Subject: Conquest! The new fantasy wargame from Para Bellum and Allessio Calvatore
Spire infiltrators look sick as feeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeth As much as I want Nords, the two player set is on my one to by list. It looks like a no-brainer to show it off to my buddies.
but DWEGHOM though! So it turns out that they are Para Bellums imagining of dwarves by the look of the artwork but ofcourse no use of the D word in the Interview..... created by the Dragons to recover the essence of War from deep within Eá so that they may unleash it upon the world.... :O

35mm is roughly Kingdom Death scale, which looks *great* for true scale minis.
So is it 15mm or 35mm?
Time of Legends: Joan of Arc is 15mm. This is supposed to be 35mm.
For mass battle, I like the look of 15mm better. Though 10mm is better yet again. A unit of 12 figures just doesn't look right compared to a unit of 50 or 100 or 200.
I have been waiting for this video. The look of the game was already drawing me in, but I need some rules and gameplay.

the above Lets Play has the basics there. Command stack and activation order, the 2 action mechanic (fighting then charging! eh?) and ofc the Offside rule.
Agreed that the unit cards are only really useful once they are flipped and activated... partial win/fail XD may be worth having a quick reference too.
The next BoW video is going to be a full battle report, which should reveal more and tie together what we already know
Well this video was enough to make put me at the "unless something bad happens I'm getting it" stage.
I love the design of the spire stuff, and the rules seem pretty good from my limited viewing.
Looking forward to the next video.

Now I wonder what they will propose for the support of the player community...no matter the game, if you are the only player in your town, it will end in a sad way.
Well @Sarouan I posed that exact post to Para Bellum as a question asking what their future plans for community support would entale...
They made it clear that they want staff in every country running events and it would be nice to have community volunteers make up a % of that. Ofc much of this is dependent on market reactions and will be solidified in the first year of release but as a side note: I have just been sent (completely by suprise may I add) a two player starter set and additionally, a unit of Steel Legion and Brute Drones! And I will be conducting Demo days around the South of the UK as soon as they are prepared

Fantastic! I can hardly wait to see what you do with the starter and units.
