MERCS_logoIn this Box Breaking Matt breaks Kemvar out of the MERCS Kemvar starter.   Briefly reviewing the detail displayed on the models.

 

 

The Kemvar faction is one of the more appealing factions in the MERCS game.  Dynamic figures and stealth armor I can’t wait to get them on bases.

MERCS_logoIn this Box Breaking Matt busts open the CCC faction starter.  The MERCS miniatures are among some of the best in the gaming industry.   Matt has never seen these models unassembled and unpainted before.  Watch as he busts them open.

 

 

 

Those are some pretty dynamic miniatures.   Later tonight Matt puts them together; we will have the figure forge up shortly.

Watch as Matt delves into Dungeon from Wizards of the Coast.

 

Dungeon is not what I was expecting.  I was expecting a game that leaned more towards an RPG feel.  But  after I got over my expectations and played the game for what it is; a board game.  I thoroughly enjoy Dungeon.  The game is simple enough that an eight year old can grasp the concepts While an adult can seek more tactical challenges.

The concept of the game is to gather treasure.  Each player assumes the role of a character; Rogue, Cleric, Fighter, or Wizard.  Each Class has a set amount of treasure they need to gather and then get out of the dungeon.  Combat is pretty simple you roll two dice and compare the roll to the number you need to beat on the monsters card.  The greater the challenge the greater the reward.   The rules suggest appropriate threat levels for  the classes.  To be blunt Rogues are wimps so they fight low level monsters.

All in all the game turned out to be pretty good even though I expected something else.  You can play Dungeon with 4 player  a couple of times in an evening fairly easily.
