Hello everyone!

As we start to plan what models we will be releasing next year and beyond, we wanted to take some time to get your feedback on what sorts of minis and factions you would like to see released next from OPR. This is something we used to do pretty regularly, but it has been awhile since we've polled the community, and we know we've gotten plenty of new people in the community the last couple of years!

So if you could, please take a few minutes to take this survey letting us know what minis you would like to see next for Grimdark Future and Age of Fantasy here on Patreon. (Please note that this is for new 3d printable minis here on Patreon, not which plastic model line we should release next in stores.)

Thank you all so much for you time, we can't wait to see what answers you give.

Happy Wargaming!

As a DM, I love Kobolds. They are little goobers you can toss into almost any encounter at any level. I was not aware a kobold army was an option! 👀

Alex Hunt

Love it! I was excited to post my thoughts. Thank you for the opportunity, and as always, keep up the amazing work. :D

Damon C Richardson

Kobolds are in strong demand. As are chivalrous troops that are not goofy and more historically grounded.

Felippe Manjavachi

Do people really hate the OPR Orks? I only dislike the Grimdark weapons — so basic and boring... All melee weapons are so weak compared to the Fantasy Orcs. The Goblin Death Walkers have the perfect saw. Just resize it and give it to the Ork Ultra Veterans... (Please, I really want to print 12 of those guys, but that saw is so lackluster.)

BRex

There is a severe lack of good Dark Elf sculpts online. Would love to see your take on them!

Cygwulf

And fantasy goblins

Brandon Ryan

That’s because fantasy goblins start next month lol

Jeff Chambers

They have to keep the game balanced somehow. Kobolds are just unfair, especially the 'Tucker' variety.

Wilhem Faust

The orcs do not bother me I would go so far as to say I'd rather they stay as they are if I want "classic" orks I can buy some from GW plus many creators have already made orcs who have the classic GW look and to be honest I'd rather OPR stay far away from designs which could attract GW's sight on it too much.

Jeff Chambers

It's the first army to strongly diverge from the GW version (Fantasy rats did too) and GW Orks are a fan-favorite due to their personality/insanity. I personally prefer the OPR style, but I'm not representative of the fanbase.

Mitchell Whitmer

It's fine, so long as the kobolds don't have the home field advantage. 🤣

El Ruben

I think you answered your own question: the Sci-Fi Orks really do seem to lack personality—perhaps in terms of their weapons and anatomy—and I think they're the least eye-catching of all the OPR armies.

Jeremy Allan

People complained a lot especially for the SciFi orcs that they were such a departure from what they were hoping for. Tano really put his foot down /dug his heels in on making it "their own thing" but I honestly think it was a failure to listen to what the community was actually asking for. Frankly they should have been a unique army. At least that way there would have been less need for them to change up how the army list was laid out before

El Ruben

I understand a little bit why people don't like sci-fi orcs; to me, at least, they just seem like bigger, “greener” humans, and I also find their weapons and equipment less creative or eye-catching. To avoid ending up like the Orks from Warhammer 40,000, I’d just tweak their weaponry a bit to make it more eye-catching. For example, Orks with jetpacks—even though the concept sounds great—end up looking so bland with their ordinary pistols and such a plain jetpack that it’s actually off-putting. It's a bit like with the Ratmen Clans—their very round vehicles, like the egg-shaped Walker, don't quite fit with their appearance.

Christopher Pittman

I'd second that. The GW dark elf aesthetic is fine, but I do like the narrative differences in the OPR dark elf raiders faction, and I think there is a lot of potential for interesting sculpts!

SlocumJoe

I prefer 40k Orks, BUT I don't want to see the line redone if it puts other stuff further back, I'd rather see new unique sculpts of new factions.

SlocumJoe

Agreed 100% I want to see new armies and new takes on existing ideas. I already have a Ork army for around 30 years. There are SOOOOO many creators doing 40k style Orks (with a k)

2026-11-05 00:00 "Classic" orks are a dime a dozen in the 3D printing space. Between creators like Puppetswar and Modulorka, Ork don't need more models. I'd say divest efforts elsewhere. You made your models, you guys had an idea, a vision, and they are done now so lets move on to get the main factions models.

No One of Consequence

I don't mind their look per se, but IMO their non-cartoony design doesn't fit the army's playstyle. There is some dissonance for me there.

Safior

If this the Wakanda style army who win for Fantasy, I do hope you take inspiration from real african history & myths, and not just Wakanda itself. If you struggle to find something, I can help, I am really interested in the subject.

Kyle Bentley

Something I forgot to mention in the survey, but I would like to bring up. I would really appreciate it if OPR's sculptors (and those from a lot of other studios, it's not a unique thing) would spend more time researching firearms and how they work on a technical level, to improve the believability of some of them. OPR's are better than a lot of other studio's but there is always room for improvement.

Gregory Crawford

Does "Classic" Orc mean similar to 40k orcs? Or were there orc scults for OPR before I don't know about?

Stephen Schneider

Bring back to fortifications to the rule set (bunkers, towers, terrain pieces that do things. I have a lot of models that I can't use, and OPR is supposed to be that place. Otherwise, make you own battle brothers that fit your story and your aesthetic.

Ben Boersma

Frogs, frogs and more frogs. Not enough frog miniatures out there.

Forrest Wentworth

Why can't we give Kobolds home field advantage? Oh yeah - paper mache boulders filled with hornets. I almost forgot about those - but my players never will. Hehehehehe

Caleb

I imagine those will be a special project. Fewer models but all of them huge.

Matthew Stagg

Yes, I would salivate over fantasy or sci-fi kobold armies

Matt Drake

Yes. I don't care too much about AoF orcs, since GW split them from goblins it really made clear to me how boring they are. Orks, though... They're just *fun*. In a sea of space fash and so serious grimdark, the boyz are out having a laugh. Like, the first time you learn about the mechanics of the Shokk Attack Gun, I dunno how you can't crack a smile. Or the weirdboy blowing up, or the ramshackle repurposed vehicles, or color theory... OPR's take missed that entirely.

Damon C Richardson

This is so true. Although we are dealing with fantasy and fiction. Just making some goofy thing with a barrel is painful. Also overly stylized fantasy weapons are another annoyance that plagues the industry.

Alexander Matos

When you say 'classic orks' I'm assuming you mean adding the brute orcs to sci-fi faction.

Alexander Matos

Seeing how the Dahomy was a popular discussion years ago, I think making this potential african faction the AOF's version of Amazon's would make them stand out more.

Richard Pittaway

especially pirate elves in Fantasy. I would love to see what kind of Parrots they have

Dr.Eamer

i misunderstood what classic meant. i am not a huge fan of the scifi orcs but love the Ratmen Clans

Safior

That would be interesting, Ihope if they do with that direction, they will not forget to add creatures/monster from this part of the world, like the Iroko & Aziza.

Robert Maxwell

Id like them to release models and faction books for the existing factions first before adding new factions or redoing existing models.

shonuffstudios

The Gangs of New Eden need FULL lines of minis. Also, Make your analogs of Skirmish Fantasy Lines. (coughmordheimcough) I'd pay for small skirmish warbands of the various Races and regional humans. also, you can use the chance to do refreshes on certain minis in the skirmish lines, that can be then folded into full armies!@

shonuffstudios

Skirmish games are slowly overtaking full army games in popularity. Double down on the skirmish lines for both "Firefight" and "Skirmish".. kick out small skirmish warbands.

WyrdMonger

I think potentially after the armies, that come after the current upcoming armies. Basically VoidSpace Stalkers -> Next Planned Sci-Fi Army -> Poll Winner

Richard Pittaway

This but make them Cat-themed (Panther? maybe). This would be a)a unique faction that really hasn't been done to death, b) covering those who want cat armies anyway c) far enough away from a Marvel Property to not trigger litigation while also being close enough to evoke the similarity

Safior

But do this culture have an myth aboot cat-people ? After all my research I have yet to found an answer. You would have better luck with Elephants, hyeana & apes/monkey.

sirenn tripp

I WOULD LOVE THE FANTASY GOBLINS SECOND CHOICE WOULD BE GHOST ARMY AND FOR GRIMDARK DARK ELF

Alexander Matos

Too be honest, just make them standard humans. The Amazon idea is good enough.

Alexander Matos

I just looked up the Iroko and I think that it also work to further deepen the lore of the beastmen, since a magis tree is involve.

Safior

Would be kind of boring to just make another Human race, instead oftaking inspiration from african myth to make something unique.

Alexander Matos

I mean we don't really get a lot of African influence in fantasy settings most of the time, besides Egypt.

Andrew M

All units need a helmeted and unhelmeted option. Earlier factions like the HDF, High Elf Fleets, and Dwarf Guilds got this treatment, but Ratmen and Orc didn't (at least what I can tell from MMF screenshots).

Steven Parker

The style of the OPR orcs is good, imo. The problem with the range is all the duplicate heads across the range. The models are just too samey across the range. A huge disappointment considering a benefit of stls should be a wider variety of dynamic minis.

Steven Parker

The Guild Dwarves are very different than Votann too. And I think that this is a detriment. I love dwarves, especially space dwarves but those models are just too blocky and lack fine details. It's like they were exported from an early era Playstation game. The fantasy dwarves have a good concept and had some promise but there are too many repeated features. The sculpts poses are also very lacklustre. Running full army would be like running a clone army, which is basically Votanns lore and they actually have a more diverse range of heads and armour.

Steven Parker

For sure, but they need to recruit more skilled modellers. Skirmish scale models are much more detailed and have more personality than the type of minis that OPR currently releases.

Steven Parker

GW didn't invent that style of orc. They made some tweaks and reimagined them as SciFi soccer hooligans but that's it.

Fomorian

We need some Pirates and some proper Dark Elves for AoF pls or Kingdom of Angels with amazing Angel sculpts, or Havoc Dwarves finally! #hashut

Angrax85

Why not tribes combined with mythical shapeshifting, this way especially felines and maybe insects (scarabs) are also covered.

WyrdMonger

Interesting. I wouldn't mind some hybrids, as long as they don't take too long to create.

Kipp Beard

I would love to see some insect men beetle army for grim dark future. Like Mantis warriors stag beetle mounts.

Wilhem Faust

Agreed goofy things with a barrel only works with 40k Orks lol.

Brad Blackmon

VamPIRATES!!!! YES PLEASE!! Also might be a hot take but SciFi Vampiric Undead could be really cool for a miniature line. There's some scifi zombies but we really don't have alot in the way of scifi vampires, ghouls and werewolves.

Brad Blackmon

Big agree there about the chivalric kingdoms

Brad Blackmon

I do agree with the firearms.... Now wait until you hear my rant about sculpters not giving "fully armored" models Gauntlets lol.

EdgarAllanPoon

I have been a subscriber for years, and although I haven't loved a lot of the model designs over the past few years I really love the Voidspace Stalkers so far. The survey had me thinking when it asked if I would be interested in alternative sculpts for units that already exist, no new unit sheet. As someone who hasn't liked a lot of the heroic proportion models, with the big feet and hands, it would be cool to see alternate sculpts that focus on realistic proportions and high detail. I'd even be willing to pay for a higher tier for something like that.

Richard Pittaway

Will we see results for this poll? I'm a math person by inclination and love statistics.
