Vague But Menacing Government Agency

 Another figure from the Wargames Atlantic Agents set.

This is an out of the box figure, reloading his now empty automatic pistol.

Some minor filling is required to smooth in the arm joints.

I have placed the figure in the following two photographs on a second base as the Empress figure has an integral base.

Here you can see the pistol with its slide back, showing it is empty.

Fireforge Warrior Monks

 Fireforge have just released a box set of Warrior Monks.

There are two sprue frame types (A and B) and there are three each of them

There are naginatas, muskets (teppo) and bows (Yumi) for all.

Victrix Greek Hoplites.

 I ordered a pack of Victrix Greek Hoplites in the North Star Boxing Day sale, probably for the forthcoming Warriors of Athena skirmish game.

I will need to read up on the various armour types and helmets used by the Greek city states.

Victrix have dispensed with boxes, the eight identical sprues come in a ziplock bag with an instruction sheet (a nice touch)

First figure assembled.

Wargames Atlantic: Survivors 2

Wargames Atlantic Civilians and Survivors: Women, the companion set to the Male set.

These can be assembled with or without weapons and are compatible with the female agents in the Agents set.

 

Wargames Atlantic Agents

 The recently released Wargames Atlantic Agents set.

There are four identical sprues in the box.

Each sprue has three men in suits, one woman in a suit, one man in tactical gear and one woman in tactical gear. The female arms are clearly numbered.

There are no female arms with assault rifles, there are two MP5, one MP5K, one shotgun, one FN P90 and two pistols.

As I wanted some heavier firepower than the MP5, I used the assault rifle arms from the Wargames Atlantic female survivors set on the first figure.

Either those trousers are excessively starched of there is a mould line I need to remove.

Size comparison with Empress US figure (painted as a fictional Ayeland marine).

As a comparison, this is misleading. The Empress figure is standing upright and the agent is striding forward.

Quar Fidwog Specialists

 Wargames Atlantic have recently released a Specialists set for the Fraedarl Overseas Department (FOD).

The box contains two sprues.

Each sprue builds three Specialist FOD Rhyflers and three Miners

The Rhyflers can be Lancers, anti-tractor specialists that use thrown explosive lances to disable enemy tractors. In the close confines of the Karst country, this tactic works.

The Rhyflers can also be Marksquar, long range precision shots to eliminate officers and machine guns.

The miners, armed with shotgun and pickaxe are demolition, excavation and close combat specialists.

Miner with shotgun. I need to add his trusty pickaxe.

Of course the fearsome reputation of the miners was slightly soiled after one party dug their way under a Crusader camp and came up under a latrine.

Gamers Grass Gnarled Branches

Gamers Grass have added a new range of 3D printed items to add to your bases. These are an assortment of Gnarled Branches, some of which have additional features.

Some have additional features, this crow and a cow skull. Whether they are in all sets, I do not know.

This will also be useful for the other two Treants from Crooked Dice, adding the branches will differentiate them from the original one, which used a branch from the Crooked Dice Dead Forest set.
