I was very interested in seeing how the bases work. They look good. The fact they are plastic means they are very less likely to warp.
Got the new KOW rules over Christmas, really want to start a Dwarf force so holding out as the range seems very limited for the moment
@hazyboy75 if you watch the livestream, they mention that they will be redoing the plastic kits for the Dwarves in the future. If you really want to get into KOW, I would recommend one of the newer ranges (unless you like Mantic’s current Dwarf range). If you want to proxy the Dwarves in your army with other ranges, make sure the weapon options exist within the current plastic kits.
@nightrunner Oh cool! Was going to watch that later tonight. Will have to have a think about alternatives…
You’re welcome.
