New Star Wars Miniatures Game! Shatterpoint; Is The Force With These Big New Minis? #OTTWeekender
November 11, 2022 by brennon
It's OTT Weekender time! A new Star Wars miniatures game has been revealed! Star Wars: Shatterpoint is coming from the folks at Atomic Mass Games in 2023 and features small-scale squad-based games between (for now) characters from the Clone Wars like Anakin, Assaj, Obi-Wan, Ahsoka, Dooku, Maul and more.
The miniatures were previewed in a new trailer this week showcasing the range of characters on offer, their followers (Droids, Clone Troopers and Padawan) alongside some terrain. We discuss what we think of Shatterpoint and if The Force is with Atomic Mass Games and their new game with those big new minis!

I think you mean AT-ST not AT-AT.
That’s the one! 😛
Nice to see Battlescale get a mention
AMG got me by loading up on Mando’s from the off. Republic Commandos just sweeten the deal…
The weekend starts now!
Paint some more miniatures while watching the weekender.
Now painting 9 mortar teams to shell my brothers squats. 🙂
The Star Wars game looks interesting to me. They have not quite got me into legion, but this looks pretty interesting to me.
I’m very here for the Dunkeldorf minis.
Weekender time, quiet now, I’m watching
Its WWWWwwweekender time
Ooh the battle scale terrain looks brilliant.
Good evening all. Last again. I know my place. Dunkeldorf is a must. Fantastic miniatures and if the current KS goes as well as the last ones then any backers will be so pleased and satisfied with their investment and with following a KS with great comms and generous stretch goals and add-ons. A definite for any Warhammer Fantasy Roleplayers or those longing for the Oldhammer nostalgic vibe. 👍
Great show. Badger King Ben bosses it in this fun tutorial ably supported by his three amigos. Professor Gerry has mentored his padowan well me thinks…
Undaunted week is looking interesting. Know nothing of it, but I’m really liking these week long videos etc. Always very interesting.
Shatterpoint terrain is not scratch-built as they said in the announcement (you should go and watch on AMGs youtube channel) that the terrain is in the core set box.
lovin the new Guard figures/weapons.
The cover is just Maul, the Mandalorian Super Commandos and Gar Saxon and the other side are Ashoka, The Night Owls/Loyalists and Bo-Katan Kryse. The centre of the box is Anakin and Asajj Ventress.
ultimate Mothman ?
Yay release the donkeys.?
fab show Guy’s.
It bugs me to no end that every stat wars game in the last 15 years uses a different scale. I know they do it to guarantee sales but it still annoys me.
I bought everything for Imperial Assault… so it is frustrating.
Only reason I picked up Legion Core Set was it was a great deal at the amazon on a black friday at £46.39 and I was prepping a Star Wars RPG campaign.
I will buy Shatterpoint if there are enough minis in the starter and it looks a good game… but if the expansions are priced like Marvel Crisis that will be my limit.
I would hope that expansions would be in the form of teams… a leader and some troops to support.
Exactly that. I have plenty of other games in the queue, so I’ll just buy some baby yoda action figures, thanks. 😀
Undaunted is an amazing game!
Gorgeous weeekender as always! But I have to say I disagree with Justin’s statement about Shatterpoint feeling more Star wars… In the movies and other Star Wars media the story does revolve around a handful of heroes fighting for freedom, but the trope of the rebel army against the imperial power is very powerful and intrinsic. The fighting is most of the times conducting and surrounding the heroes and villains, when not is simply the center of the action. The huge vehicles, the massively large spaceships, the gargantuan weapons of destruction capable of wiping out a planet with a single… Read more »
Happy Cadia week everyone!
Shatterpoint looks interesting, but will it be sufficiently different to MCP? I also have the ongoing fear that the license will get taken away. It’s happened before and will happen again. It’s not such an issue in board games as they’re self contained, but a living game like a wargame? Thats a huge problem.
Wondering how many players with an existing collection of the 32mm figures will be just buying the starter set for the rules (and then selling the larger figures on eBay)?
*ping*
Ok, I had to do a longer write up on my thoughts on SW:P and dumped it in the forums.

Now I will watch the Weekender to see what “The Crew” thinks.
Shatter Point looks soooo good. I am deep in Marve Crisis Protocol at the mo so I hope its similar.
