No news on them yet they are being resculpted based on the most recent feedback and to work for plastic. They will most likely be on a 1/2 frame (like the halflings) with several of those in a box but until sculpting is final, checked over by the engineering team, and laid out we won't know the specifics.

Because I enjoy choices and kitbashing.

3d printed Death Fields Highlander kitted out with a plastic Bulldogs noggin and GW Cadian current weapons and old version webbing.



I'm looking forward to the upcoming digital Death Fields Zulus and Finns (hopefully imagined as future tech cold weather sharpshooters).?

What's next? Potentially, some of the stl Royal Navy Brigade printed out and tooled up with Cannon Fodder lasrifle arms for starship crew.

It is surprisingly difficult to find plastic shields sold separately.

I remain baffled by the decision to produce 21 apparently identical shields on a sprue, rather than 21 slightly different designs. Although most (possibly all) European shields of the era were round with central handle protected by a boss, there was a lot of variety in size (from just over a foot to over three feet across), boss shape (although the round dome was most common, some were more or less pointed, and many had a 'button' at the apex, while some from the early migration period are actually spiked), rim (most were unrimmed, but many had a metal or leather rim, or metal binding clips holding the leather facing in place), facing (usually linen or leather, but some may have had uncovered wood), backing (bare wood with a single metal strip holding the wooden planks in place may have been common, but some shields seem to have been made of plywood with no strips, while others had wooden 'ledges' holding them together), and flatness (most were totally flat, but many were convex). Many shields were decorated with metal studs, discs, bands, strips, and 'lozenges' on the face, and some seem to have had large leather decorations, including spirals, crosses, and possibly figurative designs.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11628360.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11628360.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024 40k but they do look good]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11628563.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11628563.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024 BTW what happened to Trolls?

Well, You could buy a sprue of the Wargames Atlantic horses, a sprue of Persians and then a sprue of the chariots (when they reach the sprue vendors) and cobble a Persian Chariot... It may not be 100% accurate, but Its now (or soon will be) an option.

I try not to post in here for various reasons. However:

1. Sprue vendors have already started adding the sprues a-la-carte for preorder.

2. Presumably warlord has the mold and or usage of the numidian sprue and decided not to bring them back. I agree with you the basic tunic look of the bodies would be useful.

This might be superseded by the Roman civilian sprue that wargames Atlantic did recently for a skirmish game (whenever they come out regularly)]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11629339.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11629339.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024 http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11629352.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11629352.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

I generally agree. I don't see any reason that dark age fighters would all have the exact same shield.

Ideally a set like this would have something like 3 each of 7 different design per sprue. With a mix like that, I'd buy it just to have around.
As is, I just don't see buying it unless I need a ton of identical shields. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11629414.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11629414.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

I had the same feeling, shields are nice, but I don't need a box or even a sprue of identical ones.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11629473.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11629473.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024
We know that this is completely intentional given the amount of times people asked about why there is only one gas mask head on the preview and the answer from WGA was that they were all the same design.

Other companies tend to make variants with damage or decoration added, so the base design doesn't get too repetitive, but unfortunately that is not the case here.

The damned seem to bring a few variants in terms of head/helmets with the face covered, but I am guessing we will still see a lot of repetition.

Something like the old 8 shield sprue from the GW marauders would be better in my opinion, the base shield is still all the same design, but each one has different decorations or damage added and while using one of those designs several times might become repetitive after some time, it is still easier to make those 3d bits different with paint rather than paint or place decals on dozens of shields that all look the same.
If they wanted to keep the base shields flat and simple they could have added those decoration bits around the sprue, swapping some shields for those bits.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11629525.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11629525.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024 http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11629530.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11629530.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

given the number of times i see folk looking for multiple copies of the shield, head, etc for their army projects i could see there being an equal number of complaints if we did get a sprue of 8 (even slightly) different designs

and depending on how different they were it could make sculpting of the rest of the kit harder if all of them had to be checked against a range of standard poses (and we have seen issues with arm/weapon pairings not working right with some of the WGA kits even when they have presumably been checked so less complications are certainly good in this regard)]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11629797.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11629797.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

You will have to forgive the terrible lighting. This photo was taken on the shop floor where we don't keep any fancy photography equipment for obvious reasons. As soon as I have the frame in hand I'll take some batter shots for you and get another update out.

Still, the sprue looks great and I'm very much looking forward to this. Nice variety of non-extreme poses, the space AK's look good and a solid selection of GW-compatible special weapons. This bodes well for the Ogres...

I do like a bit of kitbashing fun.



Les Grognards cavalry rider and armoured horse head, given a Bulldogs cap head and mounted on a GW Pistoliers horse to give me Terrax Guard Rough Riders. These will be added to my small Terrax Guard force kitbashed with Les Grognards infantry and Bulldogs heads.

Why the GW horse? For me, the WGA horses are a wee bit small (in other words, realistically proportioned for historical kits) to fit in with my other 'heroic' 28mm cavalry. Purely a personal view.

I am hoping though that the mounts for The Damned cavalry are more 'heroic' scale.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11630511.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11630511.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

Make the Conquistador Cavalry a Reality in Hard Plastic!
We have a winner! Conquistador Cavalry has moved out of voting and is now up for pre-production order!

This set beat out the other 11 with an impressive 1872 votes on Vox Populi. We now have to hit our pre-production goal of $6,000 to send it to tooling!


RIDE THEM DOWN!

The Spanish used the shock factor of horses and mounted men to great effect in their conquest of the New World. In one instance, Cortez was able to route an entire Aztec army by leading a charge of five horsemen agains the Aztec command. These models are also suitable for conflicts in Europe in the late 15th and early 16th centuries.

This hard plastic box set will allow you to build armored and unarmored riders and horses with a wealth of head and weapon options. We are also hoping to add arquebusier options. And a doggie if he fits!

Final part inclusions will depend on frame layout once it is designed but this set will have 12 full cavalry models.


Well, I have been looking forward to these... 12 to a box... the Damned only get 9 cavalry to a box. .

EDIT: Hope the doggo stays on it... And I do hope that pistols make it too, even if not historically accurate. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11632898.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11632898.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

I was thinking that too... but that picture is pretty old. It looks like the same teaser they showed 2 years ago... so hopefully some things have been worked on in those 2 years... It also says 12 riders to a box, but shows 5 bodies... *SHRUG* so no idea.

Edit: Unless it really is 5 bodies to a sprue since the blurb says you can make armored or unarmored riders... so maybe 5 riders bodies per sprue (2 armored, 2 unarmored and 1 command?) with 3 sprues to a box... and 12 horses... ? No idea... but 20 rider bodies for 12 cavalry kind of fits in with the extra stuff in the Skeletal cavalry design philosophy. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11632937.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11632937.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024 http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11632971.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11632971.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024 SP]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11633088.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11633088.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024 WIP but I'm guessing modular robots at long last.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11633099.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11633099.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

It looks like 7 torsos to a sprue... If all of those make it. They said the box will be able to make 12 cavalry guys... So I am not sure if these updated parts represent final stuff or not... only 3 armored horse heads... and it is looking like 2 of these sprues to a box? But 2 doggos is exciting... But only 1 fully enclosed head... and the comments had a ton of people commenting that pistols SHOULD NOT be on the sprue... :( So I guess they listened and decided against them.

Thanks we're trying! The goal here is to continue to increase the number of new plastic set releases each month. The sales team is doing a fantastic job getting us into more stores which in turn helps to pay for more plastic sets so as long as that all continues we'll keep making as many as we can and maybe someday we'll have the luxury of taking some risks on things like buildings and even more obscure plastic sets (yeah, I know we're already doing some pretty obscure stuff!)

The Quar game is out next - on pre-order now.
WW1 Russians will be on pre-order soon and out later this month also
Then it's Afghan Cavalry and 25mm textured 3mm x 25mm bevel bases
After that it's the BEF set (which just completed tooling)
Then either 3 or 4 secret sets are in the pipeline
Then it will most likely be the Conquistador Cavalry as long as the back and forth with part changes/additions/drops all goes well.
Then all The Damned
After that it's a bit more loose but Werewolves, Spanish Guerrillas, Plains Indians, and some more Death Fields are all in the works.

Agreed. Give that face walrus whiskers and he'd do as Colonel Blimp (or any other middle aged British Royal Army officer of field grade or above). I have no problem using said head for my Victorian SF collection, but it has no place in my high fantasy Elven army.

Old Westphalia goat Knights are my favorite halfling cavalry... for Halflings that look like a real fighting force and not just lumpy joke fighters. Not that that is bad... but I liked the seriousness of them. Now a rooster cav would be cool too. Especially if they are terror chickens...

Going to disagree only to say that Mantic's size for halflings is definitely bad. Completely incompatible with any other range for the simple reason that they are far too big. They really are just chubby slightly-shorter-than-normal humans.

I was mildly disappointed that the WGA Halflings are roughly in scale with GW LOTR and little else, but that is probably a wise choice. For some size comparisons to WGA halflings this might be useful.

I agree. They match up with Reaper, Midlam and the few old Westphalia ones I have. I actually dont like them with the lotr ones as the Lotr ones have tiny heads. The WA haflings are perfect size for my stuff. I actually just assembled 8 halflings today... found a spare sprue and some bits and was in a halfling mood.

So, the Halfling cav still has a way to go though... :(

Those all look good together. My general rule is if the heads and weapons look around the same size then I am ok with some minor height differences.

Conquistador Cavalry Update!
As soon as the Conquistador Cavalry set met it's $6000 goal in Vox Populi we started to do the final refinements, part additions, and organization of the files to get it ready for a final layout.

Many of you called to add pistol arms and more full helms to the set. Rob has given some options for both matchlock and wheel-lock pistols here. [ ]

Thats not technically true. The only-games listing comes with mutliple of the helmeted head, for example. Generally though, you are correct.

Do you have an actual parts list as to what the set comes with? The only thing the Only-games listing says is

Printed kit comes with enough parts for 3 halfling Cavalry.


If it has 3 helmets... I would buy the set. The only thing that indicates what parts are included is the picture... which only shows one Helmet.

Today we are taking a quick look at the final layout of The Damned Command frame.
We've had to make some really tough decisions over the parts that made it onto this sprue. There has been a lot of back and forth between the design team and the engineering team to ensure we put together the most comprehensive and versatile command sprue possible!

We've managed to include three human sized male bodies, a brute sized body and a female body plus all of the accessories needed to kit those models out!

Let us know your thoughts below!

I can also confirm that all parts that don't make it onto any of the final sprues will be made available for free too all backers as STL's!

Why are we talking about missing bits, again?

Look at how sparse this sprue is, much like GW used to make 10-15 years ago. Why not pack it with bits like GW is doing now? WGA should be trying to at least get close to its main competitor, not release substandard product missing a lot of what was promised when half of the sprue is empty. Yes, I get they can't match GW specializing slicing/packing tool but it would be trivial to fit at least dozen+ bits more here

Say, top right, you could put 4 different ogre heads there if the comically dumb horizontal left head didn't take all the space and was vertical, like the right one. Space right below, move horizontal comm backpack to the right and make it vertical, boom, space for 5 extra arms instead of current 2. 6A space, swap big and small torso, presto, room for 4-5 bits instead of just one arm. 4A space could be trivially condensed to half its size. Etc, etc, are WGA molding machines so bad compared to GW ones they can't do it or something else technical or is it just unwillingness to put in some extra work?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11650456.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11650456.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024
Their parts density has gone up from their first kits, and since they moved they're working with a new lot of engineers who may need to learn some lessons again. I hope they can carry on improving. Remember if they get the placement wrong the mould won't fill correctly and you're left with a sprue with miscast or missing parts and have to start again from scratch [Edit or if you can rescue it it can involve adding extra sprue gates with connection points in unfavourable places]

GW is large enough (and sells enough) to afford a higher failure rate in addition to having years more experience

for example look at a recent Renedra sprue (Ex-GW team who tool their old 3-up based tech when GW went digital) who have a ton of experience and still regularly produce stuff that's nowhere near as packed as a GW sprue



that said i'd certainly love it if WGA could fit more on the sprues, but i'm certain they would if they could, after all the more they can fit on the better value the kit looks and the better it will sell]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11650489.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11650489.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024 SP]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11650517.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11650517.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024 http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11650544.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11650544.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

Hi Ibris - I usually bite my tongue when I see posts like this but I think this is a good time to educate folks a little on how tooling works, why we do it the way we do, and why most plastic injection engineers laugh at the GW frames. First - here's an apples-to-apples comparison of the new Damned Infantry frame and the Imperial Guard frame from GW:


As you can see - our frame is slightly larger, but has many more parts than the GW one (even if you account for theirs being increased by the same %)
But what's somewhat more interesting is that their smaller frame weighs more than our larger one with more parts. And the reason is bad engineering.

Now I know I'm swimming against the current here because calling out GW is like calling out Coke or McDonalds or Mercedes - brands that are so locked into the zetigeist of our culture that they can do no wrong in the eyes of their fans...but the reality is that the way GW tools their frames is...not good.

You'll notice we use round runners to carry the plastic through the tool. GW has those half hexagon things that are much larger. The reason they're larger is because the shape doesn't work well for plastic flow. For some reason they have stuck with it - but they have to design around that runner shape to make their parts fill. That's why they have two injection points on the frame - they have to really force that plastic through the frame from two points whereas we can just use one and get a perfect fill.

They also have some oddness in their gates (the piece that touches the part that comes off the runners). You'll notice they have some quite large reservoirs in the gates. This too is to help the parts fill better because their oddly shaped runners aren't working well.

The end result is that there is way more plastic in the runners on the frame than there are actual parts. Those frames APPEAR to have more parts but that's because a lot of the white space is taken up by the huge honking runners twisting all over the place. No manufacturer can leave less than about 5mm of space around a part (in order to keep the integrity of the metal mold face) and because these types of parts are so organic they sometimes need more "white space" around them than they would if they were all uniform. There is also the consideration of balancing the mold whereby you need to make sure that the plastic is flowing relatively at the same rate throughout the frame and filling up all those parts even if one is a thin spear and another is a giant ogre body part. It's very hard to do. Anyone doing this kind of tooling is working at the top of the game in injection molding.

GW makes great models, they have great detail, but the way they make their frames is just not up to industry standards. They make it work - but it also takes them a lot to achieve a final tool. Ever notice those little dots in the corner of one of the frames? That shows how many times the tool had to come off the test press to fix something and make it work better. This particular one has 10 dots. We usually have our frames working after the second try - and a lot of times our guys nail it on the first test shots.

Do we think we're better than GW - no of course not. We're the size of their company toilet paper budget probably. Do we think our tooling is better? Yes 100%. Will we continue to get better. Also yes. We're five years in it will be really interesting to see what we look like in another 5. Now, don't get me started about GW's move to all mono-pose models!

Major Hottie is part of our forthcoming NSFW plastics range debuting this April 1.

Glad you like the bases - we think they'll be a hit as you can really just skip the whole putty, glue, flock thing and get right to painting.

I second the street bases. I'd also like desert rock like the Painted Desert of the US Southwest. So a low "mesa" type rock with gravel or sand on the rest of the base. Kinda of want cracked dry lake bed, but I rarely use that, and when I have, I've used crackle paint.

The new Space Marines!

Thanks for sharing that info on production and casting. GW is definitely out of date on those runners, also the number of times for a run to be successful. I always thought those dots were just QC read by a laser or something. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11652100.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11652100.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024 AoS and 40K, as well as Blood Bowl. The clear styrene flying stands are also 32mm. There's actually very few GW gigures still using 25mm round bases for anymore, most of it has swapped to either 32mm or to 28mm bases. 25mm is still pretty much standard for every other minis manufacturer though

Personally, I'd LOVE dungeon flagstone beveled 25mm bases, currently I make my own from Renedra's flat stone textured ones glued onto slimmer 3mm beveled bases. They look fantastic, but it's quite a lot of work. Even having 25mm rounds ready cast would save me a ton of effort.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11652102.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11652102.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024
I find the 32mm just a bit too large for most things I want to use my miniatures for, so I put my AOS stuff on 30mm. Makes it much easier for them to fit inside buildings etc. for skirmish settings and they don't look so ridiculous next to my old 25mm round stuff.

I use 30mm rounds in place of GWs 32s, as I use Renedra bases as I like their thinness, and 30mm is the closest they do. Also, GW 32s are actually 30mm wide on the top, so from a model fit perspective.there isn't any difference.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11652133.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11652133.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024
I am slightly concerned as to whether the textured grainy surface will glue well to flat-bottomed model feet and the potential for them to look like they're floating over the gravel. Issues not faced by the textured bases I've used from Proxie Models and Champ Industries where the bases are still essentially flat. Still, I have high hopes that a bit of strong solvent adhesive will make these issues moot.

Oh, and one more vote for Cobblestone pattern. A supremely useful texure for genres from far past/fantasy through modern times and into the future. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11652528.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11652528.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

Same... back when Miniature Market sold the old Confrontation Ragnarök bases for dirt cheap, I would buy a bunch every time I did an order.

UPDATE #51
3/22/2024 11:37 AM
New Artwork WIP, Terrae Motus Question for You, and More
Update #51
We have a few things to update you on this Friday including showing some new artwork, asking a question on the vehicle, and more.
Hello Everyone and Happy Friday!

We're back with some updates and a question for you as well!

First Mark Stacey is hard at work on the box illustrations for the 11 (Holy Moly We Still Can't Believe It!) sets that are in the works. Here is the uncolorized version of the Heavy Weapons team box illustration:





TERRAE MOTUS SIZE?
In regard to the Terrae Motus vehicle (pictured above) we are in ongoing refinements of the parts and optimizing the design for tooling. In doing this we realized we may have missed a critical need for the final vehicle: is there a physical tabletop footprint size that you would like us to match in order to work for your favorite games? Please comment below if you have thoughts on this.

SCHEDULE
As Charlie mentioned last week we have more sets in layout and you'll start to see a steady stream of these as we go to tooling one by one over the next few weeks and get into the home stretch. There are many balls in the air with this project as it's a typical project for us (with the exception of the vehicle which is a first for us in hard plastic) but with 11 all in the air at once!

Each one is now moving through at a steady pace one behind the other with file prep, layout, miniature painting and photography, and the artwork all being done concurrently. So you will start to see very fast movement on the 11 sets. We are close to having a more formal schedule for completion in place but just have to get past the layout stage first as that is the stage where the most back-and-forth happens between design, engineering, and the ultimate part needs for the frame (as you just saw with the Command frame).

This is the biggest thing we've ever done but so far (knock on wood) it's all moving along nicely! Thanks again for supporting us in this adventure! Until next week!

I think they're majorly dropping the ball on the vehicle, the original design was naff and said to be subject to change during the campaign, then there was complete radio silence about it literally from the last day of the campaign until today, and now it's just oops, what size should it be?


The vehicle is the only part of this that represents a "new thing" for us to tackle. We're making sure to get it right. Contrary to what a lot of people think, sculpting isn't the greatest time expenditure in a plastics project. It's typically the fastest bit. It's the file engineering, layout, mold balance, and all that technical stuff prior to tooling that takes the most time and effort. So now that we're in the stage where we're moving this part of the project ahead it's time to really lock it down, finalize the design, and get the buy in from the backers. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11652857.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11652857.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024 http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11652936.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11652936.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024 40k), which in turn depends on what armament it will have available.
I expect that most people are going to want to use it as a stand-in for the taurox (conceptually similar vehicle with a terrible model) so a dual-autocannon turret and dimensions of roughly 115mm long by 70mm wide would work well. Happily, those are also about the right dimensions for a rhino, aurox, or goliath truck. I doubt that anyone is going to run them as chimeras unless they are willing to do a lot of conversion work or you provide a very specific set of weapons which don't seem to fit the layout shown so far. Likewise, I see no indication that they will come with parts suitable for making any of the chimera-based artillery vehicles (basilisk, manticore, etc.). Ork players may want to use them to build trukks, and 115x70mm will work OK for that, but be a little small (but ork players will probably want to do a lot of conversion anyway and be more flexible when it comes to size).]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11652948.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11652948.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

or split the difference and go 82.5 mm for the width so it's midway between the two making it a plausible proxy for both (the taurox wasn't widely loved based on looks, but i don't remember it being popular in game either, has that changed?)

Three more of those secret sets will be shown off in the next 30-45 days. One for certain. Two as long as the illustrator is well enough to finish the cover paintings (he's been having a bit of a struggle but seems to be on the mend). Two others are in the middle of sculpting and will be later in the year. And there are a couple others too.

But the main push is on The Damned and making sure each individual set gets the right attention and we are maximizing the customization among them.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11653603.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11653603.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

Sort of. The large lipped bases popularized by Privateer Press and later used by many other companies and games are 30mm wide. What allot of folks don't know is that that are designed so that the top inset area is exactly the same 23mm diameter as the top of a traditional 25mm beveled edge slotta base.

You can see a comparison shot here with a few other base options.

I did not work on these sets. I want to make that clear.

And answer to your question, a medieval sergeant was a class of footsoldier. You can think of them like professionally trained peasant class men. Usually they would wear medium to heavy armor, and could be further specialized into infantry or cavalry roles.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11655116.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11655116.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

Would expect them to mainly have spears, mostly helmets (or chain coifs) but no greathelms such as the knights here, and a decent amount of armour - some chain, some padded gambesons. Guess they could have crossbows too, while I imagine the levy will be unarmoured (maybe interchangeable with sergeants for poorly armoured spearmen) and to have some bows, rounding the range out nicely.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11655120.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11655120.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024 man, do I need these models!

English military of that time a Serjeant was a professional warrior that was not a nobel, while a Levy was a conscripted warrior]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11655221.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11655221.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024 Re: Sergeant-at-Arms. Early medieval sergeants were essentially servants who could fight. What equipment they used was what their noble masters provided them. Later they became a mid-tier professional military: common-born, non-noble professional soldiers who were in service to the nobles and who filled a number of functions of the modern sergeant. Again, equipment was what they could afford (if a mercenary) or what their lord provided. As previously noted, they did not typically use great helms or other pieces of equipment associated with mounted knights. They might also use bows or crossbows unlike knights. [Use of missile weapons had a social stigma of cowardice or being ignoble among nobility in some times and places so knights usually did not use them in combat.]

As for modeling, use whatever armor you like, but not as complete or flash was what you are planning to model your knights in. Kettle hats are usually what most people think of men-at-arms and Sergeant-at-Arms as wearing. A cloth gambeson or cuir boulli might be worn instead of a chain hauberk, especially for those in service to poorer lords.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11655230.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11655230.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

Follow the link Kid Kyoto provided above and you'll see it is a pre-order at the WGA webstore.

As for helms with elaborate crests, try 3rd party vendors. The ones I use do not currently have any, but with the release of The Old World, I imagine there will soon be 3rd party bits being sculpted and 3d printed.

Yes, they even said they were consulting legal counsel. However, I'm sure when Victrix "copies" other companies, it's not really copying. When someone does it to Victrix, it's plagarism, when Victrix does it, it is original work. Between Victrix sculpting on the small side of historicals and their plagarism BS, I've stopped buying from them. [Although I admit it won't hurt them that much. Hardly buy historical these days anyway. And I'd only want a sprue of the WGA foot knights, so I'm not helping WGA too much outside of Death Fields.]

We'd like your input on the Terrae Motus vehicle and what to do with the design.
The last big hurdle to overcome for the project is the Terrae Motus vehicle.

This one JUST squeaked by in the last seconds of the campaign by $3,000. We ran a report and only 30 of the 1420 backers have added it to their pledge. So it seems like only 2% of you are interested in it.

We have to admit we are not in absolute love with the design and have been playing with ideas for it, but before we get too far we wanted to let you tell us what you wanted us to do.

We see three options:
1. Refine it but basically keep it as is
2. Change the design completely - perhaps to a tank or walker - we'd run a separate poll with concepts to decide this
3. Replace this with a new set of Damned power armor troops

Rob Macfarlane has worked up a concept for the power armor troops:


The power armor guys would have different head options so that you could make them all the same or mix it up within a unit. Shoulder pads would be "Damnified" and with plain versions as well. Concepts aren't final of course but this is what we were thinking would fit with the rest of the range.

We thought the best way to decide this was to have you vote - this vote is only open to the backers so it can't be influenced by outsiders. If #2 or #3 end up being chosen, we'd make the existing Terrae Motus design available as a free stl file set for those who want it.

Please let us know your wishes below! Also regarding schedule there is a lot in tooling now and we're just working out what the final timelines look like for everything. As we've said doing 11 all at once is a daunting task that's a little different than the 50 or so sets we've done all in singles or pairs in the past but we are getting there! We can't wait to unleash 11 full plastic sets on the world in one shot - just crazy! Thanks for helping us make this a reality!

I'll be voting for walkers. This is essentially an imperial guard army kickstarter and if the vehicle (which I was never impressed by) is not to be, then a not-Sentinel is the most sensible choice.

an alternate vehicle might be ok but i'd need to see it first, and even more so for a walker

i've got enough troops coming anyway that i don't need the power armour stuff (and i feel it fits less well with the rest of the concept).

If they became a future release for the line fine, but not in place of a vehicle which is the thing most in short supply in the hobby space

I suggested that if there really are only 30 of us who want a vehicle (how many folk are waiting to the last minute to finalise their orders once all the sprue layouts have been shown?) that maybe they way to do it would be for WGA to 3D print them for those that wanted them,

and one of their recent polls agrees with 27% of respondents wanting more half sprues if that mean more different releases,

and 65% preferring fewer full sprues even though that would mean only half the number of different releases

(although i suspect a degree of bias there with those wanting full sprues at least subconsciously thinking that the new stuff they want would be amongst that was made, not the stuff that got missed out on)

i'm sure this will advise their choices going forward]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11656765.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11656765.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

Yeah, despite the fact that fantasy is very frequently just a historical setting (in terms of technology, armaments, etc.), miniature companies have decided that never shall the twain meet.

My conclusion is that the historical market must be so large that it makes more sense to produce kits already produced in metal and plastic by other historical companies rather than produce something in a scale where they would be compatible with fantasy miniatures.

WGA could literally produce knights at half the cost of the plastic fantasy competition, but it just must not be worth it.

Thankfully there are a bunch of indie 3d mini sculptors who compete directly with GW for fantasy figures and getting them printed from Etsy shops is usually like 60-70% the cost of buying discounted GW.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11658218.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11658218.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

Why would something that already has acceptable quality kits on the market (granted, overpriced and no longer consistent with the Damned's aesthetic) be the most sensible choice over a not-Chimera, not-Aurox, or not-Taurox transport (none of which has a good-looking plastic kit) or a not-Leman-Russ (barely acceptable plastic kit) or not-Carnodon (resin only) tank? I think WA would really struggle to make a walker look better for the Damned than the old sentinels, while there is massive scope for improvement in transports and tanks.

Since they're practically non-existent, I guess the consensus is that plastic unarmed civilians wouldn't sell, and perhaps that's true - I have no business sense about these things. I can find some metal unarmed sci-fi civilians who are basically strolling about conducting their business. It still strikes me as a bit odd that unarmed civvies panicking and running in terror seem not to exist at all.

Is that because they would come too close to showing the real horrors and costs of war? I'm just talking about functionaries running away with terrified expressions, not families being blown apart.

Speaking of which, I used to use this heroclix mini (minus the #15 post) in Mars Attacks games whenever a soldier got blasted by a Martian ray gun, substituting it for the slain soldier figure for about a turn before removing it:



It added a thematically apt cinematic flair to the game. It's also about as far as I'd want to take a literal depiction of violence on the tabletop, but in the tongue-in-cheek context of Mars Attacks, where Martian laser weapons instantly and bloodlessly reduce people to cartoony skeletons, it was fun.

(The actual figure is supposed to depict the moment Dr. Manhattan got atomized in an experiment, after which he reassembled his atoms and gained godlike powers. It's a pretty unusual subject for a heroclix figure, but I guess it was included in their Watchmen releases because it's an iconic moment in the original comics.)

I'm pretty sure there just isn't much of a market, they don't really have much place in a war game, unless it'ssome sort of theme scenarioinvolving a seige or something.

I primarily collect sci-fi miniatures, Dawnbringer, so I wasn't aware of these civilian options for fantasy. It's still interesting to me that fleeing civilians seem not to be a thing, regardless of genre. It's not hard to imagine scenarios where protecting them / guiding them to safety could be primary or secondary mission objectives, or where their presence as an unpredictable A.I. faction could complicate things. There are plenty of minor civilian characters who desperately navigate battlefields in 40K fiction, after all.

I'm not arguing that terrified civvies should be present in every battle, or even in most battles. But they're not even present as an occasional element.

Mostly they appeal to me as dioramic hints at a larger, more complex universe than the immediate Us / Them conflict of the battlefield. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11658835.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11658835.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

Yes, that's right. They were sculpted for Gangs of Rome, but Wargames Atlantic could not sell them separately until the Gangs of Rome kickstarter was fulfilled. It's similar to how WGA sculpted the WWII German sentries and British WWII SAS & Commandos for the 02 Hundred Hours Starter and expansion boxes, and now sell said figures separately.

We've also had Rob Macfarlane go back to the drawing board for The Damned vehicle. This is what he's been pulling together:The basic footprint of the vehicle matches closely to a Games Workshop Warhammer 40,000 Chimera to give you an idea of the size. Let us know in the poll how you like this and of course feel free to leave comments below.

Rob showed these as silhouettes because he didn't want to distract with an unfinished look as the detail and gribbles haven't been added yet but the basic vehicle is roughed out and he has a basic plan for breaking out the parts on the frames.

Once we have a sense of what you think of this we will be able to give a better answer to the ship date. 11 sets all at once is a massive undertaking (we don't know if anyone has ever done this many hard plastic sets in one release?) and we're trying to "eat the elephant" one bite at a time while making sure each and every Damned set is fabulous. Sorry it's taking longer than we estimated! We're focused on getting through the rest of the to do list as quickly as possible.

Happy Wargaming!

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/TPz_Fuchs

It's kinda difficult to judge just with the silhouette but there is something a bit off, particularly with the two open-top versions as Kurhanik said - either adjusting the wheel position or going for 8 wheels (more like a BTR?) might help.

Edit: just reflecting on it and thinking about the Stalwart vs Fuchs, if it's supposed to be chimera sized I think it probably just needs bigger wheels mounted slightly differently. Currently it probably is closer to the Stalwart but I think it would work better if the wheel layout was more like the Fuchs.

This got us thinking...let's make TWO plastic sets!

So here's the plan. We'll take the doggos, the unarmored bodies, the unarmored arms, and open-faced helms and create a true Conquistador Cavalry set. BUT...we will take the armored bodies, armored arms, full helmets, and the armored horse parts to create more traditional European cavalry of the period.

We'll give pre-production order folks the option for which they'd like to receive and produce both sets at once.

Stay tuned as we move toward layouts!

For me, this is a result of Werewolf the Apocalypse. Which was my first and favorite gaming experience with were-wolves. In that the werewolves are depicted as the 9' tall killing machines and though I dont think there is anything official in the books, the internet has it at a 50% size increase when in Crinos form.

Same; I have a 25mm scale 1990's Ral Partha werewolf from the official licensed line and she towers over many GW miniatures. At the time, she was twice as a tall as a regular human mini from that range.



Then Dog Soldiers and Confrontation Wolfen entered the zeitgeist. So people expect gigantic werewolves now, I guess?

Both of these kits are also in danger of being underwhelming in the amount of options, each only gets half a sprue so you're gonna get a box of 6 or 8 copies of one half sized sprue, that's not great in this day and age.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11671580.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11671580.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024 http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11671602.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11671602.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

Thanks for that comparison shot. Very useful information. You're correct that Tehnolog is the company for the guy at the far right.

I think that the Confrontation size is kind of my ideal. I've got a unit of 6 of the pre-painted ones that I slightly touched up the paint on, dipped and put on 40mm squares. They've been great fillers for several fantasy armies over the years and my only regret is that I had 12 and sold 6 of them.

That said, for a smaller skirmish game, I can see the value of something in between 28mm and 40mm.

Google says "In Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition, the average gnoll is between 7'0" and 7'6" (2.1–2.3 m) tall." "In Pathfinder 2e, gnolls are typically between 6 and 7 feet tall, but women are usually a head taller than men and are also stronger."

I think you're right about Gnolls. I can accept them being man height, but ideally they're at least somewhat taller. In my head they're just one of many 6-8 foot monsters that an adventuring warband might encounter. Gnolls, Orcs, Small Ogres, werewolves, etc, etc....

Great score with the pre-paints! I got a few from the MM sale but should have bought a few more. What are the Female Confrontation prepaints?

As it happens I was just rebase/repainting one of those starter set hills/altar pieces this weekend along with some other pieces.

Thanks for that. Not as bad as it could be, but as it's shown with a historical, it's going to seem even smaller than pictured placed next to their fantasy and sci Fi figures.

Machine gun looks pretty goofy. Ammunition feed and ejection port on the same side is a bit weird. No sights. Barrels seem to be half-rotated if the chamber is at the top; I don't think gatling-gun barrels tend to stop in that position, but I'm far from an expert.

Vehicle looks interesting! I can see a lot of potential with the open and closed version.
Maybe some smart combination with the artillery or heavy weapon pieces allows some cool customization and kitbashes?

I will need to look at my pledge and how to fit the vehicle, maybe I have to up it again.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11677462.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11677462.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024
Well here's a few pictures and updates for you all!
Just under a year has passed since the end of the live campaign. I know this because Facebook tells me every day! With that milestone I am pleased to say that every single set is in production in one form or other.

Let me get right to the production update.

Heavy Weapons/Weapons Teams have had a slight change overall. In order to fit all of the weapon option onto the frame we have had to split the crew out onto a separate crew only frame. Essentially that means we get more weapon options overall without having to make any cuts. We are also planning to use the same crew frame for the Artillery pieces meaning we will have more space available on that frame for all the parts we want to include there.

That means the Artillery have moved up the production schedule and will be tooled at the same time as the Heavy Weapons.

Female Infantry are in file prep and will also be in tooling shortly. Brutes are headed to file prep.

Now, let's take a look at some of the new box art we've received from Mark Stacey. Here you have it! The .........................! Okay, we've decided as it's a new vehicle we need a new name. Let us know your suggestions in the comments below. We will pick our favourites and run a poll next week to choose the name.

I will endeavour to get you more shots of the vehicle. In the meantime below you can see a number of the parts as they are being cut up and prepared for layout and tooling. And with that, every single set is now ready for production or finished or at some stage to completion!

Thank you again for all your support and feedback throughout this campaign. We love hearing from you and really appreciate your engagement in what has been our biggest undertaking to date!

Best wishes and happy weekend to you all,
Charlie

Then I realized it fits well with Archon's Wolverine as the Leman Russ at home. The aesthetics seem to shift in the same direction from GW's. So that means we can accomplish a visually coherent force with not-GW MBTs and APCs. And that's worth a lot.

while i know that part of it is the need for players to know what the weapon is, but i suspect you could cut back the length of those barrels by a good 70% and have the barrel shroud directly against the casemate mount and people would still recognize them, while looking a lot better.


after all you don't need a very long barrel for a flamethrower, as the Sherman Crocodile and Churchill Crocodile show. and most of the pumping mechanism is going to be inside the hull.





a stub barrel would look a lot better than the long one currently on it.

So it's whatever Warlord is doing? Smaller?


Warlord is doing several different sizes within their Epic ranges apparently. The ACW figures were 13.5mm from foot to eye. The Pike and Shot guys come in around 14.5mm foot to eye by my calipers. I haven't seen any of the Waterloo ones in person and the Punic wars aren't out to the public yet. I don't know if the ACW were considered too small (like their Imperial Romans) and they had to adjust the scale up a bit. Or if they just pick slightly different but close sizes for each range for some reason.

But to answer your question - no we're not doing anything in any of those sizes (which are basically 15mm kinda sorta and I want nothing to do with that!).

We'll have a lot to say on the subject within the next week!

Kinda like 20mm between 15 and 28, though I appreciate if you're a grognard who started out in 20mm (1/72) it might still have a place! :p
10mm Wargaming scale (base to eye) is roughly 1/144 which is a common model scale and therefore adds a wider range of terrain and models (same as 1/72) and for most 10mm is the sweetspot between size and detail for human sized models for mass battle were 20mm still makes a good skirmish game size]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11678733.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11678733.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

OK, I'll bite, what does that mean?
For example, if the miniature at 1" equals six feet in height, 1" horizontally is also six feet.

Never cared for 10s in anything but sci-fi and that's mostly just for the cheap N-scale terrain and 1/144 gundam accessories, I still prefer 15mm for historicals, fantasy and sci-fi. Sad to see the scale denigrated so.

They look very nice for 10s, but there is ZERO chance of me ever doing japanese in anything other than 28, and we already have Warlord and Fireforged for that.

But they do look nice.

For me personally the most off putting thing is yet another scale to get terrain for. That said, after how underwhelming Warlords "epic" ACW range was, if WGA did a plastic CW range of models as nice as these samurai look I might well be tempted even in 10mm (us gamers can be a mercurial lot after all)...

I mean, end of the day, ANY scale requires new terrain if you're fussed about it, but naturalistic terrain works for most things, and you can pack in a lot more 6mm or 10mm terrain for your currency unit, especially with how easily accessible 3D printed stuff is now.

The one thing about sub-15s though is how the base widths interact with various games.I know some do individual infantry at 10mm, but these look like strips, so for some that could be the bigger hurdle.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11678871.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11678871.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024 http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11678872.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11678872.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

Those models looks ace, and the choice of variable model strips (and some individual ones) is excellent for preventing repetition; so many ways to arrange those. There was a time I individually based all my 10mm, but have come around to multibasing now so these are preferred.

Unfortunately have no real desire for Ashigaru/Samurai, though maybe that will happen if I get back into Age of Empires III or Shogun 2:Total War one day (never really gave the latter a good shot, and then Warhammer Total War came out...). Would love to see European armies from the same period in plastic; Italian Wars and all that. Colourful troops and formations which will look great in 10mm too. Have a bunch of Pendraken which I love, but oh my, cast metal pikes in 10mm are often a bit of a pain. Too thin and bendy, but too much work to replace with something. Plastic would be heavenly. (And honestly, is there anything that looks better at a small scale than a pike formation?) That they would also work as Warmaster/Minihammer Dogs of War is an added advantage. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11678896.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11678896.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

Not to mention, any sensible spy or assassin will disguise themselves to blend in, not stand out. Thus the cinematic black clad ninja is exactly that, cinematic. As is Naruto in his bright orange jumpsuit.

A popular story, but one without basis in historical record. The gesture is never described to have been made around this time as far as I'm aware, and the French would cut of 3, not 2, fingers (if not killing the captured peasants outright), making this legendary origin unlikely.


Anyway, great looking minis. The rabble are equally suitable as angry peasants, poorly equipped troops, or bandits, and the medium infantry complements the range with all the equipment not found elsewhere - polearms, falchions, lighter armour and less knightly headgear. Good stuff, glad to finally have an alternative to the Fireforge ones (whose outsized weapons and occasionally unnatural poses don't fit well with most other historical minis). Given the era and similarity in gear, they'd also go well with e.g. the WA Halflings I reckon, if you want a Bree-type setting where some Big Folk join forces with Halflings!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11680184.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11680184.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024 http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11680288.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11680288.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024 manga-ka of the manga The Dragon, the Hero, and the Courier, a slice of life fantasy manga about a courier/mail carrier.

It would be great if some of the more outlandish helmet designs could be sculpted, if not for the Baron's War, at least for WGA Digital so we could have more variety. {Also, some helmets are pre-12/13th C, and some others after that period.}

Not based on what I've seen / heard about the Barons War range. They aren't made to be GW compatible.

I think it's maybe a combination of the angle of the shot and the way the horses head is turned.

Regarding the size of the Victrix stuff, that comparison image was actually posted by me. I have the WA Foot Knights and also have a sprue of the new Victrix Mounted Knights. I find the Victrix miniatures I have are maybe a mm or two taller than the WA Knights. The big difference is the proportions, the Victrix stuff is much chunkier. The helmets especially seem much bigger on the Victrix Knights. Head connections are also different on some of the Victrix figures.

Personally, I really like both sets but I'll likely use them for different projects rather than mixing them.

I don't think so, from the text in the newsletter there was space on the tool so they used the bases to fill it, so i don't anticipate they'll be part of the sprue sent out to backers, it sound like they'll either be clipped off in the factory or when the tool is used they'll close part of it off so they either make damned or the bases

First up, the Vox Populi Conquistador Cavalry and the second Cavalry set we added - the Renaissance Heavy Cavalry!

There were so many parts for this set we decided to divide it up into two unique sets. Both sets will be built on our existing Medium Horses and both sets will share a frame x 4 each of WAARN003/6x. This frame has all the heads, shields, and saddles for the two sets along with the doggos! And as we mentioned you'll get 4 in each box so that's a lot of doggos! Both cavalry sets will feature 12 horses and riders (although you'll actually get 16 riders in the heavy cavalry set)

For the Conquistadors we have less heavily armored troops. The final parts are being added to this. They share a mold with our new dual-use 25mm x 50mm pill bases which will be sold separately!

And here are the armored guys:

Both cavalry sets will feature 12 horses and riders (although you'll actually get 16 riders in the heavy cavalry set)


The unarmored guys are on a half sprue. Wonder how that is gonna compare the sets between each other.

But for fictional settings ... c'mon, let us have the kitbash opportunities. Heck, there was a short fantasy series that I liked as a boy whose Conan the Barbarian clone protagonist dual wielded a broadsword and throwing axe instead of the typical sword and dagger of history.

It does indeed look like a wheel. Given there's wheel divots on almost all those bases, it might be for something where big spoked wheels are common and the extra one on the sprue is for base decoration. Something with cannons, perhaps? I'm thinking Napoleonics or ACW.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11685507.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11685507.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

Firstly please let me apologise for the delay in getting this update out. As ever we have been incredibly busy at Wargames Atlantic.

Following the poll for the new vehicle name I can confirm the final results as per the image below;

The name for The Damned vehicle will be The Mauler! As you will have seen from the article image we also have some awesome artwork from Mark Stacey depicting The Mauler in action!

Here's a few more renders of The Mauler that sculptor Rob sent over to me.

Finally I know a fair few of you have asked to see some of the infantry and command models assembled so I took some time out to build a handful of each to show you what they look like.


Brute Commander and Female Commander from The Damned Command frame.




Two infantrymen with special weapons from The Damned Infantry frame.

I'll do my best to get a few more together for you. We should also have a load more layouts ready to show you by the end of the month.

Once each of the layouts have been shown I will put out an update confirming the closing date of the pledge manager. In this update I will also confirm which frames will be available as part of the "free frame" selections as well as provide a full gallery of every single The Damned product so that you can make an educated final decision on products as for your pledge.

We're in the final stretch now. It won't be long before we begin final production runs. Once the pledge manager closes we can then begin planning each of your deliveries!

Best wishes to you all,

Charlie

No bases in the Kickstarter unless you ordered the two options that were in there. We'll add bases to boxes once we have rules of our own.

As for fitting in a standard box - why? They 50mm bases are on the equivalent of a 1/2 and the crew go in boxes with full frames already.

Introducing The Last War

Our next game-in-a-box is at the printers and it's time to introduce you to The Last War!

"The Great War, World War, War to End all Wars, the only true name it has is the Last War, for now remains not enough people to fight another.

The War ended not with a bang but a cough and splutter. The disease that took hold spread far and wide. Few survived the fever and filth. With so few humans left those that dwelled in the night took up the arms of man to fight over what was left. Those scattered beings hunt the trenches of the last war for scraps, salvage and weapons."

The Last War is a game by Will Rahman-Daultrey the creator of the popular Forbidden Psalm game system. As we did with the Quar we will be bringing you a game that includes a full rulebook, tokens, dice, and plastic goodness!

Along with lots of frames of World War One models we're including this special conversion frame that features trench maggots, ROUS's, and lots of conversion bits with tentacles, heads, and brutal trench warfare arms to customize your models.



The tooling is finished as are the boxes and the tokens, dice, and rule book are being printed now so we are not too far off from having this fun game in your hands. Stay tuned for more info!

And we are hard at work on the next six games too! (Yes that's not a typo!)


No word on exact box contents. I'd hope for one of each WGA WW1 sprues (German, French, British, Russian) and 2+ upgrade sprues.

the game needs 5 troops for the player team..

the WGA german, french, and russian sprues each have 6 figures, so those would work ok. the British sprue is only 4 guys though, which could be an issue. (though it does have tons of customization). the french one has an options half-sprue with more stuff for their side.

if they want simplicity they could go with two sprues each of german and russian. if they want iconic match ups, they could do two sprues of french and two of germans, with at least one of the french options sprue. or they could do two sprues of germans and 3 of british.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11689662.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11689662.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

If you get the Heavy Cavalry box it has armored torsos... 16 to a box vs the 12 gambeson torsos to a box in the Conquistador box.

I preordered 2 boxes... Hopefully I can get 1 of each with that... and then a horse sprue purchase from @McDougals means 28 horseman.

both sets will be built on top of our Medium Horses frame. You will receive four of these in each box (don't use the saddle blankets though!)


We also have a shared frame that gives you the saddles (that are designed to fit on the horses bare backs) along with all the heads, shields, scabbarded swords, and the doggos! You'll also get four of these in each set. Yes, that's a LOT of doggos!


And now is where the sets differ. First we have WAARN003 Conquistador Cavalry. These are soldiers in lighter armor with a mix of sword and lance (and you can build all models with all of either). You will get four of these frames in the box

OR

And then finally we have the main frame for WAARN006 Renaissance Heavy Cavalry. This is a full frame that includes horse armor, both matchlock and wheelock pistols (even a left handed one), and enough swords and lances to outfit everyone. There are also holstered pistols and enough weapons to outfit every figure in the set with one type. You'll notice there are four bodies on this frame. We gave you an extra one to create a slightly more "fancy" ruffle collared type if you so wish. This is a 12-figure set but adding in some of our Medium Horses will get you 16!


....so the best choice looks to be a box of each, and an extra horse frame]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11694636.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11694636.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024 http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11694637.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11694637.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024 IT

With 2 heavy cavalry boxes I will have 24 cavalry guys and 8 extra rider bodies... so with 2 horse sprues it would make 32 cav... though the extra 8 would not have the saddles the others have (since you only get 12 to a box) and they wont have armor or armored heads since you only get 12 of each of those to a box as well.

Ruffle neck body will probably make a good champion base. I wonder how much the dog/saddle sprue will be as individual sprues... As I will probably want some more of the new heads. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11694646.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11694646.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024 http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11694650.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11694650.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024 http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11694695.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11694695.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

Hello, president of Green Ronin here. We are doing both crew minis and spaceships with Wargames Atlantic for our crowdfunding campaign that launches in a week. If you are not an RPG player and just want the mins, there will be pledge levels for that.

Get Ready for The Expanse Roleplaying Game: Transport Union Edition
by Green Ronin Publishing
You and 3,563 people are making it happen!
A New Era Begins with The Expanse TTRPG: Transport Union Edition!

Get an Exclusive Dice Set
Sign up to be notified when the campaign launches. Launch day backers will get a free set of Protogen Dice, and first crack at any limited reward tiers.

Delve into the Universe of The Expanse Novels by James S.A. Corey.
Create your own characters and live your own stories with The Expanse Roleplaying Game. From the streets of Earth and the valleys of Mars to the stations of the Belt and the systems beyond the Ring, the universe is yours to explore.

The Transport Union Era is Perfect for Roleplaying
This updated core rulebook is set between the events of Book 6 (Babylon’s Ashes) and Book 7 (Persepolis Rising). This is a fantastic time to set an RPG campaign because there’s untold history and a lot of unexplored territory. The thirty years between novels gives Player Characters room to shine and write their own chapters in the history of The Expanse.

100% Compatible with all previously released material for The Expanse RPG
The Transport Union Edition expands the background and rules but the core game of the original 2019 edition remains the same. Previous supplements like Ships of the Expanse, Beyond the Ring, and the Sol System remain great and useful resources. The Expanse RPG virtual tabletop is also being enhanced as part of the Transport Union Edition with full compendium support coming to Roll20, along with official support coming to Foundry, allowing you to play the game online with your friends wherever they are.

Three New Supplements to Choose From
Daemon’s Gambit is a new adventure series set in the Transport Union Era. Free Navy Conflict presents this apocalyptic era for play and includes an adventure series. Crew Companion is the first player-focused book for The Expanse RPG, and it includes loads of new options for your PCs.

Dice and Minis and More—Oh My!
We are going all out with this campaign. You can expect new dice sets and, for the first time, official Expanse miniatures for characters and spaceships. Plus, some fun surprises!

Exclusive Dice Set!

I'm ambivlalent about the price, but as someone who enjoyed the show quite a bit, I would certainly be willing to pay a premium for miniatures of this specific IP.

Consider that it's still considerably less than the cost of almost any other IP-connected minis and you're getting multipart hard plastic rather than the usual monopose boardgame-plastic figs. I'm not totally convinced yet, but I'm willing to be if the sprues look good.[u]

The spaceships are intriguing also. 30 ships for $40 bucks is a pretty darn good deal, especially if there's some customization possible. I'm not even into spaceship gaming, but having a bunch of Expanse ships on my shelf sounds like fun. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11697064.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11697064.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024
With the figures I don't really know how much of a premium I'd pay specifically for The Expanse. I read and loved the novels and haven't seen the show, so my headcanon visuals of things may or may not match the minis. But given it mostly follows civilians and other irregularly equipped people, I don't expect it to be too heavy-handed with the IP in terms of miniatures design. I don't think they're so much more pricey that I won't go for them at retail, and I'm very keen on seeing more about them.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11697075.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11697075.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024 http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11697166.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11697166.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024 http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11697263.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11697263.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

No idea how well the game will play, but it's an interesting concept. No hard details other than it's a semi-coop warband game where each player plays a guard captain and 5 guards and you are competing against each other to go around town and solve crimes, help NPC citizens and apprehend NPC criminals. I was not particularly impressed when I played the 1st ed Test of Honour, but 0200 Hours is pretty fantastic. Even if the game is awful, those figures look great

You probably haven't been paying attention to his development of the rules over the last couple years. Remember that Graham is a consummate perfectionist and that the foundation of this game is built from the same concepts as the 02 Hundred Hours one.

Like we did with 02 Hundred Hours we've made plastic sets for the game but these will also be part of our Classic Fantasy range. The City Folk set will be pretty amazing for populating your D&D towns and for kitbashing. The guard will make good adventurers, mercenaries, etc.

I admit so far I've not seen anything tangible enough to be classed as something more than a marketing pitch, until the new WIP posted an hour ago.

Thing is, overall there was no "City watch" in reality, there were citizens who brought their own armament and, depending on century of course, they were equipped with what they could afford. Plate was cheaper than mail usually, both affordable for an average citizen if he saved for about a year. Or inherited them from their fathers.
The "City watch" is something made up in fantasy universes where you have modern times polices projected into the past. Totally fine if you do a fantasy setting, but putting them in plate armour wouldn't be the fantastical part about them . ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11699017.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11699017.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

That makes a lot of sense. The city watch, in my opinion, would probably be akin to militia duty for citizens and I wouldn't expect them to be so heavily armed indeed. It's the same reason why you don't see the police patrolling in full military kit. It's heavy and unpleasant. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11699043.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11699043.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

Plate is pretty much the lightest form of armour. The stronger your materials, the less mass you need to be effective. Cloth and leather armour was astonishingly heavyweight stuff; twenty layers or more of dense fabric, often covered with leather, and treated with wax and oils. Nothing like LARP 'quilted' (two layers with some wadding between them) and leather armour.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11699142.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11699142.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

You've noticed the Grand Battle Scale (10mm) Orcs we're working on and probably heard whispers of the Dwarves too! Well, we're here to tell you these are just the first sets leading up to the release of a Grand MASS Battle Scale game: Classic Fantasy Battles!

We've been hard at work behind the scenes to prepare the way for this massive release. Over the course of the next year we'll be previewing (and releasing!) new hard plastic factions for the game along with deep dives into the core rules, scenarios, army lists, and more!

The first step though is to get at least 10 factions into hard plastic so that you have plenty of time to build your armies!

If anyone from WGA is reading this thread, a small request: if you're doing modern / near future looking robots like this quad-legged 'dog' in plastic, can you try and fit some small flying drones onto the sprue? There's a surprising dearth of suitable models on the market, given how much hype military drones are getting at the moment.

Having recently assembled some of the MEdge ones, I disagree on them being good models. The legged chassis isn't too bad, but the rotor / control surfaces for the flying ones are a nightmare to fit exactly right, and the guns are extremely fiddly too. They seem perversely resistant to the idea of just putting nice thick slots and tabs where the parts fit together (far from the only manufacturer with this flaw; plenty of GW models over the years have been similarly awkward).

EDIT: I'm also not too fond of them aesthetically. They seem too small for proper combat aircraft, but too big to be a recon unit, and they are a bit more 'sci-fi' and less 'realistic' than I like.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11701067.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11701067.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

It doesn't say anything about "total model size" – it says "approximately 10mm high" because, er, they're 10mm models, at least as close in size and scale to Wargames Atlantic as any other range described as 10mm.

Sure, there’s some variation within the Warmaster range – just as there is within and between pretty much any range of miniatures, but it’s a 10mm range; that’s the appropriate label and people are just pointing out that 10mm Warmaster models based on 40mm x 20mm bases has been popular with people in the past, and might be a good fit for other 10mm ranges, like Wargames Atlantic’s.

Those are significantly smaller than death fields and most '28mm' fantasy ranges, aren't they? Including WGA's classic fantasy skeletons, I believe.

Generic robed humanoids would be good, but I'm concerned that they would reproduce the 'flaws' of Frostgrave cultists: being too damn short and having puddle bases. If it was me designing them, I think I would try to make them compatible with Guards of Traitor's Toll miniatures. There seems to be some potential for horror-themed expansions for that game.

Of course, the very idea that they are releasing robed vampire-like miniatures in plastic is pretty wild speculation from vague hints. It could well be a digital product, or some new use for their werewolves, an entirely different horror monster, or something like a range of 'horror investigators' in Victorian or 1920s style.

My original estimates for the Damned based on previous releases from Wargames Atlantic was some time in early 2025 for the gamefound delivery and something like mid 2025 for the retail release, not really sure why they decided to say May 2024 was their estimate and then just keep delaying things as the kits obviously take time to finalize.

This hard plastic box set includes enough parts to build 12 heavily armed Valkir Heavy Troopers with options to build the legs in multiple ways by adding or removing the hanging cloth tabards, pouches, side tassets, and other accessories. Three helmet types are included: the trooper, commander, and the more heavily armored Sturmhelm. Weapon options are many and include: heavy assault rifles, heavy anti-materiel rifles, grenade launcher, flame thrower, pistol, and power sword.

Update #64
10/25/2024 10:19 AM
We're so close! I can taste it.
Update #64
We're very nearly at the end of this journey.
Good day all! I hope this update finds you all well.

As mentioned in the title above, we are very close to having everything tooled and in a place to begin production runs. I have some assembled models as well as a layout to show you.

Below is the final layout of the female infantry.

And, I've managed to get some test shots to show you some of the assembled miniatures. Check out the below!

We also need to say a big thank you to the ever vigilant and supportive Farglator for catching a mistake on the Artillery sprue. The connector on the two damaged gun shields is missing. This has gone back to tooling and will be fixed within the next couple of weeks.

Finally, I am hoping to have the last two infantry layouts in the next couple of weeks now. That's the Beastmen and the Hounds and Handlers. As soon as I have those I will do a big update showing every sprue layout and what's included in each set (number of each sprue). I will then give the date that the pledge manager will close.

Once the pledge manager has been closed, we will be able to plan and begin production and fulfilment. I will put together an update detailing that plan for you as soon as it is ready (I estimate a week from closing the pledge manager).

Thank you again for being awesome and for supporting us in this project!

I hope you all have a fantastic weekend.

Best wishes

Charlie

Horus Heresy marines are $60 for 20, or about $3 each..but once you add in the special weapons options that the Valkyr come with, the 30K marines just about double in price, if not triple, depending on how you break the costs down from needing multiple upgrade sets. so there it will depend on what you intend to use the valkyr to portray.

and the 40K primaris marines are running $62.50 for 10 dudes, and they don't come with all the options the valkyr do either. (nor do they have upgrade sets)

they're closer to the First Born tactical squad box.. but there you are paying $60 for 10 ($6 each) guys, so it's still more expensive. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11705081.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11705081.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

BRAINS!

This may be the most versatile box of Zombies ever made! Rob has designed the bodies in nondescript rags so that they could represent nearly any type of clothing. And then we've added a stunning number of head types so that these can be used to represent zombie versions of any of the following:

Ancient Rome
Dark Ages
Viking/Norman Period
Renaissance
18th Century and Pirates
Napoleonic French and British
Cowboys
WW1 and WW2 British, Germans, and French
Modern Heads - Police, Fire, Construction, Civilians
And of course enough "regular" zombie heads for all
There will be extra arms that can be used with other historical bodies to zombify them too!
One caution - we have not taken this to layout yet. We believe we'll be able to get everything on the frame but there may have to be a cut or two. We'll let everyone know as the set progresses through file prep, layout, and tooling!

Models require assembly and painting. Bases are not included.

I do like the idea of the set, which is to say, one single set of zombies that could potentially be used in multiple games and periods. I agree that I think it would be better to drop some of the specific head types to 3 or 4 each in favor of including more variety. However the final layout goes, this also seems like fertile ground for some add-on sets in their STL store.

There will be extra arms that can be used with other historical bodies to zombify them too!
One caution - we have not taken this to layout yet. We believe we'll be able to get everything on the frame but there may have to be a cut or two. We'll let everyone know as the set progresses through file prep, layout, and tooling!

Models require assembly and painting. Bases are not included.


This is an extremely good idea.

personally i feel they went overboard with the heads. that they could cut the number of each back to at most 3 per hat/helmet type (though leave the full 6 bare heads), and you'd be able to fit another 2 bodies+arms. and that mixing the helmeted and bare heads would still allow you to customize your horde to whatever era you want.

For example Mantic's zombies for Firefight/Warpath have a particular theme of military, scientists and something in between and although that set is far from perfect it works as intended in the particular set.

With this set we are led to believe all clothes become equally ragged regardless of time period, but the helmets and hats manage to stay on in a way that is easily recognizable?

I think WGA wants to do it all at once and that hurts the end result of many of their products. Many of the follow up sets are held up for a while now in the queue (like command and HWT for many death fields factions), the damned seems to be fighting in the queue for attention versus the sets for other companies and the overall planning/scheduling is still far from working as intended (deadlines keep being announced with extremely optimistic time frames).

Truly not a fan of the puddle bases, however, that just fething sucks. Really kills the set for me, It's so much work to remove them from an entire unit of models.

As someone who has built hundreds of models from WGA and spent the extra heads from the kits, quantity is not exactly quality or variety.
Some kits are better than others in this regard, but if you spend the almost 200 heads of a grognard box or the over 100 heads of a WW1 Germans box you will see what I mean in terms of variety. Lots of WGA kits have what is essentially the same sculpt with slightly different expressions or mustaches (or just the exact same sculpt over and over for gasmasks) and while that doesn't look bad on the tabletop, especially from the distance, I have started to find it quite boring while building/painting them (there is a limit to what different hair colours and a few variations can do to add variety while painting, especially when some sculpts have no hair/facial hair).]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11708978.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11708978.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024 http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11709181.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11709181.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

This HIGHLY useful box set features parts to build up to 30 levy with a wide variety of weapons including spear, bow, club, sling, ax, sword, and a variety of farm implements as a last resort. A variety of heads allow for even more customization and parts can be combined with the other sets in the range.

Two unique full frames make up the set - click the box above to see them in high res. Whether you are building out a retinue for Barons' War or sending your fantasy villagers after a pack of ravenous werewolves, this box has you covered!

TO ARMS!
The peasant levy could make up a bulk of an army during this time period but were rarely the decisive element in a battle. They were raised in one of three ways, as members of a lord's household, as mercenaries, or levied from a town or the countryside. Many of the men were armed, had some training, and came from the upper peasantry, the tenant farmers who would have at one time had prior experience of a battle.

This is the second in a new range - The Age of Chivalry - that will soon include Sergeants, Levy, and cavalry sets to go with the existing Foot Knights.

Models require assembly and painting. Bases are not included. Not for Children. Contents may vary from photos.

I don't have a dog in this fight, but in my experience pledging on other monty haul style minis kickstarters, I think you have two forces that both make people more dissatisfied as time goes on:

1) no matter what the company does, the actual product is unlikely to be exactly as cool as what every backer imagined, and rarely does every single feature promised get included.
2) People lose interest as whatever reason they had for the product dries up, or they have moved on to a new shiny toy, etc.

I'm not saying that people don't have legitimate complaints at times with kickstarters, but I do think that a lot of it is people just not wanting the product as much anymore and that showing up in complaints about the process. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11709816.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11709816.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

Manufacturing and Shipping Update!
Update #65
Plus a little something to show off.
Well, as they say, better late than never! Apologies for the delay. I have been waiting on images to share with you.

As we get closer to completion I wanted to put together an updated and more accurate production schedule along with a shipping window that we are confident of being able to achieve.

As mentioned in previous updates we underestimated the time it would take to complete this project. We wanted to be sure to have you, the community involved in the manufacturing process and give you the opportunity to influence each of the sets as they moved through production. That was a commitment we did not want to fall short of and I am pleased to say I don't believe we have.

Of course, it is difficult to please everybody and at times we have had to make tough decisions. Even after manufacturing more than 60 plastic frames over the last five years you never really know what's going to work on a layout until the plastic flow engineer yells at you! However, I am very pleased with the outcome and I truly believe we are going to deliver a fantastic product!

Before I get into the production dates let me show you the latest frame layout.

Now let's get to what is coming next and when. The following sets are currently in tooling. For those of you that have missed this in previous updates, that mean the mold is being cut from steel as we speak and is the final part of the manufacturing process.

Tooling:
WAADF022 Damned Females - done! (images inbound any day!)
WAADF022 Damned Heavy Infantry - November 16
WAADF016 Damned Brutes - November 22
WAADF017 Damned Outriders - December 4

I'll be showing off the initial frames for each of those as they come through over the next couple of weeks.

The following sets are in final file prep and being made ready for tooling. All of which should be finished any day now and will then receive a tooling completion date. The good news there is that pretty much all of these should be finished on or before the end of the year.

File Fixes/Layouts Coming
WAADF018 Damned Hounds
WAADF021 Beastmen
WAADF023 Damned Mauler

What comes after that is the final production runs of the frames. This won't take too long at all as we have been stock piling frames of the already completed sets over the last few months.

Once that is all complete we can then begin shipping out your pledges. In the interest of setting an achievable date for this it is our aim to have the project fulfilled by the end of March.

I will continue to keep you updated will all new information and images as it becomes available. We really are on to the final stages now. This has been a mammoth undertaking for us here at Wargames Atlantic and we are really looking forward to you receiving your pledges.

As soon as I have the final layouts I will be posting an update showing every layout, confirming the number of sprues in each set and the final list of free sprues available to choose from.

Thank you again for sticking with us and supporting this campaign, you're all Damned wonderful!

Best wishes,

Charlie

I am still trying to understand how they keep making up deadlines they can't fulfil, especially when they are producing more and more sets for other companies and obviously occupying the parts of the queue which seem to be the bottleneck (layouts and tooling seem to be their major bottleneck for the moment).

Before I get to the juicy stuff I wanted to confirm that we will be adding one free Crew sprue with every free sprue selection of the Artillery sprue and Weapons Team sprue. So that means if you select an Artillery sprue as one of your free sprues you will receive one Artillery sprue and one Crew sprue. The same goes for the Outriders where you will receive a sprue of horses for each Outrider sprue you select

Next up will be the Brutes followed by the Beasts & Handlers then the Beastmen. Finally we will hit the Mauler which is likely to be a minimum of two frames. Possibly even three!

I will soon have a schedule of release for The Damned in retail stores post the fulfilment of the Gamefound. We were hoping to drop all of them at once but that is looking very unlikely at this stage. We are looking at a monthly release of one or two Damned sets at a time. I think that makes you Damned backers a very lucky lot!

it's a Quar tank. i put a picture of the resin kit earlier, it's pretty obvious it's the same vehicle.

that said, you could probably use it as a Damned AFV. just swap the Quar tank commander out for a kitbashed Damned one.

personally i think the Quar tanks are a good choice for an early effort at a vehicle kit. like the Damned's truck, they're fairly simple shapes, so easier to cut into parts and fit on a minimum of sprues. the Ailthean is also a good choice since it's tread design seems to be reused on several other Quar tanks, so if they design the sprue layouts right and put the motive system half onto its own sprue, they could easily do kits for other Quar tanks by swapping out new turret sprues.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11712405.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11712405.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

given the Quar tank is clearly mounting a fairly low-velocity gun (which matches the setting's fluff for the vehicle), the distance of travel is probably workable. it just wouldn't leave much room for upgrades to a better gun later. but since in the setting this is a 'light' tank used to support infantry assaults, not fight other tanks or attack heavy fortifications, a low velocity gun firing explosive shells is probably ideal.

indeed, the fluff for it says it's a 78mm, so the "gun" is probably only that smaller barrel at the front, and the larger bit behind it is probably just an armored housing holding the breech.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11712572.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11712572.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024 love this kit...

But I digress in discussing sub-par tooling


So this sort of stuff is what Mantic used to post a lot of and that totally worked out for them, and never back fired...

Where is the tooling done? You mention Altera Industrial but they seem difficult to find online, and you mention everything but tooling as specifically being done in the states.

I had a much longer response typed out, comparing old kits and new kits - Dreamforge in particular, but Dakka logged me out so I'll boil all of it down.

- For a few quid more, I can buy a GW kit. I know its going be fun, consistently sculpted, and come with enough options when relevant (less options when I need to build more of the thing).

- Buying from GW means I can buy multiple other kits that will be compatable, where as WA seems to suffer from Warlord Games' 'Ooo, actually, we're doing this now' approach which as a customer, is just disengaging.

- This sort of comparison really needs to be a show, not tell. Wargames Factorys Leviathans, and the truck thing, were awesome pieces of kit - its not suprising GW outsourced all their terrain to them. WA haven't really produced anything like that. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11715125.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11715125.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

We need to make a few adjustments on the tool, but these are almost ready to go. Each frame includes 6 infantry and a squad tractor which is a full squad of these guys. Like the other Infantry sets you'll get two full squads in the box!

Umm ... considerably less enthused now. Let's see how they tool the civilians. If I choose to buy this game, I've plenty of minis other than civilians that I can use, and I like the looks of the WGA Foot Sergeants better any way.

Speaking of questionable tooling decisions, I bought Fantasy Warriors by Grenadier Miniatures back in 1990. This was their attempt to compete with WHFB, which failed. The dwarves and orcs included have the ingate on the small of the back instead of the base. So you had to glue the included shield over the ingate instead of placing it on the left arm where the user could benefit.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11716522.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11716522.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024 http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11716529.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11716529.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024 http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11716541.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11716541.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

Oh, sure, if the model is good enough I'm willing to put in a lot of work. The alien warriors from AGDitC have their feet sculpted as part of their bases, but I wanted them on some other bases to fit with some existing models. So I spent hours filing the damn things paper thin so they would just fit on top of the other bases.
If these were the only way to get models I really wanted, I'd put up with the effort of trimming them, as I have with other ones. But if there are several ways to get a certain style of model and one of them is heroic scale and has no puddle bases, that's the one I will go for. So their design decisions pushed the kit from the one I would absolutely use as soon as I wanted generic fantasy humans, to one choice among several.
I just find it really weird that nobody seems to like puddle bases (I've literally never seen a single person saying they prefer them) but multiple manufacturers insist on doing them. They even waste (a miniscule amount) of space and plastic, so they are paying extra to (as far as I can tell) make their product less appealing.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11716829.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11716829.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024 http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11716831.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11716831.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024 http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11716849.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11716849.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

No, bases are not a relevant determinant in any of those categories, and that guidance was withdrawn over a year ago. Manufacturers, like Wargames Atlantic, who produce miniatures both with puddle-style bases and models intended to be glued onto bases by the feet will be importing and exporting both of those types under the same codes, in the same shipments.

Am I alone in still wanting to see slotta tabs or foot pegs on plastic figures?

For Slotta basses:

-Slotta basses are still widely available and any company can buy them in bulk cheaply if they wish to sell with their minis.

-Slotta tabs are easy to cut into pegs if you wish to firmly anchor the minis, especially useful for fancy scenic bases that aren't made of plastic.

-Slotta tabs have a straight side that makes them usually quite easy to trim off if you wish to glue them down flat-footed.

Foot pegs are similarly useful except for the use of slotta bases. You can quickly cut a matching peg hole in a plastic base with a craft knife, and they'd be even easier than slotta tabs to remove when gluing to a plastic base.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11717118.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11717118.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

Taking a quick look at The Damned Outrider sprue as it comes off the press.
Good day you lovely Damned backers!

Today it's the turn of The Damned Outrider sprue to be shown. I'm really looking forward to see what people do with these guys. My favourite parts have got to be the horse heads! And the fact that there will be plain horse heads on the horse frame that need to find a home, I can envisage a lot of gruesome trophies doing the rounds!

And the reverse!

I have an email prepared for the EU backers with regards to the tax and additional reward. That will be sent out as soon as I have all of your emails grouped together.

It is unlikely that I will have another update for you before Christmas. So to all of you that celebrate I wish you a happy one!

Lot's to look forward to in the New Year!

Best wishes

Charlie

They actually sell 2 separate just horses boxes now. "Horses" and "Light Horses". The chariots come with the ones from "Horses". So if you get a box of horses they are the same ones in the chariots box.

But the issue is more with the Yoke/ horse connector part to the chariot. Though as said above it shouldn't be that hard to convert.

Here are both horse sprues... Horses on left, and light horses on right

Last chance for updates and late pledges as the pledge manager closes at the end of 31st December.
That's just about all folks!

Once the pledge manager has closed we will begin compiling your orders and running the final injection runs of each of the infantry frames. The Mauler is currently in layout following file fixes. It will then move to tooling and injection in time for fulfilment.

We are still aiming to begin fulfilment in March. The general retail release of The Damned will follow the final fulfilment of the campaign. It is our intention to release each of The Damned sets at a rate of one to two sets per month.

I'd like to say a big thank you to you all for your support and engagement over the course of this campaign. It has been a blast so far! Let's keep it up for the final few months. And beyond!

Best wishes to all of you for the New Year! I'll see you in an update on the other side!

It depends on what flavor of Chaos you're after. It's not super Grimdark, but with the majority of heads they're pretty evil looking. Enough to push it away from feudal guard.

They are generic enough though that a head swap can push them back into Imperial suitability.

I'll build my Ogryn and Beastmen straight from the kits. The Rough Riders and Stormtroopers will have new heads (probably Pig Iron Kolony Militia to match my current army) and most of their armor repaired.

I am very happy with my Ancient Chariots of the two-horse variety and even bought and built a set all ready! I even bought a box of your Persians for the crew.



I am curious if there is any chance of a 4-horse chariot? Such things were common in the Chariot Age, and were used by Hittites, Assyrians, Babylonians, Persians, Chinese, Carthaginians, the Roman games, and more! A generic set like this one would be amazing!

A sprue for Scything would be great too!

It's finally time to show you the City Folk plastic sprue that goes alongside the City Guards I showed off earlier.
There are 6 bodies - 3 male and 3 female, covering the wealthy, average and poor, and a number of 'dress-up' items like capes, satchels, scarves and aprons that change the look significantly, plus of course loads of different heads.
There is a large variety of open hands in different poses, designed to fit all the many, many small items on the sprue - a teapot, bunch of flowers, fish, cleaver, scroll, book, snake, bucket, smoking pipe, owl and lots more. It's going to be an incredibly useful kit!
The sprue has been made by Wargames Atlantic, sculpted by Rob Macfarlane - so it will mix perfectly with things like the new Peasant Levy set.
NB the pirate-looking chap in the pics uses parts from the Guards sprue.

Are they lipped with a recess in the center?
25mm squares are common and I've got plenty. What I want is 25mmx25x3mm recessed in the middle like these:

And they have a webpage, but not much info on it: https://www.bloodonthesands.com/

Blood on the Sands is a historically inspired skirmish game that immerses players in thrilling one-on-one gladiatorial combats. Players build and manage a stable of gladiators at their school, or ludus, battling for survival in the provincial arenas of ancient Rome. Blood on the Sands recreates the dynamic, back-and-forth 'dance' of the gladiatorial duel, reflecting the balanced intricacies that the Romans infused into their deadly bloodsport. The mechanics produce thrilling, narrative combats that move across the arena, demanding tactics, skill, and a degree of luck from the players. Between games, players manage their stable across the course of a campaign. Each gladiator strives to be crowned Champion and lead their ludus to victory—but most will fall, forgotten, like Blood on the Sands!

I don't really need more Gladiators, but I always WANT more gladiators.

The rules themselves are a bit too focused on one-on-one duels for me, and ignores all the other ways Gladiators fought in the Arena. However, the core system is pretty solid and popular with the historical wargaming set.

The final sprue, or should I say sprues for the Damned Mauler are off to tooling!
This one has me excited! Yes, probably more than all of the others. Not just because it is awesome but because this represents the end of the design process and the final piece of the puzzle.

I like these more and more with every reveal. So glad I swapped these into my pledge.

Does seem like a slight oversight to not make it possible for all the miniatures to have a gas mask. I could be missing something, but it looks like only 5 of 6 can be masked.

To my chagrin, at this point it seems like a theme that every WGA kit will have one or two commonly-used options for a given miniature set that are impossible to apply across the entire kit. In addition to Gas-Masked heads it to be the same for double-handed CCWs. At least we have enough to give single-handed CCWs and/or pistols to each figure. My question would be whether we needed 9 single handed CCW's but only 3 double-handed CCW's.

Fantasy is definitely where most of mine will probably end up. I think these will fill a nice niche in the market for both fantasy and Sci-Fi beastmen.

Looks like it has Uzi-style sights (sight guards, anyway), a boxy rear reminiscent of the MAC-10 (or -11), and a magazine and grip somewhat similar to the Jatimatic, or maybe a TEC-9 with a shortened magazine well. So a blend of the 'greatest hits' of 1980s SMG design, which is absolutely perfect for these guys.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11727511.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11727511.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

"OTHER" PRODUCTS

Besides hard plastic sets and games we have a bunch of products in the "Other" category coming out this year. We've developed some interesting hobby tools specifically for hard plastic that we think will make your lives easier. We also have some amazing waterslide transfers in the works with original designs by the very talented Steve Beckett. And there are going to be a few other surprises coming in the "Other" category as well starting in March!


More than anything, 2024 was the year of the Quar! We partnered with Joshua Qualtieri of ZombieSmith (and Strange Plastic) to take his lovable and iconic Quar to hard plastic. Starting with the This Quar’s War: Clash of Rhyfles game we have followed up with three hard plastic sets and at writing have seven more in progress with even more to come after those! 2025 will see all these sets and more as the world of the Quar expands across dozens of hard plastic sets and more games.

We have also secured our first license for a popular television series that is fertile ground for a wargame. Contracts are signed and plans are made and work is starting. But that’s something for another day!


And 2025 will see the launch of models in a completely new scale from us. We're not talking about the 1/1200 Expanse ships (see below) and we're definitely not talking about "those nasty little 15s" or even the ridiculous 13.5mm figures! So stay tuned!



Combining two of 2025’s focuses (foci?) is the range and game for 10mm Classic Fantasy Battles! Our first set, Orc Infantry, is done tooling and the box is getting ready. Dwarven Infantry, Skeletons, and Elves will follow along soon with many other sets this year culminating in the launch of a massively small new game. You’ll be hearing a lot about that in the lead up to the release as Andy discusses gameplay, army building, and more.

OTHER GRAND BATTLE SCALE GAMES

We have three other games in the works for the Grand Battle Scale ranges. One is in partnership with the fine folks at Helion and we’ll be announcing that in the near future. Another is the brainchild of Battlegames founder Henry Hyde. And the third one is well into play testing in the wilds of Cornwall!

from the looks of things the beastmen arms will be pretty similar to the arms on the sprues for the various human troops, so you ought to be able to make SMG+CCW human infantry by mixing sprues, as well as give the beastmen those AK style rifles.


That's a very good point. Folks who have bought into the crowdfunding will probably have enough options to convert these in a number of ways.

Pretty sure they made all the new plastics for DFC, and probably some for DZC. They’re also making plastics for a few other games that don’t show up under Wargames Atlantic. That’s a solid foundation to build on and even take some risks.

Two "New" Hard Plastic Sets! (Let Us Explain...)
Today we're excited to announce two "new" hard plastic sets. We say "new" because they are both new versions of previous releases that we think you'll really like! Let's dig in!

First up we have our first Army Box: Skeleton Army! We've taken the frames from WAACF001 Skeleton Warriors and WAACF007 Skeleton Cavalry and Chariots and absolutely filled up a giant box with them to give you a grand total of: 18 Horses, 4 Chariots, and 85 Skeletons! A whopping 23 frames of plastic!

We also have a new Les Grognards box! When we designed the original Grognards we made the 1/2 frame of 3 infantry bodies you know and love and a 1/8 frame of extra heads. We then made another 1/2 frame just of heads and we've mixed these two head frames in the boxes ever since depending on which ones were being produced (depending on the other set that was on the other side of the mold). Well, as the Grognards continue to be super popular the head frame situation got out of hand. And the set on the other side of the 1/2 frame of 3 bodies was getting TOO much production.

To make things easier on us, and to give you something extra for the Grognards, we've retooled the original frames onto one full frame. BUT we've also added a completely new body pose along with a new set of rifle arms. So most of it will be the familiar set you've known but you get a new pose. Each of the new boxes will have 6 of these full frames giving you 24 figures with ALL those head options (with and without gasmasks!)


Both of these sets will go on pre-order next Friday January 31, 2025!

February 10, 2025 Wargames Atlantic
Vox Populi Redux!
Welcome Citizen! Here at Wargames Atlantic we believe in the power of democracy!

From our earliest beginnings, we have polled wargamers to find out what we should make for you. The Famous Friday Poll on Facebook has questions for you every week. And a number of our sets have become a reality through various polling and contests including, but not limited to: Aztecs, Conquistadors, Grognard Cavalry, Skeleton Cavalry, WW1 Russians, Conquistador Cavalry, Renaissance Heavy Cavalry, Afghan Cavalry, and the BEF.

We launched our Vox Populi program in January of 2023, revised it later that year, and have been seeing how things go ever since. The idea was a multi-step process of voting through immediately redeemable gift voucher purchases, then having the top set in the voting go to a second round of pre-production orders, and once the $6000 target was hit we'd make it. Pre-production backers got a nice discount and a chance to have something they really wanted made in hard plastic.

We fear it was too complicated and in today's world of constant attention-demanding "stuff" you had to be too into it to understand how it all worked. So today we're re-launching the Vox Populi idea in a new, simpler format:

First, we wanted to make sure that we recognized what had come in V1 of the program. In looking at the most recent voting, we realized the Top 4 had 60% of the total votes for the 12 in the list.

So we've taken those top 4 and moved them directly into production to join the Dark Ages Army Builder and the Warring States sets that are already in process!

Now, going forward we've dramatically simplified the process. It's one vote for all the sets that are on the list and we'll just take the leaders and move them to production as we go. As sets come off the list we'll add new ones on based on your #voxatlantic hashtag suggestions and additional polling.

No multi-step process, just pure vote totals. All these sets will be made eventually, but this will ensure that the ones you REALLY want get made first.

We've also added a section at the bottom of the new Vox Populi page that shows the current status of the sets that have moved to production. You'll be able to follow along as they flow through the various steps to become hard plastic.

Thanks for all who have participated so far and we welcome everyone to get their votes in! Also visit the forums to discuss the various sets and add your ideas and wishes to the list.

Thanks again and Happy Wargaming! Vote here!

It's been a hectic month at Wargames Atlantic but good news on the Damned!
Good day to you all!

Apologies for the lack of updates recently. It has been a hectic time the last month and I've been up to my eyeballs in all sorts! The good news is, regardless of how busy I am, the production of the Damned has not stopped! In fact, every mold is complete apart from the Mauler.

The first of the Mauler molds are due to be complete any day with the others to follow imminently. As soon as I have photo's of the sprues I will post them in an update.

The Mauler is going to hold us back a little. However, in an effort to keep things moving, as soon as the production runs start on the Mauler sprues we will start shipping pledges out

I will begin updating all of the address changes this week so if you have an address update and you haven't already let us know then please send it through.

Not long now folks!

Best wishes,

Charlie

In general the process goes: Sculpting, Sculpture Review (and any revisions), File Prep, Layout, Tooling, T1 (first test shot), Box Design, Box Printing, Release.


I am interested in the Genoese crossbowmen. I wonder if these are 28mm, or grand scale. And wonder what can be built with the sprue. If they are being released on April 18th, I would expect a preview... so the date may well be the "we will get started on these" date. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11736586.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11736586.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

I would assume that if it doesn't have a stage listed, it's the rough date they're hoping to start prep work.

The Orc horde is the first release for the new 10mm game. Looks good. Not sure about only 2 cavalry models per base but I guess that all depends on how you want to base them.

Never understood why it takes them so many tries to get their frames right. Most of our frames are final on T1 (i.e. the first test shot). Sometimes they go back for a gate adjustment or additional ejection pin added to facilitate fill/operation so that would be T2. I think of the 90+ frames we've done we've had to go beyond T2 maybe 4 times? It could be down to the fact that they insist on using those half-hexagon runners which aren't great for plastic flow - round cylinders are always much better. I think the new IG frame has 9-10 of those little dots!?

The reason for that is it combines several unique things on one frame: 1. organic shapes, 2. small detail parts, 3. mixed sized parts, and 4. a LOT of parts.

Most tooling is focused on multiples of the same part on one mold that allows for more consistent fill, atmosphere in the mold, etc.

So the great irony is that our little plastic toys are some of the hardest and most expensive plastic molds to engineer. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11741369.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11741369.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

Never understood why it takes them so many tries to get their frames right. Most of our frames are final on T1 (i.e. the first test shot). Sometimes they go back for a gate adjustment or additional ejection pin added to facilitate fill/operation so that would be T2. I think of the 90+ frames we've done we've had to go beyond T2 maybe 4 times? It could be down to the fact that they insist on using those half-hexagon runners which aren't great for plastic flow - round cylinders are always much better. I think the new IG frame has 9-10 of those little dots!?

Greetings Wargames Atlantic,

We are so excited for the release of Classic Fantasy Battles! can you give us some indication, however, of what variety of troops, warmachines, creatures, heros, monsters, etc. will be manufactured and present in the game? My friends and I are hesitant to purchase these new armies until we know that the game will have enough official Wargames Atlantic models for us to enjoy a truly epic scale, varied experience. Can you comment on this at all this early?

I am fine keeping it at infantry in the first wave of boxes, but separate releases with additional varied units is necessary if the game is to compete with the other rivals on the market. I'm sure they have big plans, the response seems very positive.

Response to Shattered Union is remarkable. The game will have units of 4-12 miniatures with 6-10 units per side. Unique factions - what are called "Murders" in the game will be many and diverse. Some Core sets (Civilians/Survivors, Operators, Agents, Police) will be available to any player to add to or customize their Murder. Andy Hobday is playtesting the rules now. No dates for release yet although the generic sets will be out as part of our Pulp Adventure range over the next few months.

Classic Fantasy Battles is also moving along at a rapid pace in preparation for the launch of the two player game later this year.

This is incredibly good news (within our niche hobby). When WA had initially said you were bringing production into the US I had thought it was a net benefit but that changed (purely from an ordering for non-yanks perspective, leaving aside anything else) recently. If UK production is going to be set up as well, that'd be great news for those of us in Canada. I don't know if you'd be able to say now whether the plan is to produce EVERYTHING in two places - I would imagine that would get expensive on your business end re: molds quickly.

We are in the process of finding a partner to handle injection in the UK and the first mold bases are being built now for that purpose. Early days, but I suspect later this year you will see boxes in the UK, Canada, Australia, and the EU that say MADE IN THE UK on the bottoms.

Re: Shattered Union. Not everyone's cup of tea but we believe we have a formula for making a very fun, inclusive game that will allow players to be as "real" or as tongue-in-cheek as they would like!

Absolutely, it's a great generic kit to have. When the zombies/aliens/whatever attack it'll be the cops who respond.

Alternately they can be evil oppressors running for the heroes.

Very useful and no one makes them in plastic.

This is a very good thing for players of zombie and post-apoc gaming. There used to be a number of affordable sets like this available from Wargames Factory, but when Warlord Games acquired the molds, the price went up 3-4 hundred percent on a per-figures basis.

I realize that some folks might find that the theme hits a bit too close to home given current events (and I completely respect this), but remember that post-nuclear-apocalypse fiction, games and miniatures were coming out during the last decade of the cold war also....

Personally, I keep my apocalypse gaming firmly rooted in zanyness, Mad-Max and zombie movies -and I've got a ton of applicable minis- but I still might find a use for some of these.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11744061.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11744061.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024 imo. Just to clarify then, you're doing the existing heavy weapons in plastic as expected and his comments were specifically about designing any new / further options for the foreseeable future?

Shattered Union is an, um, interesting choice. Not sure the concept would personally appeal into todays climate, but the range of kits that are coming will definitely have a lot of other uses which will be handy. I'd be curious to see whether it's something that ends up doing better in the US or in UK/Europe...!

Your kits have one piece bodies as do Northstar, which are the kits I've been buying for the last few years. Now I could see that adding more separate elements complicates sprue layout and flow. For instance, a basic The Broken infantry squad of six comes on four sprues, though one is the weapon sprue and has no body parts. That would be just two sprues for your original Grognards kit, or 1 and a half for your later kits like the Raumjager or Bulldogs. So it's an added expense for Maelstrom's Edge.

This is not a complaint, but just curiosity.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11744449.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11744449.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024 UK-based civil war in the UK just before WWII.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11744472.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11744472.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

The ones I have are the old Human Mercenaries from Mordheim and the Maelstrom's Edge figures, namely The Broken and the Epirian Corporation.

Your kits have one piece bodies as do Northstar, which are the kits I've been buying for the last few years. Now I could see that adding more separate elements complicates sprue layout and flow. For instance, a basic The Broken infantry squad of six comes on four sprues, though one is the weapon sprue and has no body parts. That would be just two sprues for your original Grognards kit, or 1 and a half for your later kits like the Raumjager or Bulldogs. So it's an added expense for Maelstrom's Edge.

This is not a complaint, but just curiosity.


It depends on the set - for example the upcoming Expanse Crew set has split toros/legs.

But in general it comes down to a few considerations. These are the reasons I generally don't have split ones:

1. It doesn't add anything - for example if it's a WW2 soldier in a uniform probably not as they all dress the same and mixing and matching does nothing for variety.
2. It lets people make stupid poses that are too twisted from one side or the other and ultimately the figure looks bad
3. Most "normal" movement poses can be achieved in a few one piece bodies (see #2)
4. It more than doubles the parts on the frame and in plastic tooling you need at least 5mm around each part and then xmm between parts - so you're just eating up frame space that could be used for other parts
5. It complicates assembly - yes, sounds dumb but there are many people who don't like the assembly part of making plastic figures so they complain if there are more parts

Anyway, there are probably things I'm forgetting but those are the ones that come to mind .

While I'm here - BW2 on sale tomorrow! Quar Command boxes on sale tomorrow! More on Classic Fantasy Battles next week! Maybe some sneak peeks of more Shattered Union soon. And we're working on some VSF! Also a ton of other stuff. Like usual.

I'd say this is applicable to hobbyists of all varieties, not just those who hate assembly. I love the building and kitbashing part of miniatures the most but there are so many old plastic kits where in order to facilitate ball joints or domed torso connection they had to split a body into front torso - back torso - legs.

That's 2-3x the sprue gates you need to clean and a much higher chance that over time the mold will wear away causing mold slips and gaps in the finished assembly. It honestly just becomes a hassle past the first few figures.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11744615.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11744615.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024 http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11744632.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11744632.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024
Are either of the two original expansion periods (Viking et al and Outremer) covered in the new rule book, please?

no, they are not. The second edition is a second edition of the original rulebook. We will be issuing a free bridging PDF so you can use the current supplements until they are replaced.

A 500 point starter force would average around 25 models and the standard table size is 4' x 3' but you can scale that up if you have more miniatures.

If you look for 7th Son on Youtube he has recently done an unboxing of the new 2nd Edition box and includes a quick look at the Getting Stared guide which features two starter lists for the figures in the box.

The pintle mount may need tweeking too (but it could just be the photo or build not showing the pivot which i'd have at the bottom of the arm)

I wonder if the brackets are there to add structural support for gluing ? If not easy enough to leave off

As to the cab sticking out i'd say it's to provided the driver somewhere to sit with the engine being behind him based on the exhausts and vents in the roof, plenty of real world APCs & Tanks had and have terrible direct vision, easy enough for the driver to have vision screens

Edit: [personal head canon, it was a civilian truck designed to have a single driver on the left, but the damned needed to add a second seat for a gunner and third seat for the commander and plenty of ammo storage, hence the driver was moved to an added on armoured box on the engine side]

The British Alvis Stalwart army truck this is heavily inspired by didn't have any steps or even a side door (you scrambled up via the wheels then in via the top hatch) but as you say it might be good to add some, or perhaps cut the guard away under the door implying a ladder unfolds from the door when it opens]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11746128.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11746128.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

Are there going to be multiple gun options for the APC? Sorry if it was discussed earlier and I missed it.

The sprues can be seen at: https://gamefound.com/en/projects/mwg--wargames-atlantic/the-damned/updates/74

In short, there are weapon options, but not a huge number of them. Multi-barrel flamethrower (i.e. a heavy flamer) or howitzer / grenade launcher / heavy bolter in the front hull. Machine gun / heavy stubber or minigun / rotary cannon / Gatling gun (presumably meant to serve as a multi-laser stand-in) on the pintle mount.

However, I believe that the plan (at least at one stage, see update 53) was for the option to mount heavy weapons teams and/or artillery weapons on the truck bed of the open version. That opens up the possibility of fielding it as a mortar-carrier (i.e. Gryphon or Wyvern substitute) or gun-truck (which might work for a GSC Goliath truck or Chimera with autocannon or heavy bolter in the 'turret').]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11746626.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11746626.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024 https://gamefound.com/en/projects/mwg--wargames-atlantic/the-damned/updates/80

Different Traveller setting I'm afraid ^^.

Mongoose picked up ownership of Twilight: 2000 as the same time as they picked up 2300AD and are allowing them to continue publishing it for the period of the licence they had. Whether the licence FL has excludes Mongoose from publishing miniatures or hex & counter wargames, we will wait and see I guess.

Back in the day, we used 1/72 scale figures and vehicles. You'd pick up a load of each for a song and a dance from the local model store.

Grenadier miniatures picked up the line for an HO scale range, however, at the time is was short lived, based on the timing. thier figures ... had a lot to be desired.

https://www.miniatures-workshop.com/lostminiswiki/index.php?title=Twilight_-_2000#Twilight_-_2000

At the time, the 25mm figures were the wild west, so there was a great bunch from the assorted mom and pop companies, and the ranges were as varied as the scale.

3 games of T:2000 I played, one the characters were 1/35 scale model figures , a second we used the 1/72 scale figures, which ended up taking and being the group favorite, and we ended up using for ongoing, and a third game was just to use some modern 1/32 scale plastic army men, just for firefights.

These days, with a 3d printer, and the different companies, you have to pay attention to use 80's centric figures, such as those from Flames of War, Team Yankee, or using the 3d printed Soviets, Europeans, and troops from the various countries.

For the game itself- Free League is one of the best companies that I've seen to take up the flag. Mongoose- not so much. Free League's game system is streamlined and is very tight. I've played Walking Derad, and Alien a couple of times.

Yeah, then your options are limited. I can think of a few good options for camels, but they're all metal.

I gravitate toward whatever's cheaper but many cases I'd actually prefer metal mounts.

Ironic isn't it?

And to be honest we should have made this move a long time ago and saved on US to UK freight. We're estimating we'll save about $500K next year on freight alone even with the added expense of moving molds back and forth. The challenge now will be to make good projections so that when the mold is on one side or the other we run enough production to cover a good chunk of time. That said it's only about $500 to send one one way so it's not going to break the bank. It just adds a little bit of complexity to the production schedule - which we'll address by extending the time between mold completion and pre-order to a month or two.

This move though will give us the flexibility to be nimble in the face of ongoing geopolitics and US domestic politics. Hoping for the best, but always prepared!

It probably won't be that noticeable to the outside world but we've slowed our roll the last few weeks as we've made this move - production is running now in the UK so we'll soon be pumping out a lot of products again on the regular.

I would think this is probably true. A heavy weapons kit could even include a couple command-bits and suddenly you've got the basics covered.

You can build armies as good or evil with multiple races / factions. It will be commonly done, so I think Wargames Atlantic are giving us a nice sample of each planned in the first 10 factions.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11756658.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11756658.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2024

Preview in the Friday e-mail says it is a plastic kit, and clearly (rather battered) robot legs. Presumably for Death Fields. I'm fairly excited about them.

EDIT: I note that both sets of legs have identical damage. It seems unlikely that infantry-sized robots would have poseable legs, so this seems like lazy sculpting. Hopefully this is just for preview purposes and the final version will have each set individually detailed. Honestly though, I'm not sure why they are so beaten-up to begin with. Seems like nice clean robots which you can add damage to would be more popular than ones which come with a fixed set of scratches. Aesthetically they almost match the Damned, but it seems odd to be adding robots to them. I would have expected robots to be more like generic additions to any team.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11757883.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11757883.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025 http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11757884.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11757884.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025 http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11757888.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11757888.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025

"Robot" legs - robot singular. Multiple leg poses available for A robot. More to be revealed about that full set.

Signs - oh we have signs.

Arms - all the Pulp Adventure (and future Shattered Union) sets are compatible (male/male, female/female - no male/female arm/body pairings as it looks stupid) You have women (for now) bodies/arms/heads in Civilians/Survivors (2): Women and as part of the Agents set. The Operators set is only men although we won't rule out a future women Operators set or another mixed set.

I'd prefer to use box card for the signs so you can get the grungy fuzzy edges that IRL posterboards & thin plywood signs could get from carrying around and the occasional bonk to someone's head.

180 by my count. Does seem excessive. I would have been more than happy with a dozen heads per sprue (e.g. enough to do everyone either normal or masked up).
Another odd choice is the very large number of cricket bats. Baseball bats are at least somewhat common worldwide and actually function well as weapons. Even in the UK, you would expect to see one used in a street fight more often than a cricket bat. Given the massive possible range of improvised weapons, having multiples of the same seems like a poor choice. On the other hand, the only plastic range I'm aware of which did something similar (Project Z) was much worse, with most bodies having only one choice of melee weapon which was often a not-very-practical sporting item (cricket bat, golf club, and tennis racquet).]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11758006.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11758006.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025

I prefer having a lot of options for heads that I can use across all the kits.

And if I find I have too many, I’ll just skip some sprue frame bits, melt them into tentacles, and then glue the spare heads and arms all over them to make some kind of Thing or liquid alloy shapeshifter.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11758116.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11758116.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025 http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11758133.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11758133.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025

Not only did I have to teach about the Spaniards exploration and exploitation of the Americas, which was a perfect excuse to get students building Conquistadores and Aztecs and rolling dice for skirmish games, but now I have a perfect excuse to have them build Red Coats and Minutemen? What ever shall I do?

Going to need to look into some sort of grant process or money from the state to have them buy a bunch of models in bulk so we can have some proper war games.

Those are... not great? Half of them look like cutouts from entirely different places with different floor paneling, when ideally a set of bases should look like differently offset cutouts from the same location. And the other half aren't even cutouts, they are perfectly centred on some design that exactly fits on a base... are they teleport pads?

For the future, I suggest your workflow for designing a base set is sculpting a 5x5" or so area of a coherent floor, then making cutouts of that.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11759864.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11759864.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025 http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11759871.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11759871.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025

That was going to be my suggestion as well. Military technology really didn’t change very much between the revolutionary war, and the Napoleonic era that silver bayonet is set in. A few weapons/options are not quite seamless fits, but otherwise, the rules set should work with very little modification.

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.

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!

Not a dealbreaker for the kit, but they look like they'd need some carving work there on a few of them to fix them up a little, or just leaving those particular minis off.

Skeletons are perfect, however, I'm definitely getting those since I already have a 3d printed 10mm vampire counts army, but it mainly had zombies and ghouls rather than skellies, and the kit is nicely designed to be really easy to paint (white undercoat, pick out metals, brown wash, pick out wood in whatever colours you like and done).

55 heads for 6 bodies is such a good call, a headswap can completely change the style of the mini from gangster to protestor to office worker, it makes the kit really flexible on its own, and the cardboard cut out signs on the back of the box is genius, a lot of people are going to have fun with mini signmaking and it gives me a bit of nostalgia for the time when back banners were all DIY painted or printouts as an extra hobby step to personalize the minis.

In recent years Pulp has come to mean over the top action not to be taken seriously, I hear GW novels described as Pulp and I can't argue.

I agree I still think of Doc Savage and Indy Jones (from the 80s as it happens) when I hear Pulp but I think 'moderns' creates an expectation of realism and not say, zombies.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11773932.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11773932.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025
Perfect Organism wrote:'Pulp Adventure!' seems like an extremely weird brand for modern-day miniatures. The 'pulp' age is generally considered to be the 1920s to maybe 1940 or so, 1960s at most. Meanwhile, the miniatures look 1980s at the earliest.


Kid_Kyoto wrote:In recent years Pulp has come to mean over the top action not to be taken seriously, I hear GW novels described as Pulp and I can't argue.

I agree with both of these definitions, because one is referring to Pulp as a period, the other as a genre. I have seen both before, and I consider them equally valid, albeit confusing if you don't know which is being used. So, if you told me that ABC manufacturer was releasing a line of Pulp figures, I wouldn't really be certain what to expect without further context.

The problem is that there isn't a universally agreed name for this style of story/game. As Perfect Organism said, Pulp has ties to a specific period. Fantasy implies wizards and dragons, and Sci-Fi is in space. "Modern", at least among miniatures games, has a connotation of accuracy and realism. If I say "Fantasy Pirates", a lot of people are going to expect orcs and elves among the crew, so what do you call Pirates of the Caribbean? What about Scooby Doo or GI Joe? What about King Kong - does it matter if the big gorilla is in 1920 or 2020? These are all fantasical tales, but they aren't Fantasy as most people understand the term.

Perhaps a mix of demi-humans or even goblinoids? While I suspect it is a minority interest, I can't be the only gamer who'd like some non-human denizens in their fantasy townships.

For Guards of Traitor's Toll I purchased two non-human civilians: a female orc blacksmith, and a female Halfling baker. There's a female elf head in the Guards of Traitor's Toll starter (1 per civilian sprue for total of three), and I've a few spare elf heads from WHFB so there will be a few more elves and half-elves in my version of Traitor's Toll. The GoTT rulebook mentions some kind of aquatic humanoid species that resides near the city and who trade frequently, so that's another source of non-human civilians; I'll use the couple of Snakemen I bought from Northstar Ghost Archipelago metals. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11774613.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11774613.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025

Given that in most fantasy games "race" (species honestly would have been a better word probably, but it's now convention) is used to refer to human, elf, dwarf, orc, etc and this set is still in DESIGN; it could be that they're undecided on which race to pick or are even planning multiple sets.

This new set comes with ten brilliant Halfling Cavalry figures that you can customise in a variety of ways using the bits in the set. The miniatures, sculpted by Duong Thieu, have options for riding into battle with swords, lances, javelins and even jousting lances if you'd prefer to set them up for a tournament.

The set also comes with a number of different accessories and five types of heads (for eighty in total), which allow you to mix and match your Halfling Cavalry builds to make unique riders. This can also be combined with the Halfling Militia set (see below) to make mounted archers and much more.

When the High Queen calls, the fastest to heed that call are the many bands of cavalrymen spread throughout the halfling communities in the Mannish kingdoms. Typically organized by a local sheriff, ealdorman, or even a band of equal sors who pledge to fight together.

This hard plastic box set allows you to build up to 10 cavalry models equipped with sword, lance, javelin, and even jousting lances along with numerous accessories and five types of heads (80 in total!) This set is fully compatible with the previously released Halfling Militia set which will allow you to create mounted bowmen and more!

Models require assembly and painting. Bases are not included.

I think its the number of weapon / head options one each sprue eating up the space.

They aren't using Trench Crusade in any official capacity in their marketing though? There are no statements that it's an officially licensed TC product and it's not using any registered TC logos.

The only reference on the official sales page is "compatible with Trench Crusade", which is the same legally allowable statement that most 3rd part 40k compatible bits sellers use.

You're right that it's licensed, but not by Trench Crusade. It even shows on the image that it's an official partnered project with Dave from Miniwargamer.

TC can write whatever they want in their community licensing statement and it doesn't actually grant them any special authority, they would have to take WGA to court to try and assert either brand damage or unfair use.

Only 10 to a box? Interesting choice.


This is a very good set. 10 is less than the 12 of previous sets and the price does seem to have gone up, but it looks like WGA is answering the problem of previous sets which didn't allow for uniformly arming your units. Also, most games operate in units of 5 so it's not a bad thing I think.

Modiphius charges $55 for 10 plastic 32mm fallout minis with 2 being power armor and that includes the Bethesda tax and tarrifs so this kit is surprisingly expensive at $8 cheaper for slightly less stuff that's also less detailed (cheaper molds).

Not True.


What's not true? You sell wga for MSRP, so no discounts, so my statement that WGA stuff isn't discontinued much online seams to be accurate.

As for what I buy Modiphius plastic kits for it's very much true as I own most of the fallout line from them and I have bought plastic kits of theirs for between 40-60% off MSRP.

The Damned

Fulfillment is about to start up for the US while the last mold is en route to the UK and we're organizing the injection schedule over there. For those who missed out, once we get into fulfillment we'll have our first Damned products available for pre-order including a lovely little army box with a great mix of frames along with the Mauler! Damned backers should transition to following along at our Release Schedule page and here in our articles as we wrap up the project on Gamefound.


From the New and articles update titled "Grab bag of Updates"

From the same article.

A New-ish Way to Design Our Figures

When I first started Atlantic I used a variety of freelancers to sculpt our models (many of who became full time employees with us). As such we never really settled on a "house style". By this I mean a system whereby all the historical models were the same proportions and generally designed in a similar way. Working with Rob Macfarlane and Thieu Duong and the team over the last few weeks we've put in place the foundation of our house style going forward. We've just started the first plastic sets that will incorporate these elements and consistency and I'm looking forward to telling you more about it. I'll try to do so in the next few weeks once we have some good examples of the new figures and I can put together something a bit more visual. I think the kitbashers out there will especially like what we're up to!



New Sets in the Works

Lots of new ones in the works right now with additions being made to the Decline and Fall range, Blood Oaths, Renaissance, the World Ablaze WW2 range, Classic Fantasy, First Empires, Age of Reason, and more. Our goal in 2026 is to start significantly fleshing out the older ranges while we continue to support the Quar game, Barons' War, Classic Fantasy Battles, and Death Fields Arena. I'm hopeful that once these US Customs issues are behind us we'll be able to really ramp things up.

The US pledges have begun shipping.
I am delighted to let you know that we have begun shipping out all of the US pledges.

You should receive an email with tracking once your pledge has been packed and booked in with the shipping company.

We hope that you enjoy your models when they arrive and can’t wait to see customised and painted Damned models on your gaming tables!

Production has begun in the UK now and as soon as it is all complete I will be back with another update to confirm shipping for the rest of the World.

I mean I'm glad. I was one of the people calling out for Modiphius to use WGA last year because you have your act together and their Chinese partners really didn't (plus working with people that have production in the same country has to be all around easier).

But molds for them have been more expensive as the details they've been putting in their plastics (near resin levels) has caused them massive delays and reworks/iteration on the mold to get something that works and that adds up to be quite expensive in the long run. To that effect they're moving away from that level of detail so it doesn't take 2 year to get a single mold done.

And yet their still cheaper then this not trech crusade kit for what someone would be getting figure and options wise. I like your kits and will keep getting them but that doesn't mean an absurdly stupid price point compared to ... Yourself is something to not be commented on. Your LOL is kind of embarssing there and more or less a self own.

Is it? I always enjoy reading things like this. So many folks think they know how all this works but they really don't. Most of the companies not actually doing their own manufacturing don't know how most of it works to be fair and say some "interesting" things about tooling and production. And there are also a whole lot of companies that do know how it works and scatters a bunch of disinformation around.

I'm pretty sure the mounted ones are the same scale as the foot ones, as the product description states pieces from both sets can be kitbashed together. Eventually I'll buy some and confirm but I don't have any yet.

EDIT:
This hard plastic box set allows you to build up to 10 cavalry models equipped with sword, lance, javelin, and even jousting lances along with numerous accessories and five types of heads (80 in total!)

WGA has suggested that they're compatible with the haflings.
If you'd like to see them alongside other Halflings I did a review a while back.
https://www.chicagoskirmishwargames.com/blog/2022/09/cheap-sprue-review-wga-halfling-militia-and-a-classic-hobbits-roundup/
They're a good size, but they don't size up terribly well with any other lines. They're closest to LOTR, for which they would probably work in the same army if kept in their own units.

And yes, the Mantic ones are crazy big. Really silly that Mantic launched a whole line of Halflings and couldn't even get the size right. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11780396.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11780396.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025

The obvious MBT choice is the Archon Wolverine tho


Not a bad choice, but I've never been wild about the Wolverine. I think for Quar or for the Damned you want something a bit different., if you're leaning toward 40k aesthetics the longer body and more rounded track aesthetic could help set it apart from more contemporary designs. Dr Spork's 28/30mm renditions of classic Epic 40k tanks fit the bill a bit better I think. More Char, less, Leman.
https://cults3d.com/en/design-collections/Doctor-Spork/sci-fi-vehicles


Taking a different tack, for non-damned quar, the ultimate for quar might be the OOP Akuyaku 1 GO (Bad Guy #1) Kit.
https://www.hlj.com/1-72-scale-bad-guy-akuyaku-1-go-all-crew-set-w-20-pig-crew-figures-tactg-2
Technically it's 1/72, but it's more than large enough for 28mm, espeically with a couple hatch swaps.


Lastly, if you want to embrace the towered Quar architecture aesthetic, the Warmachine "Hammerfall Siege Crawler" is pretty cool.

Technically OOP, but not hard to find at reasonable prices.

I have both of the above kits, but they're not built as-yet. The Crawler was bought with Quar in mind, but I'm undecided whether the Akuyaku would be better for Quar or Squats.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11780729.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11780729.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025

Agreed. The Sorceror's Spoils box could be useful if one is just starting Frostgrave and have no wizard minis yet. You'd have a lot of kitbash material for minis and the terrain. The Dead Animal box I'd buy if I was kitbashing some kind of mutant or beastman army on a WHFB or Kings of War size, so 150-200 minis. Otherwise, my current needs are one Sorceror's Spoils sprue, and zero Dead Animal sprue. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11782422.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11782422.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025

I also realised that a large amount of bottles isn't just useful for traditional wizards and alchemists but also for hospitals and bars. Books are a normal record-keeping and information technology that's used in any number of situations. Parchment and candles are great for shrines as well as any number of 40K applications. Useful set for Necromunda.




So I think that while this appeals most immediately to the RPG crowd, you can easily make use of this for a lot of terrain-making in general.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11782444.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11782444.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025 Some news from us:

OK. That's interesting. A lot of stuff I never thought I'd hear about again.

My only comment would be congratulations to Wargames Atlantic, they really are making quality stuff and I wish them all the best.

Message below:

A Note from the Founder of Wargames Atlantic - Tony Reidy/Hudson Adams
I’m happy to announce that Wargames Atlantic will be refunding the backers of the Defiance Games Kickstarter from 2013. Details for backers are at the bottom of this note. You're probably asking why we are doing this:

There are very few people who know the real story behind Wargames Factory and Defiance Games and Tony Reidy. To understand what I’m doing I have to explain where I came from and what I lived through. The true story is a lot different from the stuff that gets thrown around in forums.



Wargames Factory

I started Wargames Factory back in 2007/8 after spending years researching the industry and trying to understand how to do hard plastic figures faster and cheaper as I thought taking what GW was doing for sci-fi and fantasy and doing it for historicals would be a great business model and no one was doing it at the time.

The idea was to use an all-digital process for tooling (what at the time I thought GW was doing - but realized later they hadn’t actually achieved that to the extent we thought). The reason to go the all digital route was that traditional 3-up tooling was slow and expensive (this is before the guys from Renedra were made redundant at GW and then launched their own operation - ironically Warlord, Perry, and I were all trying to do the same thing at the exact same time. I announced it earlier and Perry beat us to release and we tied Warlord).

As you probably remember the first Wargames Factory products were not as sharp as we would have wanted and I later found out we were being used as guinea pigs to perfect the all-digital process. We were also plagued with delays, bad shipments, mistakes (one time a whole mold of Celt parts was made backwards - i.e. all left handed weapons!) and the quality was improving but still not on par with what Renedra was achieving.

The mistakes and delays led to the business struggling and the Chinese factory owner proposed that he take an ownership investment in the company and help take it to the next level by doing the tooling at cost. He brought in two former toy industry executives to vette my business plan and tell him what we would need to make/do/etc. over the next twelve months to make it work. Like an idiot I agreed to a deal that gave him control of the company with the handshake wink-wink promise that controlling interest would revert to me as we hit certain milestones. I was young, anxious to build it, encouraged by the toy guys’ enthusiasm, and focused on the future and not protecting myself.

Anyway, we signed the deal and started executing on the plan. The quality levels really jumped - the Amazons, Greeks, etc were really crisp and where we wanted to be mostly. But the factory kept having production and shipping delays. The toy guys were all over him to catch up. I was completely frustrated. We had all this great product and it wasn’t leaving China. Things came to a head and after a heated phone call he basically fired me. (Later on he dumped the toy guys, never paid them, never paid anyone, and never distributed any profits to anyone with equity. He just stole it all and rebranded his own company in China as Wargames Factory to do outsource work for other companies - several of which he screwed over later as well. In some cases he caused people to go out of business or outright stole their molds or held molds hostage effectively cutting company’s off from being able to sell product.



Defiance Games

After firing me he had his minions start a bad mouthing campaign against me and the team leaving out all the details about the agreement and everything else. I was devastated and I also felt a huge responsibility to the guys who were working with me so we made a plan to launch Defiance Games as quickly as possible. Of course nothing ever worked.

We thought we had a US-based team to do tooling. Guys who had worked with Freeform and presented this whole plan to do tooling/injection for us at a discount so we could be a showcase of their work to get more customers. We went back and forth for months before they faded away. We eventually found people to cut the sci-fi Marine mold and although we were prepared for paying about 2x what we did in China, additional delays and flailing about led to the final pricing being over six times our old costs.

We tried everything. We moved to resin production. We set up a scratch-built heated machine to spin cast plastic (we had the equivalent of Siocast before Siocast!). But everything had taken too long, nothing was working, and it was just a nightmare. I had already lost a huge amount of money with WF and Defiance was just bleeding. It was a really bad time for me mentally and I almost didn’t make it through.



The Kickstarter

At the time there was a small team of people that had been brought in by a guy who had been a fan of WF and then supporter of Defiance. He along with a few other people tried to help me keep it going but as nothing worked I just lost hope that anything could work. Then they came to me with a plan - they had an investor who wanted to come in with them and take it over. They wanted to run it, they had a plan to do a Kickstarter with the hardsuit and other sets, and I agreed. I just wanted the pain and the stress to end and I’d go out and get a job and pay off my debts.

I signed over the bank accounts, all the websites, Facebook, passwords, etc. and ownership and said I just wanted to keep 10% and have some creative input. I figured that was it. I’d do everything I could to support them but I’d have no control and just walk away.

They got going and put the Kickstarter in place, did all the promotion, and ran it and did about $46K. In retrospect I think what happened was that they thought they were going to make a lot more than that and that would allow them to do everything they wanted to do. When that didn’t happen I got a message they wanted to meet up. At the meeting they told me they were out and weren’t going to go through with taking it all over and were giving me all the control back.

So there I was - debts everywhere, Kickstarter funded, and just me. I had to file for bankruptcy, the court determined which debts to pay off with what was left, and just shut everything down. Those years were the lowest point in my life. I hated everything, myself, hated anything wargaming related, and wanted nothing to do with any of it. I ended up losing hundreds of thousands of dollars. I always love reading how I “took the money and ran” - there was no money. The only guy who made any money from Wargames Factory and Defiance was the sculptor who got a regular paycheck all that time.

Wargames Atlantic

I got a job, paid down other debts, and tried to put it behind me. But through it all I kept up with one friend from Canada who’d been around wargaming for years. He had seen what had happened and had lived through it with me and eventually I kind of used him as a therapist going over what had happened, things I could have done differently, and all that. And in doing this I started thinking about how I could do it all better and really well and not get into any of the same situations - and the idea for Atlantic was born. Of course he thought I was insane.

I knew that I couldn’t do it as Tony Reidy - there was so much garbage out there and even if almost all of it was wrong - it’s impossible to convince anyone of the truth after the bs has become the talk track. So “Hudson Adams” was born to be the face of Wargames Atlantic.

But I wanted to redeem myself. I wanted to build something on my own the way I knew it should be done. I wanted someday - once the company was built up - to be able to release the Defiance stuff and make the Kickstarter whole.

And so I put together a plan, spent a lot of time figuring out how to do this better, and started. I had to hide who I was to do it, and I hated doing that and not being upfront with people, but it allowed me to show who I REALLY was through what I’ve built at Atlantic. Over the years I’ve confided in key people and partners who came to know the real me and not the Internet Boogeyman I was made out to be.

I’m sorry I misled you but the guy you’ve known at Wargames Atlantic - is me. This is the real me. I’m good to my team and contractors and business partners. I try to help smaller companies and boost the hobby as a whole. And I get to make fun products that people love. That’s all I ever wanted to do.

Now after six years we’ve reached a place where we can finally make good on the Defiance Games Kickstarter and refund those backers. Eventually, we’d like to put the original Defiance Games products into hard plastic and release them as they should have been done, but in the meantime we want to pay back all those who supported that Kickstarter in the first place.

After 12 years it’s unlikely that a lot of the card/account/contact details are the same on Kickstarter, so we are going to reach out to people a variety of ways to try to reach all the old backers. We will also be posting on the Kickstarter page once access is re-established. In the meantime, we have set up a new email address: kickstarter@wargamesatlantic.com that you can email with a screenshot of your pledge and current PayPal or bank details for a wire transfer. Alternatively, for those of you who prefer we’ll send you a voucher for our website worth 150% of the value of your pledge. So if your pledge was $65, you’ll receive a voucher for $97.50.

I hope this will go a little way in righting this old failure.

Yeah, can't say I'm really surprised. I know there were some denials from WGA staff back in the day, but can't be bothered to delve into those to find out if those were lies, or just carefully worded technically true statements. Either way, enough overlap between the companies to assume something was linked, though it was unclear what.

Without full knowledge on the Wargames Factory situation, I'll largely continue the same as I have before: will buy the occasional set when it looks good. WGA's offerings are better than WFactory's, but still hit and miss for me. Generally improving though, as they have been since before WGA was a thing I suppose.

As for Reidy, while WGA is obviously more competently run than WF seems to have been, the full statement does seem a bit heavy on the fingerpointing and somewhat lacking in self reflection in places. Will take a small serving of salt as a side dish.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11783022.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11783022.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025

That they orginally did casting in China was another.

It does seem they have learned a thing or two along the way amongst their failures and are now able to deliver products to customers. I've only got limited stuff from WGA, though have been considering more. This admission doesn't really change that too much for me. On the plus side they seem to be coming out and trying to make things right. On the other hand you have to realize they were lying to customers for years. And life isn't a Disney movie where redemption just happens at the end. I certainly wouldn't back any crowdfunding they did in the future, and I'm sure a few Damned backers might be reflecting how lucky they were they got their stuff.

Count me impressed.

I do think Tony's story is a little self-serving in the telling and the actual apology is minimal. However, WGA has a good track record of delivery, quality and customer service. If Tony comes through with refunds for backers and continues to do good work then I personally see no reason not to welcome him back into the good graces of the wargaming community.

What I really want to know is will we someday see the "Dreamforge" Leviethan models back in production and the not-MAK egg suits finally make it into production? I love my Leviathan and I really wanted those Egg suits, but saw what was coming well-enough to not back that failure.

I wonder also if Ken of Proxie Models will be made whole or if that was more the post-Tony Defiance's responsibility.

I’m glad to hear of the redemption arc, and I like to think I have moved past the initial feelings of bitterness and betrayal.

A business failing isn’t a moral failure, and I would extend Tony grace on certain things he did and ways he acted during that period. We are all human, and may not live up to our standards when the squeeze comes.

It takes a certain type of crazy to create something from nothing, and I respect anyone who can.

From my memory, the first big gaming Kickstarter to grab Dakka’s attention was Sedition Wars back in 2012. What a rollercoaster.


I recall watching that from afar.

Selfishly, it did work out well for me in that while I was not a supporter, I later picked up multiple copies of the game for $25 each and made myself a rather nice reinforced platoon that has seen alot of use in my "Mech Attack" convention games:

But... this is about to get pretty wild - from a quote by Wargames Factory, in 2011, post Tony's departure

WEB POSTINGS AND FORUM ALLEGATIONS
There is much misinformation as well as some serious allegations being circulated throughout cyberspace regarding the current state of affairs. As the new corporate manager of Wargames Factory, at the appropriate time, I will address all of the false and inaccurate statements and allegations that are being posted on the Wargames Factory website. There are more important and pressing operational matters to deal with right now without getting distracted or involved in a “mudslinging match” with previous management. Defamatory statements made about any individuals will be taken up with legal counsel and dealt with to the fullest extent allowed by law.


Now Wargames Factory didn't disappear. Far from it. They produce all of GWs terrain... and Tonys statement isn't exactly subtle with its accusations - far better then other statements hes done over the years, but... someone really should have been a critical friend on his comms.

Setting all that aside, people have short memories. Prodos are a great example of that, Red Box seems to be another - as long as people get there toys, no one seems to actually... mind? Like I do wonder what it would take for any one/company in the industry to tank themselves so hard, that if they just kept putting out product, it wouldn't just eventually work out.

Lastly, as someone who saw it all - the 500 hundred page thread on Frothers, the back and forth from Tony, spoke about it with Wai Kee at Salute, read all the Torn Armor debacle... I'm baffled why, on a random day in October, Tony suddenly decided to come clean. That to me, is the weirdest part of all this. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11783217.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11783217.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025

Except thats Tonys perspective.

At the time, Wai Kee put out his own statement. In a nutshell, the company had racked up significant debts to him, so in exchange for writing those off he would take a 51% stake in the company (including all the IP). In exchange, he would cover all the companies outstanding debts that were disclosed, and any that weren't would fall to Tony. Apparantly there were a lot more of these then had been admitted to, including one to an organisation called Triangle in Boston for around $5k. From what I can make out and remember from the time, they hired disabled employees to pack goods to develop employability skills.

So I think the question is - why would you sign over a controlling stake in your company in the vague notion you'd get it back - why would someone take on your debts, sort your business out, and then just... hand it back?

And thats without even touching any of the Defiance Games stuff because oh boy, is there layers to that onion. So many layers. I mean all the sign offs by the 'new team' were by Max so... is that Max McDougall? Because that'd be a great plot twist.



Setting all that aside - as I said, Wargames Factory haven't been idle. They entered into a partnership with Warlord to sell all the old kits, they produce Kingdom Death, Malifaux (although that may have changed), and all of GW's terrain. I think the accusations about quality being a manufacturing fault are laughable (especially given the quality of a lot of the home grown WGA kits isn't exactly top tier...). And if they do still hold all the IP, Defiance Games IP would have been lost similar to what happened with Secret Weapon... what and how is Tony planning to produce anything. And more importantly.. why bother? ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11783270.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11783270.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025 http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11783272.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11783272.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025

I can expect improvements when people learn from their mistakes. Tony's letter doesn't inspire confidence of having learned a lot. The whole posting of the letter seems to be about showing off some supposed long-running reliability and a redemption arc. More humility and less pointing fingers and self-aggrandizing talk would have made me a lot more forgiving than I find myself being now. The ongoing Damned crowdfunding delivery that's 1.5 years behind schedule and counting doesn't inspire confidence either.

And neither does this message from North Star's Nick over at LAF https://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=150938.msg1939764#msg1939764 :

Ken posted a comment about it on the Proxie Models FB page.

If you followed my ancient blog and have been around for years you may remember my interactions with Defiance Games.
I was paid a long time ago but did not want to deal with them again. So they owe me nothing and I have no ill will towards them.
The old leader of Defiance has revealed himself to be the leader of Wargames Atlantic. I suspected this a long time ago and asked but it was denied.
Very curious. I have some halflings and plan to buy some Spanish for my Oldhammer collection.
It is a strange flashback to a very difficult time and some lessons learned. I have some people who will never speak to me again from that mess. But the past is the past and I am blessed with a worsening memory.
Good luck to Wargames Atlantic. Judging from online comments the gaming community is a forgiving bunch with good natured attitudes.

Troll Forged's original owner, Ed Fortae, started doing work for Defiance at some point but allegedly was not paid (see e.g. comments under https://www.beastsofwar.com/sci-fi-wargaming/defiance-games-ready-german-armour-alien-war/)

Credit was gak, and of no use whatsoever to people from outside the US. Plus, only useable on the gak that they already gave us.

And they lost the license due to this clusterfeth, so that's ALSO on them.

They might not have produced anything (other than Titan Robotics, that I know of), but they HAVE licensed Rifts to another publisher (Savage Rifts, https://peginc.com/savage-settings/rifts/) to great success and multiple supplements, for which they get royalties, so it's not like they haven't been getting money either... they're just not doing anything to earn it.

And likewise, Wargames Atlantic is physically available in my local shop. I can walk in there and pick up a box. So I don't have to worry about "Will they deliver this time" because I'm only buying what is available in my local shop. If the Damned show up there someday I'll pick up a box. I'm looking forward to these space frogs coming at some stage, will definitely pick up a couple of boxes at least to do some Slann in 40K.

That's a really smart idea, most people just toss the box anyway so may as well put some of that effort printing it to work.

Please check your pledges are correct!
As the US fulfilment continues it is becoming clear that people have either failed to complete their pledges or have had issues with their pledge manager.

This is causing delays as we are having to correct orders and resend pledges out with return shipping labels, receive the stock back and potentially run additional production.

If no selections have been made your pledge will default to Damned Infantry. In the interest of moving things forward a little faster, all pledges that only include Damned Infantry will be held until confirmed correct or updated.

Please check your pledges. If it is incorrect and only shows Damned Infantry please email thedamned@wargamesatlantic.com and we will get you sorted.

Thirded! It's also seemingly a pretty universal upgrade sprue so I think it'd add value across their whole range.
Mix it in with a civie sprue and you could have Infested Terrans for Starcraft, more extreme mutations for Last War, or even revealed dopplegangers for a game based around The Thing.

Update on US shipping.
If you’ve been following the recent updates, you’ll know that we’ve encountered some issues affecting several pledges. I requested that any backers who believed their pledge was incorrect provide details, and the deadline for those submissions has now passed. Any requests received after this point will not be processed.

To correct over 100 pledges, I had to temporarily pause fulfilment in the US. I’m confident that all updates will be completed by the end of this week, with US fulfilment resuming on Monday, 17 November.

I understand how frustrating this must be. I’m personally going through and manually updating all of these pledges, so I do appreciate your patience.

Best wishes

Charlie

Mildly annoyed, but only because recent news of shipping reminded me about my order and thinking that they'd be here by now. My order has been correctly noted from the beginning so hopefully it will be here soon, but I'm not stressing.

I'd say "Welcome to the world of Crowdfunding!"

I do feel for you having to reschedule events, but it's good practice for the future to NEVER schedule anything around the arrival of a crowdfunded product.

Best to keep your expectations low, do your best to forget you ordered and enjoy the surprise when it arrives.

Of course, if a project massively blows up beyond expectations, it's usually unlikely that the original schedule can be kept - raising a hundred times the money doesn't typically allow you to scale up physical production by the same amount. Alongside "will I get anything at all", the delivery time is one of the main gambles you take with crowdfunding over ordering a product that's in stock somewhere.

But yeah, no, some companies and persons are absolutely better at creating realistic timelines (and/or adjusted timelines following the campaign), and sticking to them. Saying it's better than the likes of Kingdom Death is a woefully low bar.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11789770.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11789770.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025

Hm.... for miniatures games I'm not that sure... last I went in was the Epic Warpath one and it got late by about 5 months.

RPGs, OTOH... 2 Little Mice have always delivered about a month ahead of time (the various Household and Outgunned RPG Kickstarters), and so have all of Sine Nomine campaigns (All the "Without Number" games). Those two are pretty much a known quantity by now.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11789870.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11789870.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025

My memory is fuzzy, but I backed a few of the first Reaper Bones Kickstarters and they were pretty close to on time.

Mega Minis did a couple that delivered promptly. They were basically pre-orders for figures he had acquired and just needed the start up cash to put back in production.

I think the Ramshackle Games campaigns for "Nuclear Renaissance, Tome of Triddlins" and Space Dwarves did right. Same for the 2 Burrows and Badgers that I did.

Did several Mantic and half were late but they all delivered.

Very different companies, but they were all companies with a solid track record in minis and that I trusted.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11790067.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11790067.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025
It's worth noting as well that none of those examples include HIPS tooling (other than Mantic, which frequently runs late), which is really prone to timeline blowouts if it's being done properly.

It certainly would have been preferable for everyone involved if this particular project had run on time... but anyone backing a crowdfunding project should be keeping in mind that the estimated delivery is exactly that, and the more complex the project, the more likely that estimate will have to be revised along the way.

Definitely not what I was trying to say. I've got a pretty good track record of projects delivering close to on-time and I still expect lateness.

I showed the minis to a friend and he noticed that the basic Damned seem to be a little bit softer in detail than the other kits, such as the heavy troops. They were also lighter grey, so maybe just slightly translucent or something?

The beastmen have a bunch of head options besides “goat”. Mostly “cat”. They’re also slighter than standard Damned, closer to female Damned in proportion.

But these are small complaints. The sprues look great.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11792478.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11792478.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025 ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11792595.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11792595.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025 http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11792597.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11792597.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025 de-evil are they?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11792599.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11792599.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025 http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11792639.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11792639.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025

December 5, 2025 Wargames Atlantic
Introducing Sprue Game!
Let's get a little crazy once more!

It's time once again for Wargames Atlantic to embrace the unknown and leave our fate in the hands of our dear customers and fans! In the past we've held a contest to vote for a pair of traditional adversaries. The winners of that contest were the Conquistadors vs Aztecs. We also did a contest that resulted in the Landsknecht Ogres. And we've asked for lots and lots of hard plastic ideas over the years.

Let's do it again! This will be a multi-stage contest that will result in a new 10mm or 28mm hard plastic set!


Here's how it works:

Step 1: today we open up submissions (using the form below) to enter your ONE idea for a new 10mm or 28mm hard plastic set. Those who want to participate will submit just the title of a set like WW2 Home Guard Postmen or Post Apocalyptic Candy Stripers or Twin Suns of Mars Orphan Pickpockets. Please don't ask for Star Wars Stormtroopers or Game of Thrones Lannisters or Dune Sardaukar or (the gods forbid) anything Games Workshop related!!! (as we don't own the rights to make ANY of those!) You will also have to use the dropdown menu to choose the range your entry fits into or, as we know some of you will, the "Other" category.



Don't do this. (Art of Quigonjim)

Step 2: after we've received enough entries we'll put them to the vote. This vote may be done in rounds (if there are a huge number of entries) or divided by category depending on what comes in. Eventually we'll reduce them down to your Top 10.

Those who submitted the Top 10 ideas will each get their choice of a Wargames Atlantic plastic set. In the case of duplicate entries it will be determined on a first-submitted basis. You are allowed one submission per person and only the first submission will be counted.



So many choices!

Step 3: the Top 10 will be put to a vote with the winner going into production. We'll include the community in every step of the production process from the creation of the sculpting brief, to first work-in-progress renders, to 3D prints, to the sprue layout, the illustration for the box, the painted figures, and finally to the sprue itself. Whoever submitted the winning entry will also win your choice of any 12 existing or upcoming plastic sets!

You can add one or two to plenty of armies, and roleplayers love pets for their characters.

Other ideas I was tempted to suggest (feel free to steal and submit if you like):
Various Lovecraft monsters - all in public domain, many lacking decent representation in miniature form. The 'elder things' from At the Mountains of Madness are the hardest to find miniatures for, and seem well-suited to a multi-part kit (couple of bits for the body, folded and unfolded wings, few sets of tentacles, assorted feet and heads). Deep Ones / Classic Fantasy Fishmen / Tritons / Gill-men etc. are another option, as are the 'fungi from Yuggoth' (Mi-Go according to Chaosium, but that isn't really consistent with The Whisperer in Darkness), Cone-Beings (the old hosts for the Great Race of Yith), and ghouls of the rubbery dog-face variety.
There are a ton of options for animal kits. Either something like a pack of ordinary wolves (possibly with some weird parts for fantasy / horror) or a collection of themed animals (e.g. North-American wildlife with bears, cougars, coyotes, rattlesnakes, etc. beasts of burden with camels, mules, and so on with a load of pack bits, horror animals with bats, rats, centipedes, and the like).
Maggots, worms, and leeches. The giant maggots from the Weird War sprue are so good (and, I'm sorry to say, the rest of the sprue is so bad) the sculptor should really be allowed to expand into a kit dedicated to horrible soft-bodied invertebrates.
Modular robots have already been suggested, but some more specific robot kits could also work. Robo-dogs, UAVs (quadcopters, loitering munitions, FPV bombers), sentry guns...
Classic Fantasy: Ape-Men. A staple of sword-and-sorcery fiction. Different heads can give you everything from hirstute Frank Frazetta-style cavemen to upright apes or even morlocks.
Classic-Fantasy: Cave-Women in Fur Bikinis. I don't think I need to explain this.
Classic-Fantasy: Beefcake Barbarians. I don't think anyone actually makes a kit of just Arnold-as-Conan style bodybuilders in fur breechclouts. Seems like a gap in the market.
Death-Fields: Chainsaw-sword-wielding Masochistic Nuns. OK, it might not be the best name, but I think we all know that a certain plastic kit from another company really let a lot of people down. We deserve better.
Classic Fantasy: Chimeras. Finally, WA can really indulge their desire to add alternative heads to their sprues.
An absolute ton of basic mythical creatures could easily work in the classic fantasy range. Harpies and minotaurs seem especially ripe for decent sculpts.
Classic Fantasy: Medieval Rabbit-Men. Everyone's favourite weirdness from the margins of illustrated manuscripts. Possibly mounted on giant snails.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11793581.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11793581.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025 Snakeman: Various snake/cobra heads with human shaped torso and tails instead of legs, with both fantasy and sci-fi weapon/gun arms like the lizardman box

Don't worry we fixed it!
So this is somewhat embarasing but you're in this too - there's only one power backpack on the main Heavy Infantry sprue! We don't know how it happened and nobody called it out for months but here we are. We realized last month the set wasn't complete without enough backpacks to hook the tubes into. So we had to quickly tool up some backpacks and here they are.

Production has already finished in the UK and they are hitting the warehouse later this week. The US production on these will take place as soon as we get the mold over from the UK.

So slainte we're sorry about the mess up but fixing it now!

IIRC, a mutations sprue might have been one of the stretch goals that wasn't reached? I'm not even doing a Chaos force and I'd have had a sprue or two just for general conversions. Luckily my bits box has a fair amount of mutant-ish bits and lots of CCW in it, but a proper sprue would be such a useful addition and so many folks have asked about one over the years.

Another set worth looking at if you're ok with more heavily armored Beastmen is "Frostgrave Demons"

https://www.northstarfigures.com/prod.php?prod=15222





Only one major style of Beastman head and not the animal varieties that I like, but there's enough to do the whole set as beastmen and lots of weapon options. Between the two kits you could probably mix and match and make nicely varried light and Heavy Beastman units.

You could also separate out some of the less beasty torsos to make chaos warriors.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11794169.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11794169.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025
Here's the WIP of the mutation sprue that WGA showed at the time (as applied to standard male Damned troopers):



I'd like a lot more variety than this WIP shows, but I'd certainly buy the complete version, and I still think a mutation sprue like this is a great idea. Note that they made the mutations so they'd fit in with fantasy as well as they do with sci-fi.

One objection the last time I brought it up was that mutations can look silly or cartoonish (I don't remember the exact turn of phrase,) but I don't really think that's an issue. GW's chaos mutants have always been partly absurd, since their mutations are based on sin and dark magic rather than genetics. That said, 'proper' sci-fi mutants frequently look a bit silly as well - The Thing (not technically a mutant, but it was essentially always mutating) grew a mouth in its stomach, which was horrific and one of Carpenter's most famous gruesome moments, but it (not to mention the equally memorable walking spider head) was also a bit ridiculous, even wryly humorous. And how many variations on tentacled humans have you seen over the course of your sci-fi geekhood? Why are tentacles (rather than, say, beaks) considered the most probable mutations by so many sci-fi properties? Basically because they look cool. Miniature mutants have always been a bit silly, and gamers nevertheless love them, warts and all.

I'm basically of the opinion that you can never have too many options for mutations, so a mutation sprue would be an easy sell to me. I'd happily buy 20 completely different mutation sprues.

And yes, you can 3-D print mutation options, but that's not really saying anything. You can 3-D print your entire miniature collection these days, but enough people still prefer polystyrene's ease of use, higher durability, and lesser toxicity that traditional miniature manufacturers are still in business.

As long as the quality and variety of a hard plastic mutation sprue were done well, I think it would sell. In WGA's case, the existence of the Damned line of products even gives it an immediate context. I bet there'd be plenty of Damned buyers (not to mention kitbashers of other lines) who'd like to add variety to their troopers and beastmen with some choice mutations. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11794189.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11794189.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025 ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11794202.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11794202.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025

For a fairly realistic take on morlocks/mutants

I'd be interested in a bespoke mutant kit (with lots of extra compatible bits) rather than a mutant upgrade sprue.

Interstingly the "The Damned" Beastmen, actually fit this pretty well. Not much in terms of mutations, but the sprue includes a variety ofnon-sci-fi beastmen animal head types and options for hands with CCWs. Also, their armor/shirts are as suitable for fantasy as sci-fi.

Could really be spiced up with an additional sprue of arms, sheilds, weapons and mutations though...

I deliberately ordered some of these with the intention of doing them as fantasy troops. I'll probably add a few bits and pieces from my bits library though.

They're the Beastmen kit from "The Damned" crowd fund campaign.

Looks like it's going to be a great year for Baron's War.

I don't think it's Men at Arms, they're not really relevant for the period. The description in the image seems to read 'Men of...' so I think it's actually something different.

For Outremer, I think it's Seljuks rather than settlers.

Update 92 wrote:Here's a little update on where we are as of today.

Hello all!

Let's just get straight into it. The Heavy Infantry Backpacks are complete in the UK and we are now in the process of migrating all of the data for the UK, EU and RoW pledges from Gamefound into Shopify to begin fulfilment. All being well that should begin at the beginning of January.

The Heavy Infantry Backpack mold has just landed in the US and will be with the factory soon. When it lands the team will start running the mold which won't take too long. We should be in a position to resume fulfilment at the same time as the UK/EU/RoW at the beginning of January.

It has been great to see some of The Damned on peoples painting desks. I can't wait for everyone else to get theirs!

Best wishes

Charlie

That would be the Thule.

Common (by which I mean the minis used in the example warbands for Saga) often depicts them more like people from 500 years later, but that region is COLD. Oddly the closest models I've found for general wargaming pseudo accuracy are the free folk raiders from CMON's ASOIAF game, and perhaps a few minis from other boxes in that range. Heavy sealskin clothing, bone weapons, fur lining.

Both the UK and US fulfilment centres are ready to resume shipping.
The Heavy Infantry Power Packs are now in both UK and US fulfilment centres. Our UK fulfilment partners will begin shipping the UK, EU and RoW orders next week. Our US fulfilment centre will also resume shipping next week.

It has been great to see The Damned appearing on hobby tables assembled and some painted already. I am really excited to see everyone else receive their Damned over the next few weeks.

Those that received Heavy Infantry without the power packs will receive the back pack frames in a separate package and those will be sent out alongside the rest of the pledges over the next few weeks.

I'm even more convinced from these pics that these may be the solution for fantasy beastmen (with weapon swaps) as well as Sci-Fi.

One sprue of alternate heads/arms/weapons, and you could easily package them as a fantasy unit. I've got a box and a sprue coming (not shipped yet) and I'm going back and forth with how many I want to build as Fantasy and how many Sci-FI. I'll also be curious to see how these scale up against North Star SciFi plastics.

Going to go ahead and save and post the same images below so they'll be here beyond FB's whims.

DON'T SUPERGLUE HARD PLASTIC MODELS!

Our Hard Plastic Solvent is designed specifically for our plastic (High Impact Polystyrene or HIPS). Whereas superglue just "sticks" two parts together and is prone to come apart under duress, solvent literally fuses the two pieces together. The applicator brush is also great to smooth over the join lines between parts (for example where the arm meets the shoulder). For best results, start with our Hard Plastic Clippers and Hard Plastic Nano Files to expertly prep your models for painting.

They will be buying it somewhere. There only are a few companies in the world that produce butanone because it only makes sense to produce it in bulk. And even all the MEK that's used worldwide for plastic cement by hobbyists won't add up to all that much in the grand scheme of things (like, 1.8 million tons per year). Of course, they might have made their own mix but even then, production will be done at a company that actually is equipped to mix chemicals and, more importantly, safely fill small bottles with something that just loves to burn.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11802257.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11802257.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025

The front weapon is flamer or laser. There is no hole under it. The front of the vehicle is solid, and the the gun and the driver compartment are surface mounted in divots.

The hatch ring is built in. You can open the hatch, but you would need to cut the whole thing off to try and replace it.

was mostly wondering if the size of the hatch was similar to that of a 40K vehicle like a Rhino. there is a strong market for bits meant to fit various weapons options into the crew hatches of GW tanks, to make it easier to field various weapons options (like twin plasmaguns on rhinos) that the kits don't offer. including some mini-turrets for more of a early WW2 feel.

if the hatch size on this is close enough to the GW standard hatch size, that would expand the conversion options rather a lot without forcing extensive modifications to the base kit.

You do sometimes have to use a bit more MEK than model adhesive/solvent as MEK evaporates really quickly. However if you consider that 32 oz of MEK at the hardware store costs the same ($9.99) as 1 oz of Plastic Model Solvent, the value proposition is pretty clear.

Infantry is good, I had a couple shoulder gaps but nothing that wouldn't be fixed with greenstuff or better assembly on my part. The gas masks are a tad disappointing as they only look good facing straight forward, so it limits the poseability of the mini even more

Heavy weapons and artillery absolutely need assembly instructions. I was able to work out most of it looking at the examples on the gamefound page, but I messed up the support legs on the artillery carriage and they don't seem to align correctly with the triangle foot part of it. The join between those two bits is also really bad, it's supposed to be a nub and hole but they don't fit well. If there was ever a redesign I would recommend a triangle shape nub and hole so the parts can only be put together one way.

looks like that also answers my hatch question. pretty close to the same size, enough that you shouldn't need much tweaking

and if it is the size of the Rockgrinder/Goliath Truck, it'll be bigger than the Guard vehicles. but maybe not by much

Warlord's plastic kits are better described as following GW's super buff dudes look. I think the original Germans and Americans had larger heads on top of that.

You do have a point, but again, those would be a pet project and they'd never see the table because of the rigid adherence to the aforementioned two games. Though the kit-bashing of Turnip28 does have some appeal. Still for kit-bashing I have Stargrave, Frostgrave, and Guards of Traitors Toll. (I've the old Mordheim sprues and bitz and I've been using them over the years when they seem right for a project. Some of them seem right for Guards of Traitors Toll.)

As this is a WGA thread, I have used Les Grognards and Raumjager for Stargrave kit-bashes, as well as Cannon Fodder. Need to make the Cannon Fodder II in the same theme (Space 1999) and paint the Space 1999 SG crew. Similarly, I bought Bulldogs for British-themed SG crews, but have not gotten around to them.

Edit: Oh, and both Cannon Fodder sets will provide miners for the appropriate Last Prospector scenario. Got the Oathmark Dwarf sprues for the picks as well as the WGA .stl civilian Cannon Fodder set. {Although while I suspect hand-powered tools will be with humanity for a long, long time, I'd liked some rock drills and concrete saws for said miners.}

I feel ya, our original wargaming club has straight up banned non 40k players about 2 years ago and the new club pretty much only plays Conquest. I've resigned myself to having to travel to get games in, I go to the neighboring country to the north for Kings of War and to the south for Forbidden Psalm, Necropolis and other blanchitsu stuff, once or twice a year each. And I run a world class Turnip28 event here, but play maybe 3 games a year myself. The heavy slant towards prep time versus gaming time does mean that the few games I get look amazing, however, and I get to only play with hand-picked folks who match my energy and my taste in games.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11803886.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11803886.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025

The Command sprue has a similar issue. 3 human bodies, 3 gas masked heads with holes for filter, but only one filter. There is one head with gas mask where the filter his hidden under a cloth though, so if you used that one, you'd only be short one.

Not the biggest issue, and there is some possibility to borrow a filter from some kits sprues that have an extra, but overall it's an annoying mistake that may affect gamers wishing to field a more uniform all-masked army.

It won't affect me as these will supplement forces that use Pig Iron Colony helmeted gas mask heads (and these will also) but I thought folks should know.

If it had been caught earlier, they could have put some on the backpack sprue and shipped it out with various kits.

so if the army box conforms to what was in the gamefound campaign, it will apparently have 30 infantry (18 male, 12 female), 6 Brutes, 3 heavy weapons teams (3 models each), 1 artillery team (3 models) and 5 command models.

which honestly is a pretty good start to an army. no price given yet but most people are figuring it'll cost similar to the WGA fantasy line Skeleton army box in the $90-100 range, since it's basically 3 1/2 normal boxes or so of models, which at current prices would run about $100-120 before bulk sale discounts.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11804994.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11804994.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025 http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11805014.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11805014.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025

Generally the STLs are different factions or oddball fun civilian models or conversion bits that aren't too likely to see plastic.

As to the rules, it's all a bit confusing because of some name, scale, and scope confusion.

The tl;dr is that the current quite small scope
skirmish game that's getting the rulebook treatment is Clash of Rhyfles - it got a small quickstart book last year (or two, what is time even) when the first regular infantry sprue for two factions were released. CoR is reasonably small - a dozen or less dudes a side is a reasonable game (though you can of course go up) and as is always the case with tabletop gamers most people build bigger collections and get bigger models so rules creep up in scope. The hardback thus includes rules for tractors (their tanks), cavalry, autopeds (their motorcycles), and light weapon teams. That being said, it still mostly zooms in on a couple handfuls of models per side.

All previous rulebooks, bar the one that was in partnership with Ganesha Games, are free to download in their entirety - fluff, art, rules, etc.

They are ALSO working on a bigger battles game - they have an older one that was for bigger-er battles in 15mm. For my tastes CoR is lovely as a game where an NCO leads their small team. I felt in playing it that the resolution mechanic (while a bit clunky at first) really felt like every action had the possibility to tell a story. Result for combat actions in particular aren't binary, so you might dive for cover, fire back, backpedal, knock someone out, or have the firer flub hard. The bell curve on the dice means weird stuff isn't constantly happening either, but I did find in the games we played that it was easy to narrate moments emerging from gameplay.

I'm ALSO excited for the upcoming bigger battles game because I did wind up expanding my initial squad into a company (they don't really have a platoon equivalent in their world; companies are ~55 minis) as they released command and specialist sprues for each of the two initial factions. Another friend picked up the third plastic faction, and two more are coming with a new box set that includes the hardback rules, as well as plastic additions to the ones already available - cavalry (they've released a couple of tractors in plastic too).

While I understand that people find the layout offputting, I'll note the rules are nowhere as complex as 2E 40k, but I also haven't bothered with tractors yet and I'll assimilate the cavalry and support weapons once we get plastics out for those. But the infantry firefight rules are 30ish A5 pages with lots of white space and relatively big text, and the profiles for each faction are a couple pages on top.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11807089.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11807089.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025
The biggest crime so far in the rules is they mixed up rounds and turns and it sounds deranged. Players alternate taking rounds and 10 rounds is a turn. Once I spotted this, at least my worries about tracking information over time ("until the end of the round" stuff) were alleviated. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11807090.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11807090.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025 FLGS.

I bought a couple of the rulesets over the years just to read about Quar without ever purchasing the minis. Nine of them really grabbed me. Now I've got a box full of metal Quar and if I ever get around to painting them, I'll probably just use Grimdark Future and Grimdark Future Firefight.

There's also the potential to adapt Quar in other ways. A member of our club did them up in his own scheme with a VOTOMS suit and MaK-style homemade hover tank as a sort of Imperial Guard proxy. It appeared in this battle report.

I had opted for 'one box of everything' barring the Terrae Motus, which became the Mauler. I have the following kits in hand:
Command
Ogryns
Infantry
Female Infantry
Heavy Infantry (including the backpack sprues)
Abhuman Infantry
Hounds and Handlers
Cavalry
Weapons Teams
Artillery Teams

I have to say they look pretty great, clean moulds with very little flash and good detail. There are no bases, instructions or boxes at all, just a great big pile of sprues but they look fairly foolproof.

Saying all that, Its been over 2.5 years, a long time, in which my wife and I have slightly unexpectedly had another baby when we had thought we were past that life stage, so I will slightly regretfully be selling them; a militia army is no longer in my future.

If you want the models, please do DM.

If you have questions about the sprues for the thread, post them here.

Someone please tell me what to think of the ruleset.

From a quick skim over the rules -

Pros:
- It's relatively simple, and would be easy to learn.
- 'Freeform' activation (you can activate any model except the last one you activated, rather than having set 'rounds' activating every model) provides some interesting tactical choices.
- 'Stress' level affects how well models perform.

Cons:
- D10
- Symbols for stats. Less of a problem once you're used to the game and playing it regularly, but a barrier to entry as you have to remember what is what.
- Stress increases and decreases are triggered by pretty much anything a model does, which is sort of realistic, but feels fiddly.
- Attacks are a straight 'roll above your stat' roll regardless of what you are attacking. So poking a basic trooper with a stick and poking an elite assassin with a stick carry the exact same level of difficulty.
- Models are automatically pushed backwards by successful attacks. I don't know why.
- LoS is from base edge to base edge, disregarding model height. Terrain is abstracted, with LoS dependent on the size of the terrain rather than the size of the models trying to see over it or standing on it.
- No team customisation. Troopers have apparently been fighting for up to several millenia, but never improve their skills. Or, at least, there is no mention of any customisation in the core rules - it's possible this is in the individual team documents.

- on a non-game related note, having to go through webstore checkout (including adding a billing address) to download a free PDF is a little annoying.


I will point out that my cons are entirely personal opinions rather than mechanical issues. Structurally, the game seems fine. I do wonder if the freeform activation structure will result in players mostly just using their captain or specialist models and ignoring the rest of the team for the bulk of the game, though. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11809470.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11809470.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025 http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11809505.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11809505.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025 http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11809531.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11809531.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025

I can't see any issues so far. I haven't tried mixing male/ female kits yet to see if there's a size disparity there but I'm not the sort of person to find that an issue once the models are in a squad.

I'm loving what i've played with so far,

It's almost the perfect crowdfunder, a great product, great value with the expected far longer than you expect delay. The delivery delays for non-US backers was a bit annoying but hey, the value was really, really good

The kits should fit so well in so many SF/post apocalypes games, and the beastmen even broadens the appeal out to the fantasy folk. I hope WGA does great business from them when they hit retail

I am really looking forward to these. I've split evenly between the female figures, because after the modifications I make they won't be as chunky as the male figures would, and the Heavies, which will become a proxy for Solar Auxilia, or something similar. Have a ton of Anvil Industry Medieval Sci-Fi helmets to pair up with them, and I think they'll work well together. Oh and one of each of the other sprue types as I want to check them out and see if I might like to use them for something later on.

Ultimately, I want to make miniatures that look like this for my IG allies, which will be paired with my Ad-Mech force.



Using washed and dried disposable wipes molded with diluted PVA glue for the coat, some greenstuff for the tubes and satchel air-filter, and I should be good. I am also using some 1/35 WWII tanks which I will convert to be Leman Russ, Rogal Dorn and Baneblade sized tanks, so they look different from all the other ones out there.

Neatly packed, everything is there (8 kits + 35 free sprues, extra heavy backpacks in abundance...) and I mix/maxed the hell out of the sprue selector, going heavy on Cav and Heavy Weapons that come with ancillary sprues. And not a single piece broken, either.

Casting quality (sharpness, mold lines) ranges from okay to perfect, depending on unit.

It's a good kit overall, and damn impressive for Atlantic's almost first multi-sprue vehicle kit (I just remembered they did a pair of Quar tanks already)

Good tolerances, decent ease of building (a bit tricky to start the cabin with 4 overlapping pieces needing to be jiggled in at once... but considerably easier than most modern Horus Heresy tanks), good choice of build options, sprues crammed more than GW's.

The open platform and closed cab can be made swappable by trimming a 1mm tab off of one bit, so I guess they lose 1% for not just casting it without that tab in the first place

As far as Atlantic's own IP goes, I expect the Mauler will be available to other Death Fields factions as it has none of the battle damage common to other Damned kits.

Fitting it into 40k will take a little bit of work as for weapon mounts it only has the classic IG front hull mount and a hatch pintle, so it falls a bit short of working as a Chimera or Taurox. But the aesthetic is great, certainly a better fit than the new GW halftrack

I had asked for 1 sprue of the Cannon Fodder Arms and Equipment, but I was sent the bodies instead. I will need to contact them about that, as I really need the helmets from that sprue, dangit.
I received 13 sprues of backpacks. Is this the correct number? Should have I received 16, to equal the amount of Heavy Infantry I received? Each sprue has 3 smaller sprues of 6 backpacks, so I am pretty well covered, I just don't know what the exact ratio we should have is.

Thoughts: I am so glad I opted for the female infantry in comparison to the male. They're the same height, but much slimmer, and proportionally just look better. This will allow me to add coats and cloaks over the top of them, and not have them look weird. Will need to scrape or file down the chest armour a bit, and fill back in. I'd rather they stay somewhat androgynous. Its at this point I remember I have a full set of Statuesque miniatures that I can convert to make into veterans, command units, commissars etc, as they'll have the same basic proportions. Plus a bunch of the gas masks and helmet heads which is exactly what I need. Score! Edit:Just saw the new units for 11th edition. I think a bunch of the Statuesque miniatures would work really well as a Spectre Squad, with their variety of weapons and cool poses. I think this will be the go for me. The others will be used as command and veterans.

Overall, it's taken a long while to get here, but I am really glad it has. I really love the design of the miniatures, and I am very happy about having picked the ones I did. If I could go back and choose again, I'd probably drop one of the boxes of Heavy Infantry so I could get one of the vehicles. It's not necessary, but they look really good.

in terms of backpacks you should have 1 tiny sprue of 6 packs per heavy infantry sprue (they were included since there was only one pack on the HI sprue and you need them to plug the power cable for the dual laser gun into so the additional tiny sprue lets you build all 6 as stnadard las troops)]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11816094.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11816094.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025

Well in that case, by receiving 13 sprues of 18, I've well over-received, so I am going to call the loss of the Cannon Fodder arm sprue a draw. I will likely just buy the box itself later on to use to make a David Lynch Dune Sardaukar unit for Kill Team.

Yes, I received the Cannon Fodder bodies rather than the weapons arms as well. Like you, the hassle and bother of stomping over those when I consider the amount of extra bits I received for my 15 box pledge doesn't seem worth it. plus, realistically, will I ever finish all of these projects anyway?

It has to be said, however, that while I'm very happy with what I got at kickstarter prices, I would say that at least the heavy weapons team is not fit for retail. Besides at least one gun being physically impossible to assemble (doesn't fit through the gun shield, and doesn't have a hole for the peg on its power cable) - and one other can barely be squeezed through if you scrape the rivets a bit - and most of the gun shield pegs being much too tight and needing to be cut off entirely, the kit also has one single trigger pulling arm on the crew sprue, and no other handle/trigger parts at all, and no other arms that directly interact with the guns.

There are a multitude of arms as you say but with no build instructions, our individual views may not meet the intentions of the designers. I used what looks like the crank arms for the first sets I built but that leaves the arms too long for the gunner to fit the stool. I also used the wrong legs and had the single leg forward rather than facing backwards.

By making the crew for the heavy weapons and the ordnance on the same frame, it is a little Jack Of All Trades.

For the energy weapon/ lascannon, I've cut off the small connecting strut on the bottom of the gun shield opening because, yes, the weapon doesn't fit through.

If that is the designer's intention, some details even if it's only an online pdf should be provided. It's not Orland the Technicoloured's job to inform us as useful as his posts have been.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11818112.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11818112.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025
Useful if you need more tripods or more copies of a particular gun tho.

Recycling assets does make this kit feel a little phoned in, in contrast to the excellent Mauler.

There is a free assembly download for GoTT at Grey For Now Games, but it does not tell you what arms are supposed to pair.

https://greyfornow.com/collections/tt-free-downloads

With the Northstar Stargrave kits, the arms for carbines or other long arms pair numerically, so arms 1 and 2 are for that gun, 3 and 4 are for the other gun. While they do not say that in the kit, they mention that on their website.

On the one hand nothing I see there would be hard to cut and reposition to better make it look like the weapon is being operated. Give the low price, it's not something that would deter me if I purchased that kit.

On the other hand, for the wider audience, it's not great for a kit to require modding right out of the box. Especially when the classic GW set-of-arms-holding-trigger-handles is such an easy part to put on a sprue and one that could work across weapons.

Does make me more glad that I didn't order any Heavy weapons, but from what I hear, the artillery aren't exactly easy to assemble and I ordered a few of them.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11818173.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11818173.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025

As it is I'm using random heads from WA bulldogs, not-germans and prisoner sets.

From what I've seen from the Gamefound comments, they've apparently got "less than 40 pledges to fullfill", and there are people from all over the world, even places such as Indonesia, saying that they are receiving their pledges. So maybe WGA just wants to be done with this, before releasing anything new? And once they actually fullfill the pledges, everything will return to normal, and we'll get all the promised ready-to-be-released "Coming Soon" sets, such as the Egyptians, and the Release Schedule page will return?

That's my theory at least. Just keep in mind that I am not subscribed to the E-Mail newsletter (I subscribed to it actually, but it didn't work sadly and I didn't receive any news E-Mails) and im not on the official WGA Facebook Group, as Facebook for some reason won't let me make an account, so maybe I might be missing something.

I have used the chariots with their Persians and they fit in fine with the puddle bases, and then the guys can get out for skirmish games too.

Not to everyone's tastes, but it worked fine in my games.


I hope someone is working on a box of plastic Sea People to fight (and or ally with) these guys.

Alas, judging by how WGA releases their kits, it might take years to release them, but who knows? It took only two years for some kits to be designed and released (f.e. The Operators), so im trying not to be a doomer.

I really wish more companies would pick up on the Bronze Age in plastic; anytime anyone releases something in plastic from Ancient times, it's always the Romans,Greeks or the ocassional Barbarians (Gauls, Germanics, etc.), and I don't mind that, as Romans are cool, and I have a few Victrix ones and plan on buying more, but still - literally no company releases plastic Egyptians, Sea People, Mesopotamians, etc. And it genuinely suprises me - it's not like the Ancient period is some sort of highly niche historical period, and some of those civilizations that get no plastic miniatures are some of the most famous civilizations of the Ancient world (f.e. Ancient Egyptians), so im 100% sure it's not a "too niche of a historical faction" thing.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11820711.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11820711.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025 http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11820714.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11820714.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025

Perry Miniatures offers some really cool plastic Gothic plate knights that are similar to these; unfortunately, the coolest-looking sallet helmets that are really big like the ones on these are only in their "Mounted Men at Arms" set.

Love me some perry but their proportions do not mesh well with most fantasy games, not even most historical ranges that go more on the chunky side like victrix or WGA outside their foot knights.


Absolutely understandable. Personally I used to mind that when I started wargaming, being a person who is very obsessive over details and wanting to have everything done 100% perfectly but over time I got over it, and my wargaming minis collection is a mixture of practically everything - I don't mind the proportions looking slightly off when im having fun, like here:



A photo from my most recent fantasy wargaming session, featuring the Perry knights and some Fireforge knights. Both kits have very distinctive proportions, with the Fireforge ones being far more chunky, and the Perry ones being more realistic, but still - it doesn't look too bad in my opinion and most of all, I had fun gaming!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11820792.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11820792.page GMT Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025

Yeah that was my theory, that it's because they're focusing on the Damned deliveries. For a while I was genuinely worried they cancelled the upcoming plastics as they removed the release schedule, but then the Foot Command got released, and we got the "list of upcoming releases" in the Newsletter E-Mail which containted all of the kits they were bound to release.

Now I only wonder if that list is going to be moving chronologically; if the next kit to be released is the Barons' War Mounted Command and Retinue Box, or it's a roulette between the Mounted Command, the Shipping Containers, the Egyptians and the Damned Army Box (Im singling out these four, as they were the olny ones with the "Coming Soon" next to them the last day the Release Schedule got axed).

As I said, I hope i'll get myself to the Egyptians soon; i've ben waiting for this kit for four years at this point.

they seem to be in the process of revising their website, based on what i've seen. they've redone their sales pages (adding the deathfeilds category, removing the weird war/"the last war" section. etc), and changed how their forums work slightly (removing the "new threads" list, leaving just the "new posts" listing) and so on. so i'd guess that they pulled their release schedule page because it's so out of date, and it'll return after they finish up their kickstarter related efforts and return to making regular releases.


That's what I was thinking too, that it's just a temporary thing until they finally finalize the Damned campaign. From what I heard from the Gamefound comments, they're on the last stretch, last month (?) someone said that they've got less than 40 pledges to fullfill, and they've ben sending pledges to backers as far as Indonesia, so maybe, just maybe, we're gonna finally see the end of the Damned campaign soon, after three years.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11821919.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/812570/11821919.page GMT Re:Wargames Atlantic New Releases and News 2025

I think part of what’s happening at the moment with new releases is that they are trying to build up stock on both sides of the pond before it goes up for sale. I think Andy mentioned in a recent interview that demand for the likes of the Barons War stuff is really high. I suspect they are trying to balance production between keeping things like that in stock and getting new releases out the door.

Steve

That's the vibe I got from previous posts. The production on both sides of the Atlantic both slows things slightly but makes product availability more consistent. I think also having a product line tied to their own game, since Andy is in house now, means more quarterly focus on particular lines. All good things, IMO.
