The editing and camerawork in this video are absolutely superb. Watching your cinematography skills grow over the past few years has been a real treat, and it showcases why you are such a phenomenal painter and learner. Thanks for your hard work, I always enjoy the art you produce.
I have been wicked inspired by Demon Ship, I love that small form factor and efficient scope. I didn't know that there was a coop version but now that has me even more stoked for it!
Great video. Demon Ship in particular is really cool: we could do with a lot more short games, small games and single player games in the minis space. Not every good game has to be an ever-growing pile of miniatures, expansions and rules updates - sometimes one and done is plenty of fun.
Shatterpoint and MCP are the only two games I'm focusing on at all anymore. The models are so sick, the gameplay is fantastic, and the support from AMG is top notch.
MCP is so damn fun, with tons of room for personal choices and the game is extremely well balanced for the most part. I love that there are so few truly stinker models and even then, the delta between the worst and best models is really small. Just play your favs and have fun. Plus, who doesn't love the opportunity to have Hulk chuck a car at someone?
Happy to hear from someone's who's not a Star Wars board game fanatic that they enjoyed Shatterpoint. Most of my circles involve a TON of X-wing and Legion talk, so naturally there's a lot of bias. I appreciate you throwing your feedback into the ring, and this makes me feel a lot more confident in my plan to jump into Shatterpoint. So looking forward to painting the models, and hope to see some Shatterpoint content from you down the road!
I recently branched out from GW to other systems, Carnevale has been a real treat and now I’m really enthusiastic about Malifaux! Thanks for doing this highlight Scott, it’s great to hear people’s perspectives on what they like and what they don’t like about new games.
What the hell. I had never even heard of Black Site Studio before this. Just checked their page and now I want it all haha. So freaking cool. Demon ship looks absolutely brilliant.
Your play-through with Malev was awesome. Def drumming up support for DS/GB :). Loved the extra attention to design and editing in the vid. Great work!
Demon Ship looks like a hell of a lot of fun. The simpliciyt and small scale suggests so many possibilities. Co-op sounds fun, and the idea of maybe even making a sort of "mod" for it where your character is super vulnerable and there's just ONE monster, with no idea what room it might pop up in... Alien : isolation vibes.
My group is elbow deep in Frosthaven right, but as a guy old enough to grow up with the Aliens franchise and Doom games as a cornerstone of my youth, Demon ship looks so cool and unique I think it’s a must have.
Miniaturewise I could recommend "Mythic Battles: Ragnarök" from Monolith (planned to arrive in Q4). Its not a pure (gridless) table top but a board game skirmisher with premade maps. Its a successor of the "Mythic Battles: Pantheon" which is based on the Greek mythologiy and moves on to the vikings (the next (and final) iteration is supposed to be Egyptian). Very nice minis (and only the heros are "mini", monsters and gods and get quite big ;-).
I bought Yafsiga and demon ship as well I am so stoked for those games. I have the book and chalice Knights for Yafsiga and need to build another warband to get some friends into it as well
I have been a fan of Black Site Studios for a couple of years now. They have produced some amazing and zany models for some of their games. The Soviet Leaders and US President clone minis stand out as just awesome and clean, well sculpted, resin cast models. They also did a Rutger Hauer from Blade Runner proxy sculpt that is just a joy as well! I am pretty stoked to see Apex Legends coming as a boardgame KS. This is good content dude. The kind of stuff I like to see more of!
Demon Ship is a GREAT find! I obviously missed out on a lot from Adepticon, I did very few demos and saw almost none of these games. Will make a point to do more next year. Either way, always fun to see people excited. Personally Shatterpoint is a big maybe, but I do agree that it has a lot of great design cues. Right now I am finally getting into Malifaux, but I am much more open these days to wacky side games that I might just get into by myself as a psuedo board game. lol
"This is just Malifaux encounter generation" has been my reaction to a lot of games I've looked into lately. Yafsiga, Crisis Protocal, and even GW's change to encounter design with 9th along with the previous ITC design. Shows its a solid system at least. Now if only people would just play Malifaux.
You make succinctly explaining each game's rules look easy, I'm sure a load of effort went into it. Thank you for putting a great list of games on my radar!
Great recommendations! I'm gonna throw out there Rivenstone and Warmachine as recommendations as well. Privateer Press has adopted that same style for troop movement (move one model, place the others within 2") starting with their Warcaster: Neo-Mechanika game and continuing on in the new edition of Warmachine, MKIV. It's muuuch better and makes things a lot faster. Bonus, it enhances the power of AoE making those models scarier to infantry and on top of that makes abilities that let infantry spread out after their activation even more valuable (in Warmachine the ability is called "Reposition").
The games look fun, I really like the look of the aesthetics in that book for Yafsiga, it looks kinda trippy in an ethereal sorta way. Also, it's off topic but I was watching "Garth Marenghi's Dark Place" the other day and figured it may not be that well known across the pond, so if you've never watched it give it a look it's f%cking bat-shizzle in the best possible way.
So glad you covered these games! Demonship is exciting but very... Boutique. It's $100 to get everything you need to play right now, and that's just preorder pricing. I hope they offer the book with just the terrain at some point since pretty much everyone will have the necessary minis already to play.
Boutique is the word for sure - We're a super small company at Blacksite. That being said though - the Rulebook does come with dimensions, and a set of scannable / print and play components so that if you don't want to buy MDF, that is an option. TONS of custom Demon Ship builds out there.
Being in Australia shipping is $55 with the terrain, but I'd love to order but have my own minis for characters. Would you not consider a terrain/rulebook package?
Scott, releasing different sized minis for all the Star Wars games isn't a missed opportunity. It's by design. They know Star Wars fans will buy every version of every character over and over and over and over and over and over and over again.
Steel Rift by DeathRayDesigns and Ash Barker is my favorite newish game.. Fast fun mech combat with a light ruleset (this is not classic battletech).. Check it out
Actually Scott back in the day...Starfleet Battles started out as a Micro Game everything you needed was sold in a Ziplock bag and the playing area was about the same size as Demonship.
I am good with my current game line up. I got godtear, infinity and conquest/first blood. I get a decent ammount of MCP in as well, even though i own none of it. Lol. Good thing about being a commission painter your clients just let you play with their minis.
My only hangup right now with Shatterpoint is games seem to be taking 3 hours and that seems to be fairly common with everyone who's been trying to play since the rules drop.
I'm not in love with the moving camera in the talking head shots. It kind of loses the sense of a conversation between the presenter and the viewer. It would probably work a lot better in a two-person interview, or a more documentarian-style video, but I'd recommend just using the one shot, or only using the camera you're actively looking at. It's fantastic for the B-Roll though!
when i initially saw the apex game coming i was worried but it actually looks so sick and the models are so nice and look like they would be a blast tio paint also looks like the terrain is nice af and shatterpoint just looks... peak
Shatterpoint looks amazing, I like the character-focus of the game and allows me an excuse to paint Star Wars minis while not having to paint a whole army.
Wow all of those sound interesting. The struggle bar made its first appearance (in a simpler form) in Star Wars Rebellion a miniature heavy board game (150 minis). If you like how the different factions in ASOIAF work, try Rebellion. There are only 2 sides that are COMPLETELY different. Rebellion is usually rated as the #1 or #2 best two player game ever made.
Personally I'm only really waiting for cyberpunk red combat zone. I do wish there were way more minis, but I am sure there will be more down the road. But just the cyberpunk universe excites me the most
Re 42mm: Not a missed opportunity, it’s incompatibly by design. It ‘forces’ players of legion to buy new material to support the game. How you feel about this will be up to the individual. I like the larger scale, and I like skirmish games, so I appreciate it, but I can see how some people might feel bitter, given how this means a lot of terrain already purchased will not be to the same scale. It will be interesting if this succeeds in a fashion that Inquisitor failed at.
I’d heard of all these tangentially, but not I’m pumped for all of them! Demon Ship in particular sounds ideal since I live in my apartment. I could actually just sit at my computer desk and play a war game.
I think you may have sold me on Shatterpoint. I actually appreciate that you can't one-shot figures. One I'm hyped to get to the table is Judgement: Eternal Champions. Was always interested in the original so I jumped on the new edition.
I think the game Bushido: Risen Sun by GCT Studios would really turn your crank. It pulls all of the best elements of a game like Guild Ball and introduces new tactical decisions and scoring mechanics to push tension, interaction and order-of-activation significance to new heights. Highly recommend. Thanks for the detailed overview of these games! I am excited to try Shatterpoint and Demon Ship!
YAFSIGA is one of my favourite rulebooks ever, the aesthetics are so beautiful! Demonship looks super interesting gameplay wise and Malev is lovely. I've been playing Legion for a while, and I'll be honest, the art style of Shatterpoint put me off but your description of the scoring system really really interested me so I'm tempted to pick it up now :3
Great video, but I would recommend you drop the panning video when you’re speaking to the camera. It’s a bit distracting and your original format (you looking straight at the audience) at different zooms is a lot more natural. It’s better when you’re panning around models/books/game boards.
I recently started Star Wars Legion, so with limited time i dont need a new game at the moment. But shatterpoint looks awesome and you can tell it has a lot of similarities with legion.
All the games sound really cool. My only issue(s). Not sure if anyone else is dealing with these. 1) Demon Ship sounds most unique and interesting. $100 buy in is definitely something to give pause to. It may be worth it though. Especially since it can be played solo. 2) Most important by far. There are LOTS of interesting and awesome games out there. Question is, is anyone else you know playing them (or willing to invest in them)? More pointedly, do you have anyone else to play with...period? The issues noted in #2 are my biggest stumbling blocks.
Hey there! Seems like you are in to board games, too. Are there any videos of you guys playing board games? On your channel and on your twitch I couldn’t find any. I saw, that you were playing descent: legends of the dark. I am interested in seeing that specifically. Did you like it? Best regards and keep up your great work!
Can't wait for Shatterpoint! Legion is already my favourite game and near perfect game for my needs. Have no more interest and selling all my AoS (2 huge armies) and Infinity (3 armies). But Shatterpoint looks like it will be shorter than Legion and have a whole different set of strategic choices - which makes it the perfect skirmish fit with Legion...
Demonship looks amazing! I am looking forward to getting the Battletech Mercenary Kickstarter lol. Alpha strike aces (solo play) should be awesome when it releases hopefully within a year...
I'm excited for Warcry getting an honest to goodness starter set this year. That should really lower the barrier of entry and get people to... Actually play it. Same thing with the new releases for Warhammer Underworlds. Now that the nemesis format exists, a new starter set and the succeeding releases should be more friendly to new players.
Always happy to see content for stuff outside of James Workshop Question: Do you think a minis focused game built solely around 3d printing minis and terrain with PDF's for rules could work? Why/why not?
I have been following Blacksite since they released Don't Look Back. Honestly I am mad at myself for not snapping up their games sooner because they really seem to pour love into the designs. Demonship I think is my number one out of this, gotta love that all in one design. Shatterpoint hits that Star Wars love for me, but I never played more than one match of legion and never played MCP despite my collection.
I’m definitely excited about shatterpoint especially since I love crisis protocol so much it’s the only game I really have been abled to play or enjoy playing anymore that first game did sound fun since I’ve been interested in getting into don’t look back with my buddys if I can get them together so we can play games
I have to wonder if you got a look at any of Corvus Belli's upcoming offerings, like REM Racers, or Warcrow. And if so, what did you think of them? I imagine you likely didn't care for the app for Warcrow if you saw it. As someone who always ran the D&D games and never got to play though, I'm glad to have a default GM, myself.
On another note, your videos (the editing, quality, etc) and your overall demeanor, humor and energy are always so welcoming. The chemistry between you and Ninjon, for example, make me wish I could hang with you guys. Thanks so much for the positive, down to earth energy!
I will never financially recover from this video

9:43 Using your pulse as a kind of health bar reminds me of the old Fear Effect games on the PS1.
I recently branched out from GW to other systems, Carnevale has been a real treat and now I’m really enthusiastic about Malifaux!
Thanks for doing this highlight Scott, it’s great to hear people’s perspectives on what they like and what they don’t like about new games.
yes Malifaux!
Carnevale on a full board looks so cool.
I like that the first game company blacksite studios is in my hometown
What the hell. I had never even heard of Black Site Studio before this. Just checked their page and now I want it all haha. So freaking cool. Demon ship looks absolutely brilliant.
What! No mention of Ghost Boat?
Boast Goat 🐐
Stop trying to make “Fetch” work. 😏
Yafsiga, DemonShip, and you featured Sean Sutter in this video?! Well done Scott. This is epic.
It was a serious combo breaker for sure!
You sounding so hyped for Ghost Boat sold me on the game. Excited for the preorder and hoping the co op mode is fun too
This is SUCH an exciting time for games!
Your play-through with Malev was awesome. Def drumming up support for DS/GB :). Loved the extra attention to design and editing in the vid. Great work!

10:08 this earned my like lmao
New games. New minis. More fun all around. Thank you again Scott for helping to make me smile and my wallet cry. Keep up the good work.
At 9:54, how many takes did you do to roll a perfect 1-5 on 5 dice?!
One take!!

1:46 I’ve had a 2x2 foam bird sitting around for ages, but I have no game that I play that uses 2x2 boards. Now I know what I’m gonna do with it

I wish Warhammer had more consideration into solo scenarios for those times when friends are just too busy.
Interesting point about warcry scenario cards. That's actually one of the things I find great about warcry, the randomness. It's great fun!
I think the idea is fine. The execution, however, is often lacking and that's because it's hard to do, IMO. It's an idea setup for "failure"
I am good with my current game line up. I got godtear, infinity and conquest/first blood.

Hey Scott, have you heard of Argatoria? It's a 10mm scale game with some amazing sculpts that I think you'd dig
I'm not in love with the moving camera in the talking head shots. It kind of loses the sense of a conversation between the presenter and the viewer.

SAGA - Age of Caesar. I can't wait to field my pre-imperial Roman army against the Carthaginians.
Shatterpoint looks amazing, I like the character-focus of the game and allows me an excuse to paint Star Wars minis while not having to paint a whole army.
So hyped! Thank you my man for covering #demonship! It's an honor. I am really excited for all the same reasons you outlined!
Demonship is one that I really want to try but the cost is almost double with shipping and taxes to the UK. Hopefully we will get a UK distributor?
Blacksite Studios would be the ones to answer that question!
Wow all of those sound interesting. The struggle bar made its first appearance (in a simpler form) in Star Wars Rebellion a miniature heavy board game (150 minis). If you like how the different factions in ASOIAF work, try Rebellion. There are only 2 sides that are COMPLETELY different. Rebellion is usually rated as the #1 or #2 best two player game ever made.
I like the first game you explained looks good to me 👍
Personally I'm only really waiting for cyberpunk red combat zone. I do wish there were way more minis, but I am sure there will be more down the road. But just the cyberpunk universe excites me the most
That's an interesting video thanks, it's nice seeing all the variety of games of there
Just played "Don't Look Back" at game night. Game was an absolute Blast!
Also, like the use of a deck of playing cards for the randomization in a game.
Re 42mm: Not a missed opportunity, it’s incompatibly by design. It ‘forces’ players of legion to buy new material to support the game. How you feel about this will be up to the individual. I like the larger scale, and I like skirmish games, so I appreciate it, but I can see how some people might feel bitter, given how this means a lot of terrain already purchased will not be to the same scale. It will be interesting if this succeeds in a fashion that Inquisitor failed at.
I’d heard of all these tangentially, but not I’m pumped for all of them! Demon Ship in particular sounds ideal since I live in my apartment. I could actually just sit at my computer desk and play a war game.
What games were showcased between 12:50 - 13:20? Those looked pretty cool too.
in order: Descent: Legends in the Dark, Rising Sun, Black Rose Wars, Oathsworn
GHOSTBOAT
I think you may have sold me on Shatterpoint. I actually appreciate that you can't one-shot figures.
One I'm hyped to get to the table is Judgement: Eternal Champions. Was always interested in the original so I jumped on the new edition.
We talkin' 'bout Ghost Boat?
I think the game Bushido: Risen Sun by GCT Studios would really turn your crank. It pulls all of the best elements of a game like Guild Ball and introduces new tactical decisions and scoring mechanics to push tension, interaction and order-of-activation significance to new heights. Highly recommend.

Buy more miniiiissss!!!
I'm diving pretty hard into Forbidden Psalm and The Weald this year
Great video, but I would recommend you drop the panning video when you’re speaking to the camera. It’s a bit distracting and your original format (you looking straight at the audience) at different zooms is a lot more natural. It’s better when you’re panning around models/books/game boards.
I have been eyeballing Yafsiga and Demonship. I'm surprised you didn't mention Hamatsu also.
I recently started Star Wars Legion, so with limited time i dont need a new game at the moment. But shatterpoint looks awesome and you can tell it has a lot of similarities with legion.
Hey Scott, I am a huge fan of your channel back when you had 1k subscribers. So glad you are doing so well! Great content!
Thanks for another excellent video. Have you managed to have a look at moonstone the game - won best miniatures and gameplay at UKGE this year!
Think you got me exited for the star wars skirmish game. That sounds really interesting.

Best regards and keep up your great work!
Yeah, my group enjoyed it. Of all the "D&D in a box" type games, I enjoyed Oathsworn the most but Descent was a pretty close 2nd.
I'm sorely hype for Warmaster Revolution!
Aw man, what is that board game with the giant rats and hex grids at 13:15 ? It looks sick!
and 13:00 with the different rooms and giant monster in the middle? Thanks!
Oathsworn: into the deepwood is at 13:15. It's a pretty good game, great minis and a lot of the scenarios are very creative.

I know for a fact that it works because it already is! Check out One Page Rules.
@@Miniac oh hell yeah thanks for the recommendation
Love that demon ship aesthetic, but the shatterpoint rules look GREAT. Why did they have to use a different scale though?!
I have been following Blacksite since they released Don't Look Back. Honestly I am mad at myself for not snapping up their games sooner because they really seem to pour love into the designs. Demonship I think is my number one out of this, gotta love that all in one design. Shatterpoint hits that Star Wars love for me, but I never played more than one match of legion and never played MCP despite my collection.
What's the game shown at 12:56?
Tell us please.
I’m definitely excited about shatterpoint especially since I love crisis protocol so much it’s the only game I really have been abled to play or enjoy playing anymore that first game did sound fun since I’ve been interested in getting into don’t look back with my buddys if I can get them together so we can play games
I have to wonder if you got a look at any of Corvus Belli's upcoming offerings, like REM Racers, or Warcrow. And if so, what did you think of them? I imagine you likely didn't care for the app for Warcrow if you saw it. As someone who always ran the D&D games and never got to play though, I'm glad to have a default GM, myself.
Didn't get a chance to play those!
Marvel Crisis Protocol is fun as heck, my Sentinel's shall purge all you filthy mutants
Ghost boat looks very interesting. Looking forward to trying it.
Rivenstone is my game for this year!
keeping an eye on that one, does look quite promising.
Shatterpoint has weird unit cohesion rules
afaik, there aren't really cohesion rules at all
Dude thanks for shouting out Demon Ship! im so proud of Malev and cant wait to get my hands on the game!
Big love my man !!
On another note, your videos (the editing, quality, etc) and your overall demeanor, humor and energy are always so welcoming. The chemistry between you and Ninjon, for example, make me wish I could hang with you guys. Thanks so much for the positive, down to earth energy!
