nice models
I’m always interested by asian themed game. I might have to check that starter set next year.
These are very nice, and they could give me an excuse to buy some themed terrain. ?
Neat stuff, Bushido always does charaterful sculpts
Beautiful sculpts. GCT always do a great job of bringing their figures to life
Very nice miniatures. What I know of the new clan makes them sound very similar to the crab clan from L5R which is awesome as crab were my favourite clan. My wife wants to learn bushido this month so I could add these to my savage wave and silvermoon forces.
Have been looking at this or test of Honor. But the models are tipping the scales in Bushidos favour…
Love the Asian feel of the game. Interesting to hear about a starter set for the game.
Looks Cool
I love the Japanese art style
Models and game play have always interested me. Hopefully 3rd edition and the new two player starter will help breakdown the barrier to entry.
Those look really nice.
Such a great game. Needs more coverage on the site. A themed week would be amazing. Sam can bring out his Japanese outfits.
Glad to see Bushido is still going strong.
Played a demo game of this, it’s a great game.
Love Bushido, exciting about version 3 and possible starter set
very interesting design of those minis
Fantastic looking models! The whole line exudes Japanese mythology.
Definitely need to check this out.
I love the design aesthetic of this game so much!
This game definitely looks interesting.
Asian/Japanese themed games usually get my attention.
Great minis!
Bushido is such a sexy game!
I play a lot of different games but Bushido is the one I’d choose if I could only play one.
Very nice stuff
I love most of japanes models, this one looks incredibly good
Now this is what we call amazing minis..
Cool looking minis.
Thanks for highlighting this game as I was not familiar with it.
Figures look lovely and I am woefully short of oriental themed games.
More mini’s for me to wreck with my painting
always wanted to try this
those are cool
These minis just seem so exciting to paint
I haven’t gotten to try Bushido yet, but the models sure look good.
Love the look of these figs
Great looking figure’s.
Their stuff is very pretty. Something I’ll look in to one day when I’ve ran out of stuff to paint
I’d wait for the coming 2 player starter sets. 🙂
Very cool. I have been thinking I need a Samurai/Feudal Japan game.My have to check out the new version when it releases.
looking forwars to the new minis and the new rulebook
GCT’s Bushido stuff looks very cool.
already have the Minamoto on the way…can’t wait to start tetsubo-whacking things!
good luck with them. still saving up for mine.
Wonder if I should get my belly tattooed like that…. 😮
Their models always look really good.
Sounds and looks interesting.
always like Japanese myth
cool models
To my shame I still haven’t managed to jemmy this game onto my project list. Maybe third edition…
My favourite skirmish game by a mile
I really must get my Ryu & Ito stuff painted up….
Bushido is a great game. I play Kage Ninjas and Tengu and both are very cool models and great thematic rules. Its a small board skirmish game so great to play if you have limited space! Looking forward to new version!
Love their models. Need to break out my bird men again soon
I stopped by the booth and was pretty impressed with what I saw. Would definitely be interested in starting this one. I liked the snake-themed faction in particular.
Looks fantastic!
Can’t wait to get my Minamoto set! 🙂
Love the Minamoto! I’ve only got Tengu so far and I’m having a tough time deciding if I’ll be buying into Kage Kaze Zoku (Ninjas) or Minamoto as my second faction. I will have all three at some point though! LOVE this game and it’s got some of the best models I’ve ever seen!
Oh man, oh man more figures I want to paint. There’s a bear for saki’s sake.
this game is pretty fun and has amazing minis i’d be happy if i won 😛 i already own some of it mostly the geisha style minis they look so cool
Bushido is a game I wish more people played in my area.
Love the sculpts
Fun looking faction
New faction looks excellent!
I’m eagerly waiting for the new edition, especially for the new starters.
Since i don’t like Manga styled games but always wanted to try one of the far eastern styled systems Bushido turned up on my radar a couple of times.
Maybe i give this a go.
love my rokan monks.
I have a profound weakness for samurai miniatures. I once almost did Space Marines for 40K.
tetsubos, hard hitting faction
Great looking minis
Werebear Samurai, where can I sign?
the models are sweet
Bushido has a gorgeous range of minis, I have had my eye on them for quite some time! Sadly nobody local carries their range…
Nice new faction. Really good game.
Cool. Bushido is next on my list of games to play/paint. The mechanics seem super cool!
i also have close ties to bears
So it”s been a long time coming but finally they are here. This has to be my favorite miniature game and I’ve played most of them so Bushido is highly recommended by me. If anybody is interested the rules, character cards, and basic faction strategy outlines are free to download so there’s no excuse not to try this wonderful little game. It’s a small but dedicated company that deserves a chance to prove itself worthy of your gaming dollars. Thanks BoW for giving them a little love. Now only the Eagle remains.
One can never have enough samurai, historical or fantasy!
Cool models!
Nice models ! Discovering it
Definitely great models
私は武士が大好き
Cool minis!
Good to see GCT still moving forward with Bushido
Always loved Bushido’s model line.
Snake bird things are interesting. Can’t say I know much Japanese mythology.
Samurai, that’s not to like?
The Bear Samurai! Nice!
those minis have great detail work
After years playing Prefecture and Cult (with some Ninjas courtesy of RoK KS) I think I’m ready for a new faction…
looks nice.
Nice.
Wonderful models and paint jobs.
i was really interested in bushido but our community is so small that cant aford another skirmish game, also lots of small communities, so unfortunately cant jump in too, btw cool models nice paintjob and great to hear they still release material, bravo.
The game looks good
Sadly no sound on my device, but beautiful minis as always
Looks fun
This is good stuff
This looks really cool
these all look nice
this is beautiful!
Those are great looking models, their studio painter is amazing as well, those tattoos are unreal!
These look good
Nice Models. Not enough japanese style minis around in general.
