If these are the hottest games at UKGE than I didn’t miss much….. StarCraft looks good though, but having 0 experience with the video game, I am not sure is for me.
I’m in the same boat. I did play a lot of Starcraft but the miniature game just doesn’t tempt me. Lords & Legends by Duncan and friends could be interesting but so far to little information on that. Well, lets not forget UKGE is a games expo and not a “miniature games expo” so it’s only natural for the most stuff there being of little interest 😉
Yeah I thought that. Starcraft looks good and I am picking it but, game play has blended elements of mesbg and star wars legion with its own additions. However I am a fan of the franchise and the zeratul promo was fun to paint. If I wasn’t a fan I am not sure I would pick up, there are so many good games at present I have to be selective, there is only so much time, money and space.
Thanks for the overview. Spotted a couple of things that look cool. It looks like there are some great small games at the show this year so a few of those on the list for sure.
