Flying Frog: Shadows Of Brimstone & Last Night On Earth + Win Beli’al!
We stopped in with the lovely folks from Flying Frog Productions to talk about what's new for the world of Shadows Of Brimstone and the amazing looking anniversary edition of Last Night On Earth.
Of course with such an epic model like Beli'al here to show off we couldn't not make him the prize you could win by commenting below!
Wyrd Games: Malifaux/The Other Side & Bayoux Bash – WIN A Malifaux Nightmare Set
We stopped in with the lovely folks from Wyrd Games to talk about all things Malifaux and The Other Side.
They are offering up an awesome Nightmare Set for you to win as a prize simply by commenting below but...
...the coolest thing for us was the look at Bayoux Bash!
Anti-Matter Games Talking DeepWars
Dawn stopped in with Anti-Matter Games to talk about them delving into the oceans with DeepWars.
This is a great game that we've had on our radar for a while so it's nice to see it here at the convention!
Take A Trip Into The Fallen Lands
We stop in to take a look at this game which caught our eye, Fallen Lands. The Post-Apocalypse is an awesome place (or the worst...) at the best of times and so this game really needed closer inspection.
Tell us what you think of this one in the comments below...
A Closer Look At Modiphius’ Star Trek Crews
Some of the models for you to take a look at from the guys at Modiphius who are taking you on a voyage upon your own ship in Star Trek: Adventures.
What do you think of these miniatures? Could you see yourself snapping up some of these for your tabletop games?
DeepWars Demo Game
Dawn & Gianna get stuck into the world of DeepWars and start playing around with sharks underwater.
Hopefully this gives you a taste of the game that we've been looking at for quite a while!
Ares Games Talk Sword & Sorcery & Much More + Win Sword & Sorcery
Dawn stops in with the folks from Ares Games to talk to them about the upcoming dungeon crawler extraordinaire that is Sword & Sorcery which comes with a massive dragon and plenty of epic heroes.
As well as that they are talking through some more of their game library but we have a copy of Sword & Sorcery to give away in the comments!
It Is The End Of Days (Well, Day Four) & Gen Con Is Over!
We have had a lot of fun here at Gen Con and can't wait to see what you guys make of the content over the next few days.
Remember we have plenty of competitions for you to get involved in and we want to hear your thoughts on loads of awesome stuff that you've glimpsed, or maybe we missed.
Dark age please!!!!!
Pandemic Legacy S2, please. If you could film yourselves getting the prologue demo that would be outstanding 🙂
last day so do what you want rather than what we want
Don’t listen to this man. He’s gone crazy….
Any previews of Scythe Expansion with the airships?
When are you going to get to the ‘Bob Ross Art of Chill’ game?
More Star Wars Legion! A Lets play, interview with FFG staff or just maybe peoples reactions as they are playing the demo.
We have a bit of a teaser coming up for Star Wars: Legion showing off some of the mechanics.
We had an unfortunate technical issue but we caught most of our short game intro.
Need Wrath of Kings info.
Some dark age or relic knights pretty please
I know you talked to Dave Lewis, from Hawk Wargames yesterday, but I was wondering if it would be possible to get a teaser or short demo of Dropzone Commander 2nd Edition. At least something showing off what they have so far for new mechanics would be neat!
I hope you 2 had a great trip.
WOT!?! Day 4 already? But you’ve barely scratched the surface!
I think that BoW should send a few more people to cover it 😉
Those wyrd minis are great!
If there is still time could you swing by Dream Pod 9 and Ironclad games? Would like to see what’s happening with Heavy Gead Blitz, Jovian Cronicals, and All Quiet on the Martian Front. Thanks.
I am sat on the sofa looking forward to a good catch up.
great coverage of the con, thank you BoW team for your efforts
I liked the interview with Adam, that Oblivion Mosquito is fantastic 🙂
Did I miss it or was there no coverage for Wild West Exodus
Thank you guys for all the coverage!
Thanks for all the fantastic coverage guys, made my weekend
I second that. The coverage has been fun. Hopefully, there more in the can, that might release over the next few weeks. Demos of upcoming games, for example.
Thank you for Gencon coverage
The Donner Pary ad is rather horrifying…
I really need to get to GenCon one year. Wonder if the wife would like a holiday in Indianapolis….
This was awesome!
Was great to meet some of the B.O.W. crew @ Gencon! Still didn’t actually verify that Ben isn’t just a head and a torso… but everyone else seemed alright =p
