The materials are what’s garbage. When they go with resin or metal it’s fine, but even the plastic stuff is bad. I’m a stickler for mold line removal and this material makes it very difficult to do that. <br /><br />I don’t really mind their packaging because how are you going to hurt that crap?!

As a company though their packing has had me frustrated and wound up (kickstarter missing chunks of models and the rulebook missing out of a dreadball box set)<br /><br />The problem is the bits that are budget are the same bits that pain.. bases need the work (rather than benefit by it) and none of the models make you want to paint them.<br /><br />I would say that so far their rules seem fairly solid and fun to play for the bits I have seen and although I don't want another battle force the skirmish and board game styles seem to work well.Douglas MacIntyrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02997696696539577565noreply@blogger.com
