have on hand. I like that you also have a lot of new bits snuck in. There's some neat bits in there.

My one request with the new parts previewed, would you be able to add an equipment harness to some of the winter bodies? The buttoned and open trench coats have them, but the winter version doesn't.

Yeah, that's awesome. It's well past time I put an order in with you guys... love those SAS gasmasks. Wish they'd been around when I did my tempestus scions!

Awesome looking stuff! Can't wait to see what you come up with next.

Just wondering, have you considered making some not-volkite weapons in human or marine scale? I know the 30k crowd would be all over that.

Oh my goodness it's perfect!



Have my babies Anvil Industries!

I cannot wait. From just about every zombie game to d20 modern, Specter Operations, OSC (Evil Bear) etc etc.. great news!

EDIT: That tool is AWESOME! I've been playing with it for a while. I am curious about pistol CCW options and whether options previewed there show the guns and arms as they will be provided though. Do the arms come with poses actually holding the guns as if they are firing or only like they're standing in parade formation?

The arms are already released, except the Trencher arms, and the pose shown is just one of the poses in the sets. Probably because it doesn't obscure the heads much.

My understanding was it was a tool to preview a build so people aren't waiting until their order arrives to figure out if it looked like they hoped. Many of the items in it do look like they're already released, I was just thinking it would be nice to be able to visualize any loadout we could order.

Morning all,

Thanks for the feedback on the viewer, we will be adding lots more features soon, including specialist weapons.

The intention is simply to provide an image of what a basic soldier looks like with a given load out of parts.
The rifle poses chosen are those which give the best view of the arms, torso and weapon.

The majority of parts there are our existing products.

There are 10 new Trencher Heads, 4 Trencher Torsos, 3 new leg styles and 2 new guns.

The leg styles will have the full 13 unique poses by the time I am finished with them, just like the existing sets.

The new arms are the "fatigue" style" but are cast as one piece with the guns (to allow the rifle stock instead of a pistol grip).

This means if you want to use either the Trencher Shotgun or Phase Carbine, you have to use fatigue arms, but there will still be 10 different arm poses for each gun, so lots of variety!

@Barzam - Yes There will be torso variants, the Winter coats will include some with more webbing. I'll be getting full renders of the final products released during the Pre-Order period (which hopefully starts later today- it was meant to be yesterday but technical difficulties..)

@MrFlutterPie - That's not currently a service we offer, but you can purchase quality miniatures from us..

So, to clarify my own confusion, the irregulars from this release are not the traitors/renegades mentioned in the "planned future releases" section of the Regiments page, right?

In a way, selling miniatures is sorta like having someones babies... Tiny resin babies...

Thats correct Jack,

The Irregular torso and heads in the Trench Fighters line up will be sprues with very ragged looking and varied/individual equipment, but nothing evil or traitorous.

The idea is to create militia or veteran units which have been in the field for months or years and have deviated significantly from whatever "uniform" they started off with.

The Traitors and Renegades will be a full line up of torsos, heads and guns positively dripping with pure evil. I'm hoping to do themed sets to suit various types of evil..

But thats a while away yet so I cant give any more info yet.

As you know I have been looking forward to this for a long time - and I can only say those previews only sparked the desire to own!!!

All he needs is an AK style rifle and this guy'd make a pretty good Snow Serpent. Glad to hear there'll be some torsos with more webbing for this type.

Great to hear. I recently started working on a 40k Renegades & Heretics army, so I'm excited to hear more once you've started working on them.

Thanks Manus!

@Barzam - Ill do an AK style rifle in the next wave of Trench Fighter parts (which will contain primarily new small arms and spcial/heavy weapons)

I guess I'll just settle for these sweet new Trench Raider figures.

I want to play around with the finish on the jacket. I am thinking of a semi gloss finish to help give it a chemical suit vibe.

Well guys,

The Trench Fighter parts are up for Pre-Order for a two week period starting today.

Use the Platoon builder here to get a command squad, two infantry squads, plus as many extra squads, weaponry and equipment as you need!

Pre-Order might ship before christmas, but most likely January.

Anyone who Pre-Orders will get a free limited edition Commissar model which I will preview next week, plus shipping guaranteed at least two weeks before general release.

If you dont like the parts once you see the final resin, we offer 100% no hassle refunds.

Use the 3D designer here to look at all the options available -

http://www.regiments-designer.com/

Then place your pre order HERE

Any questions about the Pre-Order or the platoon builder product, ask away and I will try and answer asap.

Cheers

Joel

Mmmmmm yes, I like this. I like this alot. I may have just have to re-do my Guard army, as I went for a Russian theme but used Cadians. If GW doesn't do plastic trench fighters looks like this will be my best option. I've liked all of your guys stuff thus far. The commissar will the be the big factor in whether I pre-order or not.

Do we pay now or in January when they ship?

What models come as cannon fodder, can't find it explained on the site, cheers.

Morning all,

@Ultimentra - I'm hoping to have a render of the Commissar up by mid next week.

In fact, I am hoping to have renders of all the finished parts including most of the poses, available before the end of the Pre-Order period, so anyone who is on the fence will be able to make a more informed choice.

@Mr FlutterPie - We are taking payment now. The earlier people pay, the nearer the front of the queue they are and the faster they get the stuff.
We dont want anyone to end up with models they don't like, so we will be happy to offer 100% no hassle refunds or make minor selection changes, after we have put up all the final renders.

@Stonned_Astartes - I was just editing to make it clearer when we realised there is actually no difference between the Cannon Fodder and the basic infantry squads.

To make it simpler, we've taken the option out and increased the max infantry squads to 10 - they get cheaper the more you add, ending a £2 per model, which is really incredible value for a multi part resin model. (fair when people are spending hundreds of pounds)

FFFffffffffff

Got me some legs and jetpacks, Anvil my wallet hates you. Oh yeah, IDK if you guys check your facebook messages or not but I sent you guys some pictures of some Secutarii Peltast stuff (FW Skitarii Vanguard kits) I kitbashed with bits from your range, including the Tesla Carbines and Gothic Void torsos. Man that stuff is amazing. I think when you guys were still spitballing your regiment range to dakka like 50 pages back I was asking "please do something compatible with Skitarii!" and you definitely did that. If I ever find the time to do a full review I will.

Ooh, I've been thinking about doing this - would love to see your pics, can you share them here as well?

AH, is a Platoon the minimum size for a Trench Fighter pre-order?

Looked like that to me too. Any chance we can just get 10 Joel?

Nicky J here's a link-

I can't recommend the Tesla carbines, and Gothic Void torsos enough. They are great pieces. I also used the armored standard regiment arms and the (I think discontinued) regiment-sized mechanical/bionic legs. I think they said something about redoing that piece because their mold wore out. But yeah these pieces make really badass alternate Skitarii stuff.
