What figures do you use as civilians?

[kidterminal]

Corvus Belli Has made one limited edition civilian figure. But it will be a long time before we see a Varity of civilian figures produced by them. So for now what figures do you us as civilians in your games?

I like to use this little girlie here. Excuse the totally unfinished paint job. We all know we’re being bad when we choose the “Kill the Pigeon” objective. Now we can feel bad too.

This is Sarah from Hasslefree Miniatures. Hasselfree has two other waifs subtitle as victims, I mean pigeons.

Hassle free has some great civvie choices. Also Antenociti has some great sci fi civvies.

Links and pictures Frank. We don't need to fear. We are independent!

[Athanadros]

LOL! Very tru. He sells each of these seperate or the whole set in one box.


Just type civilian in the search function on his site. I am not the biggest fan of these models but they do fit the theme very well.

I love the Antenociti ones (even if they come with gimp robots for some reason). Very clean sci-fi, Infinity-fitting. I like that gas-mask girl from Hasslefree, but I'm not fond of their models in general because of the rough, "heroic" scale. Guess I've been spoiled by CB

[kidterminal]

Hasselfree are not at all heroic scale. Here is a scale comparison between a Hasslefree juvenile, a CB and Reaper figure.

For the Zday scenario, we used the misses malifaux collection, mostly the dreamer and hollow waifs, but those SciFi civvies look groovy.

As a noob-player: where would I need civvies for?

[Pierzasty]

For YAMS, that a lot of people use.

YAMS?

YAMS?

YAMS is an objective system for ITS (tournaments). It is a deck of cards. Each player draws a set of 8 cards then discards 2 of them. An objective is printed on each card. Achieving the objective gives you victory points. There are 2 objectives involving a civilian, capture the pigeon and kill the pigeon.

I played Spinespur from Comfy Chair games from way back. I think it's still around, but unfortunately, not a lot of people play them like they used to. Anyway, I used these from their line:




and this:





Yep, even 80's rockstars have their place in the future!

Those are awesome! Replace shades with eye implants and pistols with suitcase-SMGs and they'll fit right in as GITS-bodyguards!

[kidterminal]

I like the Spinespur figures but never played the game. Where did you get Gene Simmons?

[Athanadros]

That Gene Simmons is awesome!!

[Crushar]

Gene FREAKING Simmons?!?!?! Okay, where did you get that one! I want it!

Googling "Spinespur" now....

[Crushar]

Dude.....why did you send me to this freaking game!!! And I thought I had issues!
(But I will be getting the Gene Simmons model)

[Maru]

cyvis ?
well i would go for this :
Fenris Games


or :
Hostages Armorcast

[kidterminal]

I thought those were TAG figures?

[Warmill]

Oh man those hostages are awesome! Can you get them anywhere in the uk?

[kidterminal]

They are Tactical Miniatures figures sold by Armorcast.

[iron panda]

I think I still have the Gene Simmons(named Sex Star Six in Spinespur) model stored somewhere. Hopefully, I still have it despite the move. That model must have taken out crazed hillbillies, orphans, nuns... man, those were the days.

Anyway, the Armorcast hostages are so appropriate for Infinity and its black ops theme. Just by their esthetics, a scenario or three could be devised with a little brainstorming.

[chromedog]

These are my civvies.



A mix of Ral Partha, Foundry and Grenadier (and all ex-cyberpunk rpg npc figures from my rpg campaigning over the years).

[kidterminal]

I recognized some of these from my RPG days. Here's a very old Shadowrun figure, the picture doesn't do it justice.

I bought Kirai from malifaux a while ago, i plan on making her a yu-jing VIP/civilian. Fortunatelly the hands are separate from the mini, it should be an easy conversion.
I will probably cut the scisors and insert an "holopad" in the hands.

[kidterminal]

Great idea! I hope she isn't too tall. Several Malifaux figures are 30mm tall.

[Pierzasty]

That base is 30mm, so she's definitely taller.

[Salty_Otter]

Been looking for some civs for my games and I'd like to check these out compared to Infinity miniatures. I like some of the poses and the tied up victims are cool as well.

[kidterminal]

Yes these are cool but the clothing styles are 1920's. With some interesting color schemes you might get away with it.

Guys, guys, you do know about the advertising ru... Oh wait, wrong forum. Carry on
