MERCS Week is coming to an end but Warren wants to get one more game in before the end. It's time for battle to rage in an abandoned Australian research center Todays forces facing off against each other are the Kemvar and the Keizai Waza. Who will win?
Been waiting for this vid, love the Keizai Waza. Something about a tactical nuke on a 2×3 foot table is just awesome.
Nuke em up 😉
I think i would change to the K waza a tac nuke is quite cool to get my fingers on .
Like always a very cool vid, iam looking forward to see more battle reports from you guys.
tactcal nukes in a skirmish game…….bring it on love it …errrr on the side of Carnage.
Would love t be entered in the drawing. Really enjoying MERCS week and i think it’s about time to jump in.
great week
You just gotta have a nuke!!
I don’t know why, might just be my British side coming out, but it feels gauche if I just type “entry” or “give me models” for a comment, even though that is why lots of people are probably commenting on these videos specifically…
All of which explains why I came up with the above comment
And here’s my entry, thanks awfully for the opportunity!
Btw, I love the terrain you guys always seem to have. Do you make the individual pieces yourselves, commission them, or buy it whole sale?
Great video as always guys
entry for me
Enter me please 😛
At minute mark 31, and I believe early. There was a snap to cover(S2C) move where ER level was changed. However you can not change ER during a S2C. I pointed this out in a previous video, but I’ll point it out here as well. The assassin would have made it into base contact regardless. I just wanted to point it out there.
Really enjoyed Mercs week. Hope the game gathers momentum: there are certainly some great models.
Also the Forward Observer has a machine pistol that he could have used in melee against the assassin. Minute mark 36.
Minute mark 38 the pathfinder moved up 2 levels without stopping on another level. When changing elevation you have to go up 1 level at a time. If you don’t have a level 1 to stop at when getting to the level 2, you can not make that move. (Hope that makes sense)
I don’t like correcting playstyles, however with these being “demo” games I feel like it is necessary.
Kemvar is my first choice for a MERCS faction. I’m a huge fan of their look and tactics. I love the wolf-pack stuff, and I love the Predator vibe of the whole faction.
What’s better than MERCS? FREE MERCS!!!
I think the best part of the 3 video series is you see Warren get a better and better handle on the rules. Great job guys.
Agreed, you can see that in just 3 games you can get a great understanding of the game and components
Ohhhh how I hope I win
I hate to be the nitpicker, but Warren: Your KemVar sniper is a “she” not a “he”. Aside from that, great video. It’s a great game with some fantastic minis and a lot of potential for future growth/expansion. It’s also a great game for introducing new players to wargaming because it’s low cost and the rules are pretty simple (relatively speaking in this hobby). Glad to see it getting some love on BoW.
Tac nukes. But of course. ‘I’d buy that for a dollar!’ 😉
No laser charged dice Warren?
Well now I have seen all the videos I can honestly say meh….
love the kemvar. wonder who would win in a stealth match kemvar vs sam fisher and solid snake.
Great videos, although I have not finished this one. You pulled me into the game. There is so many things I like about this game, the small armies, small playing areas needed ( but can go larger if you want a multi player game), the fact you can set up missions easily. Would love to see a multi player game…with everyone with their own mission objectives.
interesting game … but the most modern timewise I play (ATM) is DW
Have watched all three of the demo games, this game looks really cool and exciting. Time to buy a new rulebook then. XD
