I was wondering if there is an audience for a gears of war table top miniature wargame? Something similar to warhammer or warmachine/ hordes.
I personally not very good at them ( more specifically warmachine/ hordes ) but the social aspect of it is fun, and I love assembling and painting the miniatures. I’d love to have a miniature army of COG / Locust on display.
wow they are really trying to milk this series as much as possible. i shouldnt be surprised but i am.
anyway they did have a Gears of War board game before which is cool.
honestly id love a warhammer like gears with miniature figures and self made maps to fight on. but honestly i dont want to touch anything that coalition has their names on, at least with my money.
They got some big names ( guy who worked on magic card game) working on this, so I feel that it’s more than just a cash grab,
If they did make any future table top/ board game TC wouldn’t do anything other than consulting. They would contract it out to someone with a good track record.
There’s a board game for gears out ( from back in the g3 day) that seemed to a squad shooter game. It looked similar to gears tactics TBH.
It was hella pricey back in the day though, so never got round to owning or playing it.
If the local waterstones collapses due to all this virus junk, I’ll be sure to go nab the lone copy they have had for years.
Your Gnasher accidentally goes off behind the Drone Guard, but the sound is muffled by the deafening roar of a Corpser thrashing in its pen. With the Drone distracted and your presence remaining undetected, you successfully hook the bucket of giblets with the barrel of your gun and discreetly return to your squad back near the Bloodmount corral…
How come a franchise that expands is “Milking it to death?” I’d consider something like COD to be milking, where they release a game every year and make very little changes.
I for one, am loving that we’re getting more and more Gears content outside of the main games and comics/books.
And to @yeatersm about the OP, I very much would like that. I’ve made my own to be played with friends since I love the Space Marine/D&D tabletop games, an official one would be nice.
I’ve thought about trying to dig out the character models from the pc versions of the games and importing them into zbrush to tune them into printable models. My brother got a resin 3d printer and what he prints out is pretty amazing.
Maybe if I ever get some real time off ill look into it.
Anyone know how difficult it is to pull assets out of the games file directory?
