Paints, instructional DVDs on painting, or something along those lines perhaps?

More boutique figure lines?

Figures don't necessarily have to have a game attached to them.

Speaking of "boutique" really wish CMON would continue producing their resin versions of the Wrath of Kings models. They were crisp. Fragile (naturally) but beautiful. They look great unpainted. Shame.

If they are doing something hobby related, perhaps a proper carrying case for models, brushes, paints, etc. the battlefoam does not suit my needs. I jerry-rigged and art student case for m use but models flop around a bit too much, even with the hot glued foam.

The resin Wrath models are great. It would be really cool to see a collectors edition version of some of them come out, but If they're doing the full line in plastic now it may not be the direction they want. Who knows!

Yessir.

CMoN bought the property from Tales of War....2-3 years ago?

These look nice...very nice.

I hope this is the improved "PVC" ala WoK and, apparently, The Others!

Wonder if we'll see the Wrath figures before this one goes live. Would be wonderful to have those in hand as proof of concept for the material. The shots do look great, though.

This will be my Dreadfleet (read: pirate) game.

Could someone describe what a "MOBA Style" board game is? Have they laid this out clearly / is that their own description for it?

I know what the video games are, or at least, generally speaking, having seen a few friends that are into them... but I'm not sure what it means when applied to a board game. The same as Zombicide, I would imagine... or if it's different, what is different?

Its a lil diff.

Based on the gameplay I've played, it's like this:

-- Each team has a bunch of heroes that you can use that have different powers
-- On the board there are also creeps which have automated movement and attacking (not unlike Zombicide)
-- Heroes can purchase spells/abilities from a store with the money they get from killing creeps
-- Heroes can also use special abilities unique to that character and listed on their card using the money they get from creeps.
-- Game is played to a particular morale point total. Points are awarded for killing other heroes as well as taking out "base" points.

Honestly, when I played it, it felt VERY much like a MOBA. There were definitely some kinks to iron out, but I liked it a lot.

Thanks for clarifying, I really didn't get what they meant when they said MOBA. Never really seen a board game like this, not sure I am into pirates but its something to keep an eye on...

The Spectre has been revealed...

"BLACKOUT" BART JOINS THE WELLSPORT CREW!

For skirmish games, or any games where base to base contact may be necessary, I really dislike figures that overhang the base by that much. Great for a paint and display fig, crappy for use in a game.

Good news that this is a Boardgame then!

Is the figure going to overlap into another square/hex/board section?

Is the game any relation to the previous game the figures were used for? Been seeing these knock about for years, but never really looked into it,

Nope.

Great. I sure hope you keep up the detailed answers and explanations during the KS project.

When is this likely to lauch? I have a couple of these figures in metal I picked up a few years ago. Interested to see how they will turn out in plastic.

I quite like that model! I try not to pledge based on painted resin when the production models will be in PVC, though... would love to at least see a production sample.

I also try this. Sometimes unsuccessfully, but with my aim to trim the amount of ks that I get involved with, I've certainly been trying much harder recently.

But, yeah. Agree with tides that seeing a production sample, at least before the end of the campaign, would be great. And would see me much more likely to pledge.

Interested so far, however. Looks good.

I really wish CMON would produce there miniatures in resin as a separate purchase on their store. Not economical for somethings but would be nice to buy some of the Rum and Bones or Wrath of Kings. It's a lengthy process so I don't expect them to have everything in stock all the time. Perhaps a "print on demand/vote" and cycle though some of their models.

I'd like that too - sounds like a great idea actually!

No idea how practical it is...or isn't!

If I demand it, it's practical.

Very practical.


I demand burger and fries now.

Wrath of King started as Resin, so they have, or at least had, the moulds for it.
