Ballmonsters!

I wasn't sure where this one would best go on the forum, but this seems about right.

Last year, Chris at Macrocosm got distracted by Bonefields, so I stepped in and bought the range of ball-shaped creatures he Kickstarted in 2016.  I'm not really a miniatures salesman.  I write games.  But these guys seems so desperate for a game of their own that I just had to my hands of Chris's balls and start playing with them! 

Here are a few pics from the range:







That's just a taster, because my balls are pretty awesome and I wouldn't want to slap them all over your eyes in one go.

I think of the game as the antidote to fantasy sports games in the same way that I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue is the antidote to panel games.  It's like snooker, but the balls are trying to eat each other and no one knows where the pockets are.

I need to make some proper gameplay videos, but you can download the rules from my website, which you can find through clicking on any of the pictures above.

Those are nice Balls you've got there.

There used to be a range of squishy balls that looked like that.  I can't remember what they were called, though.
They were tennis ball sized mostly. Late 80's or 90's. 
Very interesting.

Well, due warning: don't Google "monster balls".  The goggles!  They do nothing!

Mad Balls, I believe. I gave one to a colleague as an obligatory Xmas present, to general mystification.
