What I think is interesting is that despite being the TV supplement there's no TV huntress or canary there. Oh, and Strix for BoP!

I'm hoping with an entire book, we'll see a fair expansion of models. I know it doesn't say anything about it, but Lexcorp is a part of the book, too. So, yeah, hopefully we'll see a more expanded TV DC Universe. Even more Gotham characters perhaps?

Another teaser pic for the Batman Miniature Game expansion book. The vehicle rules will be included!

Which vehicles would you like to see added?



Also, note the knife/shield Scarecrow Henchman about to be run over in the lower left of the pic.

The Arrowcar :-)

I am *much* more excited about getting rules for my swat Van then anything else! But, also, jokermobile

Is the board even big enough to really accommodate vehicles?

Hell yeah!

They aren't going to show everything are they? I imagine there will be a fair few surprises yet to come

In theory it shouldn't be too bad, and the board size could always be increased for the larger game types that include the vehicles. That, or there could be some mechanics for exiting the board and coming back on, as per 40k's flyers. I'm interested to see what we get, Batmobiles are a given, probably the SWAT van, maybe one of the smaller tanks/drones from Arkham Knight... Kind of want motorbikes for Arrow/Arsenal/Nightwing/Batgirl as they tend to use them pretty frequently, and there could be some awesome awesome models if the Batpod is anything to go by.

Definitely want to see more TV-version models, particularly Sara-Canary, Roy Arsenal with the hood, Thea Speedy, Merlyn, maybe new Slade Wilson (Deathstroke crew too much to hope for? )

My own personal wishlist:

Diggle (Sidekick, Arrow. Free Agent - Suicide Squad)
White Canary (Free Agent, Arrow, Law, League, Legends (One can hope...))
Merlyn (Leader, League)

Most of the Flash villains would make great free agents.

Deathstroke gang
Summer Glau, Brother Blood as sidekicks
Mirakuru soldiers as elite infantry
Iron Heights criminals as normal infantry

Damien Darhk gang.
'The Ghosts' as soldiers
Memory fail on what sidekicks could there be.

Constantine free agent.

Oh yeah, somehow forgot Constantine. We absolutely need him.

Might be an idea to take the wishlisting/speculation down to the general thread before we all get too carried away and derail the actual news thread. I could probably go for hours just on Flash/Arrow mini wishlists, but this probably isn't the best place.

My wishlist for a new batman book is consolidated statlines so that they can all be listed in the book plus a blank card that can be copied and filled out for gaming purposes. Cards with minis are nice but it ties their hands when making errata. Plus a lot of miniatures come with crummy older designed cards.

Another new image for the new book. No pre-order date yet.

That does look a lot like Grodd though.

Oh my Grodd, I need a Gorilla City gang pronto! Very nice minis at first glance, and should be very different to anything currently in the game both rules-wise and in model terms.

I prefer the WarmaHordes and Malifaux style of "the miniatures have cards, but it's also in the book". It's basically the best of both worlds.

I just saw Batman vs Superman yesterday!

I like the overall Dark Knight feel of the movie, maybe a bit bombastic in the end but still very nice!

Anyway with the overall switch too stronger opponents (vehicles etc) I would really like to see a Batman in "Supierbuster" Power Armour!

What do you think?

I think I'll be very disappointed if we don't get an armoured Batman in the next few months! Though I can see them waiting until they do the DC equivalent of the Marvel game, so they have a 'new' Batman to release with that rather than repacking a BMG one.

Yeah, I think Armoured Batman would belong in a superhero based game.

Flash card teased (pic via ToaTS as usual)



Looks interesting, I was expecting him to cost a lot more but those stats seem fair and I'm intrigued to see what these Speed Force counters/powers are (I'm guessing a separate pool of action points for the folks who run real fast). Sightly annoyed that he's not got Affiliate/Affinity Green Arrow, but this is the N52 Flash so maybe we'll get a CW version for the Arrow crew...

On the other hand, 400 Rep gets you AK Bats, Cyborg and Flash, so go Justice League!

Flash is really cheap compared with how I thought he'd be. Also thought there would be a Flash crew.

Remember this is New 52 comic flash. We can expect at least one other version.

Sorry no pic as I'm on my phone, but Animated Series Green Arrow was just announced. Looks good for the points. And hints at Animated Black Canary.

here ya go

I'm not gonna lie, I'm feeling kinda unsure about that one...

Not one for me to buy, I think.

I didn't see that show but it reminds me a *lot* of the batman animated series that they seem to be working from. Probably going to be one of those things you'd get out of nostalgia if you liked the show more than for its actual quality. It does seem to have more or less nailed the art style I remember from the batman show.

Green Arrow wasn't in Batman: The Animated Series. This is probably a Justice League or Justice League: Unlimited version of him.

Personally, I really disliked the art style shift they did after season 3 of Batman: The Animated Series, when they renamed it to "The New Adventures of Batman And Robin."

To give you an idea. The Animated Catwoman model is from the first 3 seasons, whereas the Animated Batman model is from the 4th.

I think the Harley could be from either.

Ahhh. I had only seen a bit of the old batman. I was assuming GA had his own show then alongvthevsame lines based on what they were calling the knight models mini.

Guess it's not far off of the Justice league look either really.

I quite like that Green Arrow. He's pretty nice for the rep.

Hope to see some TV show models soon.

Green Arrow is in the new Batman: Brave and Bold series, but he's clean shaven in it and rocks a different outfit. And his Arrow Car is appropriately cheesy, much in the same vein as the toy shown above.

The new Batman: Brave and the Bold series ... that ended it's run 5 years ago.

And do they really only have Batman, Catwoman and Harley in the animated lineup so far? Seems weird we'd get Green Arrow before say the Joker, or Robin or whatnot. I really hope they flesh out the animated line with full gangs and stuff. I'd be so all over that. BTAS is very near and dear to my heart.
