*This* is science fiction...

[Wirelizard]

Looks more 40K or post-apoc than "hard SF" to me, really.

I thought the whole point of this new game was that wasn't going to be yet another grimdark future?

[Maspalio]

made to fit the 40k universe...but it's a burlesque vision I mean

not my bag though

i'm definitively old school

To be frank, I didn't even know they were proposing a game as well. I thought they were just pushing minis

[Vermis]

RH have a new "hard science fiction" KickStarter in the works?

I knew they were doing 'Rambo with boobs for the more discer... desperate gamer', but I really hope that's not how Roginshirozz describes them.

Maybe it's more @ "hardbody science fiction"

[FramFramson]

I'm sure everyone's aware that RH have a new "hard science fiction" KickStarter in the works? In case not, here's a preview from what to expect for that:

Thanks for showing us this. I have no idea why, but I suddenly have the insane urge to buy a squad of those SF-Blood Vestals und to paint some SciFi Drow. I fear sex sells, and sexy Drow sell even better...

if anything, SF or true SF leans towards hard SF

although the sculpting does appeal, real SF is something totally different and rather rarely encountered in lead dolly land....
IMHO

'Futuristic Fantasy', just like 40k in my opinion. Not Science Fiction, which operates on a scientific basis.

Or potentially Space Opera...

But now I've seen it, thanks to that link...

Is that an armoured front or is she honestly bare from neck to navel?

This is the Necro Priestess Nephahrya, who’s powers over the dead allow her to wield an army of techno zombies in the service of her monarch the Iron Emperor.

Subtle.

crikey beasts of war is a god awful site 

[Major_Gilbear]

I just wish Raging Heroes would hurry up and actually decide on a line of models to release instead of all the previewing and teasing and dithering.  It's just getting tedious now.

Fixed that for you.

And, yes, it is.

I must admit that all this mainly seems 'Zzzzzzzzzzzz...' rather than sci-fi to me.
