I’m quite partial to the rules of Wolsung. They make for an interesting game with lots of options and choices to make. Couldn’t get it on the table often enough, sadly.

Great battle report guys, this is why I joined BOW. Wolsung is a nice looking game from excellent looking miniatures and terrain to fun rules to play it. I look forward to more Wolsung coverage.

Absolutely loved this guys. Such a cinematic game! The golem definitely needed to activate more though! I was dying to see it smash through the door of the distillery and rampage off into the countryside!

It’s a crying shame that I have neither the time/money/acquaintances to get into this game haha

I thoroughly enjoyed this and would love to see more in the future. I would think that the trail of purloined distillate might lead to the sea side depot where it is waiting to be stowed.

The use of a traditional card deck is an interesting addition to the game and others like Malifaux. Though dice are still used in Wolsung, the extra part of the cards is unique spin and they don’t even need to be official products. Real bang for the buck as these cards can be used for these games and basic card games if needs be.

As for a @Warzan mash-up I could see the 60’s Batman and Robin making an appearance.

That was a lot of fun to watch. I’d like to see what you guys could do with Strange Aeons or This is Not a Test.

Thanks for this battle report.
I really enjoy watching it.

Very didactic example of the game.
Please do more report with this high quality.

Great report and how much fun does Wolsung look! Also, I don’t know if it is new or I have missed it in the past but I love the play all feature! This is great so I can just let the computer go while I am doing other work or something. Only complaint, and it is minor, is that the play all feature doesn’t work on my Kindle Fire as the app is not recognized. The videos still play in the one shot articles so that is fine.

Yet another great report. Keep these coming and I’ll keep watching. Doesn’t matter what game it is.

The board looks very thematic. I like how you have given each scenery piece a function. And the scenario was hilarious. Too bad the golem didn’t get more action. I think lowering the activation to a 3+ once awake is a good adjustment.

And Justin was visibly having way too much fun trying to beat up Warren. Is colleague rivalry the new thing?

The game looks wonderful too. Unfortunately it’s just one game too many for me at this time. Can’t collect and play them all.

Finally got to watch this awesome game – thanks guys! The format seemed to work really well too. Lots of little videos can be hard and anoying to watch, but having a ‘play all’ function meant that it was much easier to follow.

Please do more Wolsung!

Also, I think Justin was using how own Scylla miniatures – which look fantastic. Whose were the Ash and Oak Club? Were they by Justin too? And the Golem? They all looked really nice, and the table was great too. As for what happens next @warzan and @dignity… I could see the Triads moving in on the Scylla’s turf, sensing weakness and an opportunity to muscle in on their territory. I could see the Inventors going after the Golem to try to capture it / research and repurpose it. That could be an Inventors vs. Golem game, or an Inventors… Read more »

id love to see a scylla vs ash and oak rematch where the scylla go to get revenge. the objective is to set fire to the ash and oak manor house in multiple spots during a fancy party where they were drinking all the illegal booze. (maybe followed by the loose crazed golem trying to recover his stolen booze) not too familiar with wolsung to know if thats in the realm but should be fun.
