Now THAT is the true holy grail. I really hope so, I'd buy several of those. ESPECIALLY because there's so many new bits that would look sweet all bashed together with those bodies.

Empire Militia are listed separately from state troops for base sizes, so the odds are good the militia box will return.

Anyone hear anything on whether the Militia Box is returning :icon_question:

Also, on page 6 of the 'Rumors and what's new to be expected for the Old World' thread, JoV posted some rumor quotes that seem to come from a German language forum (based on the time references), from a certain 'Mikhael', who states there will be new Militia (and Knights & Great Cannon).

New knights would be interesting.

Empire should have gotten new Knights back in 8th or something, or at least new barded warhorses. The Knights were 6th Ed. models but those horses were older!

Aww, a new militia kit will probably be bad. Oversized to that 32mm scale, little to no options.
I want the old militia kit back.
For Wissenland and the Countess!!!

*blows dust off ten year abandoned account*

I'm pretty certain the melitia box will be back. It was only fairly recently removed from sale. It's one of those kits that GW would be mad not to re-release.
If they do update it, it won't be 32mm. the new Brettonia models fit very nicely with their older models, and thankfully steer clear of the over-detailed AoS style, but take advantage of sculpting/technology improvements.

There are better kits for them to update. As others have said, knights!

Are we sure we're an Empire forum? With all the old users coming back its starting to make me think we're a bunch of Tomb Kings! Risen from the Tombs of the internet once again!

I agree with the above as well. The Militia kit was beloved and still works. If they didn't update Bret Peasants I don't really see them updating the Militia.

New knights would be awesome. I'm curious if they will. The Brets are a major knight faction and didn't get updated sculpts, just a new unit sculpt. I'm curious if that'll be the plan for a lot of people. TK DID get some updated sculpts, so it is possible!

Militia kit is the pinnacle of GW kits and I will not be taking any further questions at this time.

A Tomb Kings website? Don't forget the Bretonnians!

Wait, wait, wait ... this is an Empire site, and a thread on the Militia box. :icon_wink: :icon_lol:
