I wish I had a mini for every half finished/realized project I've started.


the problem is that! we have loads of minis for each unfinished project, and those are usually only painted in white!   :lol:

Careful - that would imply having more unfinished projects, and therefore still more miniatures, and then STILL more unfinished projects, and so even more miniatures, and yet MORE unfi- well, a sort of open loop thing. In no time at all the universe will be filled with miniatures/unfinished projects!

Er - is that bad?  :?:

Qabalists, heavily armed from the Warsaw ghettos. They are supported by the unstoppable Golem and vengeful spirits from the Ark of the Covenant.



I've added the rules for the Haunted Tank and Donner and Blitzen too.
More coming...

They are fantastic, you have done a great job with these, really like the Arc and the spirits (Seraphim perhaps?) and the golem is Monolith? I picked up the Eureka ones but they are only man sized.

Again Paul...Fantastic :lol:

PS These fit very well with the Killer B Geezers too  :mrgreen: I think they are by the same sculptor

The Golem is Monolith, the Ark is from Castaway Arts.
Jews from Amazon and have the feel of a Martin Baker figure (but they'll do  :lol:  )

Angelic beings from Rafm a long time ago. (Seraphim have six wings by-the-way)

Awesome group, Paul. Can't wait to see the Golem slug it out with Donner und Blitzen.

I would put the reduced number of wings down to cutbacks :wink:

Quote from: "PeteMurray"
The squad is from F Troop, 183rd Armored Infantry. Each member of the squad wears a power armor suit, slightly modified according to specialty. Captain Hollis' is a stock command suit with a couple of extra radios. He's named it "Susie's Suit" after his girl back home. Sgt. Brock's is a Mark I suit, officially obsolete, that he refuses to turn in. Though its appearance is patchwork, it is one of the best-maintained suits on the front. Pvt Boone is the squad marksman. His suit has a low ROF cannon in place of the machinegun. He's called his suit "Yeller" after his dog at home. Pvt Goldman has a stock infantry suit, and promises to get around to naming it someday. What he hasn't told anyone is that he's already named it "Golem," and that he's written the golem's chem on the inside of the helmet piece. Pvt Murray also has a stock suit, but one decorated with lucky horseshoes (some real, some painted), four-leaf clovers, and rabbit's feet. Furthermore, no one is allowed to touch the suit's left arm. It's just one of those superstitions of his.

I obviously recognice the Not-Tintin and Snowy figures from Copplestone. But the others... Is the Captain one of the Brigade Merchant sailors? I thought I knew them all. The Thompsons (with Thompsons, how clever!), and the Professor, are they converted Copplestones?

Oh, and a great build up of forces there, matakishi.
