I'm a collector. I want to collect the entire range. I don't want to pay three times more for a rulebook because it doesn't have art on the cover. Bad marketing deserves to be criticized. Thinking otherwise is what's weird, at least to me.

To be honest you just sound impatient. You'll be able to buy all the things eventually.

Well it's not my business to run badly. Someone can pass my apologies on to Mr Stallard.

I actually prefer the gaming pieces from the board game to the miniatures range. Why you ask? I like the proportions. They're good old fashioned comicbook proportions, with long legs and small heads, whereas the miniatures are more familiar … well, miniature proportions with slightly larger heads and extremities.

No your literally impatient. No wargaming range (as in one that has an accompanying ruleset) is released in its entirety in a single drop. Thats counterproductive and impossible frankly.

What are you even on about?

The "entirety" of the range in question is actually already on pre-order. That's literally what we have been talking about. The issue is, the only way to pre-order everything is to also pre-order the overpriced version of the rulebook. This is just bad business.

Now, feel free to continue your personal attacks on me as a separate matter if that's what makes you happy.

You want everything. More things will be released after this initial wave thus making your shrieking irrelevant. Be patient.

One more time. The “everything” in question is “everything in the initial release.”

Understand now?

Yes. That still doesn't change the fact that your entire argument literally boils down to "Theres the special thing in the special deal that I don't want so its a bad deal" ignoring that you can literally NOT BUY IT NOW and buy the stuff anyway. You just have to WAIT. I mean if this was the only run sure, your point would be valid. As is you should just put your wallet down, paint some minis and come back when ecerything in particular you want is released instead of kicking off.

So anyway (before the thread ends up being locked) .... I’m really looking forward to the new releases, is anyone else?

 lol

From the Warlord instagram account it sounds like they are considering a few terrain items.... Perp holding posts would be useful.

The initial wave of releases suggests (to me at least) that they will fill out some of the villains ...Dark Judges etc, plus Specialist Judges (otherwise why call a pack “street” judges?) and hopefully some more gangers and Citi-def.

I'm too used to Judge Dredd stuff being poorly managed and the various incarnations disappearing after a few months. It's tricky trying to translate good comic into good game I guess and not everyone gets it right.

It would be nice to get some of the characters no one has done. Alien catcher general, Filmore Faro and his Brotherhood of Trash, the Neon Knights, you could go on for ever, lol.

I agree completely.

From a commercial point of view, it makes perfect sense to start with “squad packs” like the street judges and block gangs. I guess you could also bundle up some of the individual characters into more Denizen/Villain packs as well, but Warlord have started with the “money in the bank” releases to contribute towards the cost of the license.

I am really hoping they offer some of the vehicles we have seen in some of the photos.

I need robots frankly, 2000AD has some really wacky designs and they haven't really translated that many to miniature.

In one of the many articles in the current WI there is a panel mentioning the resin vehicles that are part of the range.
