Runewars Miniatures Game

This is my new favorite game! Runewars Miniature Game from Fantasy Flight Games is exactly what I would expect in a beginner miniature game.  The miniatures are easy to fit together and have one position they lock into. The plastic posts are a good fit and barely require glue.  I used Tester's Cement for Plastic.  My wife and I had the whole stater box assembled in 1.5 hours and were playing in 3 hours.  The rules were a little deep to wade through at first but after the first game, we had a decent understanding of how things worked.  The "Learn to Play" book was very helpful and I liked the "Rules Reference" for later.  The box I put together was for the local game store and I am anxiously waiting for our copy to come in.  It is worth the money at $99 for 2 starter factions and all the movement tools.  Currently, you can find it on Amazon for around $70 which makes it a great value.

The miniatures are supplied unpainted but they fit together great.

For the money, you get about 100 points of humans and another 100 of skeletons.  These are easily expanded to the 200 point regular game level.

I will be posting pics soon (as soon as we get our own box) of assembly and painting.  My plan is to airbrush as much as possible and use the Army Painter dip for quick shading.  I want decent looking minis that get to the table quickly.  We will see how it goes.
