This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

I especially like Wargames Factory's samurai line

I have wargames factory vikings & saxons and love them. The only set I got from them that I didn't care for were the skeletons. They were so flimsy and in so many pieces that assembly turned out to be a nightmare.

I still plan on using the bones as base material and perhaps "filling" for a clearcast resin gelatinous cube.

Wow, what a creative idea.

Wargames Factory has retooled their skeletons, they're a bit beefier and on a single sprue now.  Supposedly the zombies are next up.

Good to hear, thanks. I might give the new box of skeletons a try. :)
