    Reminded me of the 4 basic classes for Brutality, by Scott Wainwright. You have the Melee (hard hitting, durable, good defender), Fast (mobile, more attacks, goood for taking points), Ranged (2 ranged attacks, good distance) and the support (a spellcaster, knows 2 powers, good for buff and debuffs, not so good for dealing damage). Brutality is great! Fast, easy, lethal. Miniature agnostic, every terrain and models are valid. Good free rules, even greater Full version, where you have a lot more of advanced classes and scenarios to play. Good for fast paced matches, very modular system, use what you have. South americans and other 3rd world people like me are greateful with games like this.

    This is like a tutorial for wargaming, it has all the hallmark traits but made simple and neat

    • @tabletop-craftsman
      @tabletop-craftsman  Год назад +3

      I completely agree, it's just so much simpler to teach to someone who has never played a game like this, and it's also just quite fun!

    I may give this a try but will be converting measurement to nearest inch. All the games I play are in inches. I am fully locked into the imperial system but I try to keep an open mind to games with metric measurements. This game seems fun.

    • @tabletop-craftsman
      @tabletop-craftsman  Год назад +1

      Sounds good, should still work fine! I also had this exact same issue when playing warhammer before or after a few games of mini gangs, I keep wanting to use inches 😅
      Hope you'll enjoy it :)

    I realy like the Idea, so small, simple but IT looks realy intresting. I'll give it a try

    • @tabletop-craftsman
      @tabletop-craftsman  2 месяца назад +1

      Yeah it really is!
      You could easily bring just a few minis and a die to a friends place and have a game.
      Hope you'll enjoy :)

    Wow. Good tutorial, mate. I never heard of this game before, and I am gonna give it a go with my daughters and nephews. Looks like a lot of fun.

    • @tabletop-craftsman
      @tabletop-craftsman  Год назад +2

      Awesome, thanks! Glad you liked it and I hope your daughters and nephews will enjoy it :)
      I also never heard of it until I visited the creators store in Nottingham, great guy.

      @tabletop-craftsman  Год назад

      I completely agree! Simple, yet fun. And I like the depth the cards bring to the game. Makes it a lot more interesting for experienced wargamers as well :)

    This looks pretty cool looks like a great game to introduce new players to the hobby too or for quick fun game! Do you have any other similar games you might recommend? thanks for the cool tutorial

    • @tabletop-craftsman
      @tabletop-craftsman  Год назад +2

      Yeah it really is a fun game! Thank you, glad you enjoyed the video :)
      The same guy that made this game also made another game called nuclear renaissance. I don't know a lot about it, but I believe it also has rules for vehicles. The base game is free and it has one paid (but still cheap) expansion!
      Maybe that's something to check out?

      If you're looking for more free, simple and small miniature based games I recommend checking out "Brawl Arcane28" and "Necropolis28". Both rulesets are elegant, miniature agnostic and free to find online.

  • @chrisofrays
    @chrisofrays Год назад +2

    I like those scarecrow miniatures. Would they scale well with 32mm miniatures?

    • @tabletop-craftsman
      @tabletop-craftsman  Год назад +2

      Yeah they are great! They do scale well, but are maybe slightly on the smaller side. They are all ~35mm tall, except for the fighter which is ~30mm tall. For reference, they look quite normal next to my old Cadian shock troops. They are about the same height, but ghe base of the Cadians base is a bit thicker so they appear a bit taller. Hope that helps 👌

    sounds like a great way to get non gamers into tabletop games

  • @reddragon-emperor7387
    @reddragon-emperor7387 Год назад +2

    Seems like a fun simple game
    Like necromunda but a lot more simple.
    But going if CM seems so weird after using inches for so long

    • @tabletop-craftsman
      @tabletop-craftsman  Год назад +1

      It really is fun!
      And yeah I agree, you could easily convert it by making movement 4", crawl 2", etc.
      But after a game or two you'll be used to it

    Hi your free link to the rules isnt working?

    • @tabletop-craftsman
      @tabletop-craftsman  Год назад +2

      Hi! It appears to be working for me, but I added another link to Ramshackle Games' general download page. You should be able to find it their or through his website. Hope that works!

    • @lowercentenary
      @lowercentenary Год назад +2

      @tabletop-craftsman  Год назад +1

      If you've already played games like Warhammer or Mordheim I totally agree!
      But if you're trying to get a friend or child into the hobby I think it's a great stepping stone :)
