    Wave 6 - Brainstorming Empty Wave 6 - Brainstorming

    Post  Nomad Sun Jun 21, 2020 10:10 pm

    Here is what is on the table to start considering . . . sorry if I missed anything after trolling our topics.

    Derek, I remember that you posted a list somewhere recently, but I can't find it. We can add that list to whatever is missing here.

    My thoughts - we each pick 6-7 figures/squads that we really want to focus on for the next wave. At least one from each needs to be a squad (common or unique). Think critically - what should we exert our efforts on?

    Kai:
    Arcane Automation (2-figure common squad)
    Wizard Squad
    Omega Wing Soldiers, squad (not posted)
    Viking Bowmen, squad (not posted)
    Lonestar Marshall (not posted)
    Pincer Drones
    New Monks (see Cool Figures Thread)
    Bulette
    Roland Hightower, Ullar Ranger
    Brothers Grimm
    Giant Scorpion
    Brother Blood and Tentacles
    Bearded Devil, Valkrill Demon
    Vurgoyles, Utgar or Valkrill unique squad or common hero
    Giant Spider/Phase Spider, Utgar Arachnid
    Rakhalar the War Troll, Utgar Unique
    Black Arrow Assassins, Valkill Unique Squad
    Horned Demons, Valkrill Uncommon Hero
    Sir Agronn, Einar Hero
    Cult of Asmodeus
    Lion Guards, Einar Unique Squad
    D&D Icons of Realms Starter Set, 6 figures
    Malcar, Utgar Troll Champion
    SoV Morgan, Sky Cavalier
    Ring Wraith from Combat Hex, Shades help
    Space Marine Soldiers, unique squad
    Silver New Dragon (see Cool Figures thread)
    Forest Drake
    Bronze medium dragons
    Cleric Squad
    New Minotaur Hero (see Cool Figures thread)
    Horned Skull Brute Hero (see Cool Figures thread)
    Demon Imps
    Solonavi Domineer, Mage Knight
    DEVLIN SKYHAWK, Reaper Bones mini from a couple of x-mas ago
    XAVIER LAWSON, Reaper Bones mini from a couple of x-mas ago
    DELANDRIA, Reaper Bones mini from a couple of x-mas ago
    ELLEN STONE, Reaper Bones mini from a couple of x-mas ago
    UNA Jam Unique Hero or squad
    War Troll from D&D War Drums
    Minions of Utgar - (Barbarians) remod/repaint
    Frostwolf
    Wizard - Temple of the West
    Mohican Shaman
    Hush conversion
    Unique Gnoll Archer mentioned in a Gnoll thread
    Conrad Snowdyn
    Giant Skeleton (see Cool Figures thread)

    Derek:
    1. ARTILLIEURS DU LOIRE and cannon
    2. Chain Golem
    3. BORVUND, Dwarf on Bear
    4. Cogs AT-43, Unique squad, Unique Heroes, Common Squads?
    5. Silver Dragon
    6. Wood Woads? common squad

    Djinni, super cool pathfinder figure!!!
    Huge Dragon, Large Bones figure to be painted
    Wasp

    Cowboy Lawman or Deputy or Sheriff
    Forge Unique Hero
    Aliens and Saucer


    Damon:
    1. Squire - Templar Calvary help (no figure selected or posted yet)
    2. Roman Archer help - a mod of MDG and a Roman Archer (not posted yet)
    3. Thurbard and Thurbard mounted, Einar Ascalon/Cathar hero
    4. Airborne Elite Repaints - Unique squads with a general/commander (Damon/Derek)
    5. Cathar/Ascalon Calvary - Einar unique squad/hero
    6. Tarn Viking Common Squad Repaints (Damon/Derek)

    Derek:
    Chain Golem
    Canoneers/Cannon, Einar common squad/destructible object
    Kamero/Ookami, Samurai/Wolf rebuild
    Djinni, super cool pathfinder figure!!!
    Cogs AT-43, Unique squad, Unique Heroes, Common Squads?
    Ursula, Dwarf on Bear
    Huge Dragon, Large Bones figure to be painted
    Wasp
    Cowboy Lawman or Deputy or Sheriff?
    Forge Unique Hero
    Aliens and Saucer


    Pretty sure C3V or Sov is going to do Lawman- Do we need to put any effort in here?
    Forge Hero or Aliens not interested in at this point.
    Chain Golem- Do we just want to adapt Scytales card or do we want to adjust a bit?

    In order I prefer
    Canoneers/Cannon- Common
    Chain Golem- Huge Unique
    Ursula- Unique
    Cogs- If Damon and Kai don't have figures could go Unique Squad, 3 Unique heroes instead of common squad.
    Silver Dragon- Not yet posted but I do believe you both have figure- Huge Unique listed under Kai cool figures.
    Wood Woads- Common squad.
    Wasp, Djinni, Kamero/Ookami.

    Chain Golem and Silver Dragon and Maybe Repaint of Bones Dragon could be large pack, which I like the idea of doing.
    I also have a wizard thought/figure for each general to go with Kyrlin which I would like to get to.

    OP has been updated with Derek's and Damon's thoughts about units to proceed with.

    Derek - what are the Wood Woads?

    I gave a squad (2 figure) to you with Motley Max and a few others when we met at Caitlins work. Haven't started thread yet. Kind of want to flush out designs here first- mainly Artillieurs.

    Yes - I have them. Thanks for the reminder. If you are thinking common squad, should I find more figures? How many do you have?

    Wave 6 - Brainstorming Empty Re: Wave 6 - Brainstorming

    Post  Nomad Fri Jul 08, 2022 12:34 am

    Almost 2 years since we started to consider our next wave. Here is my proposal (really what I would like to work on) based on the traction (or not so much) since then and potential ramblings. We have some in-person brainstorming to do regarding many of the figs. Feel free to share if there are figures you really want to see developed.

    Pack 1
    ARTILLIEURS DU LOIRE and cannon (common)
    GUARDIANS OF THE AWAKENED FOREST (common)

    Pack 2
    BORVUND, Dwarf on Bear
    ANFANG
    BULETTE
    SILVER DRAGON - too cool of a figure to ignore any longer

    Pack 3
    Chain Golem
    Quintus Flavius Magnus (Roman Archer Help)
    Kamero/Ookami, Samurai/Wolf rebuild
    Djinni, super cool pathfinder figure!

    Pack 4
    Squires of Weston (Unique Squad - Templar Calvary Help. Derek found the figs - I've been contemplating)
    Tarn Viking Bowmen (Unique Squad - Kai provided more than enough figures, more to come)

    How about we put Anfang, Chain Golem, Silver Dragon, maybe Djinni in big pack and fill in wave accordingly?
