Essen SPIEL '18 Live Blog - Friday
Talking D&D, TANKS & More With Gale Force Nine + Win Prizes!
We stopped in with Gordon from Gale Force Nine to talk about what they have been showing off here at the show and delving into the wealth of new goodies that you can get a hold of for their Dungeons & Dragons range.
Win Vault Of Dragons PLUS 2x D&D Paint Sets (Heroes & Monsters)
As well as the awesome range of unique Dungeons & Dragons characters from a variety of livestreams and the expanded universe they have also been working on some great stuff for historical gamers with TANKS.
This new version of TANKS is working its way onto shelves soon and we’ll be covering it over in the studio in the near future too.


































You can never have enough paints. Or Dragons. XD
Unless it’s lead based. ?
delicious lead…
Or TANKS!
support from d&d just gets better
Wow the sculpts look amazing never really looked at the D&D range but will definitely have to investigate and possibly pick some of those minis up.
Vault of Dragons will be added to my shelf. Either I will buy a copy or win one for free!
I hadn’t realised just how big some of those minis were.
Looking good!!!
Paints and Dragons .. Yes plz 😀
paints!!!!! need it for all my minis
Liking the Nolzur’s product line, the minis are pretty good!
Personally I’d like to see some of the Dragonlance miniatures from the old modules… Goldmoon, Tanis, Raistlin and companions…. And Takhisis of course… In both dragon and human form.
Of course I’d need some paints to go with them 🙂
Dragons and Tanks… I need more paint.
Vault Of Dragons is on my xmas wish list. I loved the Sons of Anarchy game play and I believe Vault Of Dragons retheme is awesome. really want this title.
Impressed with all they are doing.
The D&D minis look really good.
Nice little segment, so like the tanks modern look on vault of dragons now that would be a grandad and granddaughter game, we both love our dragons.
Those Vault of Dragons sculpts looks amazing. Those really show both WotC and WK how things should be done.
wowo those paint sets look awesome
Paints and dragons what more do you need?
Yeah maybe some tanks.
Brushes?
😉
Yes, that would be handy, will be easier than painting with my finger.
Just to mess with people, I think the Monster paints should have come with a bearowl instead of an owlbear. ?
The D&D minis look good, never knew how big some of them were; was that Orcus next to the dwarf on one shelf?
Paints and Dragons – the ultimate combination.
Still got Star Trek Ascendancy on my shopping list, fantastic game.
A cool looking game mimicking the D&D experience. It’s amazing even after spending two days tracking through the halls, there is still stuff we missed! Hopefully a night of coverage videos and we’ll be ready to target a few key places on Sunday!
dragons and paints = 🙂
Love the minis, excitable chat.
Like the look of Vault of Dragons, and everyone needs more paint, right?
Really like how Gale Force Nine is treating their D&D line.
Great to see new Tanks arriving. And of course more paints are always useful..
I don’t think gale force nine gets the attention they deserve for their terrain. Great quality and great prices.
Dragons and paints are something I will never stop buying 🙂
I’m a major fan of dungeon crawlers…but I have yet to play any of these D&D games. They look really fun, they’re pretty much on top of my buy list right now.
DnD Vault of Dragons + Paints…
I’d really love those!
So i hope to win…
I don’t play D&D but this stuff really makes it seem more accessible. Maybe one day!
Thd Vault of Dragons looks interesting, and I’m keen to play Tanks now its set in the Cold War period. Though what interests me the most are the paint sets.
Paints and minis included = total hobby package
vault of dragons looks good, and I didn’t realise they are doing monster cards great idea
I love seeing everywhere D&D goes these days!
I played Vault of Dragons last month at Baltimore Comic Con, lots of fun. Mechanics were really cool using all your D&D dice for the game.
tanks
got to love D&D. started me also into the hobby
That owlbear mini looks nice
more paint, more fun 😉
More Tanks please
Loving DnD and friends recently got me into tanks so keen to see the modern version. But I wish we’d heard about when expansions were coming out for their Dr Who game too.
Paint sets look nice. I love their D&D releases
Owlbears, more Owlbears that’s what we need
You must gather your party before venturing forth
You must gather your party before venturing forth
You must gather your party before venturing forth
You must gather your party before venturing forth
Its been 15 years and still I hear that every time.
The DnD guys at my gaming group would love this
That paint set with owl bear is great.
Ooooooo paint sets would be great for me. Need paint badly.
I could always use more paint!
Yes! Vault of Dragons is almost upon us! Can’t wait to try this out.
Always quality stuff from GF9, great company!
One word, Tanks!
Ooo, the models are very nice! Hadn’t spotted these before.
Good to see some more stuff coming out for D&D.
Great monsters….and new points would be Nice!
GF9 has certainly developed into a major supplier in the business. Their D&D stuff is impressive, and Tanks is great fun. Planning to pick up the Modern version to try out some Current conflicts.
The new D&D stuff looks amazing.
dragons !
hmmm paints d&d got to love them
That owlbear looks amazing
Very good prize!
Wow, their line of D&D products looks really nice. One question – whatever happened to GF9’s ALIENS boardgame? I thought it was in the works for 2018.
Looking forward to TANKS
So many grey mini’s on my shelfs. I’m looking for some paints. do you have some for me?
Nice prize!
GF9 makes great stuff!
Tanks is a fun & fast playing game.
Really like the DND stuff from GF9 the models are excellent, and combined with the AP that would awesome 🙂
Great looking stuff here. You just can’t have enough paints 🙂
Those D&D minis are gorgeous
Tanks look to be a nice introduction to historical gaming. And the owlbear looks fantastic
Tanks, Dragons, paints, miniatures. I suppose it’s one of the best booths to visit. Primed miniature inside the paint set – awesome idea!
How are their paints? Iv only tried Vallejo and Citadel line so far.
I think tanks could be so much cooler if they followed the GW killteam model of having more small buys an character packs…possibly including terrain. build your collection and gaming table up to full FoW scale.
Nice starter set (I want my giant miniature hamster).
Will the paint survive the trip to Canada during the winter with temperature so cold that snowmen knock on your door to come in.
Tanks in the wild!!! John, catch them!!! ?
Waiting on tanks real ease pleeeease hurry lol
Another fan of D&D here…
Paints. Now with added owlbear!
Cool stuff but, I wonder what they are preparing to do with Dune license. I’m waiting for something awesome 😀
Getting excited about this new stuff!
I preordered Vault of of dragons. Looks really nice.
Dragons!!! Ho!!!
This past year I started playing D&D and this looks like a great game! I could use all of this stuff!
love the owlbear and vault of the dragon
Love the Owlbear! <3
Lots of great stuff there, the models look great, the paint sets are awesome and tanks looks interesting. Love their 15mm terrain but my favorite thing from GF9…their wine and cheese tokens. HAHA!
One of these days I should really take the D&D plunge and not just watch it on YouTube.
Gale Force Nine have been doing great work with the D&D IP.
Vault of dragons sounds awesome!
D&D range is definitely getting better and better
I love the dragons very coool
More paints means more minis get painted!
Minsc is an awesome character, he was fantastic in Baldurs Gate. Those paintsets are great.
