ichwillauch, I agree. They are great looking figures, and will go well with the Foundry Warlord I already have.

I've painted two models: Barca and one of the girls. Castings are clean and well casted. Proportions looks right. Poses are very dinamic. If I have a criticism is that the heads of the girls are a bit too small for the necks of the mannequins, although once they are painted you won't notice it. Of course, those with some sculpting talent -alas not one of my skills!- can re-sculpt the necks to more realistic proportions.

Overall the figures are a solid 8. The civilians, by the way, are worth every cent.

My stuff arrived too!  I have my bases made up, everything has been prepped and my first five models are primed and ready for paint.  I hope to have them posted up soon.

I have to say that the temptation to buy intp this game has been growing, But the cost of two gangs has been putting me off.

So the new blood on the aventine starter set has really really tempted me. when i saw it I assumed it'd be around £70, but at £35 it seems pretty reasonable for the rulebook, figures and all the trimmings, plus the bloody huge terrain piece.
never trust a horse, they make a commitment to shoes that no animal should make.

I’ve been buying figures and buildings for this gradually. I’ve got enough now for some small games, but it’ll probably be a few months before I get everything assembled and painted to the level that I would like. I think there’s an opportunity with this to do some really nice, atmospheric terrain with a lot of detail, so that is my focus.

I'm not wildly interested in the game, but that starter kit is almost worth it for the terrain alone.

I'd completely skipped GoR because it seemed quite pricey but the Starter set seems underpriced if anything, so thought I'd give it a go! Just placed an order. If I like it the terrain and extra stuff will probably end up costing me a bit after all. They always get you in the end!
