Play with balanced rules, and use your entire miniature collection in WARSURGE- no need to worry about manufacturer, or age!
This game system is pretty wild because you make custom profiles for any model you have laying around the house. That means even if you and your friend have minis from different game systems, you can still play games against one another. And, even if you’re hanging out alone during the pandemic, you can use the rules to play solo missions.
You may be asking, how is it balanced? Well, the game is all about equality. So if you make some giant scary dudes, your opponent will be allowed to match points, with either a ton of little guys or their own giant stuff. You can also set up co-op missions with your buddies to take on hordes of enemies together.

Rules for Your Entire Miniature Collection in WARSURGE!
This is an interesting idea if nothing else. Because, let’s be honest, we all have plenty of random minis we haven’t used in some time. Maybe your army isn’t up to the new meta for the game you play and you just want to use a great-looking army but not get destroyed because you don’t chase the meta. Or, you’re just looking for something new to try without buying an entirely new collection, well with WARSURGE you can! Let’s look a little more about how it all works.
How it Works
The app has hundreds of premade profiles that you assign to certain minis and units, that all come with point costs. Or, you also have the ability to make your own custom profiles, but again, the app generates the points for the stats you give.
That means no super OP units or uneven games. Everything basically has a different cost, like movement, defense, attack, etc…
So if you want to speed around the table you will have to sacrifice something else. Both players make a roster to a preset amount of points and then you use the rules of the game to battle it out! You can also share your lists with custom QR codes, play as a team, or fly solo. Overall it’s an extremely interesting system, and to play all you need is right here!
