Super - thank you!

[Gunbird]

As enthusiastic as I was about it when I heard about.......it's a pass for me now. I''ll get some of the figs though.....eventualy.

These minis really remind me of AE: Bounty. My son loves that game.

I don't know, I'm feeling much better about now.

Thanks for that. So it sounds like each character gets a number of attributes that personalizes them. Is there any published playtests out there?

Already getting an upturn in sales of Cobalt-1 figures which I think is in anticipation of these coming out

I bet. Good call - IIRC, the Cobalt range had solid sculpts and great character.

I have a few of them in my painting queue and can vouch for that. There's also some neat civilian-likes (trader, slaver..) in the character range.

Civilians... noted!

Nice one. It's an excellent range.

See I wanted to watch to get an idea before I lay down any cash.....and I'm paywalled.

Anyone know where else I can see the video ?

How queer...  Clearly all sorted now with Audrey posting the YouTube link, but the video wasn't behind a paywall when posted it.

Separately, there's an enlightening discussion on the Facebook Rogue Stars Fan Page.  Not sure if this link will work for those not in the group, but give it a try: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10154253973898992&set=gm.565049367026346&type=3  (If the link doesn't work properly, it's in the comments on a picture of some green Cobalt power armoured chaps - or chapesses, it's hard to tell under that much armour plate.)

I was just on my way here to post that exact link 


I've been really looking forward to these rules for quite a while now, so I've of course jumped on the nickstarter moments after it went up. Im a huge fan of Andrea Sfiligois game design (going so far as working on a mod for SoBH, detailed over in the fantasy section), and from what I've seen and read about Rogue Stars the game is looking pretty good. In particular I like the way activations and initiative works on the paper. Looking forward to seeing how it actually flows in game.

With miniature's sculpted by Mark Copplestone its a double whammy as he's also one of my favourite sculptors.

I just saw this today and bought it. So that's my early Xmas present. I already have tons of minis that were just looking for a game like this- old Cobalt 1, some old Warzone, the Chiltern space pirates...

These minis really remind me of AE: Bounty. My son loves that game.

I was thinking the same thing.  Really a shame AE:Bounty didn't get more support during its lifetime, really thought it had some promise.

I can see where Cobalt-1 also springs to mind, especially in the figure aesthetics.  No surprise there.

Chiltern space pirates...

I don't know these figures, and Chiltern don't seem to be around any more. Are there any pics? Did anyone pick up the range?
