Skulldred New Stuff (pic heavy)
« on: 01 June 2011, 02:37:38 PM »
Hey all,

I just updated the Skulldred blog with a whole lot of new goodies for you kind playtesters to enjoy.  Skulldred is getting a full colour A5 manual, which means me doing lots of art and funky things to cram it with- so expect to see more goodies, such as new counters, new Skulldred specific Bederken Minis, floorplans and stuff of that ilk.

Up now are blank character cards, a photoshop .PSD for putting your own pictures into customised cards!





And a sneak peek at one of the formatted pages, to give you an idea of what direction its going in.

Visit www.skulldred.blogspot.com for all the goodies!




You can also grab the warband generation spreadsheet too.

Looking really good Dave!

I'll have to have a proper browse later and see if I can squeeze a little game this week with those Bederken minis I painted up.  :D

You're seriously spoiling us now  :-*

Love the new character cards & can't wait to get my grubby little paws on the finished A5 rulebook when it's unleashed.
All hail King Dave. The man's a genius  :D
...and what fresh new hell is this?

I am going to look at these rules immediately.  The character sheets are perfect for convention games.

Yeah, I did that a couple of weeks ago & as a result I've just ordered a pile of fantasy figures & I'm building a new games table too.
Curse you, Dave, you & your awesome set of rules  lol

Skulldred is well worth trying & I defy anybody not to be impressed.

Agreed! It has replaced SOBAH as our game of choice at the Asbestos' household. Not to put that game down in any way, but this just gives the right feel for our heoic battles!

Aww shucks you guys...

Spot on re: conventions - when I sat down to plan it out that's one of the key things I wanted to address.  You should be able to show up at a con with a bag of minis, shuffle your cards to get the points balanced then get into a fun, fair game in minutes with a total stranger.  No looking at army lists or flicking through books.  A deck of cool looking, color coded cards.  Easy.

Downloaded the ruleset and it looks excellent! I love SOBH, but very keen to get cracking on Skulldred too. The  magic system in particular looks really interesting.

Here are a few gobbos that I mocked up earlier today. The tutorial was really handy, since I am basically a Photoshop nuff-nuff.
 
(The Fanatic was given the Treacherous trait, because after he drinks the mushroom brew and swings the ball and chain a few times, he gets mixed up which end of the battlefield he should be pointing at!)

Awesome!  Keep 'em coming!

I should add that my copyright only extends to the card itself, how the end user populates it for their personal use is their affair!
