Spartan Send In The Awesome Walkers For Planetfall!
August 27, 2014 by brennon
Spartan Games have previewed some more walkers and tanks for the world of Firestorm and Planetfall, their ground based game. See what you think of these rather spiffing looking miniatures...
I quite like the tanks but my God those awesome walkers are brilliant. I love the Dindrenzi one but the Terran Alliance walker is now finally my mech of choice. It feels very mechwarrior and I love the guns that this thing is equipped with. Some huge gatling cannons and what looks like a pair of railguns perhaps?
I have a feeling this game is going to be a massive hit when it finally arrives on the surface of the war torn planet we call Earth.
What do you think?

The too one reminds me of the Robot Jox movie…

I’m rather taken, with the Terran alliance guy
yeah, that Terran Alliance mech looks great 🙂
I wonder how tall that is compared to a 28mm mini 🙂
… parts for a new Tau Crisis Suit Commander maybe ? 😉
or maybe a Broadside 😀 just add a head, some arm parts and convert the legs a bit 😉
Those look great. Definitely leaning toward this system for fleet/planet campaigns.
Not doing any 15mm but this might be the first
10mm ..
Ok, a must have to paint and present.
The recently released Dropzone Resistance figures are making this a really tough call… in a good way… but still a tough call. And now that DZC has a fleet game in the works, my dilemma can only get worse.
I prefer what I have seen a lot more than DZC. I never fell in love with the DZC designs, thought them to be too generic for my taste. But Planetfall is more to my liking.
And those giant robot titans, uh yeah let them fall !
For me it will likely come down to cost and game mechanics. I don’t know much in that regard about DZC, but it would be great if BoW did a comparison once everything is released by both companies. As for the fluff: don’t care. Some companies depend on it to sell their stuff, but all I care about is game play and the figures. I can make my own fluff, if necessary :-).
Love the terran mech.
NNNNNnnghgggh…uhhmm….GAH, TAKE MY MONIES!
any word on when this will hit? I am really interested in the whole idea of the campaign potential.
They aim for october from what they said. No official info (I imagive given 2 false starts already they want to make sure they release it this time…) but that’s what they commented on their FB feed and forum.
Okay, I read the article and followed the link to the site . . . so forgive me if I’m missing something . . . but does anyone know what scale these figures are in?
Oh, there it is. 10mm. Got it.
Was hoping these would be in 15mm, damn!
I was sorely tempted by DZC but seeing that this game thundering over the horizon gives a pause for thought…
Definitely a looker and will certainly be keeping an eye on it. Dakka Dakka have pics of what look to be an army starter set and my word, it looks rather marvellous. I shouldn’t be interested in other systems with the amount of games and miniatures that are in need of my attention but if the price is right, I’ll hop aboard the Planetfall express!
This is a big contender for future DZC dollars… Looking good so far.
Aquan prime looking more boxy than I expected… Dindrenzi looking LESS boxy than expected… Terran looking awesome ! 🙂
If they retain the basic core to the rules and objectives as the initial release, this game will be amazing. Though I have DZC – will add this to the growing lead (or should that now be resin) mountain. Have all 6 core races available will actually be a good thing, especially if people brought into FSA – which will be adding troop transports and assault ships to each fleet.
Is that terran one somewhat metal gear inspired?
