1920 universe series in particular


 i think this would be a great background for a DW like war-game universe
especially if they have naval

Dystopian Wars / WC Production of Old DW Models

What surprised me was the problem with the moulds.  For all Spartan problems quality and fresh products and responsive services were not among them.

General Discussion / Spartan business model
« on: November 03, 2016, 10:14:36 pm »
there has been a lot of grumbling about spartan, at least on line
1. hard to get on shelves
2. failed deliveries of announced items
3. introduction of new games at the expense of old
4. failure to maintain product lines, at least with DW, FsA, FsPf

while i understand at heart SG is a model companies making money from models rather than rules
but shouldn't this mean they maintain and update new rules for new models, as well as non-in-game reasons to buy models? like background books, novels, campaign, etc

IMO this is something GW did very well, provided you with all the reasons possible to buy new models: fluff, rules, cool; their problem was continuous price increase per standard model as well as with ever larger/more complex models
i am not starting a rumor but when i look at spartan's path, its future doesn't look too rosy for me
and using a kickstarter format to generate more funds to maintain a core product line, to me also seem shaky (and being cynical, allow then to be vague about new product availability with their announcement, yet "responsive" to surveyed fans comments)

like what i did with the other SG, specialist games, i am buying models i really like while they are still available

General Discussion / Crimson Worlds

I have started reading these books and they have been tremendously enjoyable.  They are scifi with a fair amount of land based combat, space based combat, and a little bit of why it maybe inevitable that any off-earth colony may seek independence (as the new world did from the old world/europe)

as a firestorm universe player, i find the Dindrenzi rebellion even more sympathetic now.
SG really should invest in having novels written in their universe.
