Very cool. Always cool to see new stuff. Can you ask them if they are also working with companies for terrain for this scale?

@fjlilly The buildings are by these guys https://www.thephalanxconsortium.com I think the large ones you see were part of the Kickstarter but hopefully they will be available to buy as well

You can still order the Neo Tyrannis Cityscape buildings through The Phalanx Consortium. An order button has been placed on their Kickstarter page for the campaign.

Isn’t Polyversal 6mm given the companies that were making figures for the Kickstarter?

The system works with 6-15mm minis. Our battlegroups in boxed sets from our 5 partners are 6mm mostly with hawk stuff at 10mm. Thanks for checking it out. -Byron

This is looking good.

That sounds interesting, I wonder would it work with larger scale minis ie. 28mm.

It could, but is intended for smaller scales. You could scale ranges and movement values for larger minis and just use a consistent scale and it would work okay.

Backed the Kickstarter and my brother and I are excited to both play, and introduce Polyversal in my store!

Intriguing system and great artwork!

The art is amazing. James Masino and Bruno Werneck have done some excellent work for us. The rulebook has 10 full page pieces that introduce every section and really help immerse you in the story.

Never heard of them before but the system sounds interesting

I wonder from where people get all those wonderful ideas. People with “old” armies and miniatures can play with this, too,quite easily and, hopefully, happily.
Too bad for us over the pond in goE that it´ll be not very easy to get the stuff, at least without having to pay helluva shipping costs, including taxes. Any partnerships with European companies planned?

Apart from the large pieces of terrain and Microworld games all the manufacturers involved in this game figure wise are based in Europe

Though not sure what Plasmablasts is up to as though haven’t been able to order them directly for a couple of years

He has been working on some awesome stuff (I’ve seen previews). Also he has been working on revamping his website. Marios has been awesome to work with on Polyversal.

We are doing EU friendly shipping for our preorders which will ship all at once and avoid import taxes because shipment to customers will be from a partner in the EU. Also, we are distributed by Esdevium in the UK… if you bug stores enough they may stock the game :).

If only we had a games store

A great idea. I loved Adeptus Mechanicus/Space Marine, and this could be a return to those days.

All compatible 🙂

Been working on Aliens for it as well!

Looks to be a nice system.

Looks like an awesome game, I’m loving the idea of this at 15mm, the hex system being connected to command structure is intriguing as well.

Going to take a look at the website when I’m done with the BoW content.

The ideas behind this game are brilliant: bring your own minis then stat them up appropriately? Sounds great.

Will there a spreadsheet available to help with design like there was ( I think there still might be) for Dirtside 2

frontlinegeneral

Yes, a spreadsheet and a web based hex tile generator.

I’d like to see a game designed with this mentality do well. A universal system thats actually good, that fans could write standard adaption lists for factions from other games could be reslly useful, even if the systems being poached might not be too happy.

frontlinegeneral

At least from our five minis manufacturing partners, most who have their own rulessets, the response has been very positive and collaborative. Most manufacturers understand that a new way to play with the same models isn’t really a threat, and still helps sell models.

@lawnor There are quite a few systems out there that do this already to great and sometimes lesser success

Now, that seems very interesting. I wonder how it would work with Spartan Games (R.I.P.) Planetfall range.

frontlinegeneral

It works. We already have some backers who are converting them.
