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:
Gaming Waits For No Wolsung Fanatic!
We've already got people getting stuck into their games right now and enjoying some early tutorials on the way Wolsung works.
With that in mind, have you gone over to their Downloads section and got yourself a copy of the rulebook yet?
Meet The Inventors
We continue our faction chats from the world of Wolsung as we take a look at The Inventors and find out what makes them tick like clockwork.
They have some fascinating characters in their midst as well as some wild inventions too.
It’s Prize Time For Adrian!
Adrian has won himself a copy of Lord James Foley here at the event, a Henchman who can work with any faction.
He was able to dive and kill one of his foes and hunted down his enemies, wiping them off the tabletop - this was a lot of effort but he walks away with an awesome prize.
Wolsung Ambassador Chat – Bringing Steampunk To The Masses
It's time to discuss the Wolsung Ambassador program which gets budding steampunk fans into the game thanks to a network of awesome demo gamers and more who make it their job to bring Wolsung to the masses.
If you're interested in this program you can find out more about it HERE.
Feature Tables - Lukasz Table Tactics & Design Chat
We take a look at some of the tables that we set up here for the Boot Camp and discuss them tactically with Lukasz to get an idea of how they play, and what you should consider when it comes to building tables yourself.
Wolsung is a game of deep narrative and so you want to tell a story with your tabletops AND you want to include some great ways to create cinematic events too. Height and close proximity battles are key!
Meet The Triad Of Lotus Dragon
It's time to embrace some of your oriental roots with this faction as we take a look at the Triad Of Lotus Dragon and how they fit into this world of steampunk and magic that is Wolsung.
Could they be the faction for you?
Theatre Premiere Scenario Gets Underway
It's time to fight over tickets and see if you can get your gang to the Theatre Premier! It's very British and people are going to be queuing but there's also plenty of battles going on to.
This is quite an interesting style of scenario which may end up gifting you with some awesome goodies!
Catching Up With Speedy Gaz & His Marvellous Painting
We think that sounds a little like a cool shop or emporium from the world of Wolsung, don't you think?
Take a look at some of the progress that Gaz has made with these models and how things are coming along...
It's Time To Introduce Scenario Two
It's time to race towards those ticket booths once again as well as get to killing in order to get your hands on ways to bet on the upcoming race...yes, you hear about a race there!
We think it's rather awesome to have more of these narrative scenarios playing out. Winner winner, chicken dinner!
What's On The Board Miss Ford!
We take a look at what the scores on the board are...Miss Ford. Well, Justin anyway.
We hope that these are going to play out into some great goodies for folks AND an interesting idea of how the rest of the scenarios will play out.
Midway Through Scenario Two - Discussing The Game With Matt
We step in during a game and talk with Matt from the Boot Camp to find out how he is finding scenario two and what kind of tactics he's been able to employ...
...and of course, what kind of tactics have been used on him too! Would you have any tips for Matt?
Meet The Scylla & Become Part Of The Family!
It's time for us to meet one of the newer factions for the world of Wolsung in The Scylla. They are the Halfling Mafia for all intents and purposes and come with some underhanded tricks for the tabletop.
They also have some of the coolest looking miniatures out there...and it's hard not to consider painting them in Dick Tracy colours really isn't it?
Catch Up With Lukasz - How Are People Finding The Game?
We catch up with Lukasz to talk about how people are finding the world of Wolsung and what he thinks of the scenarios we've been playing out.

5th Wolsung Challenge Prize Won By Nick
We have another winner from the Boot Camp for ticking off some of the challenges from the board as we say hello to Nick and find out what happened.
...do you have this kind of achievements and challenges set up when you play big games at clubs and stores?
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. !
