Wolsung Boot Camp Bundles & Deal
It's going to be quite the weekend so stay tuned!
Which of the factions has taken your fancy?
Blogging At This Event:
First Wolsung Game Impressions With Ben & Rob
We talk with Ben & Rob who are getting stuck into their first game of Wolsung here at the Boot Camp and talk with them about what they think so far...
It involved a fair bit of sniping with one of Rob's poor souls from the Scylla gang getting shot through a window by an eagle-eyed opponent from the Ash & Oak. These fellows are surrounded!
Custom Scenarios In Wolsung: It's Boat Stealin' Time!
Two of our Boot Camp members have headed on over to our signature table and have come up with a scenario of their own with a narrative and awesome twist.
With some house rules in play, they're looking to try and steal the boat from the docks whilst having to fight off each other for this prize most assuredly laden down with goods and treasures they can sell on the black market.
Peter Wins the 4th Challenges Prize With Daring Gusto
Peter was able to swipe some more goodies from us as he completed another set of challenges starting off with a diving charge from a vampire...sounds pretty epic to us.
This was also followed by the same Vampire taking down two policemen and using his tactics to his advantage. This vampire needs to get a medal...and a new model!
Don't worry, we gave him Harriet Kinsley in the end!
Ending The Epic Custom Scenario
We come to the end of our Epic Boat Stealin' scenario that was playing out earlier in the day and see how it all played out.
So...what kind of custom scenarios have you designed for Wolsung?
The Theatrical Premiere Gets Crowded
Everyone is getting into the first scenario of the day that comes from the Wolsung Organised Play packs.
In this scenario players can attempt to collect tickets from the Ticket Booth however as the tickets sell out they become harder to obtain.
To get around this you can form base-to-base queues to make success more likely, however, these queues are turning nasty as brawls kick off and we've even see Hans Gerät get pushed off a walkway, falling to his death!
Loving Wolsung right now and seeing everyone getting into the fun fast gameplay.
How Have You Found Scenario One? Talking With Sam
We stop in with Sam and find out how he felt playing Scenario One from the Wolsung Boot Camp. This has meant lots of awesome ticket collection...and Sam is even dressed for the occasion.
Do you think this is the kind of scenario you'd like to play yourself?
Az Sits Down With Splendiferous Martin - Army Painter Method Engage!
Az also got a chance to sit down with marvellous and magnificent Martin who has been painting away on his models for Wolsung and really gone for it, the Army Painter method is in full force.
How would you paint your Wolsung miniatures and if you've already done so, make sure to share them in our forums!
Ven Rier Vacky Vaces!
So the races is in the thick of it now and we have an epic update coming of the BIG CLIMAX to finish off today's blog!
Here's some epic shots of the jumps, stunts and rams we saw as everyone battled for the "precious tickets".
Ven Rier Vacky Races Highlights & Winners!
It's time to hit the Ash & Oak Pub and 18 racers are thirsty to get there first.
The only problem is that there are only five tables available and it's an all-out dash or boosts and ramming to get their first!
i was away yesterday so busy catching up on day one, looking good guys!
i like the look of this game
I think I would go for The Scylla and Ash & Oak.
Is there a reason why there are 2 versions of the starter sets? Is it just two bundle deals?
They just come with different characters if you’d prefer to start playing using a different set of models
Your heroes can recruit a variety of different henchmen, makes for a different game each time you play.
There doesn’t appear to be much overlap between any of the starters, either. That’s nice if you’re trying to build up some options on a budget.
Morning y’all
Gotta say I’m liking the Inventors..
Amazing content! Love the work you all put in!
Wolsung looks amazing. I’ve really been wanting to play a steampunk tabletop game. The models look amazing and I don’t know what faction I’d play.
I’m excited for more great content today!!!
Looking at that shot of all the tables with the building terrain is awesome.
couldn’t afford a ticket before they sold out, but i got myself a Gigantic Golem and a bag of magnets to put together while i watch over the weekend, and for those who think a giant robot is a strange way to get into a new game, I say iv got a GIANT ROBOT.
Gigantic Golem is awesome, need to get mine assembled. Love my Ash and Oak and Van Rier are very interesting to play.
Ye man you should really consider getting one, super nice to clean up and get ready, im trying to finger out where to put some magnets on it, but a standard assembly would take no time. But come on Inventors all the way, although Ash &Oak do have lady Dorothy on the awesome bike thing, so not the worst choice.
Looking forward to seeing everyone get down and dirty with their teams.
Great looking minis and tables.
Who are the three special Boot Camp figures shown on the web site? What faction(s) do they work for? The halfing looks like an Inventor but could work for Scylla, the swordsman Ash and Oak and the lady Ven Rier?
Still no building painting tutorials?
Great to see all the coverage. Wish I could be there to really dig in.
Hmmm, minis are very neat.
I remember seeing a Wolsung game at Salute a couple of years back and it looked really great on the table. It’s always interested me.
Day One was great and really looking forward to day two here.
I need wolsung in my life, keep it up BOW.
Wolsung looks great!
Loving this….impulse control is fading….
Though trying to track down if its offered in the US
ah another weekend of being jealous of everyone at BoW
Day 1 was good fun. Day 2 will be more of the same. Really enjoying the coverage.
I’m jealous, too. But my Scylla are primed and ready to paint! So the Boot Camp had a positive side effect on my side!
Too bad i only realised this was happening. Was back home and in the country again and everything. !
