I have some Bushido minis too, but never played it. I might pick up the 2 player starter and try and convince some friends to try it.

The new rules are interesting - but the sculpts are (IMHO) very poor/uninspiring - and also seem smallish.

I have collected samurai miniatures since 1994 (when I started The Samurai Miniatures Page) and now own several hundred different sculpts from various manufacturers and these lacks character - probably due to them being designed on a computer by someone lacking the skill to make them dynamic and with character. Nice details but looking more like statues than people.

Also I despise ”realistic proportions”, preferring heroic scale with exaggerated heads, etc.

Bushido is great. Probably my favorite Japanese line along with Kensai. Rules are heavily influenced by Confrontation without being just a knockoff. It's a fun game.

I wish My project quo wasn't as full as it was. I'd be all over this one.



At Games Workshop, we believe that how you behave does matter. We believe this so strongly that we have written it down in the Games Workshop Book. There is a section in the book where we talk about the values we expect all staff to demonstrate in their working lives. These values are Lawyers, Guns and Money.

Anyone know what the actual miniatures are in the 2-player Risen Sun starter set?

I've looked and...I can't tell!

Found these on reddit, the cards for the Ito Clan side, which tells you the names of them. Not sure about the Ryu Prefecture side though.

Spoiler:



Automatically Appended Next Post:
There’s also new starters for each faction coming, the first 5 with this wave and the remainders the wave after. The Minimoto one is the same as the current one (it only came out last year) while some are all new minis (Savage Wave) the others are a mix of old and new. The new minis in them will be available separately at some point, if you already own the old minis with them in the starter.

Ito Clan (basically snake samurai/cultists):
Spoiler:



Minimoto Clan (the bear clan, strong and armoured but slow):
Spoiler:



Prefecture of Ryu (main power, generalists, samurai etc):
Spoiler:



Savage Wave (bakemon, which are those goblin things, and Oni - the monster faction basically):
Spoiler:



And Temple of Ro-Kan (monks and humanoid animals):
Spoiler:



The other factions are the Cult of Yurai (necromancers, zombies, spirits, yokai etc); Jung Pirates (pirates, as the name suggests, with some having a Davey Jones from Pirates of the Caribbean vibe, human/shark hybrids, human/crab hybrids); Silvermoon Syndicate (a crime syndicate, with quite a few Buto, which are basically massive strong humans); Tengu Descension (a mixture of mountain tribesmen, and birdmen samurai); and the Shadow Wind Clan (ninjas).

Edit: spoilered big pictures.

Thanks for that!

I also guess I wasn't clear!

The new 2-player starter set is listed as containing 6 miniatures.

Do we know what these six miniatures are?

They’re the 6 in the picture under the box art in the OP (3 Prefecture of Ryu, the dragon logo, and 3 Ito Clan, the snake).

Cool. This game has been on my radar for a while. I’ll keep an eye on the new starters.

I know, its a curse of the new media besides no talent will always result in bland minis.

The computer generated scults are just taking to much of the industry and classic sculpting getting a bit of a seat back.

Ha!

Now that you mention it - it is obvious!



Thank you!

Will all the old miniatures be getting 'new' Risen Sun cards too?

The bonus figures are if you purchase the new rulebook as well.

Of course the bonus figures are available separately if that's all you're after. I'll probably grab the oni with all the sake bottles.

I quite like the Bushido line. I've painted more Bushido figures than I have Kensei models. Take that for whatever it means...

kendoka I like more realistic proportions so Personal teste I think.
Some older models was screaming for update, like "Grey Pilgrim". New ones are quite cool for me.
When I paint my older Ito and Cult starters,I will grab some new minis. Now just book, cards and promos.

New starter sets up for preorder, released on the 4th November.

Descension:



Jung Pirates:



Cult of Yurei:



Silvermoon Syndicate:



I really like the Descension and particularly the Cult models. I wish they’d done more new sculpts for the Silvermoon box, the 4 older sculpts look a bit dated compared to the new stuff imo.

They’re metal. I’m probably going to order the Yurei, the new models are awesome and I’ve always liked the Pennangalan.

Kind of sad, the new Tengu aren't grabbing my attention like I thought they would. Still need to give this game a try sometime though.

Good thing the older Tengu are still compatible and already update for 2nd edition!

My gripe with the new Tengu are that they all have wings, but every single one of them has them folded up.

I won a box set of the goblins on Facebook, damn gorgeous models. This area is more Test of Honour crowd, but I'd like to try Bushido at some point.

Yes, a bit of a Necro, I suppose, but I've finally taken the plunge due to the impending release of the fantastic new Shiho starter set:

https://gctstudios.com/content/depth-look-shiho

Spoiler:


(EDIT - the new Heimin pictured above are *not* part of the new starter!)

and the new Heimin:
Spoiler:


Will definitely also be getting the new(er) Descension starter as well as another 'human' faction (Ryu or Ito - though to decide!) and most likely a few of the Savage Wave as well...

I've moved towards smaller boards and smaller forces skirmish games, and with this one being inspired/based off of Confrontation of old, it was a 'can no longer resist' situation.

Will most likely build up a table using Sarissa Precision's Japanese themed terrain too:

Good times, coming soon!

Better you necro it than me!

I'm ordering those Shiho as well. Really nice sculpts.

The Wolf Clan and the Minimoto have some nice human sculpts as well if that's what you're looking for.

I keep eyeing the Jung Pirates... but I really just don't want to have to create a community for a new game out of nothing (again).
