- Mini Gangs is an awesome, affordable and easy to learn game for beginning wargamers.
I played it a few times with some of my friends and they seemed to enjoy it!
Since it's a relatively unknown game I thought I'd make this video to introduce others to the game :)
It's a great wargame for beginner!
The game was developed by Curtis Fell, owner of Ramshackle games.

Reminded me of the 4 basic classes for Brutality, by Scott Wainwright. You have the Melee (hard hitting, durable, good defender), Fast (mobile, more attacks, goood for taking points), Ranged (2 ranged attacks, good distance) and the support (a spellcaster, knows 2 powers, good for buff and debuffs, not so good for dealing damage). Brutality is great! Fast, easy, lethal. Miniature agnostic, every terrain and models are valid. Good free rules, even greater Full version, where you have a lot more of advanced classes and scenarios to play. Good for fast paced matches, very modular system, use what you have. South americans and other 3rd world people like me are greateful with games like this.
That sounds very cool! I'll have to check it out. Thanks for sharing :)
This is like a tutorial for wargaming, it has all the hallmark traits but made simple and neat
I completely agree, it's just so much simpler to teach to someone who has never played a game like this, and it's also just quite fun!
It's been a while but I'm back! Hopefully you enjoyed :)
Let me know if you want more content like this or about Mini Gans specifically.
Maybe more of a review/gameplay video?
I may give this a try but will be converting measurement to nearest inch. All the games I play are in inches. I am fully locked into the imperial system but I try to keep an open mind to games with metric measurements. This game seems fun.
Sounds good, should still work fine! I also had this exact same issue when playing warhammer before or after a few games of mini gangs, I keep wanting to use inches 😅
Hope you'll enjoy it :)
I really like mine a lot. The creator Curtis is a great guy as well.
Yeah he really is!
Thanks for watching :)
Sounds like an awesome game! Thanks for the great tutorial!
It really is a fun game!
Glad you liked it :)
sounds like a great way to get non gamers into tabletop games
Yeah, it sure is!
Wow. Good tutorial, mate. I never heard of this game before, and I am gonna give it a go with my daughters and nephews. Looks like a lot of fun.
Awesome, thanks! Glad you liked it and I hope your daughters and nephews will enjoy it :)
I also never heard of it until I visited the creators store in Nottingham, great guy.
Obsessed with the Scarecrow models
Yeah they are really great!
Sounds amazing. Goona try that with some star wars random prepainted mini i found for close to nothing second hand.
Thanks for the video ❤❤❤
Nice! Glad you enjoyed it, and thank you :)
Great video. Thanks!
Glad you liked it!
Mini gangs is a lot of fun!
I completely agree! Simple, yet fun. And I like the depth the cards bring to the game. Makes it a lot more interesting for experienced wargamers as well :)
Seems like a fun simple game
Like necromunda but a lot more simple.
But going if CM seems so weird after using inches for so long
It really is fun!
And yeah I agree, you could easily convert it by making movement 4", crawl 2", etc.
But after a game or two you'll be used to it
The best is One Page Rules
Yeah, I've heard good things about them!
I like those scarecrow miniatures. Would they scale well with 32mm miniatures?
Yeah they are great! They do scale well, but are maybe slightly on the smaller side. They are all ~35mm tall, except for the fighter which is ~30mm tall. For reference, they look quite normal next to my old Cadian shock troops. They are about the same height, but ghe base of the Cadians base is a bit thicker so they appear a bit taller. Hope that helps 👌
This looks pretty cool looks like a great game to introduce new players to the hobby too or for quick fun game! Do you have any other similar games you might recommend? thanks for the cool tutorial
Yeah it really is a fun game! Thank you, glad you enjoyed the video :)
The same guy that made this game also made another game called nuclear renaissance. I don't know a lot about it, but I believe it also has rules for vehicles. The base game is free and it has one paid (but still cheap) expansion!
Maybe that's something to check out?
@@tabletop-craftsman ill have to give it a look thanks for the suggestion! look forward to more of your videos
No problem, glad to hear you're enjoying my videos :)
If you're looking for more free, simple and small miniature based games I recommend checking out "Brawl Arcane28" and "Necropolis28". Both rulesets are elegant, miniature agnostic and free to find online.
Terug van weggeweest 🔥🔥
You know it baby😎
Hi your free link to the rules isnt working?
Hi! It appears to be working for me, but I added another link to Ramshackle Games' general download page. You should be able to find it their or through his website. Hope that works!
Hi I tried again as you suggested and your correct it works! Thank you so much for the video and the help😊...its a great game!
No problem at all! Glad you enjoyed the video and the game :)
The best is subjective...
Yes :)
way too simple...
If you've already played games like Warhammer or Mordheim I totally agree!
But if you're trying to get a friend or child into the hobby I think it's a great stepping stone :)
