I recently picked up the metal version of this mini for my 5 member team that I'm putting together for Majestic 13. The other four members of the team come from Wargames Atlantic Ooh Rah box set and yes, the miniature is slightly smaller, but the great thing about human beings is we all come in different shapes and sizes so the miniature will fit in nicely. I'm thinking of using Agent Scully as inspiration for my paint job but we'll see. A really good review.

I don't mind it actually, very low model count. Opportunities for converting and kit-bashing and crafting terrain are there as well. Games aren't that complex to play either.

The build turned out great! I've just started doing up some trash terrain for 5 Parsecs myself and this is certainly some good inspiration. Although, I may keep my terrain a tad smaller. Those blue drink bottle caps could be 'Docking Modulator Nodes' - sounds technical!

Good old KZfaq....even though I am subscribed and such this video slipped by without notice. I only found it by back tracking to your channel. The paint scheme is great, very pirate-like! I've never played Ghost Archipelago but the miniatures sure look good. They'd make great Bards for D&D with a little bit of kit-bashing. Glad I found this video, as that was a fairly comprehensive review.

Thanks for the kind comment. Yeah do'nt get me started on the technical short comings of the youtube platform, but hey its what we got! Ghost Archipelago was frorstgrave 1.5 and you can see that immediately if you ever read the rules. It was the bridge between the original and 2nd edition. I do love these old school style metal miniatures they just feel more satisfying in the hand. Thanks again and take care

@nicofolkersma2535 Ай бұрын

Great models and nice paintjob. As an arachnafoob muself, I think it's a great idea to use these as stand-in for the 8 legged freaks. And great that you think of someone elses discomfort, not a lot of people do. The bases are great, but I think I'll use slightly bigger ones, 50 or 60mm, flatten the pointy end and glue them on, possibly as mounts for the WA goblins. Think they'll fit ?

@welshminiatureboardgamer356 Ай бұрын

Thanks yeah I try and keep the table non threatening lol! Would hate to trigger someone's phobia over a game that is supposed to be fun. Yeah larger bases would suit them better, but you work with what you got. The goblin riders may have to be remodeled abit to fit over the larger backs of the harvesters. They would look really cool though if you do widen the legs and alittle green stuff. Anyway thanks for the comment and good luck with the project.

Thanks for the question. It depends on what you have for reference. They are not as bendy as old reaper or toy soldiers, which we will give a score of one out of ten. Hard plastic like frostgrave minis are like 9/10. These are like 4/10, weapons are alittle bendy but actual figures are not.

Having worked in plastic molding for many years you are correct that is the mold shifting. But a lot of people don't understand that companies tend to produce thousands of parts at a time and this usually starts later in production or from the mold not being cleaned properly when finished.
