Send in the Marines!

On the borders of civilized space an the outer sphere, there may be aliens, robots and genetically engineered super soldiers.  But when it comes to a proud fighting force like no other, the Galactic Co-Prosperity Sphere sends in the marines.


April sees the release of the GCPS for Warpath and Firefight.  At last you can fill the battlefield with a massive army of humans.  They may not be the best at any single thing, but they have the tools for all situations.

GCPS Lieutenant / Major Loren Chard  $12.99  MGWPG201

  • 1 Metal Miniature with alternate components

To start your force is a leader.  This metal kit has alternate arms and heads to make a Lieutenant, or the special character Major Loren Chard.  Or just to customize your leaders.  These are new "retail exclusive" models - if you backed the Kickstarter and got a GCPS force, you got a different, one piece Major Loren Chad model (and the old commander (which is almost the same model as Coach Ronnie for Dreadball).


GCPS Trooper  $29.99  MGWPG301

  • 20 Multi-Part Hard Plastic Miniatures
Of course, you need basic marines.  A lot of them.  These come 5 to a sprue (with the bodies separate) with a lot of options on them.

GCPS Anti-Tank Weapons Teams  $19.99  MGWPG302




  • 5 Multi-Part Hard Plastic Miniatures with Metal Upgrade Components
The heavy weapons teams include a single sprue of marines, and metal upgrade components.  I can see a lot of these selling (especially as the kickstarter backers only got ONE set of the upgrade components).

These are the upgrade pieces I got in the kickstarter - I would assume you only get the appropriate weapons for the team you purchase.

TAD-65 Hornet Dropship $39.99 MGWPG502

If you haven't already heard, every ticket to Mantic night at Adepticon next month entitles you to receive one of these.  The tickets are only $30 - so you are already getting a great deal.  They also include 2 drink coupons, and a chance to hob nob with Ronnie, Pat and Martin!  If you haven't gotten yours yet - tickets are available here.



Of course if you want to actually play the army, then the army deals are always a great bargain.  They have both a mega force and a starter army.
