Welcome.

DA is a great game. Easy to understand the rules, but lots of choices and decisions to make in the game. And you don't need too many figures for a posse either.

I have just finished my NS Congregation Posse and in the process of putting Perry Ansar heads on some Foundry & Artizan cowboys to make up the numbers.

Pictures will follow when I get time as a box arrived from Northstar yesterday containing the Shadow Dragon Tong and the Forsaken Posse with Gatling Gun.

It is a bit addictive isn`t it as only Luisito has the ruleset in our Montreal group and yet I have painted more DA figures in the last 6 months than anything else.

Cheers,

Forsaken Posse with Gatling Gun.


Cheeky!

Yep lots of our group are digging out old figures or buying new figures. Most of us have figures for at least 2 posses.

Had my second game on Tuesday and it was a blast (especially for the posse that threw the "1" for dynamite!) but we have one query. How do you get rid of a Shaken result (apart from with Snake Oil) or does it stay with the character for the whole game?

You generally keep shaken for the whole game. There are a few supernatural abilities that can remove it.

We have found that it's fairly easy to down characters, but you have to close in to finish them off.

Really cool figures, Dino.  8) They certainly look the part and will fit in to Dracula's America very well indeed.  :D

In the meanwhile, check out the gorgeous Knuckeduster Gunfighter's Ball line of figures - they fit very well with Artizan/Dracula's America miniatures:

There's some good comparison pictures of Old West miniatures here:

Hi

Are those the new heroic 32 Kunckleduster minis?

Thanks

Those are the old ones but I would highly, highly recommend the new Gunfighters Ball minis. They are just fantastic & scale well with just about everything.
I am looking for the following Deadlands minis:  Shotgun Thug, Lost Soul, Cleaners, Railroad Workers & Feral Dead. If you have any of these minis, or if you are one, please send me a PM.
