>What is /awg/?
A thread to talk about minis and games which fall between the cracks, or peoples' homebrew wargames.
The >>>/tg/hwg thread doesn't entertain fantasy (for good reason) and the other threads are locked to more specific games.
This thread isn't tied to a game, a publisher, or a genre, let's just talk about fun wargames. Any scale, any company, any miniatures.

>Examples of games that qualify.
A Song of Ice and Fire, Argatoria, Batman Miniature Game, Carnevale, Conquest: The Last Argument of Kings,
Deadzone, Dropfleet and Dropzone Commander, Freebooter's Fate, Frostgrave, Gaslands, Judge Dredd: I am the Law, Kings of War,
Maelstrom's Edge, Malifaux, Marvel Crisis Protocol, Masters of the Universe: Battleground, Moonstone,
Oathmark, RelicBlade, Rumbleslam, Stargrave, Sludge, Warcaster, Warmachine, Xenotactics...
...and anything else that doesn't necessarily have a dedicated thread.

>Examples of companies providing rules for alternative wargames.
Atomic Mass Games, Black Site Studios, CMON, Mantic, OnePageRules, Osprey, Para Bellum, TTCombat, Warlord Games and, many other publishers.

>Places to get minis; Updates to the minis list are welcome.

Either Warcraft or Resident Evil. I think Wacraft with its classes would make a fantastic skirmish game and if you wanted a larger war game. I'd also love a Resident evil game with all the various characters/biohazards as a skirmish game.

No, I think the whole "push wargaming into being about the interpersonal love quest between main characters" is actually a sticking point. I don't actually negativepost very much but that particular thing bothers me.

Reminds me of when the Gaslands writer was talking about wargames as just interacting oblique objects in a set environment, and that they could be extrapolated to anything.

This, for me, is a bad mentality. A thing, as Zizek would say, is defined by what it isn't as much as what it i s

>>93400074
The point I kept recurring to because I feel strongly about it is this recent push I keep seeing for wargames that aren't really about war. I think a non military wargame is just a game. I'm sticking to that point because it's so easy for games companies to raid your nostalgia and load you up with plastic beforre you realise you're playing the Sims, or a Euro game.

Tough one. I'd say Redwall, but Burrows & Badgers seems to have that down pretty well (minus the racial hate boners and the fact B&B has magic and guns).

I think a Powder Mage skirmish game could be fun. Different types of magic that work in different ways, dudes with muskets and shit fighting wizards high as fuck on black powder and amped up to 11.

Heroes of Might and Magic could also make a good one. Handful of factions, unique units, lends itself to a campaign system. I know they just did the board game for HOMM3, but a legit skirmish game would be fun.

You know what I would play the fuck out of? Skirmish game set in the Ravnica setting from Magic the Gathering. Pick a guild, duke it out in the streets of the city. It'd just have to be set before they buttfucked Ravnica with whatever the hell they did.

>>93396529
It plays pretty well. Feels very comic book with you being able to toss people and terrain around. Very scenario focused, which I appreciate, so just going for kills doesn't always work out. The fact you can mix and match anyone into a team together is fun, and by running themed teams you can get bonuses which is a nice touch. My only real issues are the price and the use of 100% proprietary stuff, so you can't just buy a handful of models and be able to play, you need the measuring tools and the special dice and crisis cards and the 70 different tokens. It does also feel like setting up the table can take way too long sometimes.

It is fun, though, and when my buddy and I get to play we always have a blast.

>>93397900
Warcraft could be cool, especially if they went with old school WC2 styles. But then you only have two factions, which makes it a little tough.

>>93398901
This would be great. I'd say Front Mission, also. I know Eisenfront is a thing (and good!), but I also know that's never going to be easy to get for reasonable costs here in the States.
>>
>>93398951
Depends on what you want. Batman is very subdued, getting shot will fuck guys up bad. Crisis Protocol, on the other hand, leans more into the over the top type action. In Batman you aren't throwing terrain pieces at each other, and everything feels, for lack of a better word, grittier.

But Batman does have the unfortunate pleasure of having had Knight Models randomly invalidate a giant fucking chunk of the pre 3rd edition model line for seemingly no fucking reason.

There was technically a book and some manga, so I want a Shin Megami Tensei game. Specifically in the vein of one of the more cyberpunky versions of the setting where humans are explicitly utilizing portable computers to summon and interact with demons and there's some other technology that integrates with it like Demonica armor. Summoning circles made with vector lines are just as good as anything else and hours of chanting sped up 100x and played through a speaker calls across the netherworld just the same as being done live by a human voice.
>>
>>93400245
I've been looking around and I'd probably use Oathmark for HoMM since you have the "buildings give access to units" thing for campaign play even if they're somewhat limited in unit types to fill the different towns. I'm not sure how easy it would be to homebrew in different buildings/units

I would be interested in recreating the Forge town

But the videogame was so brutal, they'd charge you to play the game and then you'd spend all day looking at areas that you can't explore unless you buy a specific skylander toy. If skylanders toys are easy to find now, it's only as a side-effect of the toys-as-microtransaction business model, and a skylanders tabletop game would be even more brutal.

Been brainstorming an alternative take on d20 system for my mecha game.

>3D system is what I call it to sound cool and important

>first die is representative of pilot expertise
>starts at d4 and goes up to d12 based on class passives
>second die is representative of mech parts/customization specialties
>also starts at d4 and goes up to d12
>third die is representative of miscellaneous advantages like surprise and strategic positions
>does not apply if there’s no advantages present but also goes up to d12

>add your d3 together and any +1s you may or may not have gotten to determine success of an action

I really really like the concept of the dice representing the different aspects of your character, and it would be very satisfying for players to roll it, but on the other hand, I worry that there’s too many moving parts with most actions having different dice values. Any opinions?

>i wann shoot a guy and i have X and Y pilot skills, A B and C mech parts that apply, and I’m also stealth and locked on which is counteracted by long range so im throwing d8/10/4
>now I want to dodge out of the way with D pilot skill, E and F mech parts and no advantage so I’m throwing d6/d8

Is it fair to just put the responsibility on tracking their dice values on the players? Is it fine assuming the player isn’t retarded? Because I DO believe that not every system has to be for everyone, as long as it’s ultimately fun.

d4-5-8-10-12 is the same amount of steps as 2+ to 6+ on a d6. If players can track d6 mods, tracking step-die steps shouldn't be that hard.

compared to first edition, Frostgrave second edition doesn't even bother with addressing gender other than something saying "men and women" when mentioning soldier types (ie "These rough, lawless places teem with men and women hoping to join a wizard and find riches in the ruins.")

What's the best wargame if I primarily care about fielding lots of cool terrain?
Narrative campaigns are cool too but the former is more important.
Mordheim? or something else?
>>
>>93416450

Define cool terrain. Infinity, batman, malifaux, they like terrain because breaking fire lines keeps things from turning into a shooting favored setup.

You can cram a bunch of terrain into a relic blade or bushido game, but those are kind of melee esque games so terrain is nice but its not critical.

Idk I feel like any game can use terrain, just depends on what kind of terrain you want to supply.
>>
>>93416450
Basically all gang level gang can do this more easily than the large scale. GW has several now, sci-fi and fantasy, and basically all the ones listed in the OP. I personally like the I am the Law game as you can field just about any style of terrain and it fits.
>>
>>93416483
>Define cool terrain.
Varied, affects gameplay to a large degree, there's a lot of it.
Basically I don't like bare MDF walls and want to play on a large diorama.

The only game I see where people do this normally is Mordheim so I was hoping for something similar.
>>
>>93416450
>if I primarily care about fielding lots of cool terrain?
Zone Raiders want a lot of terrain, including vertical; in fact, they're the only skirmish game i know that features wallrunning as a defined movement option.
>>
>>93416541
Carnevale has a a lot of neat acrobatic mechanics that allow people to jump around and do some cool stuff. That game would encourage you to not only build vertically, but if you really want to go hardcare you could make a base board using resin and making it look like water, and put terrain on top of it. Could even get creative with a saw and make it look like a bunch of sunken Venetian buildings. Besides jumping around and diving on people, you can use models to drown others, so you've got multiple layers of creativity to work with (water, streets, rooftops).
>>
>>93416450
Carnevale needs high density, climbable urban terrain and a canal water feature on every board. Verticality and swimming are core game features.

I really wanted a mounted undead standard bearer for my KoW undead army, but didn't want to buy the big army box just for him nor did I want to start collecting Mantic points.
So I made one out of the FireForge Living Dead knights box.

So how did I do on the Fireforge Living Dead knight conversion?
There is no left handed weapon so I had to improvise with clippers and hobby knife cutting with plastic glue.

It also came with two undead dogs so I might as well make some undead dog handlers too.
And besides the Reaper mini Kromray and the Dogs of War what other skeleton miniatures would work nicely as skeletons managing undead dogs?

All the plastics are from the Fireforge living dead knights kit.
I had to cut off the sword from a right hand and place it on the left shield holding arm to get it to work.
The pommel of the sword was actually the hardest part. I think I snipped it off a mace, but I do remember wedging it between the horse armor and the hand to make the annoying bit stay in place.
Or maybe it was just that I was using extra thin plastic cement.

I know we've been a bit quiet on the news front these past couple of weeks, but just to reassure you we are still working, this is what's planned.
In the next week or so we'll announce the pre-orders for the new Orc Heavy Infantry for Oathmark, both the plastic box set and metal characters. Michael Anderson is also well underway with the Elf Heavy Infantry next.
Frostgrave, Cultists III are on the way to the tool makers, the next plastic box set. We're a way off showing you pictures but we will ASAP.
Stargrave. Bobby Jackson is 1/2 way through a secret plastic box set which we'll release next year with the next supplement from Joseph McCullough.
The Silver Bayonet. Mike Owen has finished a new French and British Unit, this time dressed for Egypt, and we start on the figures for the new Supplement Italy this week.
Muskets & Tomahawks. We're finishing off the Germans for the AWI, and a new set of British Rangers for AWI as well.
We've just received a box of new figures from Bob Murch, so we'll be announcing the new Pulp figures this month.
Crusader Miniatures continue with their Boxer Rebellion range, look out for the Russians next.
Artizan Design has more Renaissance coming, and a new Commando Raid WWII range which has an exciting twist to it, more news later.
Fans of Copplestone Castings 15mm Barbarica range may be cheering loud soon. Mr Copplestone hasn't added to the range, but we'll have something excellent to show you very soon.

Have only done some cursory digging. Dorgive me if I get some details wrong, but:

Armies will be larger with sub commands as standard, like 36 ap
The troop types from dba and hott will both be in place, so you will be able to take Cav, Pikes and Psiloi for example alongside Clerics, Dragons and so on.
I THINK that the clarifications from 10 years of testing DBA 3.0 mean that something akin to the Fast/Solid sub types will be coming over, I think Lurkers they either tried to fix or are just plain out (maybe Aux or Ps have been tweaked).
Generally when there is some overlap like Elephants and Behemoths they are keeping both which is honestly great, it's not like the extra table entries will bloat the game.
Shooters I think will get 2 types, Warbows and Shooters like before for higher points Wunderwaffen Elven bowmen and GIs with Garands.

That's all I can 'member. Thoughts? I hope I can just grab itprint on demand. DbX is vey much my thing

on a surface level this sounds like it makes sense until you realize that all of the specific use cases you mention already also have specific minis.
Anything from Noir, Gangsters, Wild West and Cyberpunk has models specific for that. Just use those and do your head and weapon swaps on those.
If you need plastic you could look into stuff like the Wargames Atlantic partisan fighers.

Eat a big bag of shit. Unicorn is a love letter to the series. The Torrington battle might be the best mecha combat ever animated. Honestly, only Full Frontal isn't great. And be before you complain about ghosts or anything spiritual, that's been part of Gundam since day 1.

Judge Fire should be good.

>>93424252
Funnily enough they accidentally showed off Judge Fargo without a helmet and then retroactively removed it by giving him the same "never see his face" treatment that Dredd typically gets

>>93424785
I always imagined Dredd would look older than he did just because if his crazy lifestyle of 16 hours in the street, sleep for 10 minutes, repeat.

The timeline of the comic moves in real time, ofc he'd look younger back then.

Torrington is good - the battles in general are superb, but the rest of fanfiction-tier trash writing that tries to retcon Gundam from the very root to make Zeon and the Zabi family not look like genocidal maniacs.

No it doesn't? Zeon from the peoples' perspective, has always been sympathetic. The Zabi family was definitely trying to create a proper dictatorship, and definitely needed to be torn down. Even Mineva openly agrees with this. Other people see political power in her, and there's definitely a unifying symbol in her name. This is also how real world politics work. It's messy. Never once is there any real justification for the Zabi family. What they do explore is more of the spacenoids actual situation leading up to the war. Which again, has always been part of Gundam. Honestly, the only sympathetic Zabi from the main family is Dozel, but only really after Origin expanded his character. I suggest watching Unicorn again. It definitely does not paint Zeon, or the Federation in a good light, same as every other UC story. It instead engaged with the people and their motivations.
>>
>>93426581
Colony drop should have killed all of their sympathy the moment it happened. Why the absolute fuck would anyone else in space even let Zeon approach their position if they had any ability to prevent it?
>>
>>93426581
>Zeon from the peoples' perspective, has always been sympathetic.
Zeon attacked, invaded and gassed allied colonies - Sides 1, 2 and 4, before dropping them on Earth. Zeon/Neo Zeon/Neo-Neo Zeon were dropping shit with abandon up to CCA with Axis.. They are well known for the Three-Second Warning in universe and the wanton use of WMDs prior to invading Earth.

The Zabi family are typical nobles who wanted power and used a bullshit cause - in this case "Spacenoid independence" and corrupting the well-meaning ideologies of Contolism, Ereism and Sideism.
>>
>>93426680
Without context this look bad...
>>
>>93426697
There's no context where wantonly gassing the people you claim to be championing and then dropping their corpses onto earth looks good.

Most Sides probably didn't have the ability to stop the Zeeks from approaching if they wanted to. The EFSF was utterly gutted at Loum and Zeon had space supremacy until the Federation counterattack after Operation Odessa.
>>
>>93426680
I'm not saying you're wrong. I'm saying that it's more complicated. Just look at real world examples. I should have passed what I meant better. Not that the people are sympathetic to Zeon, but that of course the rank and file regular citizens of Zeon are sympathetic. They fought for their own rights, in a conflict that had been escalating for decades. Both sides of the war lose half their respective populations before the original series even starts. Also, I openly agrees about the Zabi's in my response, so I'm not sure why that bears repeating. Mineva is seen as a symbol by the people, and basically the only source of how or stability from the section of occupied space furthest from the Earth. For most of the soldiers, they were suffering, found a purpose that might earn them rights, and fought. Some of them have been fighting for the entire time. These are people that feel that they've been pushed to the brink, and are fighting back. Plenty have lost absolutely everything except for the cause. Obviously fuck the Zabi family. No one even attempted to argue against that. Not here, or in Unicorn. But it means something that even toward the end of the original series, the White Base crew has an open conversation about how the EF isn't good.

>>93426680

EVERYBODY invaded and gassed colonies in the opening of that war. You don't kill off what was it? 90% of the human race in a few months when it's only one side. Especially one with the population and manufacturing base of Nigeria but in Space. It's just the Feds won, so nobody talks about all of THEIR warcrimes.

That said, by and large Zeon were the ones taking it to new and hilarious heights with things like Operation British and the Colony Laser.
But it's not like earth did perform it's own colony drop at one point, like when they decided that they could do without Kansas to fulfill a political goal in 83.

Plus, the only Colony Drop to do more than fuck over a small city was the first one, because THAT one they shoves a lot of engines onto and had it take a run up from the moon. Which was one of the reasons why the damn thing fell apart on them over the arabian sea.
Every other colony drop was just sort of flopped unimpressively from low earth orbit.
>>
>>93428217
>EVERYBODY invaded and gassed colonies in the opening of that war.
The Federation never gassed colonies until the Titans did it in Zeta. The Federation was effectively suckerpunched by Zeon and Zeonic warcrimes.

As for 0083, my main argument was the OYW being the main problem. Zeon gave no quarter and half of humanity was wiped out. Ideally every last Zeonic soldier and sympathizer would be rounded up and tried. Atrocities like what happened would make even the staunchest non-Zeonic fenatic second guess Spacenoid "independence".

Check out the World of Tanks (formerly Tanks!) miniature game.
It has pretty basic statlines for tanks, and you should be easily able to make your own tanks/vehicles and monsters if you use a basic M4 Sherman or a Panzer 4 as your reference, balancing the other stuff around it.

The Operation British drop did a LOT of things. Firstly it shotgunned most of america and aisa with fragmenting colony parts at high speed, causing large amounts of localised damage across a wide area. The parts that slammed into the ocean caused widespread coastal damage globally resulting in most of the Earth's wet navy being destroyed and New York and California to go underwater (somehow?) then the colony dock, the biggest, heaviest part of the colony hit's Sydney. Not australia in general but literally dead-on bullseye's Sydney. An occurence so statistically unlikely to happen that it could be used as proof of divine providence, and that said divine is as terrified of the australians as the rest of us.

THAT impact was the big one. It created a crater visible from the moon where Sydney used to be. Every volcanic feature from there to the phillipenes erupts like someone prodding the stomach of a man with the shits. Windows as far as fucking Townsville and Brisbane are shattered by the force of the impact, and the resultant dustcloud covers the earth for weeks, causing a very VERY short lived iceage in places.

The damage was incredible, the Feds were THIS close to straight up surrendering after it, until Revil escaped, jacked a TV station, and basically told them "I'm on Side-3, they're bluffing. They've got fucking nothing. Call their fucking bluff guys, they physically CAN'T take the earth, it's too big." and the Feds went for it.

Presumably because most of them were safe and happy three miles underground the Brazilian rainforest at the time, and fuck everyone else on the surface, am I right?

If memory serves (played demo years ago) it's literally just roll vs target number (Dex) to make succesful aerial movement up to Mov distance. Moving downwards is "free" but you still need Dex check not to wreck yourself on landing. Knocking people off ledge/in water is a thing. And some heroes can double jump (not mid-air, just bounce from wall for immediate second jump).
>>
>>93431663
>Anything over 1" in height needs either a jump action (up to 3") or a climb action.
>Jump lets you move horizontally and vertically up to a certain amount of inches based on the roll result.
>Climb lets you move vertically up depending on the characters move amount.
>If you cannot complete a climb or jump action to a solid surface you fall.
>When falling you measure the distance and make a dex roll. The amount of damage you take depends on the height you've fallen and the result of the dex roll.
Certain characters get bonuses to climbing and jumping, particularly when making attacks from height.
>>
>>93431853
For some reason I kept reading it with an E on the end. I guess the canals should have been the give away.
>>
>>93431968
Carnivale is spelled with the E is Italian, too. He'll, in Italian, it's even pronounced.
>>
>>93431663
Zone Raiders also has some verticality rules, its more cyberpunk/Blame! gang fights but it seemed interesting.
>>
>>93431962
Meant to also say you can chain movement actions to get across multiple obstacles as long as you complete each one successfully. So jump from a building onto a post and then to another building.
>>
>>93431498
That's a pretty good model.

Either way. I would say jump in, it looks unique if anything.

Any Argatoria bros here? I keep looking at it and have a question. From what I understand the rulebook only has four of the factions in it, but the starter boxes for the other two factions mention nothing of coming with paperwork with unit stats or anything for those factions. Is there a place to actually get the stats for Gaeldor and Sheol-mog stuff somewhere?

>>93431864
Sadly no actual weapon-x model. I would grab that for sure. By far the best character in those comics… and he’s canadian.

AMG has done a couple repacks, but I imagine both the Deadpool and Wolverine models are far too new for Asmodee to give the okay on that.

Plus, most people probably already have those models because those are two of the most popular characters.

>>93430963
I just wish they sold the models individually, especially the supernatural guys. But, I'm happy to buy a couple packs of Perry models and call things good.

>>93431962
Don't forget: you can drop down off buildings and land on dudes for extra damage attacks (assuming you don't slip, fall and promptly brain yourself).

Carnevale really is such an excellent game. I need to try and get people around me playing it. I think the local crowd would like it.

Stats for his uninjured side are already up, thanks to a recent Ministravaganza.

He's basically a suicide blender. If he starts a turn on 10 energy, then charges onto a point and over the course of potentially four Uncontrollable Weapon attacks that are rolling 9 dice each and also potentially dealing 4 damage to EVERYONE within range 2 of him as well he will absolutely delete someone.
And then he will die because he has like 1 energy defence and 2's in everything else.

As for how you get him up to 10 energy quickly... well, I'd direct you to a certain tactics card the new 5 threat Loki is getting.

Off the top of my head, I don't think we've gotten an X-Force affiliation pack yet, so you might Cable, Wolverine, Deadpool and Domino in that one.

But I dunno if they're gonna ever do a Weapon-X pack, since their main core characters are Logan and Apex Sabretooth, and AMG have never repackaged any of those "Terrain + 2x Variant Characters" units before.

That said, if you really want a cheap Deadpool without having to buy a chimichanga truck, then Etsy is right there, or 3d Printer can indeed go BRRRRR.
