I just found out, and wanted to pass on to anyone interested, that Reaper now has an old west miniatures game,
Cowboys and Gunslingers, which uses the miniatures from their Chronoscope line.

The game uses their Warlord fantasy rules, and Reaper has published a Cowboys and Gunslingers rule supplement with data cards, which can be downloaded free from the link above. This is particularly cool because I imagine that this means you could mix genres and have some Sixguns & Sorcery battles because, really, who hasn't always wanted to gun down orcs with a six-shooter?
I've been meaning to give Warlord a try because I'm becoming increasingly put-off by Games Workshop and I really like Reaper's Warlord miniatures line. Now that they seem to be producing more games using the same rule system, I've got even more incentive to try it out.
While I have no time to pick up a new game, the box set would be perfect for my "Old West" fantasy campaign,as Pathfinder has a gunslinger class.
ReplyDeleteGood find!

ReplyDeleteThat sounds very cool, Matt. Is it kind of a 'Dark Tower' style campaign?
