New magic looks awesome! I was initially worried when I heard talk of "cards" and "tokens," but everything I have seen so far looks great!

smashthedean Posted December 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2017 The tokens play really well and while I don't physically like the cards as a component, the system works fine if you use a d8 and just track what you rolled each round to avoid dupes.

InfestedKerrigan Posted December 7, 2017 Report Share Posted December 7, 2017 I heard it plays just like AoS. Care to comment on the validity of this statement? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not true. It actually plays just like POGs. Instead of a General, your army is lead by your Slammer. Time to invest in some pewter minis! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaking of that faction, Iron Crowns bottom of January 2018 better be a thing. Tired of waiting on that gem! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
