Latari Elves Shipping Now!

By Hepitude, in Runewars Miniatures Game

It's happening! Also, the Runewars core set is "On the Boat."

Also... does anyone else like to think that "On the Boat" refers to just one mighty vessel out on the ocean that was designed specifically to handle all of FFG's shipping?

Lol! Pallets of boardgames don't take up that much space in the grand scheme of things!

I am excited about the elves even though I shouldn't be since I don't plan on playing them! But they definitely look cool!

So would this be in stores next week?

Joy!!! Can't wait for elves, my battle cats will destroy all comers!!!!

Street date I assume is the 17th!

Usually two weeks I think? Definitely means GenCon I believe?

My goal to have my daqan painted before elves dropped, comically failed (not even half way there).

40 spear, 4 golem, 10 horse to go...

I'm thinking the week prior to GenCon, as in next week.

Nice little surprise, that's for sure!

That's a lot of spearmen, ****. How big is your army?

They will be on US Store shelves August 10th.

EDIT

Assuming past patterns hold true.

4 cores? Oh my goodness... I thought I was doing good painting one core!

Hopefully they do an army painter guide for elves too

I need green spray, and lots of browns.

at least one battle cat will be black.

Should I paint one calico? Haha

Since Easter!

Now to see if I can avoid the temptation of buying the elves or if I just go ahead and pull the trigger once they're released. Pretty exciting either way!

I shall be painting Ice elves. Attempting an entirely analogous scheme. All blues and greys. It shall be... Different. I generally work complimentary schemes so it will be a challenge.

Is anyone going to paint their elves to match their Daqan scheme? For Kari's conscripted elf friends?

My elves are likely going to switch the Latari green for a warmer orange. I want my elves to seem 'autumn-y'. The green is fine, but it seems no fun to have my units look exactly like the official art.

Awesome news! I'm almost done painting Humans and Undead. I will be done this weekend ... Bring on the Elves x 2!

That would mean buying a whole lot more elves just for conscription, maybe later :D

Ha ... well, if it is any consolation, your painting results are probably much better than mine. :P

Although I appreciate the compliment, still jealous you are done :D

Street date is 8/17, according to our distributor. Same with the essentials set.

I gotta get my butt back in gear and finish my waiqar (16 trays of reanimates later...). Then it's Dark elf time!
