Grab Heroic 3D Printable Sci-Fi Romans With New Legio Prima Victrix Kickstarter!
September 12, 2023 by brennon
You can now grab yourself a new set of 32mm 3D Printable Sci-Fi Warriors over on Kickstarter right now as part of DakkaDakka.Store's Legio Prima Victrix campaign. Will you be heading off to forge an empire with these power-armoured miniatures?

The focus of this particular campaign is to get a new range of around 300 3D Printable files into the hands of hobbyists so they can start building alternative armies for Sci-Fi wargames, perhaps even the grimdark kind! Inspired by the look and feel of classic Ancient Roman Legionaries, the idea is that these miniatures provide you with another way for you to bring these warriors from history to the tabletop in a futuristic setting.

The set features a range of character miniatures to use as your legendary heroes as well as the core of your army when it comes to the infantry side of things. The basic foot troops are the Princeps Cohorte Squad where you get access to loads of different weapon options, bodies, arms, legs and more to make your own bespoke force.
If you're interested in looking at the different bits from DakkaDakka.Store and you'd like to try them out before you pledge, there is a free Bitz Pack that you can get your hands on. You could kitbash these with your existing miniatures to see if they work for you.
Additionally, here is a look at how the miniatures look when compared against a few of their Battle Brothers.

Some solid alternatives! These do match up nicely to the likes of Space Marines but I also think that the style of the miniatures would also work with the vibes of the Ravaged Star range by Lazy Squire and MiniWargaming. The chunkier nature of the miniatures feel like they would work well against those chaotic individuals.
Pledge Options + Add-Ons & Stretch Goals
If you're interested in picking these miniatures up, you might be in with a chance of getting one of the Early Bird Specials for the project.

You can also just get a look at the Core Set for Legion Prima Victrix which shows you what you're getting as part of the reward. Not only do you have the infantry and characters that we mentioned above but also a vehicle and lots of additional characters.

As an additional option for this campaign, DakkaDakka.Store are also offering up the option to get your hands on physical miniatures as well as the 3D Printable files. If you don't have a 3D Printer at home, you can simply go for the Physical Add-On Pledge and then pick what you want from their collection. This means you could get whole miniatures OR just get the bitz that you want and plug them in as part of your current collection.
Add-Ons // Legio Prima Victrix
I do like this a lot and it means that if you're not part of the 3D Printing world, you've still got the chance to snap some of these components up for yourself. I think a lot of folks could be tempted to get the character miniatures in particular.
Of course, there are also Stretch Goals in the mix for this campaign which offer up loads of interesting new miniatures!
Stretch Goals // Legio Prima Victrix
I really like the Cohorte Command with that massive spear and shield but I think the winner of "best stretch goal" has to go to the Colossus. I am a big fan of Dreadnoughts and that is ticking a lot of the right boxes. Make sure to keep an eye on the campaign as I'm sure more will be unlocked.

Ooh that looks like fabulous figures.
Thank you! it really is.
Well they all look very good. Is there a game in which one would use these figures?
If you build them with close combat weapons, they would work for Age of Sigmar. Beyond that, I can’t think of anything.
No specific game from DakkaDakka but you could use them in Warhammer 40,000, Grimdark Future or do some kitbashing and use them with a variety of smaller games too.

Guillotine and Brennon said it right. Yeah, we make our minis and bits pretty self-sufficient for players to invent their own worlds, create dioramas and just collect, moreover, our bits are compatible with models from other popular wargames, so you can exercise creative freedom in customization.
For 30k you can take heads, shoulder pads and arms. Legs and torsos are suitable for 40k proportions.
