Conquest has a good chance to capture the somewhat lacking 'ranked battle' market though too - if they can do it better/more interestingly than their distinguished competition, of course!

If they can make if feel like rank and file without having to actually paint up all the required number of rank and file units you'd actually need in a proper big game, then I'm in.

On the other hand I'll probably be in anyways and snatching up units for smaller skirmish sized stuff as it is.

I think what most people will find is that this game will very much *feel* like a true mass rank-n-file game without having to have 100+ models on either side.

The 'stands' help with this, but in reality the game design is really geared towards it. Thanks to the way deployment is handled, there is more reason for a player to have multiple types of units rather than just 2 or 3 of the same thing. For instance, if you had 3 'light' warbands (think men-at-arms), you couldn't deploy past your own reinforcement zone (table edge), but if you had a heavy Warband (think Knights) further up the board, you could bring in light, medium or heavy reinforcement warbands on from any table edge as far up as your enabling heavy Warband.

That's just one example, mind you. There are others in the Rulebook, but I really feel like they put a lot of thought into this particular issue.

Basically I think that as long as we can get people who are into rank and file gaming to try this, they'll be hooked. My goal is to have a set painted up prior to release so I can try and get people excited about the games before it comes out!

Those Dweghom look amazing...

But that Nord is JAW DROPPING!!!

It's going to be hard to choose just one faction for Conquest. I like everything I see so far. I love a great deal of it too!!!

I know so little about this, but the models seem nice, and the story has some bite, so... Consider my interest piqued!

Interesting direction they've taken the dwarfs in. Techy and heavily armored but not as advanced as the Kharadron stuff.

Looks like two different golems based no those photos. Bodies seem similar. Perhaps a variant?

Still holding out for a reptile faction!

Pyro dwarfs for my first faction it seems. Now we just need confirmation that it will have a Canadian distributor

Oooh those Dweghom look nice with that paint scheme. I might get them if I don't like any of the future releases. I'm still holding out of the hinted at Dominion remnants and that Oriental inspired army.

Funnily enough it's that paint scheme that's spoiling them for me personally. Not the quality of the paint job, just the scheme and I'm not a huge fan of the more mechanical elements to the models we've seen. Strays too much into Warcraft style fantasy rather than the Heavy Metal Fantasy most of Conquest seems to offer.

Everything else though... God it's impressive. That Nord....

I just check it out. I'm guessing that is something connecting to one of the Horsemen or maybe an army under one of the Horsemen.

I really hope this game kicks off and it doesn't fall like Drop Zone Commander. The models and enthusiasm is too great for it to fail, and it would be a pity if it did.
