Yay! The first one looks a bit strange with too long arms, but the rest is really nice! What's the boardgame about?

His face is perfekt! I just don't know what he's doing with his left hand..

Unfortunately the figures won't be available separately, I fear.

I've seen the documentation in the official website... Damn... Another game I *must* buy...  :cry:

And more ideas for my Pulp Games! "Obscura Korps"... Simple but effective.

Take on You ist ein neuer französischer Verlag, der noch nicht in Essen ausstellen wird. Zwei Neuheiten sind dieses Jahr ins Programm gekommen, Garden Party und Tannhäuser. Wer der französischen Sprache mächtig ist, kann sich eine ausführliche und megabyteträchtige Spielpräsentation (.Garden Party, .Tannhäuser) herunterladen.

Die französische Version der Spiele erscheint Ende November 2006 und wird von Asmodée vertrieben. Die englische Version erscheint (voraussichtlich) im März 2007. Die deutsche Version wird von Pro Ludo übersetzt und soll ebenfalls 2007 vertrieben werden.

Do you know if there will be an English version?

And do I have to go to France to get it?  :lol:

I guess they'll do an English version (only available in England, of course ;-)). It's a bit annoying that they got everything on their website only in French at the moment.
Most of the time translations get released later than the original game. So I don't expect it earlier than spring 2007.

This looks like it could be very interesting. I'm not sure about the painted minis but the overall look intrigues me.
Weird War stuff isn't my usual bag, but this has got my attention.
Interesting to see how it goes.

Oh I agree Pappa!  I think Weird War 2 seems to be popping up more and more....

Tannhäuser actually is about WW1, which didn´t end in 1918, but continues right until 1949... that doesn´t distract from the excellent miniatures, however. Too bad they´re only part of the boxed game. And it´s an interesting change of premise, although I have to say that the stylistics seen so far don´t look really WW1 to me...

Reading their website, it seems it really is WW2 stuff with a change in the background to avoid Hitler and the nazi party, and svastikas and so on... The "bad guy" seems to be the kaiser, a new kaiser
