Grima Robots 28mm wave two 16 new poses with Female Control Team

Last year we brought a new faction to the massive 28mm Ion Age range; Grima Combat Robots and their Planetary Militia controllers.  Those sixteen miniatures have now been joined by a further sixteen based on requests.  The range now nears three hundred poses with the second release of Grima Combat Robots with Female Planetary Militia Controllers!

The Planetary Militia are present on virtually every world of the Prydian Precinct and while the bulk of its troops are Men and Women there is another type of soldier who fights; the Grima Combat Robots. Under Human control at all times and incapable of independent thought these machines selflessly serve using the same weapons and equipment that regular Planetary Militia’s do. Specialist operators control them issuing programmed orders. 

If you wish to read in depth into the Gurtan Activation in 4302IC and about the Grima Robots there is an ARTICLE to glean more.

Winter Mega Event 2024 is on!  Until 5th December automatically 20% off at checkout plus 115 new releases and free code in every order shipped.  See the ARTICLE for details.

See all of the GRIMA ROBOTS or the PLANETARY MILITIA on the website refined searches.  These follow up on the brand new PORTABLE WEAPONS and their gun teams for Retained Knights, Muster, Militia plus the Shia Khan Empire last month.  Platoon’s give you two poses free, value packs give a small saving and as always every miniature is a single code too.  Here we go!

Here is a painted example of the typical uniforms of the Grima Combat Robot taken from the first releases last year.  Every planet has its own ideas on colouration with some core worlds matching the robots to regiments of Muster or even Retained powered plate armour.  See code IP06 for the first platoon and packs IB63 to IB66.

Currently in the works at Alternative Armies are playing drafts of MOTH 2.0 and early work on a new edition of Firefight as well.  These, among many other updates, will feature mechanics for the Grima Robots.  

Finally on Thursday 28th November towards the end of the Winter Mega Event we will have the release news of the new 28mm Malig Goblins..the first since 1993.

Thank you for Time
