Very nice! We must have us some games in 2013! I'll paint up some more Phagon to oppose some of your mercenaries or emperial troops :)

We must indeed! Maybe you could even go for an unholy alliance between your Muster/Retained and your Phagons for the new year? That way we could have ourselves a very nice and large brawl on some godforsaken rock at the edge of the galaxy! ;)

Love all the pj's, very nice. The flyer though, again lovely Pj but a little let down by all the pressure bubble flash you've left on the front of it, real shame, but sure it's not that noticable in game though.

What's next?

I totally agree that it was a bit of a let down that those bubble became so noticeable on the pictures, because as you say - they are hardly noticeable on the gaming table. Next up is a small squad of Mercenary Marines (ex-Capitol Free Marines by Mark Copplestone, repainted to fit in with my Mercenary force... who are in desperate need of a name!).

Apart from the Orca, I actually noticed that the force consists primarily of Copplestone figures, so I'm thinking that they should have a name to reflect this. Hmmm....

I just finished up the infantry for Stone's Starhawks






I'm hoping to keep a theme going wherein most of the miniatures are Copplestone miniatures only, albeit from various manufacturers. I need a complete list of what miniatures Copplestone sculpted for Warzone back in the heyday - I know he did these Free Marines but what else?

Off the top of my head, Copplestone did all of the first corporation releases for Warzone - Capitol Special Forces (Sea Lions & Free Marines, though mohawks vs bandanas were the only differences), Mishima Samurai, Imperial Blood Berets, Bauhaus Hussars, & Cybertonic Chasseurs.

As you might know, most of these were resculpted during 2nd ed. Warzone by sculptors other than Copplestone.

Many of the early TG95_ and TG98_ packs. Copplestone, Kevin Adams and one or two other sculptors did the original releases. the later packs are by Kevin White.List here based on the Prince August catalogue and not in any way canonical. :)  believe there are other packs based on Copplestone originals, converted by someone else and released. At least the sculpts look like it, like the bauhaus blitzers or martian banshees
Some figs are missing on the P. August site, and some were released that I didn't see before.

TG9802: Warzone Capitol Heavy Infantry Sergeant Figures
TG9803: Warzone Capitol Heavy Infantry HMG Specialist
TG9819: Warzone Capitol Free Marine Sergeant Figures
TG9820: Warzone Capitol Free Marine Hero Figures
TG9821: Warzone Capitol Free Marine HMG Specialist Figures
TG9826: Warzone Capitol Light Infantry Captain Figures
TG9828: Warzone Capitol Light Infantry Hero Figures
TG9830: Warzone Capitol Heavy Infantry Captain Figures
*****: Warzone Capitol Free Marine Hero figure (missing)
martian banshees and sunset strikers could be copplestones or conversions.

Cybertronic:

Cheers for the help both of you! I have some of the Capitols mentioned (Sea Lions, Special Forces, Troopers) - but with this list to go by it'll be much easier!

You mean apart from the fact that I'm writing them? ;D

I don't really know yet, I'm not exactly trying to push any boundaries or envelopes here - it's a simple game, easy to use mechanics and with stuff to do for the players throughtout the turn. So... Once done, I think I could tell you a bit more :)

Which was followed by yet another unnamed Mercenary faction:

Action Force! I may have to steal this idea!

The Warzone list I was going to do for myself for ages, I just needed the excuse. In the end I plan to get hold of all on the list.
