Only Henchmen can have equipment, so the Joker & Harley can't choose clown paint.

Also the shotgun is really odd. It doesent use the spray template. It can shoot up to 40cm away but just on one person. Atleast this clown pack you can benifit from buying multipuls.

You still don't really benefit from buying multiples of this pack as the Henchmen trait isn't starred * which means these guys are still unique. You can only field them once in your gang.

Thank you for setting it straight! Wish they sold singles out of the starter pack so that you can have more clowns.

I think the only non unique joker thug so far is Clown, the 15pt guy with the knife.

Hey guys just a quick heads up on three new minis. I received my order sheet today and they are the same price as the others. If your a member pm me for pre-order instructions.

When will the unwashed masses be able to order the new stuff from you?

We will be ordering later this month. Members can preorder whenever.

In the latest game now that we have more minis, it was Joker, Harley, Chainclown, and Batclown VS Batman and Catwoman.

Ganging up on someone and having distract seems almost too good. It makes since, but it makes batman look like a wuss. Distract and 2 on 1 puts his DEF at a 3. Crazy Batclown then can get rerolls to hit needing 3s and 3s to wound batman.

!

as has been said only henchmen can have upgrades but also the gang you listed doesnt have any funding..so you cannot buy any clown paintings.

as for ganging up... yeah it can be rough but most characters do better adopting a hit and run policy.

Funding was confusing at first but it is actually " A band can not spend more then 500$ per 150 rep" Funding is just a way to "balance" lists so you couldnt in a small game load up with machine gun guys or something. Just like a salary cap for sports

thats what i thought at first.. but i think it means that if you have funding you can only speend 500 per 150 rep...

otherwise penguins 'lord of business' rule is pointless.. also penguin gang brings 1100 funding to the table.. if you were to add this 'free' 500 per 150 rep on then they would have in excess of 1600 funding..more than they could possibly spend...

also if both players get 500 funding then that would not sort out balance.

I think you are confused by the funding trait on the stat cards. This is a cost not a bonus. Penguin needs lord of business so that he can field the machine gun guy (emperor penguin?) As his funding cost is $600. $100 over the $500 allowed at 150 reputation. Hope that makes sense to you.

can someone link me a UK seller for these models

Guys - this thread here:

http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/508514.page

for rules questions.

This thread 'here' is for News and Rumors concerning the Batman Miniatures game.

Thanks!

Good news! You can now look at anyone character card on Knight Models site. CLick on the model and there is a "Download Character Card Option"

That is good news - and thanks for the heads up!

I just D/L'd them all... good times!

For those of you that have the actual cards: how big are they. From the PDF downloads they're clearly larger than a standard playing card size. Also, is there anything on the back?

they are kinda big..there is a space on the back that says 'notes'

Newer models have a Notes section you can write on the back as boy wonder said. As for size, they are just shy of 8 inches top to bottom and almost 3.5 across. Decent sized. Only and best way to protect them seems to be getting them laminated.

I find it interesting that the Jokers single henchmen he can take multis of is the knife guy, while penguins crew can take the shield guy AND his 2 figure clamp pack is worth getting a few of.

Man, I wish it was In knight models wheelhouse to do a multipart plastic kit of generic henchmen. That would be the gak.

Coming soon. New gangs 2 face & Ivy, New sidekicks Mr hammer, sickle, batgirl, free agents hush zsasz. More cops & SWAT, league of shadows Tiger guards.

That is a VERY nice list of 'coming soons'!

I knew Two Face and his Gang would be on the horizon... can't wait!

They need to hurry up with the Ra's al Ghul figure... and gang!

HUSH!!!

At first I thought you were telling me to shut up!

But yes, I'm looking forward to seeing HUSH as a model too!

Looking forward to seeing Ivy.

Hopefully Riddler won't be much longer.

Sounds good. Not knowing any DC characters outside of Batman does make some of the recently released models a bit weird for me. I've worked out all of the above from the games/films apart from Mr Hammer, whos he anyone?

I wonder if we will get Superman and Wonder Woman.

I'm also crossing fingers for Marvel characters if they have the license still.

Thanks Cyporiean I remember him from the game now

I know it's unlikely, but I so hope Quinn and Ivy can team up.

And Catwoman. :3

I really hope Superman and Wonderwoman stay out. Right now the games very balanced and they would just throw it off because they wouldnt be.

Pretty sure that we won't be seeing any superman/wonderwoman models for this game as that would spawn so many more possibilities that it would get out of hand!

Fingers crossed for Abuse.
