Knights Models Shows Off The Guardians Of The Galaxy Starter Set
February 5, 2016 by deltagamegirl22
As the excitement builds around Knight Models' newest creation, their Marvel Universe Miniatures Game, it seems only right that we begin to get acquainted with the members of the teams.
Keeping in mind that each Starter Set will find four highly detailed white-metal miniatures, four character cards to represent the heroes and a small-sized rulebook, let's have a look at who's in the Stater Set for the Guardians of the Galaxy.
The leader (self appointed) is Peter Quill, perhaps better known as Starlord. He brings to the party a quad laser and element gun and will undoubtedly do some damage. Next up is Gamora ZWB Titan. Being the daughter of Thanos, she's a trained Assassin, armed with her blast gun and prized Vorpal Blade.
Her Stealth ability also adds a nice buff as she can have her team mates join her in action right away. Next in line is Rocket Raccoon! There's not a weapon this guy can't figure out for you. And last, but certainly not least, is Drax the Destroyer. Drax offers not only his imposing size, but his ridiculous knife skills as well.
Will you be playing the Guardians of the Galaxy in the new Marvel Game?

I am Groot?
I’m getting this one when starting this game. I have really wanted to get a buddy of mine into tabletop games for a while now and he is a massive Marvel fan. So this game is the best thing I could have asked for.
If ever there was a way to get non-gamers into gaming, I’m a firm believer that things like this are the key. Something that know- recognizable IP. I hope your buddy loves it. 🙂
I hope so too.
Looks great, will sure give it a try
Does it have a release date yet?
No, just ‘soon’.
I reckon I’ll have to plump for the Avengers if only for Thor haha
I’m definitely plumping for Thor ! Oh, you meant… never mind.
Well he is rather worthy 😉
Does Thor like them plump?
There’s a hammer-related joke in here somewhere… 😉

The X-Men set has Rogue (the version I remember from the cartoons when I was young). That was all I needed to know in order to make a decision!

It might be a good thing that nobody around here plays BMG, since I would not stop buying miniatures of these games. Especially the Marvel stuff. I’d have to have everybody, and at $25 a pop it just would be insane expensive.
Like the miniatures but not a big fan of the card.
Those are stunning. Only question is were is Groot?
This is a game that I’d get into. Characters that have a wide appeal, general public knows most of the big hitters and stunning models.
I like Batman, but the BMG was full of hentchmen. And at the price that Knights Models sold them I really wasn’t willing to get into the game. If they make JLA game then I’ll jump on board in a heartbeat.
You think this one will be cheaper? I wouldn’t think so.
