Titan-Forge’s X-Terra Vs Daemons Kickstarter Fights On!
February 4, 2015 by brennon
A whole bunch of new stuff is coming your way for the X-Terra Vs Daemons Kickstarter by Titan-Forge. New big models, objective markers, daemons and more are flooding out of the studio...
A whole bunch of extras have popped up for the X-Terra Space Force that include the rather impressive looking APC Sabre which is one hell of a chunky piece of kit that would look awesome with a bit of vehicle-based drybrushing and weathering around the tracks. The Thor cannon then gives you some ranged firepower as the APC advances.
All of this comes on the back of a whole bunch of bundles for the different type of X-Terra force that you want to run. I think I'd have to punt for the full on Terra Bundle which gives you two of the awesome APCs and some of the bikers too.
On the Daemon side of things the creatures of Ignorance have been given some more gribbly monsters to fight with. Slithering and squirming across the floor we have the Spirits of Ignorance that are a twisting mass of smoke and energy. In the skies above the Skybeasts are blotting out the sun.
It certainly looks like the guys at Titan-Forge are playing towards a certain existing set of armies but the difference means that you could easily field these forces in a range of different games.

Good guys – superb. Bad guys – garbage.
There is something that makes me like those demons rather than hate them like some other people in here.
I can’t get the image of ‘attack dog’ suits out of my head when I look at those marines.
These are symptomatic with the current obsession with pointless surface detail. It’s as if some people think the more “detail” you put on each surface the better the miniature. Forget style, forget form and pose and balance, just cram ever available surface with line and blobs and whatnots and you have a brilliant miniature … apparently.
I quite like the Doctor Octopus of the future!
What’s better than a servo arm? FOUR servo arms!!!
I assume there are resin?
Love the tank and the gun platform. (Tarantula)?
Well considering one of their products is £24 for 3 models they can count me out of the game. But saying that, the miniatures are outstandingly good, I will be following the company to see how far they go.
Might have to back just to get that APC.
APC is interesting. Kinda silly but interesting.
Heard they’re pretty shady as far as handling kickstarters goes. Gonna have to give this one a pass.
They *look* like they have a fantastic amount of detail on the human models, great looking … but they’re just 3D sculpts. The proof is in the pudding. The Demons look like standard metal models from the 90s though. Hopefully the APC will be true-scale i.e. not like GW transports.
You mean you don’t like a model where nothing could possibly fit in it? Lol
I’m told, through surfing various blogs, that 1:48 is a much better scale to pair with heroic 28mm figures. Lots of that out there.
Yeah, I have to say I bought a few of GW’s old Rhinos on the cheap to use as transports for my Manic Corporation guys but now for some WEIRD reason old GW classic Rhinos… which look shite… are in high demand on eBay… tenner each they seem to go for. The Mantic models are think and in proportion enough to fit realistically in there.
The scale thing though (1:48) I swear isn’t perfect and differs from company to company.
