In other news...Warcry

[mattblowers]

My wife bought me the Warcry starter box and the Corvus Cabal for Christmas. What an awesome kit! I built and painted the terrain over the weekend and now I'm building the models. The models are excellent and a joy to build. With box sets I have a weird thing of making sure I paint everything before playing, otherwise I know I'm never coming back to it. Super excited to play the game. Definitely seems like a beer and pretzels type of game, which is probably what I need for a break from 40K since that is going all competitive for me lately.

On a related note, anyone playing MtG Arena? I've had tons of fun with it since beta. Mostly playing ranked.

In my opinion, Warcry is one of the best games GW have released in years. It's quick, easy to learn, very fun, and most importantly for me, the narrative system is great!

It's the perfect mix of everything I love about tabletop gaming!

By the way, my friend plays Corvus Cabal and they're quite fun. He likes trying to line up Birdman (on the stilts) for the flying elbow drop off the bell tower!

Yeah Warcry is pretty dope, but needs to be approached with a purely beer & pretzels mentality. Going hard breaks the game real fast (like Killteam Commanders). And don't put the new Warcry-only Chaos teams against the teams from the other factions, they are NOT created equal.

So...exactly like 40k then?

[acehilator]

No. There are 2.5 to 3 tiers to teams in Warcry. If a top tier team plays against a bottom tier team, you win the game while losing 0-1 models.

Even with added hyperbole, the state 40k is in is not THAT bad.

Why is this still here? There's a thread for this stuff.

[gigasnail]

So, 40k then.
