FireForge & Warlord Ashigaru comparison
A side by side comparison!
Warlord Games on the left and FireForge Games on the right.
Warllords is a true scale 28mm foot to eye.
FireForge is a Heroic scale 28mm foot to head and to be honest probably 30mm because he is not as erect as the Warlord miniature .
Piece count are the same believe it or not it is 8 . The difference is Warlords the spear is separate and you had to bore out the hand to make it fit ?
And yes I know I left the sword off of the Warlord mini.
FireForge the spear is attached to the hand but face is separate from the helmet. The face slides in perfectly.
I have no idea why FireForge did this. Maybe because it might be easier to paint . I really don’t know.
As far as painting goes I can already say with great confidence that the FireForge mini is going to be a lot easier to paint because of going with the Heroic scale. The detail is larger and crisper than warlords.
As far as assembly goes it went together with no problem and I had no instructions at all. I used Mr. Hobby’s Mr. Cement it’s a plastic cement and I strongly suggest you use a plastic cement when assembling these models it cures fast but you have some play time to maneuver your parts into place and it makes a strong bond.
I don’t know what the price point is going to be but I am liking what I have seen so far with the FireForge’s Ashigaru miniature a lot .
