OK, Rebel Minis Cultists are nice "formal" cultists, check.

QRF makes a weird "Zombie/Crazy civilian" line that will work in a late 19th/early 20th period.

What else? Need civilians that are not exactly zombies, not all dead or messed up, but menacing and plodding.


Ideas?


I'm thinking a TSATF type game, in a Innsmouth like community, with units of armed police/military, Deep Ones, Cultists and mutant civilians.

Looking for non zombies with the "look", kinda shambling, kinda reaching out

When Khurasan comes back from maintenance next week, check out the horror range. I thought there were a few shady characters that might work as cultists, and there are also more formal cultists besides the thugs in civilian attire.

Also in the same range are some figures based on a 1980's werewolf film that includes armed villagers in clothes that will work for the roaring 20's.

Yes, Khurasan, when they come back!

Already loaded up on the Blue Moons, rvand, but thanks! :)


QRF has three great sets:

SF14 Unarmed civilians or zombies

SF15 Civilians with improvised weapons (rioters)

MMI02 Male civilians in outdoor clothing

Some of the sculpts are kinda goofy, which is PERFECT for Innsmouth civilians! :()


Need more!

15mm.co.uk has a great set of 15mm cultists. I use them in my horror WWII games.

Partisans by Eureka work for armed normal humans.

Ooh! Forgot 15mmco.uk and Eureka! Thanks!

Hell, Florida swamps, late 1800's, might as well use some Seminoles and maroons I have? Many farmed and fished right here (where the game will be based) at that time.

Also, This area was a little rough then, so some rough rider types could be involved as militia/law enforcement?

Smokey Roan03 Apr 2014 6:02 p.m. PST

Dang, those 15mmco UK cultists are great! But, they carry modern weapons! D'oh! :(

OK, for weird civilans, have QRF, Blure Moon Angry villagers (remember, my set up is about 1885)

For Cultists: Rebel Minis guys, and maybe Khurasan Octopus cultists

Fishmen: Rebel and Khurasan

Militia: Have plenty of US militia types for the period.

US military: What types would invade Vero Beach in 1885? A bit early for SAW infantry, no? A bit late for US cavalry types from the indian wars? Help!

Wouldn't late Plains Wars U.S. infantry work? I don't think campaign dress had changed much.

Rebel also has Deep Ones, listed in the Pulp section.

In the Horror section, their Zombie Ragers aren't particularly decayed, could work well.

And in their Gangs and Gunmen section, there's some civilians I would definitely qualify as plodding, as well as various armed police and other angry types (like the modern rioters.) Some might be a bit modern for your purposes, but still.

Splintered Light is what you're looking for, especially the Pulp section listed above. Police officers, thugs, and civilians. Definitely leans closer to 15mm than Blue Moon does, but I think they'd work fine on the same board. The zombies in the post-apocalyptic section would also work IMHO.

What about the Navy or Marines? Minifigs have ACW sailors and landing parties.
