JK. Looks pretty promising, might have to check this one out. drelbs Well-Known Member Jun 25, 2009 11,201 7 38 #3 drelbs, Mar 4, 2013 If you like turn-based strategy, this one is a no-brainer! iamseamonster Well-Known Member Mar 8, 2010 214 0 0 #4 iamseamonster, Mar 4, 2013 Looks cool, is the campaign multiplayer only? From the description it seems like single player is limited to quick battle and custom battle, is that the case? Regardless, I'm getting it.. undeadcow Well-Known Member Dec 4, 2010 9,486 2 36 Houston, TX #5 undeadcow, Mar 4, 2013 It is a shame to see this go free; I wish the developer would implement a more solid single player game and regret the developer lost so much of his time on the multiplayer update. Greyskull Well-Known Member Dec 13, 2009 5,587 1 38 Photographer/Social Sciences adjunct/sweet sweet l Fort Lauderdale #6 Greyskull, Mar 4, 2013 This has been on my wishlist for a long time; I held out specifically because I had heard the single-player campaign wasn't too fleshed out. oooooomonkey Well-Known Member Jan 15, 2011 6,307 0 0 Forge World #7 oooooomonkey, Mar 4, 2013 Even without a single player campaign mode this is easily my most played game on iOS , I bought it when it came out and then picked up both expansion packs, Grab this now!!! If you like gamesworkshop and stuff you should love this, the on screen dice rolls are a brilliant touch and the random spells keeps it fresh for more playtime.

Greyskull Well-Known Member Dec 13, 2009 5,587 1 38 Photographer/Social Sciences adjunct/sweet sweet l Fort Lauderdale #9 Greyskull, Mar 4, 2013 That really depends on the amount of each you have to spare... pjft Well-Known Member Feb 15, 2011 1,082 8 38 #10 pjft, Mar 5, 2013 This is a really good game, born out of one's passion to make a board game from the ground up. It is a very fun game altogether, and I would wholeheartedly recommend it - especially free. It's too bad it never really gained much traction - and, if I recall correctly, the push notifications are still sent via email, correct? Regardless, it's a very fun multiplayer game - single-player-wise, there is no real campaign to speak of, it's mostly a large tutorial, and then you can play custom battles, but that's it. Hope you enjoy it! (I'm not the developer, by any means, but I talked with him several times in the past about the game). (You must log in or sign up to post here.)
