Following hard on the heels of the
Persians, our second set in the Legacy of the Greeks range will also be
our first set of Alternate History - Amazons!
Here is a work-in-progress render - you can see the progress in our forums as we go.

@AppleTree
Nimm Armies of Arcana ;)
@Orks
Mußte auch gleich an die alte Angus McBride-Illu denken. War das \"Festung im Düsterwald\"? Wollte immer so ne Orks haben... :thumbup:

Zu dicke Schilde...Der Schild sieht in der Tat eher wie ne Tür aus...
First Look - Persian Sprue!sieht nicht schlecht aus !!!
14-Sep-2010
Here\'s a first look at the sprue for the upcoming Persians set so you
can check out the detail and options. This is one of the last sets
(including War of Spanish Succession and Orcs) that will be on
larger-format sprues as we move to our new Mini-Sprue System. So expect
lots of little add-ons for Persians over time!(http://www.wargamesfactory.com/Images/WF41-PersiansSprue.jpg)This is the very first set in our brand new range: Legacy of the Greeks (http://wargamesfactory.lefora.com/forum/category/ranges-legacy-of-the-greeks/)! Four other sets in development RIGHT NOW for 2010 release!
We haven\'t determined the final set make up on this one - but we\'ll know
shortly and will make an announcement. You will get AT LEAST 36 figures
for $19.95!
Thanks again everyone!
Tony and the Wargames Factory Team
Die Mädels haben mir zu dicke Oberschenkel,

(warum ist ein Bogen im Köcher wenn der Schütze doch bereits diesen in der Hand hält?!)Weil es auch eine freie Hand für die Bewaffnung mit Speer/Axt/Kopis + Schild gibt und der Bogen dann zwangsläufig im Köcher verstaut wird. ;)
Und mit welchen Pfeilen schießt dann der Schütze mit dem Bogen in der Hand ;)Zitat von: \'Regulator\',index.php?page=Thread&postID=68806#post68806(warum ist ein Bogen im Köcher wenn der Schütze doch bereits diesen in der Hand hält?!)Weil es auch eine freie Hand für die Bewaffnung mit Speer/Axt/Kopis + Schild gibt und der Bogen dann zwangsläufig im Köcher verstaut wird. ;)

Nein wie porno... Das ist ja wohl mal nur noch geil... Da kann man ja nochmal richtig mit seinen alten MERS Heften posen...die orks sind wirklich die ersten WGF figuren die mir auf anhieb zusagen .. bis auf einen teil der waffen was nicht so wild ist
Mal abwarten wie die fertigen Minis dann wirklich aussehen werden... bisher waren die Ideen von WF durchaus gut, aber die Ergebnisse doch eher bescheiden...

There was a bit of an issue this morning when the comments section for the latest Wargames Factory post was used to post comments about the legal status of the current plastic Greek Hoplite figures. The first two comments were posted by Tony Reidy and Howard Whitehouse both ex-employees of Wargames Factory. I’ve reposted them here.ZitatTony Reidy:
FYI – Wargames Factory never paid Tim Barry for the right to sell these. Buying these is like buying a recast figure. They quote-unquote negotiated with Tim until they got the Freeform device in their lawyer’s hands – and then they stopped talking to him. He owns the copyrights on this sculpture and he’s being screwed over. Hopefully no retailer or distributor will be carrying these.
Thanks, TonyZitatHoward Whitehouse:
I’ll back Tony up on this one. Tim sent a series of files to China during the last months of 2010 (Amazons, Persians, Greeks, skeletons) and was promptly fired without notice – as I was, it should be said.
Tim hasn’t been paid a penny for his work and – since it seems that the controlling partner of WGF has quietly dissolved its US corporation and formed one in Hong Kong without informing several of the other owners in the company – it seems unlikely WGF ever intends to. It’s hard to get money from a company an ocean away if the debtor won’t play honest.
I know Tim well. He’s a family man with two small kids and a wife with health issues. Since he isn’t being paid for his efforts, I urge all potential customers simply to keep their hands in their pockets, or buy somewhere else. It’s an issue of integrity.
I have no reason to disbelieve either of them but the comments section of this site, or any other, is not the proper place to be making these sorts of allegations and I most certainly don’t want the comments section to devolve into a place where the discussion isn’t driven by and about the products in question.
Now, it can be said that these comments are related to the product but they are not directly related to the announcement. I am attempting to try to keep the site an open place for people to post and read news and situations like this are a difficult path to tread. Without a legal decision to back up anyone’s case there is nothing that will settle this sort of discussion and they can quickly lead to acrimonious and divisive debate. The type of debate that I am trying to avoid.
So what do people think is a solution for this sort of issue? Should posts by Wargames Factory have comments disabled as we had to for Confrontation topics for some time?
Die einzig wirklich schlechten Figuren sind die Römer, da muss man schon ein Auge ganz fest zudrücken.Ich habe hier gerade zwei Gussrahmen liegen, einmal die Shocktrooper von Wargames Factory und einmal die Imperial von Target Games. Wenn ich mir die Modelle anschaue, dann sind bei WGF die höhere Auswahl an Bitz und der bessere Kunststoff ein klarer Pluspunkt, von der Detailschärfe liegen sie jedoch noch etwas hinter TG. Und wenn man bedenkt, dass TG die Minis in den 90ern herausgebracht hat, dann finde ich das ein Armutszeugnis für die Shocktrooper. Und nein, ich habe absichtlich nicht den Branchenprimus herangezogen, da GW einfach ganz andere Mittel als WGF hat.
...das idiotische WF gebashe der Hater Fraktion...Ganz schön überdreht , du Fanboy... :thumbsup:
