Blackball Games Reboot AE-WWII: European Theatre
November 27, 2012 by brennon
Blackball Games are looking to reboot the Alternate Events - World War II: European Theatre game and they have put together a Kickstarter Campaign to help get them the funding they need. Check out some of the miniatures below...
Above are some of the Starter Sets for the game, looking into the weird and wonderful world of war. They are certainly drawing on a lot of cool mythos for this game, and its especially good seeing the Greenman on the British side!
If you're looking for even more of an expansion to your weird world war then they also have a selection of Experimental Detachments to help. You can check out all of the fantastic looking miniatures on their Kickstarter page.
Also grab the Quick Start Rules & The Kickstarter Campaign Mission so you can try the game out for yourself!
The money will all go towards publishing a new rulebook, remodeling the miniatures and anything left over will just allow them to add more to the vision.
Do you think you will go pledge?
Please not yet another Weird War II themed game…
This one will have a hard time to compete with the superior theme of Dystopian Legions I think.
Well, Dystopian Legions is steampunk. You can check out the Quick Start Rules and a sample campaign I’ve added in above from the Kickstarter updates.

Also it’s not “another” weird war game as AE-WW2 has been around for quite a while now, it’s just that recently Blackball Games bought the rights to it 🙂
meffi has it right — this is the ORIGINAL alternate universe WW2 game. It’s already a fantastic game and has a great player base. I’m glad to see it back in the hands of one of the original developers (Matt Hope) and as Blackball Games they’ve done great work on other games, so I have high hopes for their updates to this one.
I’ve already pledged and plan on picking up the American Experimental unit. I love those robots!
