MERCS Kem Var and demo board
« on: July 26, 2012, 02:28:15 PM »
Played a demo the other day at my FLGS – Game Night.net – on 6A in Barnstable, MA.  – and decided it was time to move my KemVar up a few spots in the painting queue. I still need to mark facings on the bases, but I’m pleased with the results:





Seeing as MERCS is usually demo-ed on small gaming areas, I re-purposed a couple old pieces of terrain for an outdoor industrial setting.  Needs a bit more weathering and some additional resin scenics for clutter/cover, but I think it’s acceptable.

Nice, I like the colours you've chosen.
That little board looks great.
Do you have photos of any more of your terrain any where?

Looks very nice, how large is the table? And I thought mercs was square based or am I totally in the wrong ball park?

Looks Great but you could probably use some scatter terrain.  Those are big open spaces for a skirmish level game.  Do you have any close up shots?

Great minis. I like the bases. The board looks great. Will we see a batrep?  :D

Thanks all. I do have some 'scatter' terrain bits to add. It's a-comin'. That's 24" x 24"  for instant action, and you definitely need cover.  I'll post close-ups ASAP.

Mercs offers 2d game mats. Not gridded though, as they use the stat cards for movement and firing templates.

I'll do a BatRep once things settle down, and I've finished my proxy CCC. (Heresy troopers)

Yeah, I'd just seen the game mats and assumed (wrongly as it seems) that it was a gridded game. Looking forwards to reading an AAR.
