Wargaming3D&#8217;s parent company, Playable Prints Limited, has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wargaming3d.com\/docs\/shutdown\">announced that it is winding down with the intention to close<\/a>. Wargaming 3D, although maybe not as popular as MyMiniFactory and Cults3D, has been a great resource for the Historical wargamer, with many of our favourite creators also posting there (and providing a new home for the ever-useful Bergman 15mm vehicles). Its closure is not great, causing a great deal of upheaval for many creators who honestly can&#8217;t be bothered to go off and make a new account (although many already have other accounts). The important dates are listed on the website: you have until <strong>31\/05\/2026<\/strong> to buy anything new, but you have until <strong>30\/07\/2026<\/strong> to download all your models and back them up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Something else this points out is a very important fact &#8211; you can not (and should not) use the stores you buy from as the backup for your files.

Patrons got a glimpse earlier this week, showing off all the fancy kit they are carrying. The set above is mostly running upgraded and modified versions of the standard QBZ-191 rifles, with sidearms equipped. However, there are three pieces of direct fire support and one figure capable of bringing in some off-map pain. The special weapons include the previously shown HJ-12 &#8220;Red Arrow&#8221; ATGM, but there is also a machine gunner with a modified QJY-201 medium machine gun, and the team leader also brings a QBS-09 shotgun for breaching action. The final figure ties into the PLA&#8217;s extensive use of unmanned systems to assist on the battlefield, as he is working away on a drone control system. This won&#8217;t be the only Chinese SOF unit coming out, as Patrons will be getting their hands on the weirder loadout for causing shennighans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a33a40e4c8cb&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a33a40e4c8cb\" class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full is-resized wp-lightbox-container\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1440\" height=\"1113\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/image-16-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-33756\" style=\"width:800px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/image-16-2.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/image-16-2-150x116.jpg 150w, https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/image-16-2-768x594.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1440px) 100vw, 1440px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, that&#8217;s not all!

Using one of the bodies from the Rangers (complete with a fancy M7 rifle) and reposed to give plenty of space to paint over, these operators are ideal for trying out camo patterns or just learning to paint.

soon. Personally, I take these with a pinch of salt (I&#8217;ve yet to see a negative answer to any of the suggestions, and there are only so many hours in the day to release stuff), but these do occasionally have some cool things hidden in amongst them. For example, this round of questions included more previews of Vietnam Era SF, Australian and US Army figures and (the biggest news) the first comments that Spectre is working on plastic kits. This is some interesting news, but I&#8217;m looking forward to seeing more details of what Spectre is up to.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Echo Dark Studios Announces Memorial Day Sale For InCountry<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a33a40e4f861&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a33a40e4f861\" class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full is-resized wp-lightbox-container\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/image-17-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-33762\" style=\"width:800px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/image-17-2.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/image-17-2-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/image-17-2-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/image-17-2-1536x864.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It&#8217;s Memorial Day this weekend, and Echo Dark Studios is running a sale from the 21st of May through to the 26th.

As I write this, the Kickstarter is at 1691% funded (so it&#8217;s doing pretty well) and has already surpassed the stretch goals. The pledges are pretty self-explanatory &#8211; the Digital Pledge gets you two sets of regular infantry (the standing and prone sets), the Ratel 90 and the free stretch goals. Stepping up to the Digital Pledge Reinforced adds the ELand 90 and the Recce Team, but if you want all the add-on stretch goals as well, you&#8217;ll need to go to the all-in level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure data-wp-context=\"{&quot;imageId&quot;:&quot;6a33a40e503e6&quot;}\" data-wp-interactive=\"core\/image\" data-wp-key=\"6a33a40e503e6\" class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full is-resized wp-lightbox-container\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1360\" height=\"1217\" data-wp-class--hide=\"state.isContentHidden\" data-wp-class--show=\"state.isContentVisible\" data-wp-init=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\" data-wp-on--load=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" data-wp-on--pointerdown=\"actions.preloadImage\" data-wp-on--pointerenter=\"actions.preloadImageWithDelay\" data-wp-on--pointerleave=\"actions.cancelPreload\" data-wp-on-window--resize=\"callbacks.setButtonStyles\" src=\"https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/MiskaStretch.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-33783\" style=\"width:800px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/MiskaStretch.jpg 1360w, https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/MiskaStretch-150x134.jpg 150w, https:\/\/hntdaab.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/MiskaStretch-768x687.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1360px) 100vw, 1360px\" \/><button\n\t\t\tclass=\"lightbox-trigger\"\n\t\t\ttype=\"button\"\n\t\t\taria-haspopup=\"dialog\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-bind--aria-label=\"state.thisImage.triggerButtonAriaLabel\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-init=\"callbacks.initTriggerButton\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-on--click=\"actions.showLightbox\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--right=\"state.thisImage.buttonRight\"\n\t\t\tdata-wp-style--top=\"state.thisImage.buttonTop\"\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"12\" height=\"12\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 12 12\">\n\t\t\t\t<path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M2 0a2 2 0 0 0-2 2v2h1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 1 .5-.5h2V0H2Zm2 10.5H2a.5.5 0 0 1-.5-.5V8H0v2a2 2 0 0 0 2 2h2v-1.5ZM8 12v-1.5h2a.5.5 0 0 0 .5-.5V8H12v2a2 2 0 0 1-2 2H8Zm2-12a2 2 0 0 1 2 2v2h-1.5V2a.5.5 0 0 0-.5-.5H8V0h2Z\" \/>\n\t\t\t<\/svg>\n\t\t<\/button><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Speaking of stretch goals, they have been stormed through with only four left. This has included both free variations (such as the helmeted alternatives, rucksacks and the good old Bren gun), some major paid additions (Yep, that does say horse patrol), some good weapon additions (such as the Ratel\/Eland turret with 20mm cannon, figures armed with the R1\/FAL and even the notrious MGL) and plenty of scenario sets (such as the medics, dismounted crews and prisoner). This is a good set of stretch goals, taking the sets to the next level. I&#8217;m looking forward to seeing more of these figures printed, especially the Bren team and the R1 variants.

Modern Combat. Earlier this week, they announced a brand new release and something a little unusual. Far from adding new fighters or a new faction, this pack will add another element to wargaming &#8211; the media! As someone who has occasionally slapped down a TV journalist to give my players something to think about, I&#8217;m always happy to see this element being included. However, this is the first time that a figure is an explicit tribute to a renowned war journalist (as opposed to Empress&#8217;s heavily inspired journalist). The figure you can see above is inspired by Arturo P\u00e9rez-Reverte, a Spanish writer (responsible for the Captain Alatriste novels), but also a war journalist for Spanish national TV (TVE) between the 1970s and the 1990s. There are some lovely little details on the figures, both distinctive but also able to blend into your wargaming table.
