@Pappa Midnight

It seems august is the planned release date.
Played the french version a while ago and there are some good ideas in it.
But I simply love the background and the flavour of it.

From crispness of the detail, it looks like resin. But it's amazing what is possible with polystyrene nowadays. So it might as well be plastic. Hmm, no real answer here. But I am rather interested as well.

The background is pre WWII and envisions a situation, I think, where WWI has continued past its normal time.

So no Nazis unless you want to paint them differently.

I'd really appreciate it if anyone who ordered these figs could chime in on the matter once the goodies are received.

I bought the French version, and though the (pre)painted plastic figs are OK the plastic is a bit too soft for my taste, and small extending bits (gun muzzles, knifes,...) might end up slightly warped.

So, I really hope it's resin :)
