Take A Peek Inside The Batman Miniatures Game Rulebook!
December 2, 2014 by brennon
Knight Models have been kind enough to send us a few snippets from inside the Batman Miniatures Game Rulebook that is coming out very soon! See what you think of these few pages which give you an insight into the game, how it plays and of course shows off the excellent work they've been doing on translations...
As well as some awesome layouts one of the things that really gives me hope for the game is the amount of illustrations they've added into the rulebook alongside computer generated images from the Batman video games AND painted miniatures in play. Nothing worse than looking through a rulebook and not having something to get inspired by!
The rulebook looks clear and concise where it needs to be with not too many big walls of text. Always good when you're flicking through the book to find a particular rule or clarification. The eagle eyed amongst you might be able to spy some interesting information from these pages too so if anything catches your eye drop it into the comments below.
It's going to be really interesting giving this game a go and here at Beasts of War we've been coming up with a plethora of ideas going forward. I wonder what each of the team members would want to have as their gang?
For me it would have to either be Gotham PD or The Jokers crew of miscreants!
What do you think of the book so far?

How soon is very soon?!! Inquiring minds need to know! lol
Looks great! The current (free to download) rulebook is full of great artwork but can be a bit hard to use and don’t even bother trying to print it out in B&W. I’ll be picking this up when it’s released. 🙂
That looks really promising.
Dinner dinner dinner dinner, dinner dinner dinner dinner…. im off for me dinner.
That reminds me of a joke –
“I say, how does Batman’s mother call him for dinner?”
“I don’t know, how does Batman’s mother call him for dinner?”
“She doesn’t, she was gunned down in front of him when he was eight years old….”
I’m thinking on picking this up, but really depends of the price it will have.
What i could catch with my “eagle eye”: – finally we have a “Coup de Grace” rule, that was requested by the community – new gear options for henchmen ! Medpack makes pefect sense in a cop/batman band, neurotoxic drug add some mobility a Joker’s gang desperetly need and tactical radios reinforce the swarm build of Penguin’s bands. I’m less interrested by the poison immunity for Bane and i can’t wait to see options for other bands – lots of ambiguous names are modified like “Band’s Leader” (sometime mistaken with the “Leader” rank) becomes “Boss” – some clarifications also like… Read more »
this game has seriously caught on in our local meta and its great to know a clear concise rule book is in the future.
I am hyped as hell for this game. I am a huge Batman fan, especially of the Arkham video games. Personally, I really want to get the Riddler. By far and away my favourite of Batman’s villains.
