We're a couple weeks away from the launch of the newest big miniatures game, Gundam Assemble. With a big IP and a big company behind it, and planned future releases for months ahead, Gundam Assemble could overnight become one of the big miniatures gamesAre you excited for it? Got any plans for paint schemes? MS you really want to see? Does Laura Rolla make you feel strange in a way you can't quite explain? Is your local shop planning anything for Gundam Assemble?
>take gunpla>remove best thing about gunpla>are you excited?Not really.
>>98850085They're really small and not articulated so they'll be quick and easy to paint.* And unlike a lot of other wargames there's zero expectation all of your guys will have the same colors, so you can make each one unique and fun without looking weird on the table.*I know about Gundam Artifact, they have awful seams and are all in dull poses and the sculpts can be a bit muddy. Assemble minis look way better to paint
>>98850100I'm just going to use these light and medium mechs for Battletech lol
>>98850966Stealing japanese mecha for Battletech? That is so fucked up
>>98850085Anyone who's assembled 28mm scaled gunpla knows they're fragile and unsuited for game pieces. No one actually wants poseable game pieces that are going to be squished into an awkward pose after a few turns of picking them up and moving them.
>>98852814One of the biggest arguments in regards of why bandai is better than gw is the articulated models.
Given how impossible it is to get Gundam TCG shit in the UK, I've no interest in starting to collect this.
>>98852871So? I don't care what dipshit arguments about brand competition people have. That doesn't change that no one actually wants to play a wargame with tiny poseable miniatures. It's classic idea guy shit.
I'm looking forward to it, but not breathlessly so. I'm not a gundam guy, but I've always liked how zakus look and the initiative system in the game looks like it has amazing potential, and with a starter for 3k yen there's no reason to not give it a try.I am a bit worried about the quality of conversation at the game table. I don't want to listen to an autist loredump at me while he stares at my earlobe. But let's see how it goes.
>>98849857They'll probably do like one wave of decent figures before diving deep into the slop-filled well that is the SD Gundam series so no. Already got burned by their ccg.
I thought this launched a year ago. What are they launching with when they already put out the big OYW suits?
>>98849857>Gundam Hammer:)>Twin-cannon balls:(
>>98854294No, Bandai put some of the models this game will use into pre-made sets of the Gundam card game so a lot sloptubers made videos on the models back then
