15mm AE Bounty

After seeing my buddy Joe D.'s 15mm AE Bounty game I decided I might plan some crews of my own in this scale.

I went through the Starport 3030 stuff I had done over the last year or so, and added in a few new additions to come up with two crews.

First, the Mercenaries:




Above you can see the Mercs as a group, seven strong. In AE Bounty, you build your crews off of a set template designated in the rules, which you can then tweak a bit here and there. This group consists of a Sergeant, 2 Old Guard, 1 Specialist, 2 Cutters, and 1 Heavy.




Above you can see a closer shot of the Sergeant (15mm.co.uk figure) and the Specialist (Blue Moon Ferreen). You have the option of trading weapons on some of your choices, so I swapped the Specialist's rifle for Shock Gloves, and I thought the Ferreen's power vambraces modeled this well.



Above is a closer shot of the Old Guard with rifles. Minis are GZG and RAFM.



The heavy (A Khurasan Garn) and two Cutters (RAFM and GZG). I think mixing aliens and normal humans in the crews gives the games a better flavor. AE Bounty's universe includes plenty of slick alien races.



Above is a "glamor shot" of the crew stalking forward into action.


The second crew is a two-man job, Bounty Hunters. Makes me think of that great scene with Toombs from Chronicles of Riddick...



Another Khurasan Garn and a GZG female make up this two-hunter crew!



Since I now have two crews together, I guess it's time to play a game. Hopefully I can get that accomplished soon. I may look into getting some of the slick WorldWorks paper terrain for some of the 2' x 2' boards I envision playing on.

More miniature goodness later this week, including a visit from the Super-Skrull!

AE-Bounty Hardcopy Arrives!

I got my AE Bounty rules book in the mail today and I am smitten! What an awesome little, full-color tome! A really nifty package. This rules set will become my new gold standard for sci-fi skirmish!

And the fine folks at Darkson threw in a free mini as well! I will paint him up this week!

AE Bounty Logician

Here's the last of my three preview AE Bounty figures snagged from Gen Con by Rico. I really like the paint results on this dynamic and very cool miniature. The limited colors I employed have given him a cohesive look. And how can you go wrong with purple and green?









Can't wait to see the rest of Darkson's AE Bounty miniature release line-up. Oh, and the rules, too, of course.
