Our group has printed off the sample boards and given the alpha rules a couple of plays. We found it a lot of fun and surprisingly co-operative.

Television is rather a frightening business. But I get all the relaxation I want from my collection of model soldiers. P. Cushing

Although I must admit that I joined the KS for the miniatures it is good to hear (again) that the game is good as well.

I've run a couple of miniatures games using the alpha rules and they worked out really well.

I don't think so...

A real shame of those models to only appear in plastic in a boardgame. But oh well...more money to spend on other stuff :P

I was going to say the opposite...not that he doesn't have skill, but that I really don't like the style in which he paints.  The figures, however, look pretty darn good.

I agree completly with you, the more miniatures I see painted up like this, the less I like the style, while I do really like the miniatures. Luckily I don't have to paint them like that when they arrive :)

I think it's a very skillful style of painting - perhaps not to everyone's taste because it's got such a distinct 'flavour' to it - but superbly executed.

Love the "poping" going on with almost every highlight going to white :)
