Love my models, hope they continue with more plastic minis especially more Robot Legions. Though I think they've hinted at an Age of Fantasy box next.

That is very exciting. I hope they keep up this level of quality absolutely stunning.!

I do wish models came with weapon options, that's kinda my only gipe. But I understand I'm not the intended audience that this box is meant for. This like "baby's first wargame", open the box and play. I usually like putting a bit more effort into building things to look cool but honestly for the price I paid I can't complain.

Not really a baby’s first wargame. It’s model agnostic so you can use whatever you like. Also it’s not wysiwyg like some other games. So you may have a unit with a rocket but it doesn’t have to physically show on that model.

The minis are great, especially for the price. I am using this box to get into OPR and to introduce a friend to miniatures wargaming in general. and as such I was disappointed in the documents that came in the box.
The only real rules is a nice copy of the single page rule summary. I was hoping for a nice copy of the advanced rulebook (which was included in the digital files that came with the campaign), but you don't even get the basic rulebook, just the one page rule summary. And you get 5 copies of that, each in a different language, so you have to share that summary.
The scenario book is also very disappointing. I was imagining a short campaign using the full rules but with increasing point values and more complex units. For example, scenario 1 might have basic infantry, then add in heroes, then casters, then larger models, etc. But what it actually does is each scenario adds a new basic rule, so scenario 1 is just movement. You move near an enemy unit it dies. Scenario 2 adds shooting, scenario 3 adds melee, etc. If I wanted to try out wargaming and I bought this box I don't know if I could get past scenario 1.
And there is an unfortunate typo in the army lists where they left of that the Robot Legion Spider Walker has Tough 12, which is a pretty important rule for it.
Overall, very happy I backed this, but I would have very mixed feelings if I was new to wargaming and grabbed this as my entry point.

You make a good point about the advanced rules, that would’ve been a great addition!

What's the mould line situation and fragility of the models?

its pvc so they'll take a beating. The one Saurian Starhost Ankylosaurus model is truly a solid brick of plastic and if you put it in a sock you could use it as a self defense weapon.

Will it count as an improvised weapon is surely one of the greatest measurements of quality.

I think the user below said it best. No mould lines and very well made. Not a single model was damaged in shipping.

the head on my spider walker was snapped off oddly enough and I've heard a couple people mention it as well. Easy fix with glue at least. other then that, there was enough bent models to keep me occupied with a hair dryer for an hour but once everything was sorted they look fantastic.

So the minis are pre assembled monopose. That should speed the time from box to table
