Title: What We're Working On 2015!
Post by: Leon on 18 January 2015, 10:59:15 PM
It's about time we updated this for everyone, so here's the new updated list for 2015, showing what we'll be getting designed over the next 12 months or so.  We'll be working hard this year to get everything released and onto your tables a lot quicker as well!

What We're Working On - January 2015

Squishy
1. Napoleonics - French Guard being done at the moment, followed by some more Prussians and then onto the Dutch-Belgians.
2. WW1 - A few additions here and there as we work our way through the centenary.

Phil (Techno)
1. Fantasy! - More information coming on this soon, so keep an eye out for it...
2. Ancients - The revamp was put to one side temporarily as we got this Fantasy stuff done, so we'll be coming back to the Ancients soon with the Dacians, Greeks and Persians coming next.

Oh good. More LoA. I thought the Brunswick Camel Corps was under-represented.

Which Persaians, Sassanians and Acmenids both need several more figures. In particular commanders for both - and Elephants for the Sassanians.

will be keeping my eye on the WWI additions, but this is now mainly confined to the Eastern Front in 10mm. Developing on this into Russian Civil War and Russo-Polish War

It got put on the back burner unfortunately, which was a shame.  We've got some walkers, some infantry, the Maus & Ratte, etc all here, they just need getting into production moulds really.  The two big tanks are with the resin caster and we're hoping to have those back with us around Salute time I think.

Sounds good.  Very happy to see there is an extensive list of Modern vehicles in the queue.

MIA though, are Modern (post-WWII, so from the 1950s - 1980s) Soviet infantry, which obviously will be needed, and could be put to use with some of the early Cold War vehicles you have released already, e.g. your BTR-50s, and OT-62s, plus PT-76s, T-54s and T-55s, amongst others..

If pressed, we can field US Vietnam era troops, and British/Argentine troops against them, since they'll work for their respective nations, and in some cases, for others as well, e.g. Argentines could be late 1950s era West Germans for several years, and perhaps could serve as Danish troops too, at least until more suitable troops can be produced.

So, hopefully, someone can find the time in the near future to sculpt up at least a few poses to permit us to field some Russian/Warsaw Pact squads.

At a minimum, the following poses would be very useful:  standing/firing AK-47, kneeling/firing AK-47, kneeling/firing RPG-7, advancing with AK-47, prone/firing AK-47, prone/firing LMG, advancing with LMG, and standing/firing SA-7 MANPAD SAM.  Of course, a leader figure, and advancing with RPG-7 would be nice, as well, in addition to other troops too: mortar crew firing and mortar, automatic grenade launcher firing, and casualty figures.

Looking forward to seeing the fantasy stuff develop, especially if they have the same range of poses as the gobbos and dwarfs ;)

Probably a silly question, but any time scale on Clib's work?

I'll have to ask Dave, he had some 1946 style German's sculpted some years ago, but I'm not sure how many or what they look like.

How far down the line until Clib gets on to the enemies/allies/mercenaries for the late Romans?

Ideally we need Goths (but I'm sure we'd settle for generic Germanic heavy cavalry, infantry spearmen and foot archers) and Huns (both heavier cavalry and lots of light horsemen) and it would be nice if we had Franks too.

Thanks,

Geoff

Those will be as soon as all of the LoA range is complete, so probably the start of next year at the earliest before we see any sculpts arrive here.

Good news on those though, the new horse dollies have been master moulded so a batch of those will be heading back to Clib this coming week for him to start work on the final sculpts.
