The Warcaster: Collision Course Kickstarter has launched with new minis, vehicles, rules, and a brand new faction!
Warcaster: Neo-Mechanika is a fast-paced game based on a 35mm scale. Where the majority of games are heavily scenario-driven and is full of awesome future soldiers, awesome warjacks, and now vehicles! The armies are about 20-30 minis per side, so you don’t have to build a gigantic force to play. Also, the game is alternating activation, so if you’re tired of just rolling saves on your opponents turn, this is worth looking into. This is an add-on to their previous Kickstarter, if you missed the first one, it will be available in stores before too long! So no need to cry.
The new expansion is focused on vehicles zooming across the battlefield causing havoc. They are also adding a racing game mode, to determine who has the best vehicles on the planet! But vehicles aren’t the only thing coming. They are also adding The Empyreans, an alien race waiting to strike on the unsuspecting humans. Get your guns ready, these aliens are not messing around!
Warcaster: Collision Course Kickstarter is Live!
The new expansion brings a bunch of new units, Cyphers, and scenarios! If you haven’t played the game, here’s a little bit from them on how the game plays:
Warcaster: Neo-Mechanika is a high-speed hobby miniatures game for two players who each take on the role of a powerful Warcaster in command of a formidable battle force. Players assemble and customize a force of 20–30 models and fight a scenario-driven battle. Using dice and cards to control their mighty units and to cast epic Cyphers. The game is played using an alternating-activation turn sequence. With a round tracker that governs scoring opportunities and the duration of ongoing effects. Players take turns activating units one at a time and using their rack of Cyphers: reality-warping spells. That can be used to enhance their troops and warjacks or to devastate their opponent’s forces.
New Faction:
The Empyreans are an alien race that has been waiting for the perfect time to strike, well that time is now! If you’ve been looking for some fresh blood, you have to pick these up!
The Empyreans are the ancient Architects that connected the Thousand Worlds of Cyriss. Over countless millennia, they designed and crafted the Hyperuranion. A galaxy-spanning network of interdimensional conduits that allowed the faithful to unify the known universe. Rendering all in their path pure and immortal. Those who saw the truth abandoned their mortal existence and joined in the Great Work. A constellation of souls at the center of the galaxy. But the unenlightened were shown the folly of their flesh, and the Thousand Worlds were emptied of any who might disrupt the eternal rapture of the Empyreans.
New Vehicles:
These are entirely new classes of units. With the ability to add some serious speed to your army. All the minis will come with 80mm bases, multiple load-outs, and hero pilots. And the higher the pledges go, you’ll get even more free add-ons.
The expansion packs go from $80 all the way up to $450! Really just depends on how much stuff you want! Go check out the Kickstarter and see what you can get!
