it’s the final countdown, da, da, da, da
da, da, da, da, da etc
Is that BoJo with the facemask on?
Moonstone looks like a combo of some skirmish games ive played with elements of d and d
i hope for moonstone they add like an undead/monster style faction. so not just zxombies and skeletons and vampires, but monsters from folklore like big foot/yeti, werewolves, hound of the baskervilles that sort of thing
They already have a variety of undeadish characters check out the leshavult and dominion factions for a look
i didnt see them on the website so thats why i thought it would be a good idea lol
because of the way they’re boxed and the fact that it’s not a traditional fantasy game they’re easy to miss. I’m home now so I can add links https://shop.moonstonethegame.com/collections/leshavult-spirits-cultists/products/a-witch-in-time https://shop.moonstonethegame.com/collections/leshavult-spirits-cultists/products/the-cursed
MOONSTONE MOONSTONE ALLLLLL DA MOONSTONE
some classic hammer horror monster type things would be cool in moonstone
Character for Moonstone, a thin plate tall, spindly man who walks around whispering into people ears either encouraging them, if on their team, or dipping poison into the opponents ears. He spreads lies and deceptions. He is strong in will power but very weak in combat. Her would rather think his way out of a combat that physically hit there
Moonstone competition, new character – Eilidh Guardian of Brigadoon a highland girl with a claymore and flintlock pistol, kilt and pirate floppy hat. They think her weak but she is plucky and fast with a glint in her dangerous eye.
My moonstone character concept is for the dominion humans, following the Duchess’s masquerade theme I would like a character names Kristen the daring, Her masquerade features a raven style mask and what sets her apart is her canvas foldout wings decorated with raven feathers, taking to the sky with her rapier Kristen nips in and out of combat. (I also love the idea of giving the character wings but a lil pokey sword for a weapon)
the one thing missing from Moonstone : OTTers … (and maybe a badger, ’cause Ben)
Like the look of the BattleSystems game. Wouldn’t mind getting in on that competition.
Moonstone needs Elephant Shrew rappers in MC Hammer pants
Highlight of the stream is Justin with Big Potato Games. Hotdog vs Chicken I would not stop laughting pity they did not keep cutting back to the studio with warren.
Warloard Games, i’d like some of that WW2 goodness please! The Half Track looks brilliant!
Love the versatility of the new ‘250’ kit from Warlord.
Aconyte Books: I’d like to read more adventures in Middle Earth besides the current lore. Maybe in different ages and some set outside of The West.
Or Memoir ’44 novels.
Has moonstone got a Leshen if not it should have. The battle system boards where great really liked them all. The warlord Sd.kfz 250 look a really nice kit wonder if they will do Hawk the Slayer next
For Moonstone, I’d like to see a young inventor, let’s call him Eddie’s Son, who wears a set of homemade steam powered wings. Somethings they work, sometimes they don’t, sometimes they go a bit wrong and send him shooting off randomly across the table. He persists though, as he’s convinced that once perfected, they’ll make his fortune, so he’ll not entertain the idea of taking them off. He’s got some neat gadgets for extracting moonstones, so he’s pretty good at it, but those wings make getting to them a challenge!
If moonstone is going to add a new character I think it should be the Devils Son-in-Law. His powers grow as the night comes on, also if you find his bride he takes -4 to his stats
I think that a fishing garden gnome type figure would make a great addition to Moonstone.
You could give the figure a card recycling mechanic. Something like “Fish” for a card by randomly picking a card from the discard to add to your hand; then play your turn/attack as normal. Turn ends with discarding a card from your hand.
Just as I was researching and about to take a bite into Dungeons and Lasers, I found this! very cool and would work so much better for my 40k setups. Nice coverage of the Expo!
