I played my first game of Frostgrave and wanted to take a moment to give my first impressions of the game. TLDR......it is a great game for in between sessions of D&D and will likely be comfortable and easy to pick up for TTRPG players.

I wish I would have waited one day to use your link!!
Can you make an iron Gollum
Simon Diedrich - No. But maybe an iron Smeagol.
I play rangers of shadow deep (same author) and it’s fantastic!
I'm going to start, sir! In fact, I'm dropping a super-expensive KS pledge because of this video! Thanks, J!
Frostgrave really boosted the amount of crafting that I was doing. Lots of broken walls and statues. I still use that scatter in my D&D game. PLUS, the creator is suuuuuuuper available and active on its FB group.
Rangers of Shadow Deep is his new release. Its a co-op and allows for solo play. Big Win all around
TheJankmaster I really want to try that game. I like the idea of it being co-op.
Yeah. RoSD is great. "Rangers" refers more to the organization they belong to. So you can build your 'ranger' to fit almost any trope from spell slinger to armored tank.
@TheJankmaster
Is RoSD only available on Kindle? I'm not seeing a hard cover on Amazon...
I LOVE Rangers. I’ve been playing with my kids, and it got me into making terrain!
Hello. Not speaking English, I use google tratuction so I apologize in advance if the text is sometimes difficult to understand. First of all thank you for all the time and energy you put into this channel. I discovered it by chance a few weeks ago and I was immediately hooked. So I'm going back to all your videos from the beginning. I who had never done that, I'm already at a dozen craft. In fact, the construction of tiles and scenery is really something very addictive^^. Having bought Frostgrave for Christmas, I can't wait to see what you're going to offer us as decorations. Thanks again for everything.
If you like Frostgrave you are going to love Rangers of Shadowdeep.
This. This. THIS.
Rangers is also just incredible and Joe is killing it with the works he's putting into it.
Yup, just got rangers and I’m working on building up my creature store so I can play proper!
Yeah rangers is the game I've played most since getting it,
Rangers is an awesome game. I'm currently working on my minis and terrain to start the campaign.
I would love to see him do an RoSD scenery build series.
A few years ago my group started Frostgrave. I hot glued random cardboard pieces at right angles and tent folded strips of paper with the unit name on it. 20 minutes later we we're playing. Now we use Legos.
Just grabbed a copy of the core rules via your link. Love the channel. This gives me an excuss to make more terrain. Keep up the good work.
Great game , it's expansions are also great
Just picked up some oathmark dwarves to build a warband for this yesterday! Its slowly building a following in Australia and I'm hoping to get my group onto it asap
Yay, Frostgrave! Looking forward to your builds.
I recommend picking up the Maze of Malcor book and using the new experience rules. They were crafted by the designer after a couple of years of feedback from players, and put less emphasis on killing enemy wizards as well as reduce the snowball effect that can happen in a longer campaign.
I got myself a copy!
Here in the north of Germany it is quite popular.
If you liked frostgrave you maybe should give mordheim a try.
It is a gw game but is not supported anymore but you can get some really good miniatures from other companys or use your own.
Rules are in the web for free.
In the game you get to build not only your own wizard you build a complete warband.
I liked it because it quite feels more like an pen and paper game then every other tabletop game
Maybe give it a try?
Frostgrave and this style is great. The jungle version of this (ghost archipelago )is also amazing. If you’re looking for a post apocalypse game like this. This is not a test is a great option. If you want zombies, last days. You want frostgrave with 40k , scrappers. All those games let you use your own minis and I really love that. If you want a twist on this. Try kobolds and cobblestones, it use a deck of cards and a poker mechanic in basically waterdeep. The gang leader dies but has hit his treasure all over the city and you create a gang to go find it. I really like that one as well
I really like Frostgrave... I'm checking out Rangers of Shadow Deep which was written by the same guy and uses the same system. But it's solo or co-op!
No freaking way. I just bought this on amazon yesterday!!!! DM Jim is so into it I had to buy it!! Man I love your channel. Same wave lengths man. 🍻🍻🍻
This sounds so cool man. Gonna pick up a copy and suggest this to my friends. We run into a similar problem were we are not able to play and some players have different taste in a fantasy TTRPG (ie lore and story vs. action and loot gameplay). I also really like that this will allow/inspire you to build more dope projects. Looking forward to more great vids.
Wow awesome! I bought this book one week ago after getting intrigued from the mention of it in your bexims bazaar review video! Gonna play it with chunks of my DND crew as well! your channel is so valuable to me. Thanks for your hard work and good luck in the grim frostbitten ruins!!
I've been building minis for this game myself, I'm so happy that you're getting it to it!
Scheduling with my multiple personalities is a breeze... a cold breeze...
I need more unemployed and unmarried friends.
@@BlackMagicCraftOfficial actually, in all seriousness, you need to organise games at a retirement village. Plenty of intelligent people with tonnes of free time who don't travel far.
We're all jealous because the voices talk to you.
@@BlackMagicCraftOfficial turns out that demo graphic isn't super fun to hang out with
@@TheDungineer But ladies named Ethyl and Myrtle make the best cookies.
Your a few books behind. Frostgrave has been out for a bit and it just keeps getting better. Being able to use your own minis and learning curb is the best. Only problem is the loyalists to D&D and other war games, do not like competition have done a lot to shut it down and yet they are still publishing more campaigns. Keep playing and enjoy it all.
Love frostgrave , way easier to get started and play than other table top fantasy. Long term the game is still great with additional books adding to content spells and rules options.
Smaller table size, small armies, faster games.
Awesome!
Sold! Just got a copy, the spellcards, and the folio
Every other Sunday, I play D&D with a regular group. It has changed players over the years, and I think its for the better. Sometimes new blood invigorates older players. Also I haven't played Frostgrave, I almost Kickstarted it awhile back. However, I do play Warhammer Age of Sigmar... Since you mentioned kill team I will tell you it looks like were getting a Fantasy version of Kill Team soon. The benefit to having a group of friends that play Age of Sigmar is the incredible amount and high quality of fantasy miniatures perfect for D&D. We add those to an already large list of D&D and other miniatures and terrain and we have pretty high quality games. 3d Printer and crafting our own terrain out of materials like you do in your vids. Looking forward to more content like this.
I'll have to check it out! Our schedule conflict game has been Mutants and Masterminds. It's a Superhero RPG kind if dnd ish but it's set up not to directly continuous from the session before, in fact each session is supposed to play out like an issue of a comic book. It makes character drop in/drop out super easy and you just play with whoever could make it
Frost grave sounds fun and it's always good to keep options open!
So glad you've discovered and enjoyed Frostgrave. It's easily my favorite skirmish game. The Expansion books add more fun (new roles, new rules, new magic items, etc) and as your wizard grows in power, the game gets crazy fun.
I played 1E once with some friends and we all enjoyed it. I've got a new band of heroes now and we are going to try out 2E next week and I am totally pumped!!! Like yourself, I hope to use Frostgrave to fill in the "in between" times when folks can't all commit to a D&D game. I've gone so far as to write Frostgrave into the lore of my homebrew D&D world.
Excellent video and Frostgrave is an amazing game. I would recommend going online and downloading the spell cards for reference during the game. You should also try Gaslands for a similar fun experience.
Yea, I printed out all the cards and put them in sleeves.
Frostgrave is an awesome game. I've been playing it since it was released. Check out Rangers of Shadow Deep. Also the monsters in Frostgrave have the same stats as the monsters in Rangers of Shadow Deep.
This video helped me discover what is now my favorite game. Thanks a million Jeremy!
I am just getting into this game with my kids too. We haven't built our first warbands yet, but it looks awesome to me so far.
I actuallly started watching your channel, because we are starting a Frostgrave-campaingn right now and that got me motivated for tzhe hobby^^
The expansions are also really great. They add new minions and different play styles.
'Thaw of the Lich Lord' is a bit more story and coop focused.
'Into the breeding pits' gives a dungeon crawl setting.
All in all the expansions focus a lot on boosting the non-player faction and pushing the players more to decide whether to work together or against each other.
Of course this means they are a lot more specific on the miniatures used for the monsters, which still are very generic. Cultists for the Lich Lord, Gnolls for the Breeding pits and so on.
With the official Frostgrave infantry boxes this isn't such a problem as they are awesome and offer a bang for the buck.
I'm really glad to see you enjoy Frostgrave! :D
Only tip I have is not to use the optional Criticals rule in the beginning.
En España hay una gran comunidad que jugamos a este maravilloso wargame.
@factoria tabletop Desde Japón? 😱
@factoria tabletop Jajaja gracias por los piropos pero ya te digo que famoso poco jajaja
Es similar a Mordheim? Mejor, peor,mas sencillo? Me gustaria saber alguna opinio comparando :)
Thanks so much for the content. It has help rekindle my love for this game. Also solo rules coming out this year sounds pretty good too!
I have the rules in PDF, have not played yet but I agree wholeheartedly that a game without an accompanying hobby cone to drive sales is AWESOME.
Happy to hear you enjoyed Kill Team, it is the only 40k related game I play semi-regularly, and it seems to be an all round favourite for those that like the tactical side of the tabletop. Frostgrave is ace! Plus, it gave us the very first poseable plastic gnoll kit, and what a little jewel that is! XD
Thanks for doing a review, your enthusiasm and the price won me over... *clicks place order... Order complete.
This game makes me think of Ars Magica RPG, its has you playing a wizard with a companion and a clutch of serfs (called Grogs) so each player would contribute several personalities to the Covenant, the home of the wizards. If this system was around back when I was playing it, I would have used it for sure. Might even revisit it again after all these years. Thanks BMC.
About to host a 9 week Frostgrave campaign at my local game store! Made battle report sheets and everything for it! Love this system, and I play Rangers of Shadow Deep every Tuesday!
going to be stopping by my local game store tomorrow. Will have to keep an eye out to see if they have this :)
Oh man, you'd love Rangers of Shadow Deep.
Why? Just because it is an awesome solo/co-op RPG light game that... never mind, yeah, he would probably like it.
Warriors of WaterDeep? xD
Love some Frostgrave. it was the focus of my hobby time for a good while. I now have a mini for every single monster and all of the terrain and tokens needed for any particular scenario from the Frozen City books (including enough lasercut dungeon walls, doors, and furnishings for a full 3x3 table).
First piece of advice: If you want to expand and improve your games, the first things to pick up are "Into the Breeding Pits" (for dungeon crawling rules, including things like traps and secret passages that can be added to any Frostgrave game) and the "Frostgrave Folio" (mostly for Dark Alchemy and Sellsword, but it's all pretty good).
Second piece of advice: Don't get too hung up on minis for some of the more obscure critters from the Bestiaries. While I've found Bones has an option for most everything I didn't already have for RPGs and Dungeon Saga, I did have to go with proxies for lack of a good option...or just because I had another mini I REALLY wanted to use. In my games, there are no giant centipedes, but there are scorpions. "White Gorillas" are actually a furry beast with 4 arms.
And lastly, if you like Frostgrave, you should definitely take a look at Rangers of Shadow Deep. It uses pretty much the same system, with the addition of skills, abilities in place of spells, and more flexibility in selecting a warband for missions. There are a ton of customization options, and the setting is very archtypical fantasy. The biggest difference is that the game is designed to be played either solo or cooperative. Rather than you vs. the opponent vs. the monsters, it's you and up to 3 other Rangers (and henchmen) against the monsters.
You did it!!!! I follow you since I want to play Frostgrave. I'll definitly share this video in French FB frostgrave community
Osprey just gave away a pdf of the core and one of the expansions(Dark Alchemy) for free yesterday. I'm glad to hear you like it! I'm excited to get into it.
Been looking recently at Mordheim and kept hearing about this game. Nice to see this vid up on BMC & definitely need to look more into this game. Always glad to see games like Necromunda where there's lots of random things like the environment, campaigns & a game that's boring if up just line up to fight (have to go after objectives).
You'll really gonna love the Frostgrave infantry boxes :D
Been playing since it came out! I have a ton of the D&D pre- painted minis, they work great!
I have loved this game since the first time I opened the book a few years ago!
Kings of War: Vanguard is a great game in a similar vein. They have free rules on the mantic site and you can use whatever models you want. I would love to see you review it!
The game is a breeze to houserule.
My own houserule is to have a bonus treasure in the center of the board so players don't just take the easiest treasures and run.
Something he fixed in GA.
Ooooo you are doing Deathguard Killteam too? Can’t wait to see that! I love watching your D&D terrain tutorials but Warhammer terrain would be even better for me personally 😁
Thanks for sharing this with us man. Very good advise. Not sure if I’ll get a chance to run/play it.... but I really appreciate your honest and down right helpful opinion! Top notch content Jeremy.
Picked up a copy today. Glad to help out, even if its only a little! Great review. Thanks brotha!
I started watching Black magic craft specifically to make terrain for Frostgrave. One suggestion I can give is pick up 'The Frostgrave Folio' early on in your campaign. I say this because it has rules for a captain which is a third class type and more permanent member that can increase in stats aside from the wizard and apprentice.
Just ordered it last night. Still can’t believe the low pricing on the FG books.
So glad that you enjoyed the game. It really is a fine and fun system to play through. Its been suffering a little bit as of late in my area, but at least it still has an active player base across the world. One of the cooler subjects about the game is also the plastic figures that have come out with the game and how easy they can be applied to other systems. Take the basic soldier box, you can make most fighter/paladin/rouge options for dnd settings. Also the figures are the same scale as warhammer fantasy. I've made medieval guardsmen and female guardsmen with the various plastic sets.
Its also a fun world to apply to fantasy settings with hooks and adventures to use in RPGs. 'A city of in the frozen north has been found and wizards are hiring mercenaries' or 'a long lost archipelago has appeared, filled with untold treasures and dangers'. Really it is a fun game to use for campaigns and one offs with the system.
As a experienced Frostgrave player I am really happy seeing you exploring Felstadt - really looking forward to all your Frostgrave related projects. If you want a more narrative driven campaign, you should definitely try out the first expansion: Thaw of the Lich Lord. ;-)
Dude, you are great at explaining stuff. Do a how to play Frostgrave please! :)
Yeah! Step by step how to with real gameplay!
there is this channel called "watch it played", it's got a nice little series of 4 videos with all the explaining for the setup/gameplay
Price is up to 23$ US on Amazon right now. Definitely going to check it out. So Josh, this was a year ago. You still playing and enjoying the game?
You had me at "You can build more complex terrain that you couldn't normally justify". I'm sold!
The terrain opportunities are endless in Frostgrave. Different levels above ground and subt. Your channel has nailed this game and if you put together some terrain in multiple levels with walk-ways the game will really pop. Don't forget to mention the additional supplements which give you many scenarios based around a single final objective over the number of games. When this game was released I immediately thought of it as an AD&D style encounter game. There is also Ghost Archipelago which is Frostgrave in a different environment. Others have mentioned 'Rangers' by the same author and it seems to me that this style of game will get even stronger as long as it is supported.
I am suprised I never saw this video before. The whole reason I watch your videos is for Frostgrave/Rangers of Shadowdeep. Well, some of it I use for other games, but mainly those two.
So happy to see this review and to see that you have the beginnings of the FGV bug. I have found it and Gaslands deeply addictive. I love FGV for all of the reasons you give. I am always drawn to games that you have to finish yourself so I love that the rules and world are fairly simple and that you have to build your warband and create lots of terrain. Both FGV and Gaslands are like this.
There is actually tons of depth to the game, with the campaign system, the numerous supplements, the Ulterior Motive cards (awesome), and the North Star minis. I just got a review copy of The Wizards' Conclave, which is a collection of solo, regular, and coop scenarios for FGV written by some big names in gaming: Ash Barker, Alessio Cavatore, Andy Chambers, Gav Thorpe, Sean Sutter, and more.
And even though the game is mini agnostic, the North Star minis are some of my fave mini kits ever. The multi-part kits (Soldiers, Cultists, Barbarians, Wizards, etc) are so great. 20 models per box, great sculpts, and endless design options. I can't stop making minis for this game with these kits.
I actually ordered the cultists box. Will be using that with some Reaper Dark Haven minis for Wiz/Aprentice. Went necromancer......because.......aesthetics😂
@@BlackMagicCraftOfficial The Cultist box is very cool. Has a number of skeleton or zombie-skels you can make along with regular cultists. I'm excited about the new Soldiers II (all female) and the Wizards box. I have several Sigilist wizards that I play (built on the Reaper Elf Warlock and Reaper Zayafid Pathfinder). My son plays a Necromancer (Dark Heaven Wizard Quillscratch). My sigilist apprentice is the one from the FGV Sigilist blister from North Star.
Sold! I have the same problem in my group. Too many grownups with things to do. Once a month meeting and we were already looking at Frost Grave. Thanks for the review!!!
Thank you for this review. I wondered what Frostgrave was. As I want to move away from complicated and scheduling problems, I'll look into this.
Definitely gonna look into this game. Looks awesome
My copy arrived in the mail last week. I have read the rules a few times and l think it will be fun. I am now building some winter terrain. I picked up 40 of the bottle brush pine trees you did a video on. It would be good it if you did a winter version. I am not sure to do two layers of flocking on woodland green and another of snow. Or just go strait snow.
I might actually do winter versions of those trees. I bought an extra bag just incase I wanted to do that. I will likely take them through the same stages as the other ones, getting the green looking good, then add snow on top of that and to the base. I think this will make the best look.
Looking forward to trying out frostgrave, and am also working on some gaslands cars, as well... I am probably going to try out a few different designs before locking anything down, and actually painting or detailing any matchbox or hotwheels cars... Am planning on using some blue poster tack to mount misc weapons temporarily, and see what feels best. Also plan on trying to expand our dnd group into an alternative games day on a second or third weekend of the month, so it doesn't feel so long between dnd games on first Saturday... We shall see
The primary reason I found your channel is that I needed Frostgrave terrian. Welcome to the wonderful world of war gaming! 😁👍
Interesting review that has inspired me to check this game out. Thanks!
Man, i love Frost Grave!
So excited to see what new terrain project ideas this will spark here!
Frostgrave is great! One of my D&D groups plays this as well. It was so easy to learn and the game flowed smoothly. It’s also a low investment game in both time and money. Agreed on all of your points. This was great to see!
Great, thanks again Jeremy, I was looking for such a gain for ages! I will look at it closely ;)
Awesome game! Also worth mentioning, there are other campaign books, with more scenarios to play; so the game doesn’t feel stale playing the same ones all the time.
cold season is here. Me and the guys are getting back into frostgrave.
I love Frostgrave. I have all of the books and supplements for Frostgrave, Frostgrave: Ghost Achipelago, and Rangers of Shadowdeep. The creator of these games, Joseph McCullough, is a great guy and is very engaged with the gaming community. Frostgrave is the game that got me into building terrain. I love that I have another use for all of those darn board game miniatures that I've painted over the years. Although not necessary to play, their plastic and metal models are quite good. Amazon and other distributors carry the books and some of the figures and accessories. For Europe, northstarfigures carries everything that exists for the game. For folks in USA, Brigadegames is the North American distributor for northstar. One thing about Frostgrave that we did have to houserule a bit is that you get a lot of XP quickly for killing off the opponent's wizard, apprentice, or crew. This means that wizards with offensive spells can wrack up XP faster than those that are more defensive or treasure focused. Great game though and there's a lot of content out there to explore.
With all of the campaign books there is a lot of additional "official" scenarios. We almost always play with 4 warbands, as we play as a family pretty much. We have also came up with our own scenarios.
My local meta had a campaign going on for a while but our game died out after one player took a huge lead on everyone else. Once he won about 3 games, he had racked up more XP than anyone else and used the treasure to hire elite minions. The XP went to getting more powerful spells and ranking up his Fight stat. Having a wizard with a really high fight stat makes them extremely difficult to hit with any sort of mundane attack. After only 3 weeks of games, he was level 17 and his closest rival was only level 10. We simply didn't stand a chance of beating him either on combat or scenario due to him using teleportation spells to close the gap if we tried to concentrate on objectives. This seems to happen with any sort of game I've seen that has character growth.
The game itself is very fun though. Magic and terrain rules make it something that can result in a lot of fun and crazy interactions.
+black magic craft. You asked for advice and questioned how the game is long term. The base game has replayability by changing wizard type. More importantly there's additional campaigns and supplements to offer totally different stuff. There's a deck of cards that adds personal/secret objectives that provide a whole new take on play - still based on treasure hunting but ADDS a twist for you (and your opponent, who's objective you don't know).
Glad to see you picking up Frostgrave. It's a great mini game. Especially for people who love D&D.
I would like to recommend the game Rangers in the Shadow Deep as well, it's from the same author - where he streamlined the rules even more. He also tackled the scheduling issue actually... by making it primarily single player! This makes it even more narrative driven, and I think, even more appealing to rollplayers. Note, you can still play multiplayer but it's actually co-operative that way. It's really neat. :)
This is great video! I'm really thinking about buying this now! Keep the great content coming!
I love Frostgrave. I also enjoy playing through the D&D board games occasionally. The legend of Drizzt, Castle Ravenloft, and a couple others. You also get about 40+ minis to paint with each game. The Legend of Drizzt actually comes with all the heroes as minis from the R.A. Salvatore books, Drizzt, Wulfgar, Regis, Cattie Bree, and Bruenor. I say I enjoy playing through the games occasionally, and I of course do, but I purchased them for the minis.
Well, I kept watching your Frostgrave videos, and I got hooked on the idea of playing. Seeing it in action, it sort of reminded me of an old favorite of mine, Mordhiem. And honestly I think some of the figures I had for Mordhiem would probably work well here. But the point is, I bought a Frostgrave lot on Ebay tonight. Ran away with 6 of the books and a pile of minis for $56.03 shipped. So, I'll soon be trying to convert friends so I can play. I blame this on you! LOL!
I have just bought the main book and the solo supplement. I'm looking forward to my first game soon.
Uuuuu, you´re gonna love Rangers of Shadow deep then! It´s McCulloughs newest game and it has a lot of similiarities with Frostgrave, but it is set in a depp haunted forest rather than a frozen city. It plays really fast and easy, the warbands are smaller, and I find it has an even more pronaunced RPG feel to it.
This is the highlight reel for Frostgrave... The universal mini use was what pulled me in as well...
i played this a fair bit some years ago. in the campaigns i was well ahead of my opponent in capturing treasures/objectives, my group was built to do this (aim of the game). my opponents group was built to kill, he kept killing more of my group each encounter.
So as i was technically winning the campaign i was constantly spending resources to replace lost characters and my group got weaker as my opponent got stronger.
To us it seemed broken and the more we played the more this seemed the case, seeing as the game's purpose is getting treasures.
Osprey makes many many skirmish mini games on the cheap. Try Draculas America, and then show us your vision of a Wild West build/town.
I really want to play Frostgrave, I think the setting and mechanics look like a lot of fun. There are some really interesting looking supplements too. The thing I want to do more is just spend time making a personalised warband for fun.
I've had the core book for quite a while but haven't been able to drum up much enthusiasm among my friends to give it a go. But... a lot of them are now becoming quite disillusioned with Games Workshop games and trying to keep their armies updated and current... So who knows, I might be able to convince them yet.
That is something I have to buy! I was talking with my wife, and we agreed to try this out. And the price... Great! Thanks for the best review so far (my opinion) :-D
Its a great game, glad you are enjoying it. We found it can get a bit wonky if one wizard gets much more powerful than the others, but if you have multi-player games the rest tend to gang up, balancing the game.
Multiplayer is fun too, but seems to run slower.
If you like the mechanics of Frostgrave, here's another endorsement for Rangers of Shadowdeep. You can use the same minis and terrain for both, but it opens you up to solo and co-op play. Joseph McCullough wrote both games. So cool to see you dabble in wargames and give an honest assessment. Thanks!!
Been playing since a couple years, it's a neat game that you can tailor to whatever you prefer. Check out the campaign/mission booklets, they have cool stuff other than scenarios.
Oh, and build some custom treasure, objective and spell (runes!) markers, you'll need them.
Wow nice! May give this a try. Is there a futuristic version of the same too? I love fantasy and futuristic is equal doses 😁 also love an excuse to build more terrain!!!
I recently got the book after watching many videos of people playing frostgrave. Now just to find time and people who can play. I have plenty of minis and terrain!
Frostgrave is my second favorite game, right after Warhammer Age of Sigmar. There are a lot of supplements for Frostgrave and some cool cards both for the spells and to add variety to the scenarios once you've played through them a few times. Can't wait to see what you think about Kill Team I'm getting ready to play that too.
I've just started Frostgrave with my daughter and friends, and it's AWESOME!
Also, there is another game in the "Frostgrave" series. Called Ghost Archepeligo (wrong spelling I know). The scenarios cross right over as do the monsters.
I bought the rules on your recommendation. Thanks Jeremy!
Love Frostgrave. If you focus on scenario centered games you will never run out of fun. Also fun with four players or three with a third controlling the denizens. I highly reccomend the ulterior motives expansion.
Just putting this out there, I would love to see some game play of this if you'd be able to.
Great review dude
