A children with the Hartman Leutenant's face.... BRRR.


aaanyway. Another VERY INTERESTING possibility with basically 3 figures identical is to have the 3 stances: melee, primary, secondary: a basic 3-pose for left for dead style games!

That's a great idea. Will work well for my zombie games where the survivors will find different weapons along the way. Would be frivolous in metal and costly but for the price of these plastics it's easily possible.

something even better if you have only 3-4 survivors to mod: MAGNETS. A little long, but saves you from painting 3 times the same figure, and also gives you MUCH MORE variants ^^

Am I mistaken or is there no M1 Carbine on that sprue? I'm not a WF hater and plan to buy the survivor set but seriously - did they not read Max Brooks before development?

What about megaminis survivors and modern civilians ?

I'd like to order some figures in their shop before closing (especially the metal magic ones, so great classic fantasy minis), but in the mean time, why not ordering some figures for other games (ATZ and SuperSystem).

But some of the modern civilian figures on their website are described at 25mm, other 28mm...

I know that metal magic adventures are described as 25mm, but works pretty well with true 28mm minis. Is it the same with mega minis modern civilians ?

I received the Studio miniatures plastic zombies sets. They seems to be pretty accurate on 28mm scale. Will they work with megamini civilians ?


thank you for the help.

With the survivor set you could mix it with some of the bodies from the studio miniatures zeds to give you more variety.

You're talking about wargames factory survivors ? They are not available for now. My question is about megaminis civilians  ;)


thanks

yes mixing the WGF Survivors with the plastic studio zombie bits you could make some more survivors. Personally I don't like the megamini's stuff some of the old alphaforge miniatures they have mixed in across the range are good though.
