new? Perry stuff:

These would be a good supplement to the Republican guard, size wise and fashion:

Just saw a notice on these. Looks like between White Knights set and this one we are going to have some excellent choices for foot knights and great swords. Personally I don't intend to choose, I'll be taking both as soon as I can get my greedy hands on them.

Stronghold terrain sells this miniature/diorama, and they are also very friendly to deal with:

Spellcrow is another small but very friendly miniature provider:

This ycould be an interesting alternative for the buff wagon ( Empire of the Dead, 28mm Steampunk Horror game and miniatures ) :

I need the stronghold guy when I construct my Brother Vinni and Hasslefree Empire brothel.

Ursa Doom · « **Reply #2531 on:** December 05, 2014, 12:39:56 AM »

Could also put the Stronghold guy on the War Altar waggon.

Help me out guys: Is there a European supplier for CoolMiniorNot... err... minis?

The only one I know is Battlefield Berlin, and they don't have the mini I want.

warlord games have a whole range waiting to be released :

".........We’ve had lots of interest in the range already and like us, you’re eagerly awaiting the chance to get your hands on these glorious models. Fear not though – the range, including several new releases will be released early in 2015. You won’t be disappointed…"

I just wonder if the horses will be compatible visually/size wise with Empire.

Pirazzo returns!

I really wish the morian had not become so identified with Estilia. Certainly in the real world plenty of Germans and other northern Europeans used them. That mounted arqubusier needs to be the foundation of my new pistolier unit.

The recent warlord horses are a bit smallish.

Steam ogres! We can field them as.....anything.

New Kislev Winged Hussars on Griffins. Coming soon from Werewolf miniatures.

How could we miss this?:

I don't have much of an intention to build a dungeon, but these scenery bits are great and I would have pledged.

I didn't.

commandant · « **Reply #2542 on:** January 06, 2015, 08:41:11 PM »

I assume they'll have a shop where the bits can be bought

The Red Graf · « **Reply #2543 on:** January 07, 2015, 12:16:51 AM »

I had not heard of them before the Kickstarter, but they already have a store with some cool stuff.

FR1DAY · « **Reply #2544 on:** January 07, 2015, 02:08:32 PM »

That is how to run a kickstart project. Not like pro gloria. Want 5500 got 122000!

Darknight · « **Reply #2545 on:** January 07, 2015, 03:18:44 PM »

ProGloria's problem, I think, was that the Kickstart was pretty much just run as "pre-orders". And that's no way to do it - pre-orders are pre-orders, Kickstart needs to have more "oomph" to it.

Finlay · « **Reply #2546 on:** January 07, 2015, 03:25:27 PM »

Pro gloria’s problem was they asked for a stupid amount of money for a niche product of a niche army in a niche hobby, a product with most people playing that niche army in that niche hobby likely already had.

I can’t remember how much they asked for specifically, but wasn’t it something crazy amounting to like 1/8th of GWs operating profit last year?

Why was it even a kickstarter? Just produce them and sell them like normal models.

Kickstarter is weird.

GW would be bankrupt then

Pro gloria needed 30.000 euros for the campaign to succeed. That is for a plastic injection mold a reasonable amount of money, nothing extreme at all.

Darknight · « **Reply #2548 on:** January 07, 2015, 03:52:54 PM »

Yeah, I think you might be confusing them with someone else, Finlay.

30K wasn't too high. Their problem - so as I saw it - was a lack of promotion, and not getting enough of a saving on a year-out pre-order. 1euro a figure is a good price ... for something I can take home that day / get delivered in a week. Not for something I've got a wait a year for. Many of us were willing to do that, but not all of us.

i'm confusing them with that one which wanted to do video games and models combined.

30k for halberdiers is still too high, hence why they failed.
