Rogue Stars: Playing Area

Here is a possible set up for Rogue Stars, its on a 2' board which needs some work, will be painting it grey tomorrow and adding stones and some tiled areas.


I have 3 more of these boards making a 4' square area in total.




I have loads of other terrain which I will show case later so I can achieve other settings.



I also have other boards I can use as bases to create a different feel.

Frostgrave: Last Nights Club Game


Ian played an intro game with Dave over at the WWarriors last night, I was drawing a KOW game on another table. Thought I would take a few pictures of the game as it looked rather nice. 



Dave's Westwind models, very nice. 



Highlight was Dave shooting the legs out from under Ian's Wizard!




Then a little later Ian's warhound killed Daves Wizard just before it in turn was slaughtered.




They had a great game, Dave recognising the benefits of ganging up on opponents.


They had a great game and Dave is keen to play again, always good :-)

Rogue Stars: Book Arrived Today

My Rogue Stars book and miniature arrived today, very impressed that I got it so quickly. new the model would be excellent as the whole range is looking fantastic.




Been reading through the introduction and activation parts of the book, as well as flicking through to see the great art work and photo's of miniatures. All looks very interesting at the moment. 

Activation seems quite different: if I'm reading it right, you can choose to try to get up to 3 actions for a model, each one has to be tested for, a Target Number has to be beaten, the nice twist is that any fails give your opposition a chance to react. So if you throw 2 dice: to run then hide, and fail one the opposition could shoot at you as you run. 

Seems to be a lot of modifiers, but with only 4-6 minitures in play that's OK.

Looking forward to creating my crew and  a background for them, then playing a game down at the club.
