15mm Scale Mortis

All weapons for the 15mm scale Leviathans….

Whoohoo!

I'm trying to figure out how to boost my order.

I'm thinking a Mortis, and a pair of Novas (are they universal left/right, Mark?)

Best,
JBR

Yep, they will come with the armor for both left and right, and the guns themselves work on either arm….

You will be all set!

Thanks John!

Hallelujah! hey, I'm perfectly happy using 15mm infantry from other companies as proxy, but I would just like to point out that a complete 15mm line would be pretty freaking awesome, and infantry can be done really well. I mean, just browse some of the better lines of mini's for the scale and you will see that its possible.

Well, I backed the project for three 15mm Crusaders plus 4 each of the Nova Cannon, Hel Cannon and Beowulf/Grendal. I'm not big on melee weapons on Mecha, but who knows, maybe I will reconsider and add a few more extra weapons.

I really hope at some point we see a full 15mm line. Mark, this would be your change to be the only company making 15mm SciFi in plastic, but I understand your concerns and all the work that would have to go into the designs. I expect we will hear more about it later after you have all the bugs worked out with this first several runs of models.

Best of luck on the Kickstarter!!!

The biggest issue is the infantry, the complex undercuts created when making these into single piece minis is almost impossible to fix for plastic. Perhaps I would need to go metal for the infantry but that opens a huge can of worms for the distribution end… I am tired of boxing and shipping in my living room ;)

Take a look at the new Flames of War box set. It has both German and US infantry in plastic. You can see what kind of detail they were able to get, and that should give you an idea of how you can tweak your designs for infantry of that scale

I can only imagine how much time some of you guys spend doing that . . . . .
