WWX Demo Game Union VS Enlightened Part Two
February 24, 2015 by dignity
Justin and Sean continue their epic battle in Wild West Exodus where the Union are taking on the Enlightened. Justin has made his opening gambit but Sean is striking back hard!
Will Abe be getting into a little bit of hot water that he can't escape from?
Watch The Battle From The Start!
Who is your money on?
































finally, been waiting for a Wild West Exodus week!! can finally crack out my kickstarter stuff and relearn to play!!
Nice way to spend an evening after work. Cheers boys for the new vid.
I’ve been on the fence about WWE, but I think this has swayed me.
Good, the part two, see how it goes the battle.
The only thing that has held me back is picking a faction. I like them all!
Great Gatling guns man! is there no end to the action? LOL Love it
Who would win? chan chan chan…
Love the perks characters give each other. Get some real tactics set up.
Looks great
I am loving the union troops.
Gotta play this, looks fun!
Great game, well played guys would love to start playing this game, I wasn’t sure about it but now I am in love.
enjoying watchng this can’t wait to the for the end to see who wins a nice way to learn the game
I know how I going to spend my evening. 🙂 To bad these videos are not suitable for work.
The build up to the kickstarter convinced me to take the plunge.
The iron horses look really awesome, and the paint jobs are sweet as well.
This mdf houses are from 4 grounds?
The buildings are made for WWX by Micro Arts Studios.
Awesome terrain
Think i will have to give this a chance. I generally am not to keen on the vehicle design, but after seeing some of the infantry sculpts in person( otlaws) I have to say the look great! I will replace malifaux for me as i was not to keen on the 2 edition.
why wasnt justin dressed up as the milkybar kid for this video …..that is a trick missed
Thought they were going to rename the vehicle John Wilkes Booth.
Just the small skirmish miniature game a couple of my friends have been looking for. Trying to get them wargaming for ages and this might just do it
Very nice miniatures! Probably “For a few dollars more” is a common saying between the KS backers!
Nice work everyone!
Another KS I’m not gonna be able to resist!
Its starting to hot up now, Will Lincoln live???
This really does look like an awesome game. I’ll have to help paint this stuff up.
Looks like the next turn’s initiative will be very important. Could we see history change and have Abraham Lincoln instead be killed by an exploding robot-zombie? Loving the shenanigans with Edison. Can’t wait for the rest!
The center is all free and Justin (chief) don’t forget the center you will loose the vp and loose
I like the way this game has evolved so far. Well we shall see tomorrow if Abe will live.
Union seems a fun faction.
rockin!
Things are going hellish! I like Justin’s tactics, but I’m scared for Lincoln. Will he pass through the third turn?
im rapidly running out of money and space !
Wow, those rockets on the iron horse, and Abe are pure destruction. That Master of Sound ability is amazing too.
I think I really like this game…
Good game sean my bet is on you
Time to attack with everything.. =) This looks really good.
When it doubt use moire gun.
Well, now we know why Justin was so adamant about taking down the doomsday, if that had hit at regular firepower, ouch
Did you say “hey blinkin”?
Am convinced I’m going to get into this game now. Think Justin will lose the battle for the centre objectives.
So have to get in to this
I’m loving this game.
really nice table guys
one thing i’m wondering about is will there be the possibility to fight in buildings? like a good old saloon shoot out? I’m just thinking about the great 4ground buildings….hmmmm
You can enter the buildings and fight in. You can also burn or destroy them (a good option when enemy models are shooting at you from the second floor of the saloon).
I’m enjoying this but for some reason the word ‘Quickness’ hurts my ears… what’s wrong with the word ‘Speed’?
Got to say, I love the idea of MechAbe Lincoln hacking up a giant train car of DOOM!
got a little confused with some of the influence uses, so it looks like back to the rulebook i must go
Really enjoying the playthrough. I’m guessing this game is reliant on terrain like other miniatures games? Does anyone have experience playing this game without terrain like this?
This game plays best with a fair amount of terrain. Otherwise things will die rather quickly, and certain factions rely on cover more than others (Warrior Nation and Holy Order as an example).
After hearing you guys talk about activation tokens for games and now seeing a game being played using activation. It seems so much better than my turn your turn and seems to add greater tactical depth to a game.
the game looks pretty fun and easy to pickup. I would definitely be the outlaws though.
Great play through looking forward to the next part
First part was great, really looking forward to seeing how it pans out.
Not sure about the choice to charge the Doomsday with Abe…
good stuff
Really like the Edison Master of Sound attack. Being displaced like that can be really costly! I don’t like Abes chances tbh. 😛
Have to say I am really enjoying these video battle reports
Justin, I like your style running Abe out front. I lose Wyatt about every game because I do the same.
Can’t wait for the kickstarter
Is it Thursday yet? Looking forward for the next part…
Does Influence affect the entire table? Or is it limited in range from its source? Does it go away when the contributing fig takes a dirt nap? Does it renew each turn? Since it seems an important factor in the game play, you need to be a little more specific with its use/properties.
Otherwise, great video.
At the beginning of each turn, you build an Influence pool by adding the influence value of each of your models still alive.
You can spend Influence anywhere on the table, on any dice roll even on the initiative roll.
For the next turn, Justin have to win the initiative roll to play first and try to keep Abe alive. He should spend 1 or 2 Influence on this crucial roll.
part two, let’s see !
Loving the play through. Grabbing a cup of coffee and getting ready to enjoy pt 2. Go Union!!
One thing I really liked about the first video, which I know has been mentioned before is the letting you know what each players beginning strategy is. It is fun to see the strategy evolve and change as the game situation changes. Love the table and the models. I have purchased a few and I love their plastic models. I have had nothing but problems with their resin models. They are very brittle and even the slightest amount of pressure will cause the delicate parts to snap. Wish they would all be plastic, based on their great plastic models.
Justin is so into this, it’s great to watch
Another good video.
May be looking to buy
UNION shall win!
Can’t wait to see how this turns out
Whenever there’s a Beast of Wars week my wallet cries.
Not sure this will be any different.
loving this game
Awesome stuff! if Abe dies after the next activation then definitely an enlightened win
I like the synergy, but the game does seem to bog down with all of the special abilities. I would hesitate to try a bigger battle then they are doing now.
absolutely loving this game its so unbelievably awesome. Building my outlaws as i watch this
looks so good.. hope I win.
Now i really need to paint my first kick minis 🙂
Beautiful game…Love it.
Loving this game coverage. Looks so cool. Can’t pick a faction
This should be fun!
Again a great video of a great game, as far I can see now
Nice one guys
This reminds me of Spartan Games Dystopian Wars played in American West but way cooler –
This still looks good. Sadly no one in my gaming Group wants to play
Might have swayed me on this one. Looks awesome!
It will be very difficult to resist getting in on this KS. I wish I had known about KS when the first campaign was running! Great looking stuff.
This game gets more and more exciting
great vid, really liking the look of this
Great demo game.
Good work
Can’t wait for ks
Gameplay and mechanics are looking good, great game so far
great game
I knew Big Abe would be hard, but he rules! All I can say is “i’ll keep the minis and you can have the rope.”
wow, cannot wait for the rest
I’ll be honest… I’m just commenting to win a price.
Nice game guys! Love watching you play, it makes me want the game!
Hmm this game looks more and more interesting 😉
A nice demo game, already learnt a couple of things that we had been doing wrong. Just in time too as I have a game on Friday Night.
Really like the game play, great activation and damage mechanics
Great Job guys! looking forward to part 3
Awsome, really glad this has finally arrived, been waiting for this to convince my buddies to jump in
take my fist full of dollars!!!. sod it take a few dollars more
More commenting cos’ I REALLY want to win some of this stuff! Lolz
I’d love to see Confederate vs Union when the new factions are released
I don’t know if anyone else appreciated that Justin wanted to put the top back on the building to keep the game looking pretty, but that’s how I like to play. Keep it neat and tidy so the visual is maintained.
More goodness, thanks.
Really think there should be a plate of biscuits beside the table, and every-time Justin says ‘Risk it for a Biscuit’ then take one. Mmm biscuits…*drool* You guys are doing a great job, and the video quality is spot on. Love these games. Justin would be such a great guy to play against .. go Lincoln!!
Interesting round, I kinda thought that, with the amount of lead flying from the war machine, there should be some sort of panic mechanic for the targets.
Sometimes you have to take a Courage test. When a model is hit by weapons with the Fire or Blast special rule and weapons with at least power 14.
Saw this for the first time at the LVO, great looking little game, I must have Tesla!
Woop! Lookin’ good!
Yep still think Sean has got this! Sorry Justin!
Lincoln is a beast.
It’s so nice to see some WWX coverage. I hope we see some talk about the new factions for the Kickstarter.
Can’t wait for part 3!
I’m going to saddle up and buy some WWX minis asap!
i need to start working on my lawmen and outlaw factions
cheers guys, is it really so long game?
What a battle!
I want this bad!!!
I like free stuff almost as much as i like Wild West Exodus
Definitely getting in some demos of WWX at Adepticon…
I’m really enjoying this bat rep.
Excellent Demo guys! I’ll be watching this next Kickstarter closely.
Nice job with the demo guys. Really enjoying the player commentary between turns. Looking forward to part 3. Keep up the good work.
Wow, the bullets were really flying that round. Not sure Abe should have charged the Doomsday, but he did put a hurting on it.
I hope we get more wwx battle reports
Good 2nd round!…Jim
Leave it to Abe to decapitate a tank.
I quite like these little end of turn analysis by both players.
I am really worried about Honest Abe. I think that Justin is going to get him killed.
Awesome WWX week, next week KS
these all look so cool… can’t decide what I want to do!
Love the different factions
What will become of the greatest President the United States has ever known? Find out in episode 3!
Pity Justin has the Iron Horse identified back the front, but Sean has executed a cunning plan well.
UNION!
The more I watch…. the more I want!
Excellent battle reports. Really like the in between turn thoughts from the two players.
Yep, I can see me playing this game.
Lots of interesting stuff happening here.
Very cool.
Game still feels overly clunky but just to the looks of things it looks playable
iron horses looking very nice
A little bummed I missed the KS for this…
Yeah I’ve decided I’m not interested in this.
The tactics and strategy interstitials are a nice addition to these battle reports. They really help to build the tension, seeing if a plan works out as intended.
Really like skirmish level games, focusing on individual models doing things with lots of special skills. Also the steampunk western universe looks pretty good; would like to paint some miniatures. Looking forward to seeing what the confederate and golden and factions look like.
Backing the Conan kickstarter has left me destitute… but I’m going to have to find a way to back this too…
Doc C is nasty with that big rifle of his, but Abe can chop him up nicely 😉
Really enjoying these
come on Justin
Lincoln is a BEAST, but I think Justin left him out in the wind a little too long….we shall see!
someone mentioned before but I cant see any rules that would define this game, in case of most games you can tell like malfaux – soulstones and cheat, wolfsung Cards, casters in warmahordes, infinity orders and reaction and so on, There is nothing in this game that would make it unique. In my opinion. love the models an really want to read books but I’m still waiting for some epic action in game.
Excellent synergies between the characters. Enjoying it so far.
…..Is “Risk it for a biscuit” Justin’s new catch phrase?
