Ok I have a short attention sp... OOH! Something shiny! What was I saying?
I know, I have a LOT of projects in the works... and some are actually being "completed." I am juggling ERA OF WAR!, CRITTER VALLEY, and trying to do some figures for the September Horde... (not to mention the stuff in my "real" life...), but what can I say, I am inspired!
Ok, Critter Valley fills the following voids: RPG, Western and AnthroFuzzy (no debates, please).
EoW! Fills my Sci-Fi and tank games...
Well, I have got to say that seeing Ken's miniatures, and Jose's Hordes (Nik, please feel free to add links for me) I am sold on 15mm figures.
Since I have never really considered any scale other than 25/28mm, I came up with this BRILLIANT idea. EoW! Is my Sci-Fi game... I need something for the one area I am missing...
Introducing WARDAGGER! It is a Fantasy Miniatures Game using 15mm figures. I litterally have THOUSANDS of miniatures (paper and plastic) to game with, but they are ALL Sci-Fi (my genre of choice), and all are 25/28mm (my scale of choice).
But after seeing the stuff pouring out of these guys, I plan on testing a Fantasy version of EoW!
The game really would be the same (only instead of technology-based vehicles, it would have magic-driven, steam-driven and/ or black powder powered items).
I am pretty sure that Dave Graffam does his models in both scales... and I KNOW PaperMakeiT's SHUFFLER let's you do stuff in this scale!
Can you imagine, a 4 inch dragon would be 20' long (scaled... no pun intended) at 25/28mm... but 40' at 15mm! Boy, am I excited.
Once I get this EoW playtest wrapped up, I will begin looking at a 15mm scaled version... using Fantasy (of course).
So, I will throw this blanket statement out there... if you have some Fantasy figures made at 15mm, send me a PM or email (it's on my profile) and we can discuss this further. I am NOT interested in links to free figures... this is OUR forum, and I want to use and post YOUR figures pictures.
As it turns out, if this goes forward, I will offer this game system for FREE! The Sci-fi version may be, too... who knows! I have big plans (read as: dreams)!
I am not saying that these figures will be the "actual" figures for the game, but if it ends up becoming a free download, why not!
Plus, it will show what a fun game I designed, and allow all kinds of interesting ideas.
I WILL say for the record, I will NOT be attempting to make 15mm figures! My rules will be generic enough to cover ANY figure that someone may make... now terrain is another story!
Thanks for your attention! (Great... as if I didn't have enou... OOH! Something shiny...)
