/awg/ Alternative Wargames General

Where are you guys? edition

>What is /awg/?
A thread to talk about minis and games which fall between the cracks, or people's homebrew wargames. /hwg/ doesn't entertain fantasy (for good reason) and the other threads are locked to very specific games, so this thread isn't tied to a game, or a genre, lets talk about fun wargames.

Any scale, any genre, any company, any minis. Skirmishers welcome. Rules designers welcome.

>Examples of games that qualify
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_miniature_wargames
Grimdark Future, Age of Fantasy, Mighty Armies, Dragon Rampant, Of Gods and Mortals, Frostgrave, Hordes of the Things, Songs of Blades and Heroes, Freebooter's Fate, Dark Age, LotR and anything that doesn't necessarily have a dedicated thread (gorkamundheim).

Goblin preorders are still up till 6th of December.
I'm still mulling over what else to pick up. Tempted to buy some Frostgrave and Rogue Stars minis along with the Goblins.

Northstar/Artizan also do a pretty nice Charles Dickens Christmas themed set of minis for charity.

So someone was saying today was supposed to be the day that Megacon Games made the announcement about what was happening with them.

Anyone hear anything? I've been looking around to no avail.

I only heard the company is in financial trouble.
Is Mercs gonna go out of production? Or are they gonna be bought up like Spartan?

So I'm planning on grabbing some WoK during the CMON sale. I've going to pick up some Nasier, what would make a nice counter force to it? I was thinking either Hadross or Teknes, since they are more defensive themed than Nasier.

They were trying to sell themselves as a design team along with the IP's to someone who could manage the production end to things.

An user said they were going to make their announcement on the 30th, but nothing happened.

Could go Shiel Hann and go full on Asian wars.

The frostgrave gnolls are pretty nice. North star sells frostgrave by the individual sheet.

They are also pretty much unique. Outside of maybe some D&D boardgame, I don't know of any plastic gnolls.

Also pretty versatile.

Yeah. They also give you about 25-30 weapons/arms for every five gnolls. I don't know what to do with them all. I've even started making some four armed gnolls.
