Any chance we will be seeing Chronopia as well? It was essentially the fantasy version of Warzone, and is the best
miniature game (rules wise) I have ever played.

I am sure with success at the rebirth of one, they may attempt the other, one thing at a time, afterall, they are still emerging back out of the rebirthing necro-chamber

Yeah, as much as I love Chrono, let another company handle it or give Prodos a good few years (and maybe a Kickstarter). Because the best case scenario when a small company starts juggling properties is Spartan, where they just ignore some of them for a few months to a year. The worst case is the company bites off more than it can chew and dies. Them focusing on one product is the way to achieve success. Privateer Press didn't even branch out to a spin-off game until they were well and truly established, and that was a big mark in their favour. That is the kind of steady growth, focus and support I am hoping for from Prodos.

If another company picks up and starts producing Chronopia again, then I will be ecstatic and buy up every bloody thing they make. If Prodos does it (in less than two-three years, at least) then I will be worried that the company will lose focus and implode.

Agreed. Small companies and too many games is bleh. This is from someone who likes Uncharted Seas but knows that it appears to be on the back burner of spartan

Yeppers! I say let us see how well the guys at Prodos do with MC first before they even try to go past I want to see all the factions of MC established and a good range for each as there were some good ideas for each. Liking already the the new Dark Soul stuff and the Cybertronic Corp stuff so far.

Bauhaus and Capitol as well as Mishima and the Brotherhood need some re-work, Can't wit to see how they all come along.

Did you miss the part where they said that there would be rules for using 25mm bases even though 30mm bases were preferred?

P.S. Everyone I know who bought the Dreamforge storm troopers did it for role playing game figures.

No I didn't miss that. But what if people want to use their new 30mm based warzone minis for 40k! This is my point. I've got a crap load of bases so to me it doesn't matter, but it will to other people.

Right, because every game should be backwards-compatible with 40k... Get over yourself.

He actually has a good point. I buy a lot of stuff that I can justify to myself (and the wife!) by working out if they can easily do double-duty. Sedition Wars, Judge Dredd, and on and on. As solkan said, bases don't bother me personally, but you want the figures to be as easily cross-compatible as possible. Check out the Dystopian Legions thread to see what I'm talking about.

Also...

Option nr1

Now that is a nice render

Just a small but trivial matter you might want to consider, but would you think about adding links to Warzone Resurrection's Facebook page, site, forums etc. to your sig here on Dakka? It would make it easier to catch up on developments there.

Anyone know who is involved in Prodos Games?

EDIT:

Names and addresses removed at the request of Prodos

(if anybody wants to find them just look for the companies house registration)

So the actual production is done in Poland, with UK responsible for marketing, distribution and other things?

As to all that discussion about 25/30mm bases and conversion rules: It is nice that you as company care about such things but it is for me a big waste of rulebook space and your time. I would rather see in that place some awesome pictures etc. If you decided for 30mm than stick to it. Rules and miniatures are what makes this new WZ edition success or failure. Learn from all GW/PP etc. mistakes and never repeat them. Learn from all GW/PP good moves and copy them to death.

25mm rules are a must, as many diehard fans still have the miniatures. Switching to 30mm bases would be optional.

Yeah, a base-switch is really all that would be needed for most. Warzone was always to the "very heroic" end of the 25/28mm spectrum (which is to say, it is basically 30/32mm). Only the 2nd Edition starter box plastics ever went for true-scale 25/28mm and they look weedy next to even my 2nd Edition metals.

One thing I love about CAD design is that it is a lot better at eliminating the scale-wobble that hand-sculpting sometimes gets (looking at you Infinity ).

I think CAD design is a must now! It's a great tool, you can use it to keep scale consistent (looking at you guardsmen and a lot of the old warzone stuff), it helps in laying out plastic spues to the point where plastic miniatures are really looking good now. The minis that dreamforge produced in CAD are amazing and it cuts the costs so that now even small shops can start producing killer products. I think we will be seeing the end of greens very soon, for anything but mochups, and even that will get phased out at the technology grows.

is that the barrel of a gun? your showing us the barrel of a gun? I'm trying to think of a pithy punch line but can't think of anything.

anyway on a more serious note I can't get that excited about this as I did with the other snap shots it really doesn't show much. I'm still excited about the overall project though

Gotta agree here. It's a barrel of a gun. With some stray mesh sticking out. I can't even tell what gun this is. I'm assuming something from BL.

Give us more printed stuff like the Razide. That's proper crack...

I'm such a keener I've already begun the arduous task of re-basing all my old Capitol figures.

I figure so long as I have something fully-painted to jump into the rules with, it'll allow me to paint up a force (or seven) of the new figures at my own pace.

And if it turns out that I like the old rules better, there's nothing in the old rulebooks saying what size the bases are at all. In fact, as I recall, everything was on a 25mm anyway (whether it should've been or not; *cough* Razides *cough*)

Insta boner

MC coming back makes me all happy inside

This. Also, a big waste of space? How much space do you think it'd actually take?

Oh yeah, that's much better. I think this new direction is growing on me.

I do have to note again that the stances feel a bit to samey. Will there be no more variation in poses?

Love 'em! They remind me a lot of an updated version of the black & white interior art from Mutant Chronicles (the RPG). I do kind of miss the classic Cybertronic weapons a little, though they were a bit incongruous with the rest of the setting (looked like they were designed by Shirow Masamune actually). But the guys themselves are brilliant, a big improvement over the Mk1 Chasseurs/People's Volunteers. And the full view actually makes them look a lot sleeker as well. I could see them done up with a chromed armour look from classic cyber, it would be brilliant.

And I can see a lot of AdMech players wanting some to do Skitarii grunts.

Oddly, they also remind me of Syntha from Void/Urban War. But that shouldn't surprise me, considering who I-Kore descended from. Syntha did always feel like Cybertronic v2.0.

yes, 3 variants of legs, 3 torso, 5 arms , 2 weapons, 8 heads in one pack,
each pack is 5 models.

now legs can be rotated ±90°
depending on torso/leg mix you will get more/less dynamic position
in general 720+ combinations for one model, like for skirmish should be ok ?

AND all of that for price of Jack Daniel's! ))



Soon painted version!

Looks good but why aren't they wearing armor?

Dermal plates seems more armor than a wifebeater
