1/12/2024 0 Comments The forbidden game julian![]() Well done to Clara, Dustin, Julian, Levi, Pawel and Ryan for their top notch converting and painting skills and sheer imagination on display here. Seeing as we missed him off, I feel like we should show everyone’s work again (some of you may have missed this previously).įrom upgunned artillery platforms, to mobile food stands and even a Super Mutant cavalry figure… This batch of bonkers bovines really show off the creativity and imagination of you Wastelanders so I take my hat off to the excellent work. Speaking of Julian, it seems he was also part of the Brahmin challenge from last month. Let’s take a look at the community and see what folks have been up to since I last checked in. There are some other changes coming to Wasteland Warfare in the future, but I’ll save those for when we are a little closer to the release of Nuka World (we haven’t even got to Capital yet!) Community Roundup We are continuing with the major restock project, hoping to build up a reserve of the kits that have been missing from store shelves for a while now. Grab some small rocks and gravel, some basing medium or sand and have fun creating your own bespoke bases. These sets provide a great jumping off point for basing and hopefully stimulate ideas among you all. From the fauna of the wasteland to the mean streets of the desolate cities of your choice and even skulls, because nothing says post apocalypse like using human remains for decoration. However, we know many enjoy the themes the bases bring to your miniatures and I’ve certainly enjoyed briefing all the little vignettes and easter eggs I’ve scattered into the range over the years… so what happens to you all?įirstly, this month’s STL releases provide a range of options to create your own scenic bases and themes for your miniatures. This will no longer be an issue as you can theme and customise your bases to suit the environments your forces battle over and ensure everyone is presentable (at least until the bullets start flying). With plastic bases there isn’t the same injection point needed, so that’s one less issue to worry about.įor those of you who like to present a unified front, sometimes the theming of the bases was a little disparate between various sets in a faction. I know many of you are frustrated by the mould injection tab (essential to allow liquid resin to flow into the mould) as removing these cleanly and without distorting the base edge can be challenging to put it mildly. ![]() Now, there are some upsides to this (beyond prices not spiking even higher and where possible hopefully coming down on comparable products). These kits will all ship with blank plastic bases (first seen in The Elder Scrolls plastic core sets) and our 30, 40 and 50mm based resin models will also have plastic bases from wave 10 onwards (Nuka World bases are still sculpted outside of the plastic sets). To help stabilise costs and keep that RRP as sensible as possible, I took the decision to remove scenic bases from most boxes.Īs we have revealed, Wave 8 includes our first hard plastic kit with the T45 Power Armor and Wave 9 will have four more kits (the three Nuka World gang core sets and an as yet unrevealed Power Armor set that is very enjoyable to work with). Covid was a pretty miserable time for all of us, but on the manufacturing front it saw rapid price rises in all our raw materials (and let’s not even get into shipping containers and boat space).Įach base adds another 40-60% raw material cost to each miniature in a box and these costs were starting to get to the point where the RRP of our product would rise higher than I was happy with and likely many of you would want to stomach. Basically, this comes down to one simple reason. So, why are resin bases (mostly) going away. I will outline the thinking behind it in this blog as well as providing details of how we are hoping to serve all interests going forward. It’s usually best to rip off the plaster (or band aid to our American players), so as has been hinted at for those closely watching my online presence, wave 9 will be the end of miniatures shipping with custom sculpted resin bases.Īs with all change, there are reasons that this is happening, but there will be people upset and/or frustrated by this news. February has arrived and the STL release this month is part of a wider topic that I’ve been wanting to discuss for some time as it will impact the Fallout Wasteland Warfare line going forward.
