Yarbicus Posted April 29, 2022 Report Share Posted April 29, 2022 I want to start on a new army but want something non-GW. The problem is that full 4500 army and not buy 75 individual figs. Kings of War has some attractive and affordable army boxes. I love the Raging Heroes stuff but pricey and a little large at 32-35mm scale. What else should I be looking at? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Last Guardsmen Posted April 29, 2022 Report Share Posted April 29, 2022 How do you feel about 3D printing? If you're even remotely handy with 3D modeling you can go far with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shoot, I should have gotten a better look at the goblins, dont think I have ever seen them before. I thought their dwarves looked good until I got them, then I realized they were not that great. The dwarf rifles are alright (the rifles look much more modern then the big choky blunderbuss types of GW). The "Hammerers" equivalent look awesome, but admittedly I have never seen them in person. Did you have an army in mind, or were you rather going to look for a model line that speaks to you and just play that army? If you have any interest in Equitaine, Fireforge is what most of mine are, they are very similar to Perry miniatures or warlord games. You get quite a few weapon choices in the boxes, but the downside is that they re-use most of the main body molds (for both humans and horses). So the differences typically will be in the shield, head, and weapon, between one box and another. Here is a link to a very incomplete blog of how I put together all that stuff: 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am mostly looking for sculpts that inspire me. I have been looking at teh Fireforge models. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
