Just so you guys on here know, most Kings of War is over on the Pacific Northwest facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/groups/KingsOfWarPacificNorthwest/

There is apparently about 15 guys from around the Vancouver/Portland area to play games with (not me, I'm from the other Vancouver north of the border)

was fun to watch the cast! I hope I do better than the prediction for my game lol.

heh, while I appreciate how close we actually are to each other, it's worth noting none of you guys are coming up my way to play games either. ;) 

And once again, that means playing what amounts to 8.5e not a big fan of 8th in general to look to keep playing it.

heh, that would be going back to playing 8th.  I hated that edition, only stomached it because i liked the people.  As far as 9th age, no one up here plays it (which is even less than Kings of War) *sigh*

I'll also see about arranging something for the Lower Mainland even if it's just in Vern's barn!

Hey guys,

I was wondering if any of you guys are playing Kings of War? There is groups in Vancouver and Seattle, and we were looking at doing bi-monthly meet ups, and if any of you guys are playing, then Bellingham would be a nice central place for that to happen.  

BTW I MISS YOU GUYS!

We are indeed doing 8th, 1650 ptd 2 hr rounds 4 on Sat and 2 on Sun. 

Corey I will definitely have your mug lol

Should be fixed now.

Thanks will check out what happened to it.

It also looks like many of the sculpts are already ready for production, so it's very well possible they could ship early on this one.

So initially I was thinking the timing was due to wanting it all out before GenCon so it can be the 2017 unveiling, but the Dec 2017 delivery date means either the kickstarter will deliver early, or backers will have it in hand for 8ish months before it's general release for GenCon 2018.  Both are a bit puzzling to me and may effect my choice to back.

How did it go?

Paid!

It's Dan Miner, so that joke falls flat ;) And yes I was wearing a suit.

So I've been playing Kings of War up here, but it's hard to get any traction with it, I'm hoping 9th age can do that.  

BUT.....

I really dig the not having to re-rank up models post game, the fixed unit sizes makes the game quick to play and re-setup and gives lots of tactical play.  

I have heard 9th age is quite a bit like 8th, except with a few tweaks to reduce magic and other small rules changes, that the biggest thing is the rebalancing of the army books.  Is this true?

Any way to play this with kings of war style bases? Mark casualties with dice etc?  I tend to play armies of the largish size so going back to having to re-rank units of 40ish doesn't thrill me in the slightest, and to be frank I enjoyed 7th edition much more than 8th (although I'll fully admit it was the super crazy magic phases that were my biggest peeve).

Someone sell me on this game, I've downloaded books, but struggle to motivate myself to read them to potentially get into yet another game that is flash in the pan.

lots happened on the ratkin list depending on your pdf.  brutes with missiles gone, clawshots lost big shield lots of tweaks to different units in rules/points (up and down).   Death Engine is pretty different, no warlock on a death engine.  All small stuff, but definitely enough different.

Space has been expanded, we can go 50 people comfortably, and probably could fit up to 70 in a squeeze!  If you got friends that were disappointed on missing out let them know!

After a whirlwind couple of days, we are sold out!

I am trying to add a bit more space to add a couple more guys, I'll keep you guys posted!

lol we don't guarantee any exchange rate, but if you buy Canadian dollars today for Wet coast, you'll do just fine! ;)

Did you buy a ticket?  send an email to me veskit@gmail.com and I'll sort it out.

I apologize if I am just doing a gap of name to handle.

Just a note that we have 32 people signed up, but spots aren't locked until paid!!  We have 19 paid people already! if you haven't paid yet you should! and if you're on the fence you should come!

I'm jealous, pre-ordered my digital.  But not available yet, I'm guessing you were a kickstarter?

Tokens!
