In this video John demonstrates the Game Mechanics used in Freeblades. He specifically touches on casting a spell, ranged combat, and close combat.  Freeblades is a fantasy based skirmish game that uses a variety of dice in its system.  The models use dice based on their “caste”.  For example a minion/henchman uses a d4 while heroes use a d12.  I am pretty much sold on the system.

 

The Freeblades miniature line is not one that is intimidating either.  It has a lot of appeal to the experienced and the inexperienced painter.

John is the Creative Director for  Soda Pop Miniatures.  It is safe to say that he is an Expert on Relic Knights.  Relic Knights is an alternate activation game that is a diceless system, and it could very well have the best looking figs on the Market.

 

 

 

I had the chance to watch Relic Knights at Gen Con last year, I was skeptical.  After listening to John explain things the demonstration made a lot more sense and I wan t to play.

By the way the rules are now available from dgsgames.com

I look forward to seeing many good things from this company.   We have one more video coming from the DGS crew, it is about Freeblades game play

In this Interview Jason talks about his field guide projects, why he likes the Heavy Gear Setting, and what we can expect with the rules in the future. He mentions that the South will be getting some new toys and speaks briefly about the convicts and the Phoenixes. Filmed at Origins Game Fair as part of Heavy Gear Week.

Remember to like Dream Pod 9 on Facebook here for a chance to win a two player starter.

I wanted to put some cool images up in the background of this video for all of you to enjoy.  The lighting just wasn’t as good as it needs to be for that.  I am still going to go ahead and do it at a slightly later date; I fidgeted with the images for 10 hours yesterday and I was just not happy.

 

I wanted to thank every one for watching our videos and reading our articles during Heavy Gear week .  We are not done yet we still have material  for you to go up this week.  Something about not having power in the game hall made that difficult.
