Kohdok Reviews Dystopian Wars Sturginium Skies

[@Miscast]

Ahhhh Dystopian Wars that's a name I haven't heard in a looooong time

[@benjaminnoble9565]

TIL: Miscast watches Kohdok, cool. 😎

[@Miscast]

@@benjaminnoble9565 big fan!

[@benjaminnoble9565]

@@Miscast that's awesome, same here! Also big fan of yours! I missed out on your toads though I wanted one so bad.

[@leftygurl]

i absolutely would not be able to afford or build this, but having a canadian army with a halifax-class ship really tickles me, like hey! that’s where i’m from! neat!

[@Irishrover13]

It is cheap only 100 bucks from 401 games.

[@DuelistKoi93]

Ok, i'm sold... this does look pretty rad. Will see if i can get my hands on this

[@gmradio2436]

Wait. That background music. Ciaphis Cain, Hero of the Imperiam by the artist formally known as Officio Auditorium?

[@martinevans9757]

Short, sharp and easy to follow rules summary. Damn fine work, Kohdok!

[@dawafflesupreme]

I really like that they give you full rulebook

[@theinternetofficer6594]

14:44 Im pretty sure that Undergating, to but the sprues into the seam of a model to that the nub mark doesnt appear on the surface of the model, usually u just clip those off with nippers and either slice off with hobby knife or sand them off

[@17blaziken]

Bro, there is also only one rulebook. The set is meant to be split on the model side, but they are basically made to be played one against the other, but I agree that a second template set would speed up the game in general. Or just buy 2 starter for doubling up on everything :D

[@Irishrover13]

Rules are free online too.

[@17blaziken]

@@Irishrover13 you can also download and print template, tbf

[@Irishrover13]

@@17blaziken yah and terrain. I enjoy the game a great deal.

[@anonymousgeoff5399]

They've also created single player starter sets for the factions which aren't covered in the two player starter sets. For the rules, it is best to go online as they are still updating quite regularly.

[@LuvzToLol21]

Hey Kohdok, just a bit of advice. The second "t" in Toronto is silent, we locals pronounce it "Turonno". Otherwise I love the Canadian naval units so much!

[@kid14346]

Part of me is really interested in this, part of me is also a little bit iffy about using real world nations... you know given what kind of people 'enjoy' the Prussian Iron Cross. Warhammer is already struggling with this issue and another game setting itself up for it is concerning. Also speaking of Miniatures combat games... will you be looking at the new Heroscape Reboot?

[@Kohdok]

Warhammer? The authoritarian theocracy where people worship the rotten corpse of an utter fool who only brought out the worst in humanity? That is so rotten to the core that the most common source of food is made from the corpses of other people? Like, the THEME of the brand is that the people in charge are constantly making the worst possible decisions. Folks think that's an example to aspire to and live by? Yeah, with some people you just can't cure stupid. The same sort of stupid that thought Homelander was the good guy in The Boys. I hope it's clear the Imperium was cast as the villain in this review.

@@Kohdok "worship the rotten corpse of an utter fool who only brought out the worst in humanity? ... Folks think that's an example to aspire to and live by?" Xenophobic Empire that kills all the non-humans really appeals to the most shitty people. As you said though, you can't cure stupid. Luckily you made it obvious the Prussians were a bad guy invading force in this review.

[@gmradio2436]

Wait until you find out about the aliens that are trying to invade, the icebreakers with freeze rays, the mad scientist that turn whales into cyborgs, the flying dragon mechs or the giant Knight Templer robots. Or the giant river boats with revolver cannons.

[@xekon14]

They're not nazi's but if you got problems with players being radical pricks just kick them from the store?

[@AwesomeMoss]

It seems bnoth you and I are transitioning away from TCGs into wargaming. I just recently quit Yugioh for Age of Sigmar. Would love to see more content like this.

[@gmradio2436]

Dystopian Wars content? To day is a good day to assemble some models.

[@notabene9804]

like, while these mini games are cool, and its dope that people are into them, I really get concerned about the ecological imprint of something like this and 40k when I see these sorts of sets, especially the bulk plastic that never makes it onto a battlefield (frames, nubs, etc).

[@NeroVingian40]

Interesting notion you have there. Imo, wargaming isn’t making a big sale afaik, the biggest one here would be Gunplas, with sales numbers ever increasing YoY since forever.

[@hickknight]

Cannot help but vibe to your choice of attorney music. Oh, the game? Sounds interesting, probably will never play it. Should I play a miniatures game? I'm already trying to invest in a different TCG.

[@DeconvertedMan]

looks like a lot of work :D

[@Kenningar00]

Man.... The minis are awesome but those combat rules are such a turn off 😅

[@gunnernwp8392]

If you want to look at a game I loved but change to much for me to fallow check out wild west exodus.

[@gmradio2436]

This is the same universe. Why did Weylend Games merge them? No clue.
