Genuinely mysterious bits from the sneak preview. The shoulder pads suggest Death Fields, but don't match the style of any existing team (closest would seem to be the Damned, which would match the damage and different rivet count between two models). The guns seem at least close to real-world ones if not direct copies (the automatic pistol seems to have the basic features of a 1911, the shotgun looks familiar but I can't place it, the revolver seems a bit more weird and isn't anything I recognise). At a guess, these are for the same range as the the generic modern civilians, but more of a 'Mad Max' style wasteland raider faction.

Looks like the shoulder pads for the American troops from Marcher. The weapons would fit their Alt-1940's style as well.

Lovely dwarfs.

I'll get a box even though I just need half a dozen stands for my mercenary army.

Same, it's been the usual long past deadline but I have all the hype still!

I've been paaaatiently waiting to ask about an ETA for general release of The Damned products (didn't want to be annoying and do it too far in advance of actual backers starting to get their stuff).

Any estimates? We looking at a couple of months, or like 6+ months?

I really want a Mauler and a Terrae Motus.

Shipping for US ks backers (from the US production site) should be any time soon (they've had the last call for address changes), with shipping to the rest of the world following a few weeks later (from the UK production site)

so i'd hope to see the first general releases coming September/October time, but it's going to be a few kits at a time rather than a dump of the whole lot so where the vehicle would fit into the schedule i'm not sure

More delays, something to do with the heavy infantry sprue this time.

Holy crap. Proper, hoofed, naked goatmen. After 25 years, my BälSäc warband for GWAR: Rumble in Antarctica can finally have appropriate henchmen. Thank you!

There are distinct differences from the Marcher American shoulder pads though. The Marcher US ones all have two rivets per side, while the sneak peek ones have a variable number. The sneak peek ones look rounded on the top, while the Marcher US ones are straight. Marcher US ones are concave at the front while sneak peak ones are straight. Sneak peak ones cover most of the upper arm, while Marcher US ones only cover about half of it and have pockets visible underneath. Finally, Marcher US arms have some kind of vambrace, while the sneak peak ones have what look like folded over coat cuffs. They don't seem to match any of the other Marcher faction either.

Are they *really* satyrs if they do not have massive schlongs?

Ok, their 10mm figures are amazing. I think I'll make a bunch of 10mm armies and use them to play Kings of War, as multi-basing suits this kind of style better, and use my regular 28-32mm miniatures for Warhammer: The Old world. I can't wait to see what else they make!

Welcome to the Arena: Death Fields Arena Beta Launch and Community Playtest Invitation
At Wargames Atlantic, we have always believed that wargaming is at its best when it’s a shared experience — not just on the tabletop, but in creating the worlds, rules, and stories that bring our miniatures to life. With that in mind, we’re incredibly excited to announce that Death Fields Arena is now in Beta Playtest, Version 1.0 — and we want you, our community, to join us from the very beginning, which you can do by downloading the rules, right now, for free.

The main idea behind this release is simple yet important: we want the community to start playtesting early. We aren’t just seeking feedback — we want insights from players who have rolled the dice, manoeuvred teams, and genuinely tested the game on the tabletop.




There’s also a generic faction template, allowing you to get creative and test your builds and ideas for teams right from the start. We intend to add more factions, abilities, traits, and equipment as quickly as the community requests, with the generic team available throughout testing before being withdrawn prior to the general release.

This means the game will evolve rapidly, and your input will help drive that evolution.

A few key things to note as you jump in:
Small Teams, Big Impact
Teams are deliberately kept small. Every model is important. Each team member is vital and should feel like a personal asset you oversee. Understanding their strengths and timing their activations will be key to success.

Master Combat Effectiveness and Activation Phases
The quicker you understand how Combat Effectiveness (CE) impacts a team member’s stats and how the Activation Phase cycle determines when they act, the sooner you’ll be able to assert your authority across the arena floor!

[more info at the link above so please visit WGA if you're interested in taking part or learning more]

I've read through the rules. The mechanic of combat effectiveness seems fun.

What do you all think?
