Gents? Is there a list or catalog anywhere which shows the models and figures that have been made over the last few years? So I can get a grasp on what I need to get to fill in units? Miniature Market has quite a different variety than the stuff I see on E-bay. Hard to see what exactly was made. Also, has anyone bought or built a Land Ironclad or Goliath??? They look HUGE!!!!!!!

WOWZA!
So it comes down to the question:
How many Tripods does it take to kill one Land Ironclad?!?

Well, there has been some experimentation on that subject. We tried a few games with an equal point value of tripods (750) and it wasn't anywhere near a fair match. The tripods got squashed every time. I think the consensus is that you need 1250-1500 points of Martians to give a land ironclad a good fight.

We've played a couple of games with the LIC, but can't remember the points we used. You can see the forces in the pictures HERE, and the battle reports tell what happened. And I have two of THESE to play with soon... HUZZAH for HMLS Primrose Hill!

Has anyone played multiple Land Ironclads?

I have a Goliath. It is about the size of a 1:35 scale tank. It is a match for a dominator.

The Goliath just doesn't have the armor of an Ironclad, right?
Saw an IC on Ebay for $300 plus bucks, from England. Wonder if I could scratch build one?
Big nasty games!!!

I went to the original AQMF site, looks like all the originally produced items are listed there, just "out of stock".
But it appears that not everything is there. I guess some items were produced from other companies?
Like I did not see any Ironclads, Goliaths or the Martian?

The original AQMF site, owned and run by Alien Dungeon, is long gone. 95% of all models were produced by them. After the bankruptcy, they were bought by Ironclad Games/Miniature Market who reestablished the game at quietmartianfront.com. They produced the Goliath, the Overseer and pieces to add to a regular tripod to make it a "Gatherer" Tripod. I'm not sure if they created any other "new" models. A couple other companies have produced compatible models (particularly slave2gaming and Conqueror Models) which are great fun, but have never been "official."

And there are two Martian style machines available through Rebel Miniatures. I've got one of each of them and use them as 2nd Gen. tripods - see my TO&E on the anti-aircraft tripod and the force-field tripod. They also have some foot troops that I used to create a 2nd Generation unit from. These are not Lobos, as they use no human shell, but, are self contained fighters. More food, less waste for a hunger Martian empire.

I am working on a excel catalog spreadsheet that will have new, prime, paint, ready and totals. Will share when complete.
