The new edition of Kill Team is almost upon us. These skirmish games can be played in several ways. That includes a new narrative campaign that you and your fellow players can progress along as you battle it out. We get a look at this campaign in this preview.

From the article:

One of our favourite things about Warhammer 40,000 is the choice of game modes on offer, going from fighting intense competitive showdowns one day to writing a new chapter in our army’s ongoing story the next. Kill Team, too, gives you multiple ways to play, and following on from our look at matched play games on Wednesday we’re diving deep into the world of narrative play Spec Ops campaigns today.

Longtime readers know that my favorite miniatures are the ones that stretch the bounds of the term "miniature." The Colossals are just such figures and Infernal players in Warmachine have not just one but two new colossals that they can now add to their collection.

From the article:

To break the valiant defense of those occupying the portal at Henge Hold, the infernal masters summoned something truly terrifying. The rituals took time and numerous sacrifices, but once completed, it brought forth these new behemoth horrors torn from the fabric of reality. With each massive step they took, the ground quaked, and their mere presence caused an aura of dread strong enough to disable all but the most stalwart heroes.

It’s the day all infernalists have been waiting for: both the Guardian and Harvester of Souls are now available. These models are part of the Black Anchor Heavy Industries (BAHI) line, so they are available only directly through our webstore. But before you jump directly over to the store, I’ll go over the rules for these two Colossal horrors and some of the development process for making them come to life.

Before getting to the first Colossal horror, I want to let you know that in forthcoming errata, we’ll add a slight update to how Colossal horrors work in general. For now, it is important to note that they effectively work exactly like Colossal warjacks and Gargantuan warbeasts, though they aren’t actually either warjacks or warbeasts. They will have new rule names (and will refer to Colossal horrors exclusively) but will use the same text as the rules on page 73 of the rulebook: Controlling a Gargantuan, Gargantuan Movement, Great Beast, Massive, and Ranged Attacks While in Melee.

A Lich. They make a great campaign baddie for your RPG games. But what if you want to delve a bit deeper beyond just a single stat block in a monster manual? That's where Liches: Dance Macabre comes in. It's a new RPG supplement for both 5th edition D&D and Pathfinder that's, well, all about the Lich Life. It's up on Kickstarter now.

From the campaign:

     Everyone hates liches – the Sorrow Lords – more than vampires, dragons, and demons. They are sentient, free-willed open wounds in reality who corrupt everything they touch. But, a lich that never leaves its crypt is not as frightening as one that goes soul hunting. A lich that never looks up from its magical work is not as useful as one that hunts the player characters.

     The purpose of this book is to expose a lich on many levels: its magic, its mind, its goals. In so doing, liches should become a flexible tool for GMs. Also, the player characters may become better prepared to deal with them.

This book offers, with rules for Pathfinder and 5E;6 lich archetype templates,

• 13 new spells,
• 4 new magic items,
• 12 new monsters,
• A full detailed lich lair,
• And 6 NPC liches, ready for use in a campaign!

     This book has chapters on, with rules for Pathfinder and 5E;

• The process of becoming a lich, and the physical decay of the body that drives them insane,
• The damage a lich does to the lands around it,
• The anti-vibrant social life of liches,
• How GMs may use the corruption and insanity of liches in a game,
• And how liches steal souls and wage war!

The campaign's making its way to halfway funded with 27 days left to go.

The international terrorist organization, Cobra, is looking to take over the world. In their way is an elite team of soldiers, each with their own unique abilities. This organizations name? G.I. Joe. Man, I certainly remember watching the cartoons and having the toys. And soon, there'll be a new card game to go with the collection as Renegade Game Studios has announced the G.I. JOE Deck-Building Game.

From the website:

Coming this October-

Yo Joe!

Fall In! The evil organization Cobra threatens the world with their schemes and it’s up to you to stop them!

In this Deck-Building game, you and your fellow players will lead teams of G.I. Joe soldiers on missions to stop Cobra’s dastardly plans! Each player starts the game with a meager deck that will grow more powerful as you recruit veterans from the G.I. Joe team, requisition gear, and field new vehicles. This fully cooperative game pits you against increasingly dangerous missions to save the world. This Core Set begins your journey with everything needed to play, but be prepared for more Joes and missions to come!

Rulebook available here.

Pre-orders include G.I. JOE Deck-Building Game Bonus Box #1, featuring Dawn Moreno as a G.I. JOE leader, an alternate round-marker, and a buildable punchboard hangar!

An elite squad of troopers. A dense, tropical jungle. Nearly impossible odds. A rescue may still be possible. That's what you're facing in Get To Da Choppa!, a new solo dice game that's up on Kickstarter now.

The Stormcast Eternals. The unequivocal "good guys" of the Age of Sigmar world. They're getting a new Battletome soon for the game and Games Workshop is giving you a first look inside, along with some of the new special rules that they'll be bringing to the table.

From the article:

The Era of the Beast is upon us. As Sigmar’s champions strike out across the realms on Dawnbringer Crusades, there’s no better time to muster a resplendent army of Thunderstrike Stormcast Eternals – first seen in the Dominion launch box. The rules in the new battletome are about to make them even more fearsome, and not least because they have dragons now.

The Stormcast Eternals still descend from the skies on bolts of lightning, as they have done since the Realmgate Wars, but new rules give these inspiring warriors the power to rally Cities of Sigmar forces to their cause. 

You can represent this in-game by deciding if your army is a Scions of the Storm force – the thunderbolt-riding warriors we all know and love – or a more defensive Stormkeep army.

I'm usually all about, "Friday! Woo!" but considering no other day has felt like the day it's supposed to be, neither has today. I guess that doesn't mean that I'm any less excited about it, technically speaking. I mean, whether it feels like Friday or not, it's still leading up to the weekend. So... yeah, Friday! Woo! And that means we need to snack on some bite-sized gaming stories. Today on the platter we have:

The gridiron is getting a new batch of players duking it out for dominance. Blacklist Games has announced Myth & Goal, a new fantasy sports game that they'll be bringing to Kickstarter soon.

From the website:

Myth & Goal is a miniatures board game of fantasy football for 1-2 players, designed by James Hewitt and Sophie Williams (Hellboy: The Board Game, Blitz Bowl). In the game, each player takes control of one of many unique teams defined by classic fantasy races, such as elves, dwarves, and orcs, and faces off against each other in a sport inspired by American football. While each team features players with their own strengths and weaknesses, players also choose a focus for their team that further defines how that team functions in the game.

​Using streamlined rules, custom dice, and highly detailed plastic miniatures, Myth & Goal delivers an exciting and fast paced fantasy football experience that players won’t find anywhere else. The modular team creation ensures that every player can easily find their desired playstyle combined with their favorite classic fantasy races. Players can also use the free agent rules to build their own custom all-star teams using different combinations of players from all available teams.

 In addition, players can watch their teams grow and develop using the league rules or practice their strategy on their own against an AI team using the solo game rules, both included in the core game!
