Chucklemonkey Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 (edited) Just wondering if anyone else had been folowing the Studio McVey releases for their sci-fi range sedition wars? Now that i'm solely dedicated to skirmish games this looks like it could deal with my sci-fi itch (Although the sodaverse is still in contention) http://seditionwars.com/ Edit: Should this be in news and reviews? I wasn't sure. Edited April 22, 2011 by Chucklemonkey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't sure. Never heard of it before, but the models look interesting. If you want to deal with your Scifi Itch chuckle, check out Infinity. Has good reviews, got a variety of model types and factions as well as some really nice models since the thing is a bit anime inspired as well.

I have never been a huge fan of Infinity, the rules always seem a bit dense to me.... but then I am a bit of a beer and pizza player. On a side note, I saw some of the the seditition wars stuff at Salute last weekend. It looks really nice, but it is very early days - I will watch it with great interest, as I am a huge fan of Mike McVey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FoeRender Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 looks ok just not enough factions for me , I need at least 4 to look at it . check out dark age , i saw some at the club playing it and it looked cool , more like low scifi .

nilus Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 I love infinities models but I am not a fan of the rules. There is some other skirmish game out there thats scifi. Can't remember the name but I know you use cards to measure range and such. Personally I want MALIFAUX IN SPAAAAACCEEEEE! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EricJ Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 "Malifaux in Space" is well into production (I wonder how long it will take for this made up rumor to spread ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nilus Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 "Malifaux in Space" is well into production (I wonder how long it will take for this made up rumor to spread ) That is in direct contradiction to what Zee, Bowen and sKeTcH said at Adepticon...Which means it must be totally true.

Buhallin Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 There is some other skirmish game out there thats scifi. Can't remember the name but I know you use cards to measure range and such. Sounds like MERCS. Looks interesting, but very limited model range so far and getting a lot of "Meh" commentary on the rules from our local players. I looked at Infinity, and the rules just didn't grab me at all. Being able to dump your entire team's activations into a single model over and over felt very wrong to me even before you hit the confusion of the reactions. And even though I liked the overall theme, I found the models lacked variety. I may just be spoiled by Malifaux on that last bit, though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tenabrae Posted April 25, 2011 Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 MERCS is interesting but the card movement needs to be replaced with a ruler, it just doesn't work in 3D terrain. Infinity is a lot of fun, but you _must_ play a scenario or the whole one model army thing gets silly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Necromorph Posted April 25, 2011 Report Share Posted April 25, 2011 Infinity is an awesome Sci-fi skirmish game. Lots of good things about it, and it's one of the most balanced, intuitive rule sets I've ever played (nothing against Malifaux lol).

Chucklemonkey Posted July 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2011 I know it's bad form thread-o-mancing my own thread but they have now released some art of what I can only assume to be the enemy in the first game to be released in the setting. Known as The Strain, images here. http://studiomcvey.blogspot.com/ Models will apparently be debut-ed at Gen-con along with some early rules for the game which appears to be a tile based board game in the first instance. I'm actually getting quite excited about it, as I seem to be drawn ever more to smaller and smaller scale games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chucklemonkey Posted August 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2011 1st ruleset available for download and testing for those interested. http://studiomcvey.com/forums/index.php?/topic/163-download-sedition-wars-alpha-v1-rules-cards/page__pid__1115#entry1115 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cerealkiller195 Posted August 15, 2011 Report Share Posted August 15, 2011 Sedition Wars looked VERY crispy at Gen Con, though the rules are still in testing. I didn't get a chance to demo but the models look great so I will definitely keep an eye on it. Though I will agree that more factions would have to be presented to be more tempting than just "nice miniatures". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
