My group really doesn't do tournament, and after messing with 4th for a bit we feel 'sticky combat' just isn't fun. We're basically going back to 3rd's Waiver/Route stats.

The fix is pretty clean, but not perfect: just subtract 2 from the 4th ed nerve for waiver number. Fearless gets the old '-".

The nice part it is really feels like it frees up list building and all those (2) limits don't feel as rough, and support shooting feels 'right' again.

Anyone else added house rules for 4th?

I'm thinking of collecting a 10mm scale army for KoW, instead of the official 28mm scale.

1) They'd take up way less storage space. (My 28mm sci-fi minis are taking up enough space as is)

2) They should be faster to paint?

3) Buying minis would be cheaper - I do have an FDM printer but I don't enjoy having to wrestle with miniature STLs or the assembly/cleanup process post printing. I prefer to use it for terrain.

4) It would be playable on smaller tables.

On the other hand, one big question I have is, would I be able to find other players who play at this scale? At the very worst I'd just be solo wargaming, which I can live with, but I'd thought I'd try and see how large the community is.

If you collect 10mm armies for KoW, do you have opponents to play with?

Martin and Matthias, Basilea and Brothermark players in 3rd Edition, sit down to talk about the new Basilean army list in Fracture and if the update meets their expectations.

Lady Liberty is finally done. I started her 5 years ago but I dropped her and she shattered. After sitting in pieces in a box I decided last week to put her back together and paint her.
I had to use the only proper model for scale as she is quite big.

Painted up 5 regiments of Red Goblins using Shieldwolf Forest Goblins. This is for my Ogre Tea Party army so the forest goblins are the Sons of Liberty who dressed up as “Indians” during the irl Tea Party.

The Steppe-themed undead army I am working is coming together now with the release of the💀Undead Skeleton Warriors! Trying out a different look from the traditional style of undead.

If you want to check it out, you can grab your free STL on the Kickstarter page. They come with options for different helmets, weapons, and poses.

Thank you for looking!

With Fracture being released Menai and Matthias have a closer look in the new units, old units coming back, how they feel about the update and why it might get ugly.

Dm me if you are looking to sell your Kings of War Trident Realm Army...

I'm looking very hard to convert over from Warhammer to KoW. I'm not a fan of rules bloat and AoS spearhead is actually quite hard to teach my 11yo plus feels like a board game more than a fantasy battle. Also I love the idea of using my grey piles of plastic to make mini dioramas on bases like in KoW.

Is champions the right starting point? Looks like it to me but seems to be not supported anymore (don't care about that as I hate rules constantly being changed). Should I pick up the champions rules and go from there? How does it compare to KoW and ambush? I'm looking for a game to teach my kids on the dining table to use my large collection of cool minis and GW is killing me with rules, OPR just doesn't seem to be the answer.

I've just started with space weirdos for sci Fi skirmish cause of the dice mechanics (love it not all being d6s) instead of deadzone mainly due to owning terrain that would work with it and not requiring buying new terrain like deadzone would. But love the idea of having a rank and flank game to play with my way too many fantasy minis in the cupboard.

Basically - what's better for a hour long game with a kid that is something we can get into in the coming years- champions or ambush (really don't have more than an hour so full scale KoW seems like it would be an issue)

Thanks all.

I like KoW for allowing you to not have to have the exact number of miniatures to represent a unit of a given size.

However, given it's a fantasy game and the miniatures are potentially compatible with other wargames, would you want to keep the minis individual, or go all in to make them dedicated for KoW?

The new expansion book is released and Danny jumps in to talk about everything Nature. Together with Matthias they explore the new Army list, what changed, what stayed and what got better.
