So we're getting miniatures eh?
« on: March 18, 2014, 11:53:07 PM »
Ok I just saw the pictures of the Gama Trade Show in Las Vegas. One of them had miniatures for the Wizard, Priestess, Warlord, and Necromancer. Let us now begin the epic discussion of how awesome this is!

I am Sailor Vulcan! Champion of justice and reason! And yes, I am already aware my uniform is considered flashy, unprofessional, and borderline sexually provocative for my species by most intelligent lifeforms. I did not choose this outfit. Shut up.

Took me awhile to find what he was referring to.

Transport just became more challenging, but in a good way.  :)

Just this past week I picked up about a dozen different mage-y minis from the Reaper Bones line of minis, for $2-3 apiece. Played with them for the first time yesterday and loved it. Frees up a ton of space in the zone and just adds a ton of character to the game.

I'll probably be a minority, but I liked the fact that this game didn't have any miniatures ( I have plenty of them already and could use any stand in if I wanted ) as I find the Mage cards very nicely done and much better looking than any miniature of the MageKnight/D&D quality class.

Well, since the mage card had no use beside representing the mage, i like the miniature idea. It make the mage to stand out. I would not use miniature for other creatures. I hope they will make the base of miniature able to hold both counters.
