Wild West Exodus Faction Chats: The Union!
February 25, 2015 by warzan
Warren continues his look at the factions of Wild West Exodus with Sean from Outlaw Miniatures. This time they fight the Confederates and other threats while attempting to build a nation as the Union.
This technology focused faction strive to be the good guys but in the WWX universe it ain't gonna be black or white but grey. Their faction includes General Grant with a mask that hides a scarred face hellbent on revenge against Dr. Carpathian and a personal favourite of Justin's, the shotgun-axe hybrid wielding Abe Lincoln rejuvenated by RJ-1027.
We have more faction chats coming this week so stay tuned for more.
Which Union member gets you jumping for joy like Justin?

































I would really like to see William Rosecrans as a Union/Enlightened character.
or even Union/Golden Army given his Mexican connection
Yep I think the Union is the faction I am most interested in….mmm combat trains.
Definitely some interesting stuff here…
Hey, the favorite faction of chief (Justin) they look pretty good but i think they need more fire power
good stuff
Can’t wait to see the Warrior Nation
This looks amazing!!!
So many names from across wild west history make this a very difficult choice nailing down one faction for me.
Big Abe, Grant, Tesla and Custer make a very good case for the Union, but they are up against all the other big names from the other factions. I just don’t know ( yet ).
You know that brings up a interesting point is there going to be any historicals joining the holy order faction?
This videos are extremely valuable for new people getting into this game. Thanks lads!
oh my gosh Tesla looks amazing.
Love these videos!
Grant looks awesome! 🙂 Love the mask/helmet.
The Union is cool with Grant and Abe.
Im thinking about doing the union and the confederacy.
Love the Grant model
Abe is a beast!!!!
Yep really likeing the Union
Great to see and hear the Union’s story going out and people loving it! The Union does have dozens of great options already… some not mentioned are Pinkerton (a Boss Bodyguard), the Locust Light Support Vehicle, Heavy Weapon Line Troops with Rocket Pod… Sgt Hopkins and his sniper!… Sherman and his Arm Blaster that sets everything on fire! Burnin Sherman for realz!! Dont forget the Lawmen/Union Col. Carl Fredrickson and his Portal Glove… granting him the ability to teleport himself and targets into his own Halo…
I have one Union figure and some basing stuffs already, these are excellent miniatures.
Ooh. 2 factions in one day, you are spoiling us. But the more the merrier I say.
I can’t decide which faction to look at!!!
Are these background books going to be available on the Kickstarter?
Still cry after my Tesla being a Union character
I need Grant !
I really cant decide – lawmen or union ?
Gotta go lawmen, just so you can say “I’ll be your huckleberry!” When you play Doc Holiday.
definitely the faction for me
Have a feeling these could be my boys…..
Unless another vid convinces me otherwise! 🙂
Would have liked to hear more about the actual faction and not just the characters
Great vid again guys
hmmm too many choices.
i do love the Tesla construct.
Now I don’t know which faction I want next! Thanx guys…
great faction looks amazing
Tesla was always my hero, so if I go into this, Union will likely be my guys (and gals) with Tesla leading the charge (Puns!)
Though I want to see the kickstarter factions before I dive in, those aliens look tasty 🙂
still not decided on a faction
Hmmm. Union is the faction that does the least for me, let’s see if you guys can change my mind. 🙂
Now that is my faction of choice.
Ok, Union seems interesting.
It’s getting really difficult to choose between these factions… Grant is pretty cool, but I think I’I’m veering towards Outlaws for now…
I need to get me Abe Lincoln
want all the things
Grant looks quality
The union definitely looks interesting
My wife plays Union and she loves it. nuff said
I finally got all my Union painted up. the game is pretty fun and nothing beats legendary abe!
This is the faction for me, really like Abe Lincoln.
I like all them dam….. I want them all
Is it just me or does the Union seem kind of unlikable.
They are the US government. It’s easy to see why they’re unlikable! They’re great fun to play though!
My Eldest daughter is very much into Tesla at the moment, Could be the faction for her I’m thinking
General Grant all the way!
Abe Lincoln. One day he will swing his shotgun-axe and it will shoot him in the face. 😉
Abe Lincoln. Shotgun Axe. Need I say more?
Tesla himself? In a mech? This is awesome!
I’m the same can’t decide lawman or union!
Cool train and tanks
anyone know if there is a new rulebook with the upcoming KS, or if its still same as the current one?
Im getting more and more into this game, hmmm… another one to collect, damn!
This could very well be my faction
I’m with Justin, very cool faction.
So far, the Union is my second favorite after the Outlaws. The Union have great characters and again, like all the minis i’ve seen so far, they are awesome!
So many good looking factions and minis to match. want them all 🙂
Well I won’t be taking the Union – but only because the Wayward eight won’t work with them.
Tesla! This is my jam!
I really like the evil twist of the Union and how they are used by the Dark Council. Again, great work.
Tesla, in a mech, ready to stomp on Edison. 🙂
Why does this game tempt me so?
Was not really that interested in the union before looking at this, now really interested, more cash gone!
General Grant looks really cool
I think this might be the one. Love all the sculpts, hence, such a hard choice. Lawmen would have to be second.
The Union definitely have some nice shooting synergies.
Love the Abe
I still preferring the laymen
hard choice
Hardcore
Loving the WWX coverage. Definitely gonna be investing in the game/KS. Hope your future themed weeks can keep up the same quality – you’re setting the bar pretty high here!
Great week of info. May just have to get the hardcover rules, we’ll see come kickstarter time.
Abe is my favorite.
Time to take the dust off my hat and ride
TESLA! TESLA! TESLA!
Well, so far these guys just edge out the lawmen for me. That said I’m really going to have to wait for the Kickstarter to see the confederates, can’t wait to see what they do with people like Robert E Lee and Stonewall Jackson.
I’m really enjoying these videos. I like the Union.
Looking forward to warrior nation
once again, interesting stuff
Grant looks super cool, but Tesla has to be the next kit i get. He looks awesome
I really like the fluff about Lincoln in the rulebook and the novels. I feel like you want to like Lincoln but don’t have a whole lot of sympathy of Grant. Grant has become a monster while seeking the vengeance for the death of his family.
Hhmmmmm almost swayed by ‘Abe’ but it’s still lawmen for me…
Union is definitely for me. this faction looks fun. and you can’t go wrong with Abe
Union looks really cool, though I do wish they talked a bit more about the background
The rulebook has plenty. 200+ pages of fluff
these all look amazing cant decide what faction i want.
Good stuff
Are there plans for an Ambrose Bierce character with his connections to the Union and the Golden Army?
I like the union minis, but I think the lawmen are better.
Union Gun line. Nuff said
The villains of the game!
These videos are really great, but all they’re doing is making it harder for me to choose a faction!
The decision of factions on this game gets harder every day!
Very cool. But was that the first female character we’ve seen out of 4 factions?
The Union is still my second favorite faction. The Outlaws are very cool!
I have been interested in this game for some time now. I am just not sure which faction I want to start.
Still think a gamblers group would be cool. Looks like a fun game.
I’d personally always field Tesla because my god a lightning walker is something you can’t pass up.
If Grant is a heavy drinker in this game…better stay clear of em…Jim.
My faction of choice. The idea of Spec Ops Lincoln was hard to pass up!!!
I’m trying to decide the same thing lol
Very cool
Looks like a good shootty army.
Love the look of these
Interesting fact about Abe Lincoln, he had wooden false teeth with a sprung palette to keep them in place. That’s why he has such a macho jaw line, he’s lower jaw was constantly working against the spring to keep his mouth shut!
The Grant, and Tesla models are stunning! The others shown are very nice as well!
Really love the figs! Deciding between Union and Outlaw 😀
I love Lincolns shotgun axe
Can’t wait for the kickstarter
Abe model with a shotgun-axe is awesome!
Just started the first book, am liking the look of the Outlaws.
I think this is the faction for me!
Nikola Tesla is my boy
Tesla is going to be my second Union boss. Grant’s gunline is fun but needs more electric stompy death!
Grant is no slouch in melee
Tesla looks great can you use him in different factions?
No. Only the Union at the moment.
I think these guys might be my type of faction
it looks like a lot of fun
Very interesting fluff and characters
The best faction! does have ABE LINCOLN! the best warrior president!
shotgun axe abe lincoln….yeah ok, I’m in.
Very tempting!
I like the background story for the Union. Especially Grant and Abe. A really nice twist when it comes to real characters. A shooting faction is what I hate to play against.
Union look cool, but I’m more excited for the Confederates.
These models look crazy good !! Stupid fantastic models
Interesting characters, and they look cool. But my favourite part of this faction are the vehicles, so AWESOME!
Shotgun ax, yes please!
I don’t really care about the Union. Just get me a train!
