Monster Fight Club The Witcher Miniatures Bundle: Characters 1, Ogryds 2, and Ogryds 3 (3 Items)

Product Information

In The Witcher: Old World, you become a witcher – a professional monster slayer – and immerse yourself in the legendary universe of The Witcher franchise. In this competitive adventure board game, 2-5 players travel across a vast map, embarking on masterfully penned quests, encountering and making ambiguous moral choices, fighting monsters – and sometimes brawling with other witchers to defend their school's honor! Leading the way is the first character set that contains three particularly iconic characters. You have Geralt Of Rivia, Yennefer and Dandelion. All of these miniatures that you're going to be seeing here are in plastic and come in around that 28/32mm scale. So, they should line up well with lots of other ranges.

The aim of The Witcher: Old World is to be the first player to collect 4 trophies, and trophies can be won in 3 different ways, either by defeating monsters or other Witchers or by reaching level 5 of an attribute. Raising attributes is done at Witcher school locations, where players need to pay to raise them and to do that, they'll need to explore and defeat monsters to gain gold. Our unpainted pewter fantasy miniatures are in the newer heroic 28mm gaming scale which has become the industry standard over the past 22 years. Our first four fantasy miniature lines are based on the iconic fantasy artwork of Larry Elmore , Keith Parkinson (RIP), Clyde Caldwell & Jeff Easley. All four artists have been gaming industry icons for the past 42 years now and their artwork needs no introduction. The Witcher: Old World contains a significant number of components, the majority of which are high quality, like the dual-layer player boards! The game board is large and beautifully illustrated, depicting the dark and gritty world of The Witcher, as a map to explore, with additional sections for the various cards needed to play the game. This wonderful art extends to the action and monster cards that are at the core of the game play.

What Is The Witcher: Old World?

In addition, Dark Sword Miniatures is also producing premium pewter miniatures and other miniature related products based on the epic A Song of Ice and Fire fantasy book series of the New York Times best selling author George R.R. Martin. And finally, we have added a couple wonderful fantasy artists by the names of Stephanie Law and Tony DiTerlizzi into the mix for new premium miniatures lines based on their artwork as well.

The artwork and graphic design deserve praise for capturing the dark and gritty atmosphere of The Witcher. The illustrations on the cards and the game board are evocative, making players feel like they are part of the Continent’s treacherous world. I really liked the [often] gory illustrations on the action cards, they add extra depth to a great combo! Final Verdict The last of the sets turns things into a little bit of a boss encounter. You have two Ghouls and then the Grave Hag that you could use as the focal point of a scenario.The first player to acquire 4-6 trophies, with the number being set at the start of play, wins the game instantly. You can obtain trophies by killing monsters, instigating and winning chaotic tavern brawls against another witcher, training attributes to their highest level, and resolving certain quests throughout their adventure. Monster Fight Club has now put together their first crop of miniatures for you to use with your Witcher-based tabletop adventures. You could use these for the R.Talsorian roleplaying game or perhaps even a skirmish game or two if you want to give it a Witcher vibe! The difference between the Standard and Deluxe versions of The Witcher: Old World is the inclusion of 28 miniatures to replace the tokens in the standard edition. Both editions include miniatures for each Witcher school. The Witcher: Old World plays on a map with locations that fans of the franchise will find very familiar. What Are Our Final Thoughts On The Witcher Old World?

Charlottesville, VA – May 13, 2019 – Monster Fight Club, a close-knit team of hobby industry veterans intent on evolving the tabletop hobby through fun and unique boardgame experiences; innovative accessories, terrain and models for tabletop role-playing games and wargaming, today announced their licensing partnership with legendary worldsmith Michael Pondsmith and his publishing company R. Talsorian Games, to create a range of tabletop miniatures for Cyberpunk and The Witcher. The Witcher: Old World can be played solo, and it works well, but the sense of urgency isn't there, the same can be said of 2 player games, and I found that 3 or 4 players games had the ideal mix of competitive pace and game time. I had a blast with 5 players, but it did feel like a large time investment, so wouldn't be the regular way to play the game. There are 5 Witcher Schools to choose from in The Witcher: Old World. Can I Play Geralt In The Witcher: Old World?The deluxe includes monster miniatures for all the types featured and whilst not exactly needed they do add to the immersive experience and will certainly enhance table presence even unpainted. It is worth pointing out that the miniatures in this game are excellent. Both in terms of the sculpts and their detail. I especially liked the sculpted bases and dynamic poses of the various Witchers. Gameplay The first set contains three Drowners whilst the second introduces three Ghouls into the mix. I would love to use Rangers Of Shadow Deep for playing out some Witcher adventures with Geralt at the head. You could introduce these creatures in place of zombies and the like!

Monster Fight Club have done a solid job on their Cyberpunk range and I imagine we'll see the same concerning The Witcher. There are some great narrative elements in the quests, and while I would have liked to have seen this expanded more, it would have added to the run time and would be best experienced in solo play. There's a lot of replayability with the different schools, and even though most games play out roughly the same way, it's very enjoyable, but certainly not infinite unless you're a hardcore Witcher fan.
