Title: Fallout Wargaming
Post by: Dessert Ranger on October 03, 2017, 04:37:08 PM
Hey Villagers,

I was wondering if anyone else heard about the upcoming Fallout themed Board game.

http://www.modiphius.com/fallout.html

It seems to mostly focus on the Fallout 4 stuff, but I read somewhere they plan on Adding Enclave so here's to hoping they add more in terms of stuff from older games (Enclave, NCR, Caesar's Legion, The Master's Army etc.)

Any thoughts on it? Do many people here play a lot of board games?

The Preorders came out today and the lowest starter pack is like $80.

It may not be a lot in terms of Wargaming but what the fuck...

I guess it's not as bad as Warhammer.... yet...

Was never much of a wargamer myself.

For some reason I remember there being an earlier FO board game, perhaps based on FO3, though I may be wrong.

I played miniatures board games as a teenager Mage Knights and Hero Clixs etc but they became an expensive hobby. I remember someone dropping $100 at once on a dozen packs of figures only to get nothing good. That was a lot of money as a 13 year old kid!

Always saw Warhammer as a more expensive elitist type of game.

I haven't tried that one, but recently bought Fallout: The Board Game.

I've only had time to play it a couple times so far, but I'm liking it. It remains to be seen whether it gets repetitive, but supposedly there should be enough variation to keep it interesting.

Oh, do reply when you've played it a few more times. I'm a huge board game geek, and I've been pondering adding this one to the list.
