@Smokestack-I'm pretty sure that's a Mantic one; the females might be smaller than the males but it's hard to see in regiment photos.

I like how the WGA ones scale with my Oldhammer halflings. They're not the same size, but the difference is small enough to write it off as population diversity.

And those wear shoes. Shoes! Don't they realize the best part of painting halflings is painting little tufts of foot hair?

...

Or... is that not as universal as I thought it might be?

Tolkien based lore has 3 different groups of Halflings with one being kown for wearing shoes and they are also all of different size
like the WGA and Mantic size difference would be as in one of the older artworks for Harfoots and Fallohides

Those all look good together. My general rule is if the heads and weapons look around the same size then I am ok with some minor height differences.

I am ok with shoes... I figure some of the halflings grew up in the city. But I dont mind halfling with "70's" hairy feet either.

Hello everyone

https://www.myminifactory.com/tribes/WargamesAtlantic/posts/Halfling_Cavalry_and_Khmer_Infantry_released-36186





Halfling cavalry and Khmer Imperial infantry have been released.

Available on the My Mini Factory tribes, wargamesatlantic.com, and only-games (pending file review, I believe.)

What do you think? Do any of these fit into your hobby plans? What else are you looking forward to in the March release?

Thanks. I havent heard good things about Only Games service. But also ordering through them you get one of each part. So Only one of the helmets. I could... buy the STL and then get Impact to custom print... meh... maybe.

Its on their Pax Votatum thing... so has the possibility of becoming plastic... Its at around 900 votes last time i checked. Honestly I would love another kickstarter like the Damned one... for a full halfling army... Cavalry, Artillery, Hand gunners, great swords, Command... and a seperate heroes box for making wizards and what not... A big warwagon would be cool too.

Edit: A big Giant to go with them...

Conquistador Cavalry Update!
As soon as the Conquistador Cavalry set met it's $6000 goal in Vox Populi we started to do the final refinements, part additions, and organization of the files to get it ready for a final layout.

Many of you called to add pistol arms and more full helms to the set. Rob has given some options for both matchlock and wheel-lock pistols here. [ ]

Any parts that don't make it into the final plastic set will be available as digital add-ons once the set is released.[ ]


really please it looks like at least some handguns should make it onto the sprue

Nice. Would be even nicer if they started putting a left handed pistol in their kits for gonzo sergeants and RPG characters.

Thats not technically true. The only-games listing comes with mutliple of the helmeted head, for example. Generally though, you are correct.

There are handguns in the conquistador infantry set, and the joinery is such that you should be able to mix and match / convert.

Do you have an actual parts list as to what the set comes with? The only thing the Only-games listing says is

Printed kit comes with enough parts for 3 halfling Cavalry.


If it has 3 helmets... I would buy the set. The only thing that indicates what parts are included is the picture... which only shows one Helmet.

Today we are taking a quick look at the final layout of The Damned Command frame.
We've had to make some really tough decisions over the parts that made it onto this sprue. There has been a lot of back and forth between the design team and the engineering team to ensure we put together the most comprehensive and versatile command sprue possible!

We've managed to include three human sized male bodies, a brute sized body and a female body plus all of the accessories needed to kit those models out!

Let us know your thoughts below!

I can also confirm that all parts that don't make it onto any of the final sprues will be made available for free too all backers as STL's!

We've released another new hard plastic set. This time it's the third set in our Imperial Conquests range: Afghan Cavalry.

https://wargamesatlantic.com/products/afghan-cavalry

The new horsies (Light Horses) are quite nice if we do say so ourselves!
