Having a fixed character really helped make the Witcher games as strong as they are narratively. Playing as a guy with a personality instead of a self insertion husk has so much more flavor. So excited about them selling the Shadow Wars Armageddon rules separately. I was a little bummed that other local players signed up to give GW money before I could.

The Bee posted:get more market share https://icv2.com/articles/markets/view/36971/top-5-non-collectible-miniature-games-fall-2016 Age of Sigmar is still the 4th biggest game, and only X-Wing and Warmachine are owned by another company. Even as bad as Age of Sigmar is, even games I think are great like Infinity and KoW can't beat it. Most gaming companies are insects to GW.

The Bee posted:Huh, interesting figures! Although I think counting Warmahordes as two identities is a bit of a misnomer. Is there a numbered list so I can see if Warnahordes net beats out 40k too? I am pretty sure they would be bigger than AoS for sure. Before X-Wing Warmachine was always #2, but I doubt it and hordes together are bigger than 40k. I have been outside of that industry for a while so it may have changed.

Wow. That is pretty surprising! Star Wars gonna Star Wars though. The Star Trek X-Wing is a real shocker though. No one ever played that locally, and at least Armada did pretty well except for pricing all the X-Wing players out. FFG have a brutal business model. I just couldn't handle X-Wing after they made all the ships I actually wanted. gently caress buying a big dumb ship for one card.

I think the biggest thing Mantic did wrong was rely to heavily on Kickstarter. At my FLGS all the people who would even consider trying out an Unknown Game from a company that made GW knock offs minis backed the Kickstarter because of sweet savings. So obviously the store doesn't carry any because the player base has what they need, and is willing to buy online to cut out local small business. So no games are played in the store, and no interest is generated. So the game just fades away.

NTRabbit posted:Catch 22; without Kickstarter Kings of War as it is now doesn't exist, and remains a booklet game with mostly metal minis for half the armies at best, but without the large savings and stretch goal freebies enough gamers won't throw enough money at it to make it happen. Oh absolutely. I actually really like what Mantic is doing, and I certainly don't blame them for going back to the well to take all risk out of their business. It is just that no store in their right mind would carry the product line. It is not nearly as bad as the Kickstarted board game craze. I wish my local store carried the Mantic Necromunda terrain. That stuff is ace.

PrinnySquadron posted:IIRC, They've said they acquired L5R for more than just the card game, but who knows if that just means "and also an RPG" L5R has been my main roleplaying game since it's 1st edition, and I can't wait for a new edition by someone else. I liked the recent 4th edition bunches, but the math was always really wonky. A whole new system might be just the thing. Anything would be better than 2nd though.

Soulfucker posted:However, I don't understand why nuGW felt it was necessary to justify them with new cringeworthy background material instead of simply going "here's truescale marines, lol" Yeah. The background for them is so dumb. They even could have done interesting stuff with old Marines getting mad about being replaced, or having the Bigmarines basically being flesh robots that need regular Marine officers to lead them. But no. Being able to guzzle that sweet, sweet geneseed and grow big and strong really takes away a lot of potential interesting storylines.
