German Panzergrenadiers Blaze into Combat: Alien War
January 16, 2012 by dracs
Defiance Games have previewed there upcoming Panzergrenadiers who will shortly be kicking off the German faction for Combat: Alien War.
So far this looks like its promising to be a cool looking mini. Check out some of the fire power and other head options which will be available for a unit of these guys.
How do you guys think this is looking? Does it tempt any of you to get into this new game?
That is rather sweet. You can have them as women if you wished.
The lenses on the mask look a bit “soft”- defining the edges will be all in the paint job which isn’t really something I’d want on a basic trooper so I have to do it 60+ times…
Love the gun – reminds me of a Lancer without the chainsaw – plus the head options will make for great variety within a unit. Not sure about the crotch plate though – it’s almost large enough to be a heavyweight champion’s belt…
If these ranges get fully developed, I see sales for GW Imperial guard going right into the poop chute.
this would make a great model for IG noble/royal regiments such as the vitrian dragoons or other heavy “flashy” shock troops. very nice indeed!
Personally I’m waiting for the USMC Hardsuits (whose concept art was flashed around a couple of months back) the most, but I’m begining to like these germans a lot too. The armour reminds me a bit from the anime film Jin-Roh. The caped heads look really good, hope that’ll transfer nicely to plastic. Hopefully these will be released soon.
The thing I like about the heads is they look clean and even if you have a unit of 10 with the same head it’s not that bad. After all they are militery grunts, so they should all look the same to some degree.
