Von unaussprechlichen Kulten second Edition
« on: May 16, 2017, 02:49:18 PM »
There are enough hints to say its clear now that there will be a second edition :D
Im really looking forward.
Have also somethimg like a wishlist ;)

Printed version!!!!!!
If its not planned maybe a small Kickstarter Campaign could be a good Idea.
Just for a printed edition and some goodies...
Perfect time for a reprint of the SA solo cards...
Think its the perfect time to start a discussion about VUK
Kind regards
Florian

Printed edition would be nice, you can't riffle the pages under your nose, inhaling the heady scent of printed lunacy on a PDF (not without some expensive cracking sounds).

This deserves to see a print edition, even as a limited Kickstarter-

Thanks guys. We at UMW have been hard at work over the last several months (or several years...depending on how you do the math...) on this very thing.  I wanna show off all the stuff...but cannot. Let me just say I'm pretty excited about what we have put together so far and the cast of characters we have pressed into service for this project is as motley a crew as you could dream of.

Always looking for more ideas but so far:

V.U.K. will be a Kickstarter

There will be many new, cool models

A printed rulebook is what Uncle Mike wants as well

Keep those thoughts / ideas comin'.  8)

That's good news, as someone late to the S.A. party and who only get's to game with friends every two months or so, can I just add my weight (and assured kickstarter pledge) behind Harleyface's request for the option to buy the SA solo cards?

Both good questions...both without an answer currently.

Working on the book and it is getting a fairly large overhaul. New art and content always take a while to get squared away...and new models means lots of mold making as well.  o_o o_o
 
 My guess is the Kickstarter will be in October...but nothing is set in stone.

Having been able to play more VUK recently, I have thought up a couple of things that I think would enhance gameplay of VUK.

SPELLS:  Oft-times a spell-caster has spells that cannot be used in the current scenario being played.  We have implemented the following rule:

Counter-Spell: If an enemy spell-caster attempts to cast a spell and is located within 10" (LOS not necessary) of a friendly spell-caster. The friendly spell-caster can "use" (make unavailable for the remainder of this game) one of thier unused spells to make a 6+ required for the enemy spell-caster to successfully cast the spell. This decision must be made as soon as the opponent announces that he is going to cast the spell (before the die is rolled).

GLORY (Campaign rule)

A Cult is always looking to make its God/diety the most powerful.  With these rules, a structure is provided to bring this to fruition. The Campaign continues until one cults diety reaches 50 Glory Points (shorter Campaign- Each cult will need to play about 8-10 scenarios to bring the campaign to a conclusion).  Players in the campaign can choose to set higher amounts to extend the game.

Glory Points are accumulated for the following:

* Normal/Large/ Extra Large size Enemy or Neutral figure removed from table (light or serious wound): 1/2/3 GP
* A figure dies or is sacrificed: 1 GP  or 2 GPs if figure has command.
* Winning a scenario: 1d3 GPs.

Interesting idea on the counter spell. Just working on spells currently...things are changing.  :)

If you're really that interested, you might be able to catch a glimpse of some of the new models coming out here:

You might even catch sight of some here as well:

I will say no more, or the Cult Leader up there might have more than strong words for later.   :D
