    Edition 3.5 as i like it to call it (the red book) is probably the best rule book i have ever used for wargaming.

  • @TableTopTransformer
    @TableTopTransformer Před 2 měsíci

    The only issue is that cok '24 is not worth buying unless you play twilight kin

  • @Lessons_from_the_front
    @Lessons_from_the_front Před 2 měsíci

    Rank and file. The linguistic evolution to 'flank' is understandable as players who don't know miniature gaming enter but it sounds really odd in a video about the history of this sort of game.

    Love the relationship between Mantic and the community, I wish more people would try anything other than GW, they do not deserve the unflinching loyalty they somehow have.😊

    When are they going to fix the KoM General on Pegasus? He is missing an attack! It is listed as 4, not 5, like his foot and horse-mounted versions, which makes him over-priced an undesirable and a never used option! (Even the Hero hero retains all of his attacks when mouted on the pegasus!)

    The only problem I can see is the quality of the miniatures. My gaming friends flat out refused the game because of it. And now old world is out. Unfortunately Warhammer is back baby.

      Take a look at Ambush - you can play on a smaller table size with modified rules to play with just a few units.

    • @JMcMillen
      @JMcMillen Před 5 měsíci

      For skirmish games you'd need Kings of War Vanguard. Unfortunately, I don't think they've done anything with that game in years. The stuff is still for sale so you could give it a try.

    It’s certainly tempting, the hardest part for a newcomer is “which of these armies”. Particularly if you know some wargame mechanics for other games and aren’t sure how that translates into the KoW world

  • @nurglerider781
    @nurglerider781 Před 6 měsíci

    Awesome video. I'm new to KoW but my son and I are loving it. Some constructive criticism, please invest in a pop filter, every time you say a word with p in it there is an annoying pop in the audio, very pronounced with headphones. Loving your videos though man and looking forward to more, KoW and Mantic in general deserve way more coverage than they get.

  • @Gaddafied23
    @Gaddafied23 Před 6 měsíci

    KOW is truly the best tabletop fantasy game that I've played and it's allowed me and my local community to have large scale mass battles in half the time as the games are fast, clean and most importantly my head doesn't hurt after multiple games. You can get a 2000pt game done easily within 2 hours. The other cool aspect is the hobby - KOW allows a lot of focus on hobby with multibasing and dioramas which are awesome and lends itself to having more players who are hobby focused.

  • @ERBarratt

    whilst all the images focus on the tournament scene this is also a great club/garage game, being able to get a game played to conclusion in an evening due to the straight forwards rules is a real plus.

    Yea the current rulebook has all the army lists! And the latest Clash of Kings supplement will feature the updates from the rulebook. 1 main book and 1 supplement is all you need to have all the rules and all 28 army lists of the game!

  • @mathewsellick
    @mathewsellick Před 6 měsíci

    Great video! I cannot agree more about Kings of War being a streamlined, multi layered game which is easy to learn, hard to master. Its easy to look past the simple fact its only in its 3rd edition on its continued journey of being the best rank and flank gaming system and community in the world.

  • @pforson
    @pforson Před 6 měsíci

    Great game. Super fun to play and multi-basing makes armies look amazing. I love it! 👍

  • @johnmitchell9000
    @johnmitchell9000 Před 6 měsíci

    Yes this is a Great game. The game engine concept is very good and different. But the darkside is that you need to buy new updated Clash of Kings update books (think Codex's) each year. The lists in the "New" rulebook I just bought a year ago are already out of date, unless I use the Clash of Kings 2024 update. Without the free Mantic army builder that makes updated lists, my friends and I would be done with the game. Great game. But its too bad the company is turning into GW.

    • @HordesofThings
      @HordesofThings Před 6 měsíci

      Hmm I think more like day and night different. -Mantic is a free update once a year to keep up interest, growth and do some minor balancing tweaks, with rules developed by expert commmunity design team. Yes you can purchase a single (one, 1, uno), Clash of Kings update book a year IF you want all the new lore, but you can instead just use the free app as you say, which is what many of my local group do. This is day. -GW is very expensive codex power creep and wild imbalances every couple of months, and an incompetent design team in charge. This is night.

    • @limazulu1065
      @limazulu1065 Před 6 měsíci

      It's only one book per year, and you actually don't even need to buy it, because the Companion App updates automatically.

    • @durnaxe8708
      @durnaxe8708 Před 6 měsíci

      While I don't play the game (wish I could find players) but having point update are huge. I play Team Yankee and Flames of War and those games don't get point updates which is a huuuuge balancing problem. Oh boy I'm glad the most battle tested combat vehicle in history (the USA M1A1 Abrams) is 100% worthless in my games! So while you may "need" to get a book points update once a year. Its better then GWs every 6 months and new edition every 4 years, or the opposite of never getting a points update and looking at your cool models and going "wow I wish I could use those but they get removed from the table as fast as I put them on it".
