Fantasy Flashback – Battle Masters

Along with the Space Crusade, Battlemasters (from the makers of Hero Quest) was the  Milton Bradley’s attempt to mainstream tabletop gaming.  The miniatures we’re of course by Games Workshop/ Citadel Miniatures.

If you listen to the podcast you’ve probably heard how we used to buy multiple sets of this kit to make whole Fantasy armies, as the miniatures were pretty much the same.
Battle Masters did so well, it was published in several different countries as well under these fun and exciting names. 
Die Claymore Saga
Ridderstrijd
Seigneurs de guerre

A cult classic, I for one will cherish my memories of playing this game for hours.

Bio: Virginia restless, miniature painter & cat dad. He blames LEGOs for all this, as there was something about those little-colored blocks that started it all. Spikey Bits sprung from Rob staying motivated to hobby on his backlog of projects, while sharing his knowledge with others during the early blogging era.

LEGO maniac and scale model hobbyist in the 80s turned miniature wargamer and trading card player ever since. He’s played every edition of Warhammer 40k and Warhammer Fantasy (since 5th Edition), but Titans of all sizes will always be his favorite! It’s even rumored that his hobby vault rivals the Solemnance Galleries, containing rulebooks filled with lore from editions long past, ancient packs of black-bordered Magic Cards, and minatures made of pewter and resin.
