View Full Version : Why Should I play Dark Age?

Ok, besides the fact that it aint GW, why should I play this game? What makes it better than any other? Basically, I'm lookin for you guys to sell me on it.

How do the rules work? Are they very intuitive, or will I constantly be looking things up?

How expensive is it? How many figures will I need (by need, I mean enough to play and not have to field the same army every time)?

How cool is the fluff? Is it the kind of stuff that I would want to read regardless of playing the game, or am I gonna have to force myself through it so that I understand what is going on?


I play a couple of games already. I have some space marines (so what if they're made by the evil folks at GW, space marines are cool). I also have a reptus army for warlord (skirmish game by reaper miniatures). As far as experience with this game goes, I played a Demo at a con a while back, and the friendly fellow game me a Banger. I painted him in a pretty blue color, and have been pondering how cool he looks for a while. Besides the fact that I think my banger looks cool, why should I start playing Dark Ages?

forgive me if I put this thread in the wrong area, or there are already 47-million other ones like it.

Well it is cool in that it requires a very small buyin

additionally it has one of the more unique (imho) miniature lines availible

ruleswise its pretty tight and balanced plus who doesnt like it when your low rolls actually become a good thing (great for those like me) and action points are always cool in a ruleset

Wayne Rogers

Well, Profane really summed it up from the rear point of view! :twisted:

I'll quickly give you my take on this game.

1. The minis are *kick-ass*!

2. The back story is cool post-apocalyptic sci-fi. Yes I did spend time reading the fluff in the book because I got engrossed in the story.

3. The game is small-scale skirmish level. You dont need an army of 70+ figs to get your 1850 points or so. You need about a dozen or two minis to have a force with some variety. The army list is fairly flexible..it doesnt rigidly force you to have an HQ leader if you dont want to. The small scale gives you more interest in the characters on the battlefield rather than generic soldier pawns. It seems to be scalable-up, if you want to you can play bigger games

4. The forces play differently. There are unique feel to each faction.

5. The game is more dynamic. Alternating turn sequence is way better than "I move my whole army...then you move your whole army". Can you imagine playing chess if you moved a whole side at a time? This game is way more logical and realistic in its tactical options. Thge held actions also allow you to prepare and anticipate being attacked so you can DO something about it rather than just sit there.

6. Its D20! Personally, I think D6's are way too limiting for a game system.

7. Its fun! Thats right folks! This game doesnt suck! Its engaging, interesting, and easy to learn, while still retaining enough complexity.

8. The rulebook is well-done. I was impressed with how the rulebook was put together. Reaper Warlord's rulebook was a terrible dissappointment for me.

9. The Dark Age staff here are way cool. They dont come across as arrogant lords looking down their nose at you.

10. The game line is in Distribution channels..I believe Alliance. This is important because it can easily be carried by local gamestores, or special ordered by them. And if they see interest in DA Im sure they will want to keep it in stock. I have a few game stores here in the SF Bay area that I know I can walk in and buy DA material off the shelf. Or you can buy directly from DA website. And the figs are not outrageously overpriced.

Hope that helps in your decision!

Reaper Warlord's rulebook was a terrible dissappointment for me.

As much as I love warlord (And I really do, I have about 3 times as many painted figures as I can normally field in a game) the rulebook is a bummer. Very poorly organized. Good to hear that DA doesn't have that problem.

keep them positive things comin.

hey mooseyjoe!

well i got a few reasons, profane's being the best. you will see the best mini ass/booty/butt :D

also, the game system is highly dymanic, allowing you and your partner to both be constantly active. instead of the i move shoot assualt then you move shoot and assault, dark age employs alternate activation

it breaks down like this, each unit( individual) or squad ( multiple individuals) has a certain number of action points. these ap ( no the ap you're used to) can be spent to move/shoot/assault/cast foci/ and do all sorts of other actions. these can be spent in ANY order, so none of that crazzy mumbo jumbo gw sequencial stuff. if you have 4 ap, you can move twice, shoot, then move behind cover. or do anything else. now certain guns do have rates of fire, so you couldnt unload 4 times with those 4 ap, but some guns dont...so it depends on the unit. but the comboos are limitless.

basically, when you start, you and your opponent roll for initiative, the winner( bieng the one who rolled the LOWEST) activates a unit or squad and spends all their activation points doing stuff. then your opponent goes. a new round starts when both you and your opponenet have activated everything. then you go back to the initiatve roll

now, heres something thatll really throw you. dark age loves all its armies. and at the same time, loves the consumer. the products you will buy from them ( both minis and rules) are the highest quality, i swear over my genesis rulebook and dragyri army sitting in front of me


the last bit of sales pitch i can give you is what won over me. the models. they models are cheap, and freaking awsome!

your average game is about 500-750 thatll get you a nice selection. now im just starting out, so i havnt passed the 350 mark, but already it is loads of fun. its a skirmish game, so you wont have vast armies, but some armies will have more than others. forsaken often have less, but are tough, and their saints are bloody killing machines. dragyri, will have a little more because of their slaves
honest to god, i have gotten into dark age for undrr 100 bucks

rulebook 25
15 slaves 30
deaths device 10
blizzard 13
soul searcher 10

now i need another blizzard, but that right there is 88 bucks, check my math and im already well immeresed into it, and i have majority of my force, just a few more odds and ends to boost it to 500.

now, if that isnt enough for you. Dark age is priced, well, off of how much metal and supplies went into making the model, so no more of the gw cost being based of game effectiveness

and BROM has to be the raddest artist around!

hope ive done something to conve you, if not, im sure a few more people can 8)

One very good reason to play darkage could be found in the publication following exodus!!!
Exodus is the forcelist for the Skarrd tribe and Saint Marys forces BTW.
Exodus might even light your imagination, I did for me anyway, and I'm a brood player.

The background story for the game is very european middleages, with spacetechnology thrown in, at least for the human factions, and I have read through it many many times now. The fan fiction section of this forum is actually quite good too, so I would advice you to check it out.

The activation system itself gives you a whole array of tactical possibilities, and you can actually apply various real-life strategies when gaming. Something that many other games lack in various degrees. The point in activating an entire army at a time is hard to defend on my behalf. The IGOUGO system is part of the reason why I don't want to start a warmachine army at the moment. It's rigid, and gets boring once the armies get large enough.
Activating a single model at a time lends itself very close to realism, but its hard to get some functional tactics going, because you can only hope to get two or more models working together at a time before your enemy can effectively ruin your plans. This might be the most realistic way of doing things, and I've even started Urban War for its small scale mechanics, but Darkage hits the better compromise between full scale cooperation and constant reactions. It can get tiresome only moving a single model, roll a dice and fail, and pass the turn to your opponent, as UW can do sometimes, but i'd take fast turns, and no results over 15 min turns ANY day!!!

And I bet you get surprised over the size of some of the models. I've just dug out an OLD orlock necromunda ganger, and a stonetroll, then put a Brood Grist model in between. There are very few size comparison shots with Darkage models out there and it's a real shame, but this is how big most of the brood models are!

http://i27.photobucket.com/albums/c200/Stunke/Telefon040.jpg

Personally I don't think I can chime in with a lot more to say about darkage, that hasn't already been said, but I have been away from wargaming for some 7 years, since I got tired of it all, but darkage was good enough to get me started again. I even developed an interest in painting and modelling because of the inspiring models, so all I can say is: Try it out with a few proxied models, then succumb to the darkside as the rest of us. :wink:

I think that Wayne summed it up pretty well. In my opinion the key points are:

(1) It is a good rule system. The current published rules are based on years of play testing. The use of alternate activation keeps both players involved in the game and has a more realistic "feel". Bottom line, it is a fun game to play.

(2) Relatively speaking, it is not an expensive game. For $75 you can get the following:

* rulebook: $25
* St. Mark Warband: $25
* Bane Warband: $25

which gives you a four-squad, 637-point force. That is enough to get you started. Throw in another $27 for a Strike Warband and you are now at five units and 1062 points. Or add individual characters (at about $7 a pop). You could also buy blister packs to add to your Banes, Coils, and Strikes in order to break them up into more squads (i.e., buy two additional blisters of Banes and then divide them into two 5-model squads.

mooseyjoe
04-03-2006, 02:02 PM
all right, so I did some bouncing around the store, site, and forum.

I think I like St. John. He has a big hammer, and his warband includes alot of angry fellows with beating utensils. This would imply that he and his boys are a run down the field and smack the enemy type army. That is exactly how I like to play, get into melee and hit something, none of this sniping from afar business.

Am I guessing correctly about St. John? How would I best use the models in his boxed set? In a smaller game, (i'm guessing 500 points or so is small) how well do big boys like saints hold up?


Here is what I am looking at getting, since I already have twenty bucks off anyway :D .

Forsaken St. John warband
Nathaniel and Orchid (they look cool, and are all spiky like the strikes)
Strike warband or a blister of strikes and then that leader model

Would this, in adddition to the banger I already have, be enouogh to get me started? Would I need more shooty types? Any fluffy reason why I shouldn't play forsaken, like maybe they're all incestuos weakilings and the least cool of the factions? How tactically sound is an army composed of a saint, those dudes with clubs, strikes, and a banger and a pair of haniels for ranged support?

maveric7717
04-03-2006, 02:20 PM
The Saint John warband is a very good buy because you get 4 banes which are the guys with the beating sticks. They are a very decent starting squad and the 2 haniels you get with have a gun that will frustrate your enemy to no ends when it goes through 3 or 4 of thir models. One warning about the strikes is that they are great models and all but cost a lot point wise. If you are against dragyri then you will be screwed. You will be outnumbered in most games against them but with strikes costing so much points then you will be outnumbered by a massive amount. My sample list of 350 looked like this
Saint John 130
Banger 76
Strike leader 75
Strike 70
total: 351

I am playing 4 models against 18 i think shane can post his list if he wants.
They are great for expanding your base core troops of banes and coils
I would serious suggest a coil warband and maybe a leader for your banes so you can have indivdual squads. I havnt played with nathaniel or orchid so i cant give you any info about them.
Good luck and Welcome to Dark age

04-03-2006, 02:24 PM
Banes, strikes and Saint John sure are an a$$ kicking bunch!
Whether you would want more firepower will depend on three things. Your opponents forces, the way he(or she) likes to play his factions, and how much support you would like you men to have when charging in.
The Book with Saint Johns (and the brood) stats and forces is still some time away since both Exodus and the project were currently on, has to be released, before the third forcelist comes out.

You can download the quickstart from the mainpage though.

BTW. If you like those thundering straight out of hell OMG !!!!!1111oNE!!!!!1111-charges, I'd say go for the brood. Not that the forsaken can't whoop some behind, the Dragyri ain't shy of tearing someone a new ear either, and the skarrd have some of the biggest Close Combat baddies around, you just get the acid blood and regenerating units with the brood... and Mean Jelly Bean!!!

:twisted:

edit: On a side note. Characters aren't all that necessary. If you would rather have even more suckas swamping your enemys defensive line, this is as viable a tactic, as anything else. Saint John in a 350 army is... a gamble at best. Hell tear ears all around... or be turned into mush under a stampede of slaves, personally I prefer characters in 500+ preferably 750+ games.
But with his command ability (read and understand... important importante, sehr wichtig, vigtigt!!!) he can direct his entire army in a single activation, TRULY making a charge from hell.
Again, it's all up to playing style, and I have yet to hear of a combination of troops that gets trounced everytime, unless you roll all 19 and 20's.

Wayne Rogers
04-03-2006, 02:48 PM
Hey Moosey,

The Saint factions all have certain exclusive units. Not too many, just a few.
Yes St John has a big maul, but he also has a ranged weapon too. Johns special units are ranged attackers....Bangers and Haniels. The Banes in the St John boxset are generic HTH troops usable for any saint. (Banes are really good btw ;-)

St Mark has specail units too. These are mostly female streetpunks turned fightters. The Reavers and Shades are sneaky infiltrating assasins. The Junkers are get-in-there-and-smash-with-a-big-mace.

Sta Mary's specials are the female Clergy Ann (of the mini-butt fame). and the Chaplain/priest Contradiction.

For a truly brutal HTH force that sneers at the thought of ranged combat...the Dragyri are the way to go. They are HUGE honor-bound warriors who use peon slaves to soften up the enemy and see who is worthy for them to personally fight. The Castes have different focus and psychic powers. The Ice Caste is in Genesis. Next book with Dragyri in it will have Air Caste, which feature lots of female dragyri.

Im mostly a Forsaken player..collecting Sts Mark and John. But I'll be honest and admit I will probably get just about everything.

SpawnovChaos
04-03-2006, 04:48 PM
wayne, you finally gave into what im suffering!!

i have no doubt in my mind i will buy every faction, its just my heretical wallet telling me otherwise

if you really want combat machines, id suggest my army of choice, dragyri. the trueborn stand taller than a dreadnought, and pack as much punch. the are tall killing machines with an honor code of the most elegant warrior. they are no savages! however, a dragyri trueborn is very picky about who he fights, i mean, hes not going to fight any puny ol thing. he needs something that is a challenge! so as wayne mentioned, the trueborns hurl slaves at you, and if yoi survive, then you are worthy to fight the trueborn.

also, dragyri have damn fine models

my 375 list is thus

frostbite ( big guy with the axe)

deaths device ( big guy with the coolest sword ever made)

soul searcher

15 spear slaves

you are required to have a 3:1 slave/trueborn ratio, but i found my 5 to one deals some nice damage. especially when i took out wayne's saint mark, though in his defense.....i had what was it wayne? like 10 slaves and my frostbite in theree?

as you can see, with dragyri youll get the monsterous power you're used to in space marines, yet will also have a few smaller guys to chuck around. think way way way back in 40k history when ig used to be space marine allies, and thats how it is.....except with way nicer rules and models

yup, I keep looking at that St. John in the box set, and can't get how cool looking he is out of my mind.

I looked at the dragyri, and while they are certainly more my style tacticaly, I just like the way some of those forsaken look.

I think I'll get the St. John Box, and once it's painted up and I have played a few games, I'll expand a bit. Maybe some coils, or a few strikes.

Just so you (i.e. mooseyjoe, not Pr0fane) know, Saint Mark is th only Saint with all his special troops either currently released or soon-to-be. St. John will get at least one more type of unit when Evolution (a forcebook for St. John and the Brood) is released.

BTW, that hammer is very nasty, as long as it doesn't malfunction.

Also, not sure if anyone mentioned (so much to read) but weapons can malfunction in Dark Age. Plasma guns overheat, unstable crystals explode, and chainsaws fall apart sending shrapnel flying all over.

I'd like to expand on the background info as well. Lots of gaming companies have very good background stories, but I feel Dark Age does a truly superb job with it. While the history in the Genesis book is somewhat brief, it does a very good job of plopping you right down in the world. When I play GW or Confrontation, I never quite feel like I'm in the game since the rulebooks don't provide a very realistic sense of what the battles are like. Dark Age does.

If you still have any doubts about the game, then let me say this. Pretty much every game has one or more flaws, but I feel, after having simply read the rules, that Dark Age has some of the most refined and focussed ones around. It's not just another game, but one that builds off gaming history to create something superior, rather than simply different. Now if only they'd break the dam holding up their tidal wave of new releases... :roll:

chainsaws fall apart sending shrapnel flying all over.

Um... Nobody in Dark Age has chainsaws. At least not that we've heard of.
Be cool though wouldn't it? And it would be in keeping. Yeah, why don't we have chainsaws damn it?


While the history in the Genesis book is somewhat brief, it does a very good job of plopping you right down in the world.

I agree that the history does a great job of putting you in the world. But brief? I just went through Genesis and there's 36 pages of history (thinking about it that comes across very sad and nerdy, as well as a little catty, but we'll let that slide). And that's without character histories. Maybe its because I've never read any other game's rulebooks but that seems like an awful lot to me.
And its all good

Hey i can speak from experience now that Saint John is a beast. I played my first game using the 2 strikes a banger and Saint john and let me say that saint john was the only reason i was able to do great in the game. the strikes also performed heriocly well. They were able to carve there way through slaves like a knife through butter. well until they got to a deaths device and got put down because he charged with a few other models. Then there is saint john. all i can say is that he would not die. For about 5 to 7 turns he was in cc with 2 buzz baldes and for a while had a mutros hittin him a couple turns. survived that all with 1 wound and managed once the mutros was far enough away to power his hammer and kill both buzzblades in one turn. well that is how saint john proved himself worthy.

Will

(banger was kinda useless in this game. stupid brood regen.)

Vaxillus
04-04-2006, 03:14 AM
The Banger was useless? I would figure with his potential 8 (or is that 6?) shots a turn he'd do some damage.

mooseyjoe
04-04-2006, 03:36 AM
eight shots a turn.

so upon studying this stuff some more I have begun to see what my strategy should be. Hang back with my whole force, let the banger stand still and splatter little guys everywhere, and use haniels like snipers, and try to take advantage of their pierce ability (whatever it is that pierce actually does, I haven't found this ability's description yet). St. John should use that shield of his and fire off his disc thingy. Once the enemy gets within closing distance, St. John uses command and takes his banes (however many I have) to close the gap first and hopefully pick the initial melee fights on my terms. That way I can take John plus a few of his pals and gang up on mean things like jellybean. The guys with guns would fall back continue their shooting, trying to keep the little guys from messing up my nice little fight with the enemy leaders.. With that big old hammer I should be able to smash some heretics/demons, and with the luck of the dice this strategy could get me a win.

any holes in my plan? I don't know how many points I will have, but I was just trying to figure out what I could do with the John box and my Banger.

How many points worth of stuff is in that St. John Box that I ordered?

You guys got no idea how pumped I am about getting these minis in the mail. Little pewter people haven't gotten me this excited in a loooong time.

the thumbnail should get bigger if you click it. And sorry for the crummy pic, but I'm tired.

Edit: Man, I clicked that link and the pic is HUUUUUUUGE. I held the mini next to the screen, it isn't as tall as the pic's head. I know he looks bad when he's that big, but I promise he is at least decent if you back up far enough for him to be mini sized.

Looks good always nice to see another St. John player (cant wait for Evolution as I love both John and the Brood)
the St John set comes in at 395 if you use the bane leader as such in the box set

471 plus a banger

mooseyjoe
04-04-2006, 04:16 AM
ooh, what could I use to soak up that last 29 points? Sounds like I got the starts of a passable 500 pointer.

DA_Magpie
04-04-2006, 09:04 AM
Well looks like you've got the fanatical over-excitement down pat. You should fit in just fine around here! :P

That banger looks pretty good by the way, although for some reason I keep getting images of him stomping a metropolis somewhere. Must be the size... :wink:

Unfortunately there's nothing available to St John right now that costs less than 29 points. If I were you I'd just play 475 point games until I had enough minis together to chop and change a 500 point (or bigger) list together.

I have seen a fed-ex truck, a fed-ex van, and a ups truck on my street today. AND NONE OF EM BROUGHT ME A BOX :evil: :evil: . When are those silly mail men gonna bring me my little metal people? hmmmmmm? I'm gonna take one hostage until the pasckage gets here. We'll see if that speeds the mail up :twisted: .

Apparently there's no such thing as bad publicity but I've got to wonder...

Of course if it works let us know. We'll all be trying it. :wink:

the more you anticipate the arrival, the longer they keep it.. just go to the store and it will be on the porch when you return..

I got home today and saw a package on the stoop. Then I went YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAy!!!!!!! my stuff is here.


unfortunately, the box wasn't for me :( . But my mailman trap is done, now I just need a truck to drive through the snare. :twisted:



edit: I checked that shipping report, and it says it shipped yesterday. They'll be here any day now. :D

i find bear traps the most effective to stoping large objects since you can always have more than one bear trap. :twisted:

(claymores are also very effective but military supply stores rarely have them but i have heard of stories.) :poker:

okay what we discussing? :wink:

That's like the cookie that someone took a bite out of, didn't like, and then decided to give to some poor shmuck as a 'reward.' :lol:

I was looking around the site, I got hungry, I thought if I just took a bite and put it back nobody would notice. If I'd known Pr0 was going to give it away... :roll:
