Somebody call me an ambulance. 

My nerdgasm has given me a heart attack.

Cheers Leon, at this rate i'll never get my FPW French finished...

OK....
You're an ambulance Luddite.
(Oscar Wilde eat your heart out !)

Cheers - Phil.

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

What about just using the current range against the new range?

This is interesting as I've loads of vehicles from the Mechwarrior clicky-base game that are all approx 10mm sitting around. Some of them are a bit clunky but I thought they would fit quite nicely in the style of the Firefly universe.

Yeah i think thats probably the way to go.  Either that or use historical ranges.

You mention Firefly for example.  One of the things i'm considering doing with these is Firefly, probably using these as Alliance 'purplebellies' and the ACW range as separatist 'Browncoats'.

Only problem will be sorting out mules, 'rollers', and other vehicles...DRM do some nice bulky flyers...they're 6mm but i've got a few and they'll definately match 10mm scale.

The marines are superb!! Wonderfull ! I hope the new SF range will be ready for Salute.

Some/lots of support staff would be good.

Medics,techies troops with comms kit, dropship crew, officers etc 

I' m totaly agree with Mr republic of tolworth. Also a new alien race will be usefull.

Maybe 'slims' from Starship Troopers? Not strong but fairly technically adept.

Me wanth, me liketh...my precioussssssssssss
Awesome stuff and a definate buy.

Many thanks again for the compliments guys......Really pleased you like 'em !

Cheers - Phil.

They're lovely Phil & no doubt about it. 

Something that might work for a bit more variety would be to do what Pig Iron have done with their (lovely) 28mm stuff - do some head variants...that way you get two (or more) factions reasonably easily: if you did some closed-face helmets / gas mask variants for these, that'd do...just a thought 

Of course, that'd depend on Pendraken bankrolling this 

The Skinnies would be cool for this new alien race. It should also be a good starting point for the Green Martians for Barsoom      

I'm painting up a bunch of Pendraken's lovely Giant Worms who I reckon would make excellent opponents for these chaps. Actualy there are a number of the Fantasy/Dungeon figures who would slot into a scifi environment with no bother. DN11 which is billed as a Floating squid but looks like a Floating Brain is an obvious candidate but I also like DN4 and DN42. DN42 would have particular virtues in Jungl/Swamp settings and DN4 would look good in a desert setting. If nothing else they could slot in as Indigenous Scout troops.

I reckon you're right y'know...

 

Awesome!

Excellent stuff! Really like these minis.

The 'Battle armour' troops are hard to resist. Shame they are not 15mm!

Can I just advise that I think gamers would expect "battle armour" troops to be in full carapace. These are heavy or armoured infantry - I'd be happy to have these as Drop Troops but from the photos definitely wouldn't call them "Battle armour".

Cheers

Just caught this thread. Excellent, I can see a purchase in the near future... Perhaps at Salute?

Yep, I'm estimating March or April on these hopefully.

I'll be after some of these for sure... what about something on the lines of the 'Dune' series of novels? Giant, GIANT sandworms and riders, flyers etc., etc. Probably give the movie a miss for reference but the series was pretty reasonable in my opinion.

Any guys in caps?

Nothing planned at the moment.
