While this is all interesting, the real question is: “When are the Quar going to be available?”

No release date information, however HQ says they are still in progress.

Awesome to hear. I was half joking but I appreciate the response

I'm going to say 2 factions each with Infantry, Cavalry, Heavy Weapons and Ogres. Feel free to make fun of me later.

A Death Fields starter box type thing?

Guess we find out on Monday.

You forgot the rest 👍

That... Looks promising!

I would buy plastic Quar!

Games Workshop: Nah, we're not going to release a Renegades&Heretics army

That was my question too but then I stumbled into a whine bunch of metal Quar for a good price. Might not even use them all -and I'll probably spring for a few plastic- but my Quar needs have been well seen to.

I hope they tell us when the Quar are two weeks away so we can make all the puns.

Looking closely at the silhouette and based on some of the visual cues I think it is vaguely possible we're looking at some sort of spiky evil human army.

I'm really excited for this, my Iron Warriors could use some chaff to storm the walls.

WA already gives good value for the money so I'm hoping this crowdfunding will be a nice way to pick up an entire army.

Well, this is... interesting



Ok, Im gonna fall. Female infantry and command squad are the correct guesses, and the other 2 remaining kits are a Men Chaos Rabble and female Chaos Rabble

I'd go for "not-Vraks so much cheaper than the now OOP Forgeworld version coming at the right time for the Heresy Militia list " army.

Female versions of those guys seem rather unnecessary, given that their costume is bulky and ill-fitting enough to hide body shape and their faces aren't visible. It's possible there will be some more scantily-clad 'rabble' which come in male and female varieties, but the basic infantry don't look like they need different models for different genders.

I suspect that the correct guesses were command (seems like a sure thing) and a vehicle (a bigger leap, but it's a very broad category, including small stuff like buggies, scout walkers, etc.)

One of the sneak peaks (upper right next to the cavalry) has a shell which seems too big for a standard mortar. Possibly some kind of larger artillery piece? Could either be a carriage-mounted weapon or a vehicle.

Other possibilities: midget scout-snipers, mutants (possibly bestial mutants), animals (probably dogs), special characters (like psis or assassins), or more vehicles.

My guesses (something of a wish-list, really) are going to be command squad (possibly including options for medics, enforcers, and psis), a large multi-purpose vehicle kit (which can build an APC, light tank, or SPG), midget snipers, and mutant attack dogs (which will be the one they didn't expect to be guessed).

Regardless, I'm almost certainly going to back this and try to get at least one of every kit. The previews look absolutely fantastic.

Is anyone else curious about which company they are partnered with for this? Style-wise, looks like it could be Anvil Industry.

my question is not which company, so long it is not an outright scumba company, my question is, when can i shovel money in low ammounts (considering average WGA pricing) down their throat and get my unskilled mittens on the pieces of plastic.

I'm mildly curious to see how partnering with another company will affect the price per standard human figure. It's not at all unaffordable, but they hit $2 each with Space Nam.

I assume the partner's desire for figure options (affecting how many will fit in a box), profit sharing and desire not to completely undercut the price of their existing lines could all figure into it.

I mean, it doesnt have to be all full vraks heads, i bet therell also be enough unmasked heads for a full unit, with mutations and the such.

I thought about vehicles too, with a transport around there, but WA doesnt seem very interested on releasing vehicles, am i right?

Alltho, i coincide about dogs and chaos rabble options where they could put a feminine variant, one of those two might actually be on the final project.

vehicles (decent ones anyway) will need a lot more sprues/sprue space than troops so would need to be sold for a higher price,

and may well be less popular than troops in terms of how many boxes you'll sell to each buyer, also meaning a higher price

and based on what Hudson has said were the challenges in getting the US casting folk up to speed and able to match what the previous Chinese casters were able to do, giving them something where the sprues and plastic flow will be significantly different from what they can now do probably means a lot more time getting that aspect of things right too

so i think it's not so much a lack of interest more a sensible business move for now (but if the KS does well that might give them the leeway to bypass these issues, if not immediately but maybe on a subsequent one to add vehicles to a 'complete' line of troops)

With the Russian Technolog line now basically out of reach for most of us there is a niche for a cheap vehicle line.

A mini APC or tank can be done on one sprue, if the Russians could do it so can WGA.

Oh 'allo

Sweet! I can see many not Blood Pact armies in the future.

The space nam price was not up to Wargames Atlantic. That was a reptilian overlords decision, as it is their kit. Wargames Atlantic manufacturers it.

I hope this isn't a limited run because as soon as I financial recover from this month's bills, I want that.

These are still multi part kits, correct?

Crap. I went big on Zombicide and was saving for the next Assassin's creed kickstarter, but I will likely spend my Assassins creed money on the WA kickstarter. Oh, well...

Get me the codex department please:
Hey, Joe. It’s Pete. Looks like a US company is going to make some very affordable chaos humans in plastic in the next few months or maybe a year.

Yeah. I know. It could really mess up our FOMO strategy.
People buying from anywhere else but us is a nonstarter.

What do we do?
Why we nerf bat the hell out of any army that could use them and make more marines.

Okay. Oh, while I have you on the phone, what does the AI think about our idea to make editions only valid for two years…

Interesting, in light of...

a secret project in partnership with a well-known tabletop gaming content brand.

... Are we to assume the kit design, contents and price are primarily in WGA hands?

That looks fantastic. I don't have use for another IG Army, but I should at minimum be in for a set of rough riders, something my gas masked IG Army is sorely lacking.

Very excited.

They said they were in partnership with miniwargaming. What do they do?

Play and call it work?

I don't know if this is the correct MiniWarGaming, but they have on Gamefound this project, Ravaged Star: Armies of the Veil-Touched. They also do Youtube videos, and I found a completed Indiegogo campaign that upgraded their studio and equipment.

Since the Veil-touched are reminiscent of Chaos Marines with some demon retainers, I suppose MiniWarGaming could partner with WGA to make Veil-tainted human troopers. MWG doing the design, and WGA producing the final product.
