Video Sponsors: Wayland Games - Infinity
With the move to England well and truly finished, it's time to get down to some proper gaming. Brian, Steve, Stu, & Martin sit down to have a look at what happened last weekend at Carnevale's Starvation event here at Tabletop Nation.

Works now. Thanks @Dignity !
And they now have Wayland Games as a point of sale on their site. T’internet is happy again. 🙂
I am really on the fence with this one, which no doubt is one of the game mechanics, hehe. Not to keen on the models, although the Cocrodile – Doctors of the Ospedale and The Black Spectre seem pretty cool looking. If I were to choose though, the Doc’s win the Ow shiny certificate. Think I will watch the videos to see what the game plays like. Only needing a few models seems like a big bonus. And for those that just like the game, I guess you could just buy the rules and find other models as stand-ins I… Read more »
Pssssst guys, put Wayland games on your Distributions page. i think that it would be good business etiquette, since all the advertising BoW & TTN have done. 🙂 hehe
Also Description on items would be nice to. Main one being Rule Book, Softback or Hardback? Although at €25 I would think it was softback, which is good value for a decent game ruleset. 🙂
Bad sound on this vid. 🙁
This makes a good introduction to Carnevale week, (although Count Pantelimon was better!) but didnt really tell us any more than that.
The Count thanks you for the complement and demands that you play more Carnevale.
Personally I’m glad to see the TableTop Nation guys enjoying the game, I will have to get my Patricians painted up for when I can get over there.

Apologies for the sound. Unfortunately the Count was unavailable for our Starvation chat. That said, if it served to steer you towards the Carnevale week content on BoW then ‘mission accomplished’!
I do find the archives of theme week content one of the best kept secrets here on BoW!
Secret Stu? I try and tell everyone about them. Great source of rules sets which are very handy and saves a lot of reading for people with learning difficulties like me. They are a great way to get to know the staff in them to. They really big a game to life, a lot more than any 400+ page rule book, hehe 🙂 I have informed my nephew about these videos and I hope he is paying attention. I have got him into Infinity as his first game and got him a Acontecimento starter box to whet his appetite. 🙂… Read more »
Happy to see this game is gaining more interest. i wish they would put a player locator up on their website.
Just watched video 2/6 and I have to say that I am become a bit of a fan of the rules so far. Seem basic enough to have learnt them after a game or two, but complex and interesting enough to allow for a plethora of funky dynamic moves. Kinda reminds me of those Hollywood films, hehe. 😛 Will defiantly be watching the remaining 4 videos tomorrow, and I would like to thank you for bringing this back to my attention (sometimes things just don’t sink in the first time,…..or second….or…) Is it my eyes? or does the freeze frame… Read more »
I ran some demos of the game in celebration of the Starvation campaign at my local shop on Saturday. Lots of comments about the cool models and interesting setting. I’m looking forward to playing some more games now that some of my friends have at least seen the system.
I will say that the components and joint locations are not ideal on some of the models. I had quite a time putting a few of them together before my demos.
Just finished watching all the videos on how to play Carnevale and I have to say that I was totally wrong to sit on the fence for so long. Years ago I used to love playing Skaven in Mordheim as I loved the sneaky rats with slings pebble dashing my foes, hehe. However, what I have learned in the Carnevale videos is that this game appears to be similar to Mordheim…..only on a heap load of testosterone to help you run all over the terrain. The fact it makes the terrain so important as a 3D structure seems a HUGE… Read more »
