What’s in the Box: Firefly, Prime Axiom & Anarchy Basing Bits!
September 4, 2013 by dignity
Ok guys, time for a bumper bonanza of cool stuff! First up, Justin has been joined by Mike to have a look at the Prime Axiom for the Convergence of Cyriss. This is one big, awesome looking colossal for your games of Warmachine.
Then Nick pops in for a look at one of the most highly anticipated games of the year. That's right, the guys have gotten their hands on a copy of Firefly the Board Game and couldn't wait to give you all a quick look at what your getting in the box, before running off with it for a few games to learn how to play. Keep an eye out for an epic demo game later in the month.
Lastly Justin has brought Brian from Anarchy Models to have a look at some of the Basing Bits he has to really make your models pop on the battle field.

Do Anarchy have a US distributor? Those crystals look great but shipping from the UK can be bad for small purchases. I want to use some to dress up my terrain for Relic Knights.
Cool stuff and I agree that model needs a real flying base unless he’s just resting on that rock! And as for the Firefly game…. they’re going to sell a lot of these even if the game turns out not to be great… people want their Serenity NOW!
The Firefly game is shiny, and those Anarchy basing bits are very pretty.
Want! Want! Want! Wallet empty! What?
Great Vid, guys! It would also be awesome to see “Instant Mold” on boxed!!
I would like that colossal.
That was a great episode! And I cant wait to watch you guys play Firefly! I preordered the game! Shiny!
Those basing crystals are awesome.
Can’t wait for the Firefly demo, I want to see how it plays.
…Very impresive and scary colossal……and i have to say that firefly the game looks more appealing every time i look at it….
That keeps looking better the more I see it.
Just a quick question when are winners announced or is it done privately by email and not shown to public ??
We announce the winners for out comps on the Weekender each week, so last weeks would be this week and this weeks would be next, get it? 🙂
BoW Justin
Got it thanks man.
Prime Axiom is a fantastic model. Looks and rules wise.
I was a demonstrator for the Firefly Game at Gen Con…. The game IS awesome…. After conducting fourteen two-hour demos…. I really got to know the game.
The money included in the game is very high quality and stands out as the best of a very well made game…
Those planning to puchase the game should purchase a toy dinosaur as well, especially if they plan to give it as a gift…..
I would like that colossal too time to shop for paint … a lot of paint
id so light up the axim with the crystals .
I’m looking forward to painting the Fireflies
that axiom looks badass
I’m glad to see the rock the Prime Axiom is sitting on is a separate piece, that will make it much easier to replace.
Colossals, I’d say more but I’m trying to stop drooling.
I just want to magnetise that colossal so much.
Massive metal robots. You can’t go wrong! It’s looks brilliant.
Shiny
It’s odd — I have a clear favourite Gargantuan (Mountain King), but really cannot decide which Colossal I’d most like to grab. Conquest, Stormwall, Galleon, and Prime Axiom all look like they’d be a lot of fun to paint.
Blue Crystals?
Wow. That Firefly game looks superb. It even makes me want to investigate the TV series.
I had discovered the opportunity to demo for Gale Force 9,,,, and had to watch some episodes on Netflix….. The series is really good…. there’s not to many episodes to commit to (unfortunately)….
I don’t Netflix but have ordered a DVD.
You can get to see it online if you can’t wait for the DVD
Worth getting though so you don’t have to put up with the ads and blasted pop ups!! lol
I really like the Prime Axiom, should fly though!!
must get all the items in this episode!
I gotta say, I love that prime axiom, though I can’t help but feel that it’s slightly too cyber for warmachine. Would work great as an infinity scenario piece!
Nice job as always guys keep up the good work
do, do, dee, dum, do…Arggh. I can’t wait anymore I what the Firefly game now, or a Janye hat, or the Demo game, or more episode. Hmmm…I may be asking to much.
nice show. Axiom is so cooool
Some nice stuff there
Please let me win, it would make the journeyman I’m currently in a lot easier when it comes to 35 points 😛
Lovely looking shinnies as always
Only recently started to watch Firefly, it’s SO AWESOME, NEED GAME. NEEEEED.
very pretty stuff as always. Looking forward to seeing the demo game for Firefly.
the colossal look awesome, but i definitely modify the “rocky” stand a nice brass rod painted in black will be much better
I’d like a big figure and Firefly and lots of other KS stuff, but funds are a tad tight 🙁
I heard whispers of SoA. It should be more backstabbing compared to Spartacus.
Comment for nom nom? I’ll be as tarty as Morena in a companion ship for a free axiom.
Great unboxings, and also sweet prize, I´m thinking you could even change those stones the Pime axiom use to stick it to the base and replace it with a big cristal…
As for new unboxings, would love to see some of the new Avatar’s of War boxes, new Dwarves and Corrupters look awesome.
Hmmm. . . now I want all three.
I love the look of that Prime Axiom!
I’m really liking Firefly, more how I would paint them than rules and whatnot if I’m honest, but it looks like a very nice product all around, extra marks go for the single player scenario to help you learn the game, I like that a lot.
Also those basing things, for the right army they are great, love the idea of lighting the columns, green crystals with purple LEDs would give an interesting effect I think.
Firefly looks really cool but I suppose I’d be happy with a great new model and some funky Crystals. They could be really interesting to use for terrain or objective markers.
I here the firefly boardgame is awesome and the axion look really nice except for the base
I personally do think, that those crystals look quite the part… really perfect for the “comical” style of malifaux and in green pretty usefull for necs, too. The firefly game i’m not especially interessted in, but i did not watch any of those episodes and there is to much to watch right now.
Wow man The prime Axiom is incredible looking, one huge model too! I like those Anarchy bases too, they would be great for Necrons.
Colossals….gotta catch them all!
If you need someone to take that Axiom and pretty it up with some lights… =)
Warren on stimulants, oh dear 😛
Nice mecha.
I like the model and general style of Convergence. What I don’t like is the rock under the Prime Axiom. I hope I can model it without it.
The axiom is great looking, I much prefer it to the heavy jacks they have.
The Prime Axiom is amazing and it looks like Gale Force 9 did a great job on the Firefly game. Can’t wait for the Firefly demo!!!
I’m looking forward to that Firefly demo game. I don’t buy a lot of boardgames myself (Usually play with friends). But this is one I might get.
please choose me!
Would love a prime axiom!
Must have Colossal COC!
A ‘Sons Of Anarchy’ board game!? Let me deal with the awesomeness of the FireFly game first.
Anarchy models basing bits seems awsome. Not playing Convergence, but if I win a Prime Axiom, will start playing them 🙂
I think Warren has been on the Blue crystals….way too excited….even thou it’s Firefly and big big beastie.
Looking at the rules for the Prime Axiom, it probably wouldn’t matter too much who you took it with, would still kick ass
Awesome unboxing once again guys keep up the great work.
Great looking colossal. Too bad it has the boulder-poops.
Nicely done. Firefly looks good, but I heard it takes forever to play and gets boring. That behemoth looks amazing!
It is slow when learning the game…… but once played plays a bit more quickly
Players can get bored if they’re not attempting to attain the objectives…..which consequently pro;ongs the game…
I got the toy dinosaur. Now the game:)
Not surprisingly, I have a need for a Prime Axiom and some blue crystals.
Just can’t beat Firefly, remember picking up the box set and watching it all in about a week.
Love love love the Axiom! And I pre-ordered the Firefly game, for what seems like years ago, can’t wait for it!
I can’t wait to get the Firefly board game. I have the promo that GTM was giving away for it.
Firefly looks quite good, will have to try it out at my flgs.
Yes, the crystals look really cool.
The crystals would look great for a thematic Infinity mission.
Prime Axiom is a nice model. I agree with Justin though, the rocks have to go!
those crystals are pretty sweet, I like the look of them and I think they would go well with some of the terrain from gale force 9. you could do a whole crystal planet setup,
I can’t wait to see the Firefly demo game, guys.
Anything Firefly gets my interest
Now, don’t those crystals put gale force 9’s crystal efforts to shame! no bubbles AND clear!
Not long now ’til I get to play the Firefly game. The prime axiom is pretty but I wish it wasn’t grounded on that stupid rock.
Axiom is cool but Firefly game is a whole lot of shiney
I would LOVE to win that big hunk of beautiful machine! Minus the large rock underneath… Otherwise its great! Firefly looks fun, and another great show guys!
Yeah I wish the axiom had a better base 🙁
Those crystals…amazing! I had no idea anything like that was on the market.
I love unboxings, I watched all of the Khador ones when I first started out and when they were inked they were cool (to be honest I was a proper n00b and thought you could probably get away with an army like that :S). The prime axiom is a great model, I think that, some jacks and and the angels would make a striking arc deco army
Nice unboxing firefly looks great. Would love to see an I boxing for some of the batman miniatures.
well, Im looking forward wreack a prime with my mammoth 🙂 hope our cyris player gets one soon
Check this new thing from anarchy, first crystals, now this!… http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/805848592/anarchy-models-hd-stencil-system-for-camo-and-deta awsome!
Too much shiny, need sunglasses
Great show guys that Prine Axiom looks amazing – agree on the flying base. Can I have it for an Xmas gift for my mate who’s starting Convergence?
Could use those crystals as the stand for the Axiom, kinda like sand speeder “hover field”.
Firefly looks good but for my sins never seen the show lol
Here’s a little blurb I wrote about the Firefly Game on a local blog I Mod for…..
I demo’ed the game in fourteen two-hour sessions…. The components to the game are very solid….. that’s the first thing that will catch a gamer’s eye… the money being the sweetheart of it all…. some countries would be jealous of such currency…
For players familiar with the game, it will take about two hours… I suspect new player will take three or four… The set-up is somewhat complicated, but allows for streamlined play…
There are methods for selecting captains, ships, and starting locations….. Morality is a consideration, as players are encouraged to “Aim to Misbehave”; in this game there is a clear difference between immoral and illegal, though some actions in the game require both immoral and illegal action .
Players of the demos thwarted the semi-random consequences of the Reaver and Alliance ships, by sending it out of contentious areas and therefore, out of play . We did have one group that did the opposite, the Reavers killed thirty-six passengers and crew in one game .
You Fly, Buy, Work or Deal as your actions in the game; you get to perform two actions in your turn, though you cannot do the same action twice….
You travel through the Verse to hire crews and acquire equipment, deal with Patrons to get jobs. travel to perform these jobs… the legal ones are generally easy, but do not pay well… Illegal jobs are risky, and difficult and frequently immoral…. but pay well, often very well…. Do not forget, your crew get their cut of the action, or they’ll get disgruntled; if they are moral, forced to do immoral acts, they get disgruntled…. disgruntle them twice, they walk away….. It is possible for the Captain to get disgruntled, if he gets disgruntled twice, he fires the crew!!!!
It is advised to acquire a plastic toy dinosaur for game play as it is a crucial element to the game…. a cardboard substitute is included, though the designers reccomend the replacement….
I am really curious, how firefly plays, it looks like it could be nice and deep. i wouldn`t be too sad, if I find it in our gaming club in the next few weeks 😀
you have to choose the fireflay game =P
loving the crystals may actually grab some for with my khador…but which colours? and that prime axiom looks better every time i see it but agree the little rock seems out of place.
like the shiny Prime axion, and also Firefly looks good (can recommend the TV series and the film, Serenity)
Have seen a review of Firefly on The Dicetower and the game looks awesome
Looking forward to the BoW playthrough
I want the firefly comeback… with a collosal:)
the boardgames really fells the part!!!
great job!
Oh yes! Firefly and some CoC prime axiom goodness….heres hoping mates
I’m going to buy Firefly today, thanks for the unboxing it looks great.
Firefly looks pretty cool and the Axiom is pretty nice.
Where is my wallet!?
