I personally use 25-28mm Reaper, GW and BTD for my dwarves; and GW Empire for my, well, Empire. What do you use?

I picked up the Tomb Kings battalion box set this past winter and I'm in the process of painting them up right now for Armies of Arcana gaming. I'll supplement this set with Reaper, Grenadier and Ral Partha figs (although I may need another box or two of GW's plastic skellies to round out the list). I haven't played yet, but I like would I've read of the AA rules so far! |

I game in the 15/18mm scale. So the mfgs I use are: - Black Raven - Best bang for buck (quality and price) - Demonworld - Best Sculpt (IMHO) - Chariot - good sculpting - true 15mm - some of the old Reaper 15mm stuff - Grenadier Warlords (OOP) - Ral Partha Battlesystem (OOP) - Rank & File Fantasy (OOP) I regret that I did not buy more of the Ral Partha 3-4 years ago when it was very abundant on Ebay, now not many packs show up for auction. Oh well.... I've toyed with the idea of creating a couple of armies in 25/28mm for kicks and not to mention to paint all that detail. |

Originaly I was going to do it in 15mm and bought a few pack of Demonworld's wood elfs, But now I am planning on doing 25mm and am going to use some GW wood elves that I got a good deal on (buy 2 blister and get one free) and I have just recently bought some Harlequin undead, dwarves and wood elfs on ebay for a great price. I also plan on using some of the old Metal magic undead skeletons that I picked up from discount hobbies from their deal of 24 for $15 I think it was. Anyways this is what I plan on using, but they are not even sheduled to be paint yet. |

For 25-28mm games, a mix of mostly GW plastics and Reaper. For 15mm, mostly Demonworld, with a few Black Raven and (heh) Flames of War minis thrown in. Rich |

I am going to use the GW LOTR stuff with Armies of Arcana in 28mm but the majority of my fantasy gaming is in 15/18mm. I have Black Raven Foundry, Demonworld (great sculpts), Thane's wolfen and snakemen (also great figures), chariot (true 15mm but smaller than many current lines), Ral Partha, Grenadier, Tin Soldier, Irregular, Reaper and probably a few others that I can't remember now. I play a lot of Fantasy Rules! but am planning to do a barbarian army using Demonworld Thain figures as well as others for AoA. In my wolf clan I have regular human soldiers, elite human units, wolfmen, a wolf pack, and human riders and dire wolves. My goal is to do that type of army list for each of the 5 clans (Eagle, Wolf, Lion, Boar, and Bear)

In the past I used 15mm Rank and File medieval miniatures. I currently don't play any sort of *pure* fantasy game. |
