Bushido - Stuart - 05-06-2011 One of the Earlswood Wargamer chaps pointed me in the direction of Bushido, a skirmish game with an ancient/mythical Japanese theme launched at the UK Games Expo this weekend. From the overview on their website: Quote:Bushido is a game of savage battles, of cunning stratagems and last-ditch defences, and where debts of honour are paid in blood. In Bushido, the fate of the world hangs not on armies but on individual heroes, men and women of extraordinary capacity, attuned to the all-permeating life force known as Ki. This force is the very fabric of the universe, and those with the appropriate training or natural talent can tap into this energy source and gain seemingly superhuman powers. In the world of Bushido, the delicate tapestry of Ki – and thus the universe itself –is threatened by the forces of imbalance, and it is up to you to protect it – or help rip it apart. In a game of Bushido, nothing less than the universe itself is at stake. Are you ready for the challenge of the Way of the Warrior? Very early days but the models look excellent. Picked up a couple of faction starter sets at an introductory price at the expo: Temple of Ro-Kan and The Prefecture of Ryu. Quickstart rules are available for download from their website.

I'll bring the models we bought along to the meeting tonight if you like so you can have a closer look.

RE: Bushido - rachtheweevil - 06-06-2011 That'd be great, thanks RE: Bushido - Luke the Squig - 07-06-2011 Gonna get some of my Bushido stuff built up for next week (hopefully) so I can bring them along and show them off . RE: Bushido - Etched Oracle - 07-06-2011 Is there any sign of where we can purchase the starter boxes from yet? RE: Bushido - Luke the Squig - 07-06-2011 Have you checked out GCT studios' (the guys who made the game) website yet? As I think that they might have some release dates.

At the moment it looks like they can only be purchased from their own online store at http://shop.bushido-thegame.com/ RE: Bushido - Etched Oracle - 07-06-2011 Hm, I may consider picking up a Starter Set soon but I'd like to see some more of the models released first as the faction I like the sound of the most so far, The Savage Wave, only has one model I like (Zuba). The rules look interesting though and appear to only be a step or two away from those of Warmachine so picking them up shouldn't be a problem. |
