We've got some more Sci-Fi releases for you next with ranges 5 and 6 now up on the website.  The Griffon are an authoritarian state with some definite M113 vibes about their vehicles.  The Free States are a smaller mercenary based range with some really nice gun platforms for their artillery.

These packs are all structured to provide a unit/base worth of figures, aside from the infantry that come in larger packs.  The vehicles include driver/commander torsos too, to add a bit of extra detail. 

All of these new figures are sculpted by Phil Lewis, along with vehicles/support weapons by Dennis Smith.

Some more interesting concepts, cool stuff!

The walker artillery platforms are an interesting concept - should the bottom part of the legs be bent out at 90º to give feet? It does look like they are ballerinas en pointe  :)

You could certainly give it try if you prefer that look?  The metal might not like that kind of angle though and could break rather than bend.  I've just assembled them as they came from the designer, so the only tricky bit was getting them all to stay in the right place/angle while the glue set!

I've ordered, but have combined 5 & 6 into one force.  :-[

They will have tanks with small wheels and boxy APC with turrets, supported by clerical artillery. I feel these will have a green/black scheme, and will probably win everything.


This green force will be the fourth (and a mighty fine palate cleanser they've been) and I've tried to get a mix on top of a infantry platoon in APCs: Black - MBT and indirect weapons, blue - no MBTs but lots of drones, green - conventional for today, brown mix of everything.   

Great fun to be had by all. :)


Now, about those aliens we've been promised ... ?
