We mentioned that we had a few surprises to kick off 2012, and here's parts 2 & 3 for your delectation (Part 1 being the new Falkland's pics here: http://www.pendrakenforum.co.uk/index.php/topic,4378.0.html!)

Firstly, Techno has been busy doing us some brand new Marines to replace the current ones, which have been busily fighting the Alien creatures for abour 15 years now!  The new figures are excellent sculpts, more modern and generally cool-looking!  Thanks to Nik for the painting!




These new figures can fit into a variety of settings easily with a simple change of colour scheme:




These initial types have been converted into battle armour as well, and we also have a brand new heavy gun, which we'll be getting some pics taken of soon. 


Secondly, I've been busy myself, working on some Sci-Fi modules, in the same vein as the current Dungeon pieces.  I'm hoping to finish these over the weekend, and then I'll get some pics taken of them for everyone.

We'll be re-organising the whole Sci-Fi range into sections, so Humans, Alien Creatures, etc. all with new coding.  The original Marine figures will still be in there, but right at the end of the lists.

:D

I'll be looking at March/April releases I'd think for the new figures.  The modules will be dependant on how much time I can find to get them completed.

Hmmmm....

Shall I ask that nice Mr Leon, if he'd like me to make something that resembles a 'mertinator' ...without getting too close & hearing the phrase 'intellectual property'.....A 'Mortinator' perhaps ? ;)

Cheers - Phil.

Well, while we're on the wish list...

Power armour troops (pretty sure that's not going to infringe IP) - check out the suits for Starship Troopers and the 'anti acid' suits for Aliens.

Support troops (seconding republic of tolworth)

Vehicles (military and civvies/colonists)

Also, another faction (preferable human)!
Its all well and good putting one lot together but you need someone to fight who can shoot back... :D

Sure there are not-Aliens, and not-Bugs, but they're just fancy Zulus.  We need other chaps to fight.

Laserburn: Imperium vs Red Redemption
Aliens: Corporate Wars and Colonial Marines
Firefly: Purplebellies vs browncoats
Star Wars: Empire vs Rebels
Dune / Fading Suns / Battletech:  Noble houses fighting each other
The factions in rules like the new Tomorrow's War rules...

And of course since the Company-that-shall-not-be-named has basically stolen all its ideas from history, basing your sci-fi figs on WWI French/Germans, WWII Russians, Vietnam Americans, etc. will also open up lots of 'epic' options... (that said i suppose you already have those infantry, so...vehicles!!!)

Etc..

Not sure on this one, we've got a new heavy gun, but nothing else planned.

Sci-Fi vehicles are going to fall into the same bracket as regular ones, finding a designer to do them.
