Birds with armour don’t fly. Flying birds are not armoured! Didn’t school teach them anything!? (Why do I feel like a scratched record? oO)
Birds with armour do fly… they call them Valkyrie in norse mythology 🙂
those don’t fly, they ride and tell one of those girls that you think of them as birds… I dare you!
Call the choosers of the slain a girl and you could be in trouble 🙂
Tell this mantra to most MMO’s. Birds and other flying creatures, in order to fly, should NOT have more armor/HP’s than their terrestrial counterparts. Unless they’re of the roc variety, of course.
Drowned Earth was one of those I almost backed… but didn’t. I like the setting and it’s one of those rare games that uses water as more than slowing down movement. Some nice minis in that box, but metal is probably my least favourite to assemble… drilling holes in limbs is a pain (literally sometimes). Resin is less bad for drilling, but so brittle. Lately I prefer plastics. Plus side though… small force size in drowned earth, so not too much assembly required and the diversity of models means you don’t end up painting the same troop type repeatedly. I’ll… Read more »
Looking at getting some deamos of DE – even before then I now know I need that Elephant!
A quick point on the new style unboxing videos if I may. I like the whole OTT rebranding and camera setup you have going but the banners at the start are a bit of an issue. To be honest they always have been. Whenever you start the piece you refer to the box/items in front of you….and they are covered by the graphics. Not a complaint, just something that strikes me every time I watch one of these.
@lloyd some feedback mate to look into 🙂
thanks @dt73 much appreciated mate 🙂
The Wayfarer Faction was the “Genesplicer-Pledge Level”, these characters where all concepts by the Genesplicer Backers (My concept was Bluewing… I mean, Chicken Boo). The Genesplicer Backers have had a lot fun to create these characters together with James. There is a lot of background to each of these characters. The concept for Aronax was drawn from his Genesplicers friend who sadly passed away, he was a LARPer and the sculpt is real close to a photo of him. So the Genesplicer of Aronax dedicated that mini to his friend. Bluewing isn´t able to fly, but he is a mechanic… Read more »
I love the variety of the characters for this game.
Kalhana has to be my favorite of these figures. Using the trunk to belt feed the gun is great.
I like the artwork on the cards. The minis look like they’d really suit a bright, even cartoony paintjob.
love seeing the other factions from the drowned earth
I play Artefacters for the Drowned Earth but also picked got this box for Mercenaries or for a second faction when teaching friends to play. I will say that people will have to check their card for Aronax as there is a misprint on his Shotgun; it is supose to be Rng 8/12 Dam 2/4 Spray; not Rng 16/16 Dam 8/12
