Some pics someone snapped from gencon



With some of the vehicles so large, I wonder how many infantry you're suppose to field

Looks good to me. I like the small clanky box tank. The USA concept art is cool too, for a change.

I think Krieg players just found a cheap (presumably) source of tanks!

Screw the Krieg, my Steampunk death guard got some new vehicles to cannibalise for parts

A friend sent me over some pics of in the pipeline stuff for this - there's a Queen Victoria-esque figure, some very nice jetpackers (Looks like several factions get them) and the generals are really nicely detailed.

That Faust/Not-Metzger's on my to-buy list

Def. getting those Prussians with tesla-bayonets as Praetorians for Only War.

...and laugh as your enemies die pooing sparks!

More pics

Hnnnng, that robot..

The more I see...


...the more I want!

I hope the pricing on these is going to be OK/decent.

That is, not-GW-like!

The largescale vehicles look tremendous. Hopefully the rules aren't spartans typically vapid and random affair. This is a big departure for them.

I pray they don't use exploding sixes.

Wow, all of the tanks seem to have scaled up pretty nicely.

You and me both!

You know what they say though - live in hope, die in vain!

Still, here's to hoping!

Looks like my praertorian/ steampunk AdMech force will become a reality soon!

I dislike a lot of the figures but they are great praetorian fodder.

I'm pretty tired of steam punk stuff, personally. In my mind it worked for Space:1889 and that's about it.

Screw all the other armies talked about, my Orks just found more conversion opportunities, specially them small ones for grot tanks!

Tanks look nice.
Really hate the concept art for the British though, really lazy design.

That's the first thing that I thought. I've been scratching my head for alternatives to the Centaurs at FW prices. If these are decently priced (and easily convert-able), I'm getting a bunch for my Krieg army.

Tabletop fix have more pretty pics inclulding pictures of the starter box contents.

I saw this being demo'd at Colours 2012 last weekend. The sculpts are amazing and very detailed. The 28mm upsizing works really well. Shame i didnt take my camera with me to get some photos.

Awww heck these are nice!

I cant wait for some Drone armies for the Penguins.

How did the game 'look and feel'?

Did the rules seem... 'deep' enough?

Just curious!

Fair enough. But it seems fairly popular for most others.

Warmachine became GW's greatest contender with a heavily steam-punk flavoured fantasy setting (or heavily fantasy-flavoured steampunk setting?).

Forgeworld went almost full-steampunk with some of their Heresy-Era Marine MK variants. Even GW stuffed a steampowered chaplain into their DV box and added a heavy helping of wyrd science to their latest Necron incarnation. From Horror-Victorian-Steampunkt of Malifaux or "Diesel-Punk" Dust, all the way to smaller entries like Catalyst Games' Steampunk Skyship Leviathans, the genre seems to be quite alive, popular and kicking.

So I suspect it'll be around for some time.

Aplogies for resurrecting an old thread but with the release date for this game approaching more images are being placed on the Legions website:

Flying Samurai biker anyone?

Int briefings for American and Prussian forces.

And..with me being staunchly British ...the quintessential old fellow (probably with gout) in a mechanised, armoured bathchair AND A BLUNDERBUSS

http://www.spartangames.co.uk/big-sam

My Praetorians are getting some re-inforcements.

I must have that bathchair warrior

He looks so much fun


Automatically Appended Next Post:

Ooh, these I like:

I think I may have to get into this, and I was doing so well.

Will pick up the a couple of this when they release most likely I will use for another game but I like the design.

IF there's a gaming group in my area that plays this, I'll be in trouble!
