I know that I've seen it, but can anyone point me to the Black Flash rules?

edit: got one!

Holy gak. Knight models actually spoke to me. Bad guys are coming. FINALLY

Hi all just letting you all know but since the unbound FB group got deleted, there is another group now online which is totally independent if anyone was interested:

Where?

And, any idea of who we should be expecting?

Facebook


Oh and there are a few unofficial groups for the games

https://m.facebook.com/groups/523592334432001/#!/profile.php?id=1114933948539058

Since the official ones are awful

Just to keep folks updated, that's my Flash/Arrow book, plus Gambit (And my 2 Deadshots, d'oh again), turned up from Wayland Games, shipped to the UK by free delivery.

The f&*£ Wayland games delivering before anyone else. The world has gone to hell in a hand basket. Why 2 deadshots?

LOL...try getting this game in the U.S.
we don't even have the April releases yet...

Because I am a very, very, very dumb Compel who doesn't know how to double check a shopping basket before pressing "Order."

On that note, anyone got a few Qs? Since I don't think many dakkaites have it yet.

So I was cruising Tabletop Fix and saw the Starfire mini.....

Are they going to do all the "Teen Titans" ?

I would love to get them for my kids and paint them up.

I don't know if they'll do *all* the Teen Titans, but there's definitely a list of them in the book for squad building purposes. This includes Wonder Girl, Superboy and Supergirl.

Right now, though, the released models include.

Nightwing, Cyborg, Damien Wayne, Kid Flash, Jason Todd, Ravager, Tim Drake, Roy Harper and Starfire.

So, yeah, come to think of it, that's a pretty substantial list of things done already...

New chars for Flash and Arrow teams?

Nothing specifically noted, that I can tell.

Green Arrow crews have an updated equipment list.

Flash does not get a crew. Flash is only now allowed in the game, with a whole new set of rules for the super fast characters like himself, but he must be taken in a Batman crew. Kid Flash is also set to be released; he can be used with Batman, Green Arrow, Law Forces, or Teen Titans.

Depends on which version you're looking for. There is a good, long list of Teen Titans, many of which are not yet released models. Curiously absent from the Teen Titans list is Beast Boy though.

I figure the next book, aside from Constantine & magic, could include a JLA under the team rules.

We already have Bats, Arrow, Flash, Cyborg and the Hawks which is a strong team as it is.

Really just need Martian Manhunter, Wonder Woman, a Lantern and Supes (ugh) for the traditional roster.
Tying it to legend points could limit it from being too horribly overmatched compared to Dent & some thugs.. maybe.

And if Rebirth brings back the retired geezer version of the JSA that could work out too

Honestly, I'd love to see those models, but they definitely bit better in the presumably forthcoming DC equivalent of the hero-focused Marvel game, I think we've got the nes that work in BMG but the others really wouldn't. Lantern would work much better under the other system's more interactive rule, while WW, MM and Supes are just to powerful (Superboy is fine as he only has half the powers and not the particularly nasty ones like flight or heat vision, Supergirl I'm a bit more iffy on including actually, she's functionally equivalent to Supes really).

Superman himself would either have to be horrifically depowered or game-breakingly expensive and only slightly depowered. /Cyborg works as his powers boil down to being tough and having a big gun, Flash works as sure, he can Run Real Fast but if a stray bullet catches him or you can land a hit with someone like Bane or Ra's, he's hurting from it and much less of a threat. Supes/WW/MM on the other hand would be able to be anywhere on the board they liked, be dishing out 3 Damage per hit on Strength 2+, impervious to any kind of damage, and able to drop most enemies in a single round... It just doesn't work, I don't think.

Perhaps the N52 version of the JLA (as opposed to the JL) could work, they're significantly less powerful/complicated. Arrow, Hawkman, Katana, Catwoman we already have, Vibe would be easy enough to add... MM, Stargirl and Guy Gardener GL might be harder to put in, but you'd defintely have enough for a team there.

eh...Km needs to spend this year working on it's infrastructure and Distribution...they can't support the games they already have...

Anyone got june releases so far? Some folks on the facebook page already have junes releases

the book is now for sale at FRPgames for those of us in the U.S.

The facebook group just revealed a revised card for Captain America.

Hahaha xD

Sons of Batman with Carrie Robin.

And the pictures.



I dunno, I think I'll give it a skip, I'm always a bit more inclined to the idea of Batman helping out a bunch of police than "The Dark Knight Returns" concept of the Sons of Batman.

Think I threw up in my mouth. Horrible models, bad release

Yea, I need a Beast Boy mini, stat.

I was just saying the other day that a Carrie/Sons of Batman set would make a nice release, but that... pass, I think. Doesn't really suit or evoke the grim, gritty, rough look The Dark Knight Returns is famous for, they look more like BTAS style minis really. Shame, as I really wanted Carrie so I had the full house of Robins. Might have to see about converting one now, and just use those rules.

I mean, I don't love the look of it. But the look is clearly very close to that of the original work. Just like the Animated Series models so far.

I do like more options for Batman henchmen though.

Apparently the next releases are:

Jean Grey
Emma Frost
Brotherhood of Mutants

Joker and Robotic Dolls
Grodd
Frank Miller Green Arrow.

I would be surprised anytime soon. He's not listed on the teen titans page. Though, they do make surprises quite often.

I'm going to be a little disappointed if Grodd is a single blister and not a band. Though, I'm also surprised by the idea of three big blisters in one month (sons of batman, joker bots, and maybe Grodd).

Hmm, massive expansion for Mutants (my chosen Marvel faction) and Grodd... this might add a good chunk to the wishlist if those are all good.

Grodd being a crew to himself, I'd be surprised if he's released solo, I'm hoping for a crew set, maybe 3 models rather than 4 as I imagine the Apes will be rather beefy models.

Did we really need another Joker? I'm wondering what style this new one will be in, Dark Knight Returns maybe?

So, Grodd is being reported as a started set. Good news there.

And the Hulk is being added to the Marvel releases.

Enjoy!
