Wild West Exodus Faction Chat: Outlaws!
February 23, 2015 by warzan
In our first faction chat for Wild West Exodus Warren and Sean from Outlaw Miniatures saddle up with the Outlaws, the anti-heroes of the WWX universe.
The Outlaws are a faction full of cool characters that will be your pal one minute then the next have a revolver pressed into your back demanding your valuables. They're never short of firepower and include iconic figures such as Billy the Kid and Jesse James, one of the lead characters in the WWX background.
Stay tuned throughout the week as we'll be having a look at each of the factions found in the world of Wild West Exodus.
Warren reckons this is a cool faction but what do you think?

































I absolutely love the look of this, cyber punk cowboys.., ummm yes please!
Outlaws are badass’s can’t wait to see John Wesley Hardin, and my other 2 favorite outlaws come to WWX Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, it would give me another Outlaw gang to build.
I’m in.
Outlaw faction seems cool, but I am looking forward to seeing the Union or some of the new kickstarter factions.
Ooo… “Let’s be bad guys”
When will the kickstarter be live?
March 1st 🙂
Love the look, and ….. the Reb’s are coming !!
Cant wait fir the warrior nation chat. Bring it on
@tresillian I think it goes live on 1st of march (not positive though)
I love this game. My son plays outlaws and I play Lawmen. Fairly easy to learn, and the activation systems mean you don’t have a long wait until its your turn. Highly recommend trying it out.
Looking forward to seeing all this weeks features, might be what I need to finally jump into this game / kickstarter.
This game looks really nice, I cant help thinking of firefly whenever is see it though. On the plus side they do sell the crazy eight! I would really love to give it a go
Really cool bad boys, but what is an underboss?
Basically it’s a rank. Troops and characters in the game are split into Bosses (the leaders), Underbosses (the deputies), Sidekicks (Other notable characters) and Hired Hands (the rank and file). There’s also Light and Heavy Support units. Light Support are either single models, like the Gatling Gun Trooper, or smaller vehicles, like the Iron Horses. Heavy Support are the really big tanky-looking things!
Badges, we don’t need any stinking badges!
I really really like the Iron horses. Awsome Game.
Wool WWX week! I’ve been waiting for this to start
Wool? Darn auto correct. That’s meant to be Woo 😛
Love this game
Love the cook
The outlaws are cool and the other factions have some good qualities but if you really want to be BAD get some Enlightened! Nothing like having walking bombs that explode on command.
I just want to assemble the Earps…also Holliday…f*ck it, I want to assemble everything.
Love the sculpts. I will definitely hit the kickstarter.
Looks like an interesting game looking forward to seeing more.
These do look excellent…could sneak a few into malifaux 🙂
What is needed…the regulators from young guns, but with the sci fi feel. Plus, every outlaw gang needs a Dirty Steve!
looks awesome, colour me interested
I really like the coverage. I am looking forward seeing the new factions.
Spookily enough, my mate’s just dug out his starter set and we’re going to give it a go this week. Fantastic! Looking forward to the Enlightened. Yee haw!
Been meaning to get into this for a while, looks great
I’m probably going to end up wanting every faction by then of this week, choices will have to be made….
I have look at what is commin for the kikstarter and the 2 factions that interested me are the confederete and the Dark nation, but in the pledge levels i can see a special edition starter box, so i would love to know if it’s going to be 2 factions that are commin for the kikstarter or if it’s going to be Lawmen vrs Outlaws (witch i want to get anyway), and if it’s from the new factions , what will be the 2 of them ?
I must admit the Free shipping on their web site is very tempting for me so i can get in to the game faster and get my 2 favorite factions on the starter box Lawmen and Outlaws
Outlaw is my number one faction, and i am surprise that Justin is playing the Union Faction , because looking at the Chief mini i would simply said ”IT IS JUSTIN” so Justin i let you know that now you will be a part of my Outlaw mini and as soon as i buy this mini, it will be name Just like you ” Justin” 😉
This game looks fantastic :o)
Love the look of Wild West Exodus. Where can you get this stuff?
Definitly, one of the best looking miniatures in the market IMHO. Hope the next KS do it very well.
Been considering this game for a while now, think the kickstarted is the time to jump in
This game keeps getting better and better, i think I’m going to enjoy this week 🙂
Thanks for the intro to that video fellas, I laughed and spat coffee all over myself!
I’m liking the look of Wild West Exodus more and more, I’m at least going to have to add a few of the minis to my cabinet if nothing else.
have to admit i love the two cyber dogs. the outlaws seem to be the most wild west feeling faction.

Damnit didn”t mean to post that link.
And no edit function? >_<
In any case looks like it'll be a fascinating game and kickstarter. I may join it.
Looks really cool, but so many skirmish games right now. Oof.
Really like the look of this and great video.
Am I right in thinking this is a small scale skirmish game. Like 10 or so models a side?
Depends on the points value or dollar value even. for example Jesse James is 200 dollars but a cc outlaw is 20
From all the thing i have reed I would say no in this game, 10 is like a minimum mini to play with so i would say it’s a semi Skirmish miniature game
Looking good! 🙂
These look awesome!
I’m curious about the Kickstarter, I like what I have seen so far.
looks nice !
Gonna take the plunge on WWX this year.
Real nice stuff.
I would wish they would talk more about mechanics though.
Cool minis though
My first outlaw starter arrived today. I’m going to take it to Bracknell forest gamers now and get as many as possible to back the ks
This looks very cool. I need to find a place that has demo games for this one.
@carlos13th
From all the thing i have reed I would say no in this game 10 is like a minimum mini to play with so i would say it’s a semi Skirmish miniature game
I just need to get the terrain, then I’m gonna be all over this game
The Ironhide looks stunning! Love it!
Just makes me think of Trigun
This game is great
I am trying to get this started in my area, Lots of mini-wargamers around, and I just love these models.
Always loved the idea of a game with Cowboys. Having a duel and bar room brawls.
Love watching you guys. Keep up the great work.
The game looks fantastic. But I have one question since there is a unstoppable cyborg Jesse James is there a Robert Ford miniature?
They’ve shared the art for Robert Ford, so the model will be coming at some point. 🙂
This looks awesome
Just started reading the first novel for a bit of background so far nobodys what you would a good guy
Great start, can’t wait to see what else is up for Wild West Exodus Week.
Game looks very cool
I hope there is more than one video a day….I love this game!
I love the look of these guys! Just a shame I would do such a terrible job at painting them.
This looks like a great game. Would love a shot at getting some free stuff.
This game looks pretty cool… I love the concept.. However I am kinda waiting for the Confederacy to come along although the outlaws look amazing.
Wasn’t really sure about WWE at first but starting to like it 🙂
Have plenty of minis from other games currently but this system an minis look very nice
that looks great
Been a WWXr since the First KS… have loved the ride ever sense… Beast of War actually turned me onto the game through the On the Table report of the first KS…
The game is a Scalable skermish to full army game… so those who want a skirmish game the $500 level game can be your wheel house… heck some WWXrs like to play no hired hands and only play hero models… it makes the game a blast with all the special powers and tactics… you can also scale up to $2000 plus games and bring in the big vehicles… or dozens of hired hands with free heavy weapons… and light vehicles…
With up to 10 factions the game will have so many options for gaming groups to play out battles and skirmish brawls.. I built a saloon big enough to duel it out inside! sneak peaks of the WIP on Facebook group “The Dark Council”… Someone asked what an Underboss is… it is the second teir of models… Bosses are your general… Underboss is your stronger named heroes… sidekicks are cheaper heroes with a smaller # of powers… Hired Hands are basic troops… Light Support are heavy weapon hired hands and light vehicles… Heavy Support are large vehicles… also you can check out the Quick Start rules on the WWX website PDF download… and all the model stats are on the web store so you can even try out a proxy game!
Good start to the week
These minis are just L-O-V-E-L-Y 🙂
the time there i might jump into this game is getting closer and closer
The miniatures in wwx are beautiful
Love the look of Jessie James! It’s the sort of miniature that would drag you into a game by itself.
Looking at the kick starter…plans I am seriously considering going the whole hog on this…
Need to find a group near me. Love the look.
That is the big drawback to these new games, they look great and are real fun, but if you want to play you have to start your own group.
I still have to paint my outlaws, My lawmen are mostly painted, I have some later purchases to work through. Me and a buddy have talked about me showing him how to play.
My other buddy is supposed to have a group starting at the store he owns, but they haven’t started yet. They want him to stock the game, but he is wary since he has no customers at his sotre for it. Once the group gets playing it will be another story, but he wants butts in seats before he pulls the trigger.
Best game in the ‘verse.. shiny.. count me in !!
Looking forward to the Kickstarter. This game looks awesome.
ive bought the rulebook and am waiting for the Rebs, hoping the kickstarter will have them in the limited edition starter set. Either way next week is going to be an expensive armchair shopping event
I’m so psyched for this game. I’m building up lawmen myself, though originally I wanted to play outlaws.
I’ m wondering if and how Billy’s gang plays different from the James/Younger gang?
Oh no, drawn into another game…
Whoop! Only 1 more sleep for those that suffer from insomnia until KS launch 😀
Been waiting for this kickstarter
The first thing I thought when I saw these was “Sweet Deadlands mini’s”. If the game is half as good as the figures, will be a treat to play.
Looks cool, but who appeared first on the scene, was it Chef or was it Justin?
Definitely in for the Kickstarter, but which faction to choose?
I highly recommend one of each 😀 I have all but the Enlightened faction atm (I will be getting them via the KS) and the miniatures are solo cool. Ive even started using my Warrior Nation in Mordheim as a Norse faction 🙂
They really are some great models.
can’t wait to try this game
I can’t wait to see more Golden Army 😀
Damm, there go next months money. The setting reminds me of an very old cartoon. Brave Star.
lol, aye. Some people painter up their Lawmen in that style! 😀
Looks great – game on
Looks great – game on.
Looking good. I’m leaning towards the Watchers for myself in the upcoming kickstarter, but I like the look of what I see here, particularly the chef character, it’s pretty much what I wear to work amazingly accurate 😉
Looks like a great faction I may play them
After playing against Jesse James I found out the hard way just how good he is with those guns
That combined shot hurts!!
The Ironhide is interesting. If I ever get one it MUST be painted red 😀
I like the sound of the outlaws, but the other factions seem more interesting to me, Would love to hear more about them.
Cool, this game looks great
This is such a great game. This prize would be fantastic to get me started.
Looks nice, really nice – but have to say I don’t think I’ll make any serious investment till I’ve read some of the books. Mini’s look great, but it’ll be the fluff and the game mechanics that’ll really sell this to me as I’m not a massive one for skirmish games normally… still. this could tempt me round!
Missed the 1st KS and have just traded for Outlaws and WN models. Looking forward to watching all of your WWX vids.
I hope there’s gonna be really a lot of content for this weekend.I ‘m very interested in this game.
wicked minitures
Looking forward to rest of the week
Yeah baby!!!
A whole week with WWX – can’t wait for the Kickstarter to begin…let’s reach that million mark!!!
Got the starter set recently and nearly finished painting them up just in time for WWE week. Sweet!
in it to winit
Give me stuff!
LLoyd is plenty funny!
As a Malifaux player, I’ve been on the fence with this game for awhile. Initially I had my doubts on the quality of the models, but the unboxings that I’ve watched have put those doubts to rest. Now I’m just wondering if it’s worth investing in another western weird punk game. Have to say the Lawmen (especially duel faction Virgil) and Watchers (wild west xcom =D) are really interesting me.
I imagine there’s a lot of people on the fence for this game, and a part of me (and here’s a clue, it ain’t my wallet) wants this week to push me kicking and screaming off that fence =p
looks interesting. hope to see you guys at salute
I knew it was a mistake watching this… I really can’t afford another kickstarter after Conan… but I’ve had my eye on this for a while…
Love this game, reminds me of Galaxy Rangers 😛
I’m loving the look of this game.
Awesome models…gotta love the outlaws…bad guys always look like they will be more fun to paint…Jim
I agree that “run and gun” does describe the Outlaws well. Glad to see this video, as they are one of my favorite factions in the game.
Great video guys! I’ve been playing the game for a while and it is a lot of fun. Coming from Malifaux the learning curve was pretty small and was able to pick it up in no time. Looking forward to the kickstarter
such a good prize
Nice video, it is a really great game. Our family has been playing it for over a year and it is really fun!
Like the look of this as I really enjoy Malifaux as well, and Outlaws would probably be my first choice!
I like the terrain setup
Great Video guys
I’ll have to check out this Kickstarter!
Great Game can’t wait for kickstater, hope they reach a Mil.
loving the look of this game, definitely be taking a good look at the kickstarter
Glad you guys are bringing so much info this week! I needed to see more before the kickstarter so I know how to spend my cash
Another Post, another Darkwave Cowboy Song 😉 : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6nvMvcoN5LU
If anyone knows other bands that do something similar please share… i’m gonna make a forum thread later if WWE has ha section… love this so brutally much!
(Lyrics) Fields of the Nephelim – Endemoniada :
So let it feel… Unreal
When I fall asleep at the wheel
Think about this… If looks could kill
Such a thrill… The way I feel
Now I’m falling asleep at the wheel
And I’m dreaming of the kill
We dream of familiar places here
We dream of familiar faces
Do you want a display
Just stand in my way
If you want a display
Your love in that way… Now get out
Think about this…
Well I’ve seen… With old eyes
And every time I turn around another dies
Think about this… If looks could kill
Vision’s Black, I go to war sometimes
When I’m walking on my own
We dream of familiar places
Vision’s black, I go to war sometimes
When I’m walking on my own
We dream of familiar places
And I’m dreaming
We dream of familiar things here (My heart beats, my heart beats)
We dream of familiar places
And I’m dreaming…
We dream of familiar things here (My heart beats, my heart beats)
We dream of familiar places Stop!
I love themed weeks and am looking forward to the rest of the week!
Once again I’ll have to succeed in a willpower test to resist getting in on the kickstarter. I don’t have enough time as it is to play all the games I already have.
Just got into the game have the warrior nation and the starter set.
Looking forward to all the WWX content this week. I may have to jump into this game with the kickstarted.
Looking at getting in on the upcoming kickstarter. Like the holy order from first releases but will grab them later i think.
omg i always loved the “wild west genre’ books movies toys costumes. when i was very very young i had the playmobile wild west set and my friend had the whole wild west town. also it reminds me of marshal bravestarr a tv show i watched a lot when i was young, i bet most of you can remember. ou oh my trigger finger gets itchy!
How many total models available in this faction?
If I counted correctly, there are 44 different models so far in the Outlaw faction (not counting any named character more than once). Each “Hired Hand” (basic trooper) is an individual pose, too.
WWX, can’t wait for the kickstarter. Hook me up with the store credit so I can get some WWX stuff before the kickstarter is finished!
Definitely a cool game that allows you to do all kinds of stuff with your guys.
The Jesse James Archives series really flesh out this faction as well as the others. I would recommend them to anyone. Also whats not to like about Jesse James, Frank James, And Cole Younger?
As a large bald guy with a goatee who is actually a chef, I will defiantly be using “Chef”
That model was actually a backer/fan driven model, I believe (and it looks awesome in person).
This is one of the factions i love to have! 😀 the outlaw cowboys 😀
love this game since the begining!
looks interesting
I never thought I’d be playing a Western miniatures game, but here I am. I started purchasing WWX shortly after Sean’s first appearance on BoW. It’s incredibly fun and dynamic. On a personal note…every time I work on the miniatures, read the books or play a game, I’m reminded of my father. He was always sitting in his favorite chair next to my grandfathers lamp with a rat-eared western in his hand. I had forgotten those memories until I started reading the novels and playing this game. Thank you very much for reminding of those wonderful days. My father would have been interested in this game although I think he would have had a few questions about the high tech aspect of it…lol.
So, when does the “Citizens of Northfield” faction come out?
Am I a winner or a wiener?
Faction I’m looking at the most is the Golden army (that’s their name right?) but until they come out outlaws would be my pick, they look really cool
The game looks great. Will have to watch it on kickstarter
Been really interesting in this game.
This is a game I haven’t played but has been on my interest radar, so I’m looking forward to these in-depth looks this week.
Fantastic factions already. This game gets better and better…
Really liked the look of the CCLE-K9’s (even though they aren’t purely Outlaw)
Jesse is soooo Broken always primary target 🙂
absolutely love the look of this game!! Backed on first Kickstarter go round, and waiting with baited breath for this next installment..
Really looking forward to seeing the other faction coverage
lawmen next?
Good looking game!
I want a faction based on the Maverick family and associated friends.
Sounds like a playstyle that might suit me. Definitely something to think about.
Jessie James was the reason I started playing the Outlaws. Awesome faction!
I’m so glad it’s WWX week…it’s given me the kick to put brush to my starter set at long last. I’ll have to make a list of the best movies to watch whilst painting all these outlaws and lawmen 🙂 Let’s aim to misbehave, shall we? 😛
Cool characters and interesting fluff!
loved the look of this on its first kickstarter, but sadly did not have the fist full of dollars needed to get in on it. Hopefully I will have a few dollars more for the next one.
Too many games already….but I love me some steampunk….
I can’t decide if this is the faction for me but this video has made me contemplate them.
Looking forward to checking this game out
I loved this game when it was just a concept at the original kickstarter….so i went all in an will be doing it all over come march 1 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂
Ooo. These guys or Warrior Nation seem like the factions for me!
I honestly thought there would have been more finger guns, but one bang at the end of the video works.
I know these were bad people IRL but the outlaw faction seems to have my kind of high mobility/high damage glass cannon play style.
This is yet another game that is tempting my already suffering wallet. The outlaws look really cool.
Awesome!! Outlaws look bad ass!
The legendary Jesse really looks badass
seems like a very cool game, the starter set looks good value for money as well.
So much win. Have to redo all my terrain to wild west though.
looking and sounding like some good stuff.
their vehicles look interesting. but if its so much shooting game dont ends too fast? or boss models are much more powerful than grunts?
Boss models are more powerful than Underbosses, who are more powerful than Sidekicks, who are more powerful than Hired Hands. There are plenty of tricks in game to make sure you don’t get overwhelmed by your opponents shooting.
will we see an Asian influence in the game
just like to see a samurai or ninja with some RJ-1027
Three words, “Jimmy The Kid.” Job done.
Awesome sauce!
Yet another game you tempt me with guys! 🙂
looking forward to seeing the rest
Great! but, what is it? steampunk wild west or cyberpunk wild west?
I aim to misbehave
not really feeling the outlaws, but the enlighten look amazing
“you could be a winner Baby” that’s no lie
This game looks pretty cool!
Outlaws look really good.
One of those games that I’ve been interested in, but don’t have anyone to play with.
I’ve been waffling between this and Infinity for a few months… I’m done with playing larger wargames like Warhammer and long for something smaller and a bit more squad based. =/
I love the look and feel of this game. I’m really curious to play it.
I keep hearing Jon Bon Jovi singing wanted dead or alive when I see the Outlaws.
Great, love the models and the backround.
the game looks cool
Nice intro to a faction. A lot of games need something like this to give players/buyers an informed choice before laying down their cold hard cash.
Great show, really like Sean’s laconic style.
They look great! So tempting!
I’m still waiting to be sold on a faction, but game looks great
Cool looking faction indeed!
WWX is looking better than ever
Brother G
I hope all the factions have the internal struggles built into their faction histories, makes games feel more authentic especially when you have the terrain to set up the scenario.
What would the wild west be without outlaws.
The characters in the outlaws made the character of the old west
If I could find other people locally, I’d pick this up in a heartbeat.
Cowboys with super guns, nowt better
outlaws look cool 8P.
Brilliant stuff… wishing I had had the funds to back the kickstarter. These mini’s are “on my list” lol
looks good ready to watch more
Can’t wait to get some an play
These guys look great…
almost every time i watch a beasts of war video, i always end up wanting to get into another table top game…..
I do love this faction
This game really reminds me of BraveStarr I watched as a kid.
The best faction though The union also interest me. Decisions, decisions
This is some cool stuff. I like how excited everyone is in the vids
Outlaw minis have the most personality in my opinion.
So happy for a WWX week…bring it on!!!
Nice to know that there are also factions within the factions. Hadn’t realized that yet. The Outlaws certainly sound like a cool gang.
I keep looking at Wild West Exodus and I just can’t make up my mind which faction to choose. I have to admit that the outlaws have some great looking characters.
