NEWS: Warmachine Events and new Pre-Orders - Steamforged Games

Hail Mighty Readers and Followers of the Luck Gods Rocks,

Steamforged Games as usual have dropped a ton of news the last couple of days for Warmachine .  Here's what they've had to say:

"Coming to pre-order next Tuesday, the Journeyman solo and Ramhead super heavy bring a stern backbone and raw power to any Kithguard army.

Not only are Ramheads tough to destroy, they hit like anvils wrapped in frying pans. Meanwhile, Journeymen are of the “lesser warcaster” variety. They may not be able to lead an army, but they can generate focus to allocate to the Ramhead and cast spells to help it hit even harder."  To read why you need to add these guys to your South Kriels Kithguard army please go here.

Wednesday was a real belter of a news day, here is the round up of what they had to say:

Tuesday 28th July you can watch Live on You Tube, Tuesday (July 28) they’ll be celebrating the release of Fane’s upcoming army box, Death’s Whisper, AND sharing the first look at gameplay for the next army box, Court of Shadows!  To see this live (or to watch after that day please go to this You Tube link here.

MINIATURE CONSTRUCTION: Warmachine: House Kayllss : The Final Hunt Command Cadre - Steamforged Games

Hail Mighty Readers and Followers of the Luck Gods Rocks,

Today I'm going to be doing something a little different.  Sadly my footage for Steamforged Games Warmachine: House Kayllss: The Final Hunt Command Cadre was corrupted so this time, you're sadly going to have to put up with my description of the sprues and how the product went together.  In future, we will ensure multiple recording devices so it won't happen again...

Packed in a high quality cardboard box, the three separate sprues, are all clearly labelled, packed into a resealable bag and accompanied by the perfect number of bases for the miniatures provided.  In addition to this, they also have a printed piece of paper with a QR code that takes you to downloadable instructions that you can use either on your PC or your phone on how to construct each figure.

Whilst this was a nice thing to do, it did feel like a bit of a waste of time printing it on its own piece of glossy paper, when it could have been printed onto the box or perhaps as a sticky label upon the resealable bag and saved the extra piece of paper, but that's just my own gripe.

Each miniature was clearly labelled with a letter corresponding to just the one piece, with each individual body part numbered and easy to lay out in the format the lead picture for that piece had so you could easily grab the correct piece you were looking for.  In addition to this you weren't looking for a huge number of items and the highly limited number just kept it all easy to find in one area of the sprue without having to play "Where's piece X" like you do with other companies.    The instructions were easy to follow and being able to blow up the high quality pictures kept it easy to see the order and exactly where each piece needed to be.

All round, the quality of the sculpt and the beautiful crafting of each feature for the various pieces is fabulous, it is a great set of miniatures to put together, easy to find each piece with their clear numbering and wasn't so many pieces as to make it a difficult piece of construction.  All round would definitely give these a very high rating for other hobbyists and of course with top notch printing, these will be a dream to paint too.  (Video to follow soon.)  I can't wait to get more mini's by Steamforged and hope that the larger pieces (like the accompanying warjacks/monsters) will be just as easy to do.

All the best,

ThunderMouser

BREAKING NEWS:  Para Bellum Games Conquest at Gen Con Reveals:

Para Bellum Wargames, the developer and publisher of the fantasy Regimental Miniature Wargame “Conquest: The Last Argument of Kings” and updated Skirmish system “Conquest: First Blood” releases a raft of new items!

GenCon will be the debut of three items in booth 3031!

The new Yoroni Oni Monstrous Cavalry brings a new look to the tables. These are cavalry units, sized in a new way that dominates the play. The perfect fusion of honor, power and ruthless force, an Oni Kishin bears different ritual weapons: unleashing the brutal impact of them with their ceremonial Yari as Raiu, the Storm; or as Kiba, Fang Horsemen, bearing an Odachi, symbolizing their hunger for challenge and glory. Demon brutes on equally ferocious “horses” makes this a must have item for Yoroni players. Look for the Raiu and Kishin on July 30th at GenCon and your favorite FLGS.

Balancing the Yoroni brutality with beauty, we bring forth the Sorcerer Kings Marid Artisan Series. Two different models, the Apsara and Shaytan, are stunning models for painting or playing. These are the expansion into the Water forces, enigmatic and reclusive, they are, however, not immune to the powers and efforts of the Water Sorcerers in enlisting their aid. When they arrive onto the battlefield, they seldom do so alone, suddenly appearing with their entire court to deal a decisive blow, enhanced by their spellcasting ability. This is an Artisan Series, which for Conquest indicates a resin model that has had exquisite sculpting, making the most of the full artistry that the original concept art launched. Available July 30th at GenCon and at FLGS worldwide.

And our GenCon Con Exclusive for summer fun is “Traveling Gillbury”! Part of our Murderous Fish Gnome army, this maintains their irreverent looks and comes with a fun “MFG” scenario game for additional play value. Fans can also use any of these in any casual game as an alternate model just for fun! The Traveling Gillbury makes sure gamers are not alone anymore as they play in the dirty world of Ea and head for the end of the round! Available during GenCon only at Booth 3031, and our E-Shop for that week. And only for that week.

More news as we get it,
