Veskit Posted July 12, 2017 Report Share Posted July 12, 2017 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! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiccus Posted July 12, 2017 Report Share Posted July 12, 2017 Nah people here tried it and found it to be not exactly what they were looking for. Lots of 9th age here though. Also we miss you too 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Munkie Posted July 12, 2017 Report Share Posted July 12, 2017 I've never played it, but from what I read of the rules and armies, it seemed like different brands of vanilla ice cream competing for the title of Best Vanilla. Where's my pralines and cream dammit?! WHERE?!?! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherbert Posted July 13, 2017 Report Share Posted July 13, 2017 As Wiccus and Munkie said, we tried it and mostly hated it. 9th age offers a much better large scale fantasy army sized game while retaining flavor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMGraham Posted July 13, 2017 Report Share Posted July 13, 2017 DAN! Play Ninth Age! Kings of War was fun enough, but scratched an entirely different itch than Fantasy did. Ninth Age does a really nice job of doing Warhammer, but better and more balanced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veskit Posted July 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2017 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* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Veskit Posted July 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2017 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.

I think it's evolved beyond 8.5 at this point. Flanks and rears matter, magic is toned down (maybe a little too much at this point actually), rules are clear and concise, and armies are actually very well-balanced against each other. You should definitely check it out in its current form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
