Fourcolorsfigs are doing the rules for the miniature range. AFAIK each box contains a sheet with complete shortcut game and scenario rules.

There's also a full size printed game namend Chaos in Carpathia in the pipeline which should be out pretty soon. It's based on the largely reworked Goalsystem engine and contains rules for 4 warbands and a developing campaign system in the like of Mordheim or LOTOW.
Main changes to Chaos in Cairo is that the game is much more deadly now which is surely a good thing. You needed a lot of bullests to take a Cairo character out.

Blue Moon Manufacturing is an exciting new range covering the Pulp and Horror Genre and so much more. Each set includes introductory rules designed for use with the figures in that box. These boxes are in conjunction with the series of books titled "The Chaos Series". Those of you who have played "Chaos in Cairo" are familiar with this gaming system. "Chaos in Cairo" is being re-printed in full color. Some of the eminent titles planned for release are: "Chaos in Carpathia", "Chaos in Chicago", and "Chaos in Tombstone". There will also be free down-loadable scenarios for the "Chaos Series" every month on this site.

Post by: zbyshko on February 28, 2007, 01:20:38 AM: i apologize for being the first dissenter - but i'm not impressed. the figures look stretched and out of proportion. i looked on the their webpage and other reports on them and the look the same there.

and the werewolves look like a size 10 wolf head on a size 6 hair man body. i personally will stick with the west wind stuph. but to each his/her own.

I think I have to agree with you :? some are a bit dodgy but there is a lot there to like and I think the idea of a game in a box is very good.

Post by: WitchfinderGeneral on February 28, 2007, 11:33:23 PM: I also thought they're looking somewhat "comic" like.
But they have their very own charm. I like them more every time I look at the pictures.
And it's not a problem for me to use some figures that don't look so serious like all the others. Think about it: Some actors in "Gothic Horror" movies tend to overact. Why shouldn't the figures do the same?

I agree completely... I think it is an original and good idea.

Post by: Mike D. Mc Brice on March 01, 2007, 09:58:47 AM: The Werewolve set has a very nice style, I also like the wolves and am curious to see them in the flesh.
The Frankensteinset has also lots of charcters.

They look rather tiny on the pictures but Scott has assured they are real 28s and fit with the Westwind range.
