Like the title says, announcement for new codes on the Ground Zero Games web store, should have more details after the convention this weekend: shop.groundzerogames.net I'm jealous of the folks who will be getting to see this stuff this weekend, but it's nice to see more UNSC and NAC stuff and the first production codes for TW coming soon. |

Very nice, the spider drones with rotary cannons are pretty cool too. |
 MrHarold  | 12 Oct 2012 4:27 p.m. PST |
Wow! I guess i'll be building more armies…  |

Man, good thing Christmas is coming. My wallet can't take it! |

Glad to hear about the new releases, but sadly, still no UNSC Hardsuit figs. Reports from the battle front are dire, with UN forces having to fall back in the face of heavy assaults by troops in hard battle armor. Casualties being suffered by the UNSC Light Troopers cannot be sustained much longer……. |

Mako, that sound you hear is the world's smallest violin being played by the entirety of the Phalon, Kra'Vak, and Sa'Vasku species. :) Also, Full Thrust leadheads haven't had a new release in two years, but at least there's some on the horizon for November. |

Casualties being suffered by the UNSC Light Troopers cannot be sustained much longer……. I solved that problem by issuing each platoon with a three man Cyclops battlesuit and supporting the whole formation with two wheeled IFVs and two wheeled SPGs attached to an HQ section composed a single wheeled command vehicle. |

I will wait for leaders and specialist first. I have bought too many ranges that took forever for leaders to appear. |

You know what it would help sales? Pictures! (waiting for the onslaught of the DMBBde – Defensive Man-Boy Brigade- ) Seriously, having seen painted examples at Colin's blog I am rather intrigued by the sculpts of the Glory troopers.

Oh, great – more 15mm and what do the starship players fet? Shortened spider arm fighter stands. yay :( |

He did promise some new FT stuff in November. Long overdue, but if we get a new fleet or even just the rest of the Mystery Fleet and ScanFed classes I'm willing to forgive him for the two and a half years of nothing. |

Quoting wolfprophet: "attached to an HQ section composed a single wheeled command vehicle." The UNSC commander was on a unicycle? I'd love to see pics of that  Returning to the OP, I'll be at SELWG tomorrow so will almost certainly be picking up some of the spider drones, the UNSC bits and maybe the NAC kettenkrad. OK, let's face it – I *will* be picking those up – Jon's stand will be located so that you have to pass it on your way to the main trade area. |

See what I was meaning? I was half convinced by the sample pack, now I have to acquire those! :D |
| Sean Kotch | 13 Oct 2012 11:47 a.m. PST |
Those pics definitely just helped sway me. I've held off buying anything from GZG so far because I just couldn't see the products. No more excuses. Now there are just too many cool lines of 15mm minis out there competing for my cash! I thought I'd save money by switching to 15mm… |
| Eli Arndt | 13 Oct 2012 12:14 p.m. PST |
The pictures were not put up on the store as they are not available through the store. The images were made available to me for posting on Dropship Horizon as a sort of teaser preview for the readers there. When they are available on the store, they will be added. -Eli |

(waiting for the onslaught of the DMBBde – Defensive Man-Boy Brigade- ) Someone needs to sculpt some fat nerds doing sci-fi LARPing or we'll never get accurate figures to represent this force.
The UNSC commander was on a unicycle? I'd love to see pics of that Should have worded that better. ;)
A lone, wheeled command vehicle. I used the 8-Wheel stryker-like family of vehicles to support my UNSC troops. HQ of one vehicle
Two IFVs(No troops attached….yet.)
Two SPGs and the platoons are all foot infantry, each organized as
1 HQ section w/ ATGM, SAW and 4 rifles.
3 Rifle sections w/ 5 rifles, 1 SAW
1 Heavy Rifle section w/ 4 Rifles, 1 SAW and 1 Anti-materiel rifle.
1 Battlesuit team of three suits, one with a support weapon. So, 33 men x2 and well supported by light vehicles. |

"Someone needs to sculpt some fat nerds doing sci-fi LARPing or we'll never get accurate figures to represent this force." Speak for yourselves. I'm a hulking mass of handsome muscular superhero man-meat. Who just happens to play with toy soldiers… um… |
