With Blood bowl out and Space Hulk coming out tomorrow, how are they for people with little prior experience? Are they worth it as actual games and not just discounted model sets?
Are they good for getting others into Warhammer?

Also I guess general specialist games thread. Anyone have news on Battlefleet Gothic?

>Space Hulk:
The game is nice, but gets a bit repetitive quickly and has little replay value after you finished all missions. Nostalgia glasses might be necessary for full enjoyment. Miniatures technically can be utilized for 40k army but are not exactly a good starting point (neither is Troop / basic unit type for their respective army). It might attract some people by the atmosphere of the setting though.

>Blood Bowl:
It's in similar vein and Mordheim and Necromunda - lot of fun but not exactly balanced. Lot of hobby potential customizing each and every single one of your guys. Best enjoyed as a campaign with group of 6+ people each playing different team where either nobody is a powergaming asshole or everyone is a powergaming asshole. Officially not canon / not connected with the main setting so models can't really be re-used unless you're playing them as "stand-in". But it's plenty good as its own thing.

Seems like I always get a reply from one helpful Anon. Thanks.

I was wondering the same thing about Silver Tower, is it any fun?

I've heard Silver Tower's mostly just a dungeon crawl on pretty baroque tiles. Having not played it though, can't say much

Anything on Betrayal at Calth or Burning of Prospero?
