I have uploaded a painting guide on Youtube for my Zandris IV starships. They are the same methods I use on my 6mm Sci-fi figures, so I thought I would share...
For those who are play Aeronautica Imperialis. There is a Tournament coming up in New Jersey at Jersey Shore Hobbies in Monmouth County sometime in July...
Gents: The Command Horizon range from Baccus is available again in the US from Scale Creep Miniatures (that's me!). I picked up all of the inventory from the...
Hi all! I've recently started a blog that will focus on converting vehicles from various sources for use in RL games, as well as general 6mm Sci-Fi. Both stock...
It seems to me that although Renegade Legion FASA figures are very good, there are problems with them, as with other ranges, in that they seek to represent...
More commission work for todays Blog post. This time the turn of some of the DRM buildings. Photos are here - http://www.firezonestudios.com/blog/?p=872...
This is going to be another big fun event. This the monthly gaming event held at the Knight's of Columbus Hall in Anaheim. The Board game of the Month is going...
I've been very remiss in not advising the group of my ongoing project to paint up loads of Brigade's Iron Cow miniatures for the forthcoming Iron Cow PDF. Only...
I know its all just gaming, but still. I'd like someone to explain to me why mechs/walkers are so common in scifi gaming. I used to thought they were very cool...
Just because you have grown up doesn't stop Mechs from being cool. :) Arguing about the future realism of Mechs is the same as arguing about the likelyhood of...
The thing with mechs is that its a greater versatility for traversing terrain. Other assumptions are that it mounts heavier/more advanced armor than...
I've been collecting G/W Epic since '90 ... I think that Titans/Mechs are just plain Frakk'n silly !!! But I have over 30 G/W Titans of all types ... 8-D I...
This is such a great argument Germy. I myself being a mech fanatic love the vision as pure sci-fi fantasy. I think the Japanese have it right though, with the...
FritzE, Good point all. I have very little mech usage in my 6mm scifi. However, when I do, they are not any better than a tank. They do not have uber...
Hi, The reason people that I know play sci-fi games has nothing to do with realism. It is for the fun of it, or for the "what if" of it, or for the escapism of...
Norm, I understand your point but, I also understand someone saying that they just can't accept a certain genre of science fiction gaming. Mechs used to be a...
I agree Anthony, play how you want to play. We all have a certain level of how far we want to "suspend our beliefs" or concepts of realism ... for lack of...
I still play BattleTech on occasion. I like big, stompy robots. I think it brings an aura of chivalry to sci-fi wargaming. Instead of having a lot of...
So, we got a bunch of various rules for "6mm fire team" battles. Such as Epic (net5/Armageddon), Dirtside, Seeds of War, Iron Cow, Prophecy of War, BattleTech...
In my opinion - The Good: FWC has rules for enough stock Sci Fi weapons that you can field pretty much any of your favorite genres, be they miniatures from...
I realize that we are talking about a set of rules that cover near future combat and sci-fi material. But here is a thought that might help you put the 20mm vs...
While it will depend on taste I , and the group I game with, like FWC a lot. It's an excellent package with enough detail to give games some flavour. So while...
