Nice to hear from you. I will definitely reach out.

How do you guys make rules and balance the game, do you have a couple of mathematicians who do statistical analysis or?

@@Ljosi Hi! The developer chief of Warcrow Adventures is a computer scientist with a strong mathematical background. The game has been worked on statistically. I encourage you to follow us on our social networks and website so you can try it out and judge for yourself.

@@Ljosi I think they are happy to have a well balanced game instead to push the newest release. Just selling miniatures is more the GW style. And of course that’s totally okay, but Corvus Belli likes to sell a cool game and cool miniatures.

Agreed! It's also good for the hobby to have a game get a female "face", but that's incidental to her engaging style and obvious enthusiasm and passion for the game.

@@PrecinctOmegaWargaming She is not only a visible face, she is the developer of the game and the main responsible for the narrative of the dungeon crawler ;)

I personally cannot stand her but a female face is great: the hobby is for all sexes and especially CB always produced gender balanced fluff and minis (squads etc etc..). Just like Malifaux or Privateer Press in the US for example. Something GW, coming from far more conservative roots, struggled to do for a long time. Not that the comparison with GW makes sense of corse: not only CB and GW are not direct competitors but CB's fluff is progressive and far more adult and intellectually challenging than GW's... there is simply no comparison.

Although, if you're not buying their products, it could be argued that their promotion isn't good enough... Thanks for the watch and comment!

@@PrecinctOmegaWargaming I never said I don't buy them, I don't play their rules. I use their minis in agnostic cyberpunk games. But if you compare CV marketing videos to other companies like Catalyst games, DP9, TTCombat or Privateer Press. CV has better video promotions.

Also took forever to get to the point. Downvoted

I’m only here for this comment. I won’t dignify this video with a watch.

Infinity really isn't as complicated as people make it seem. If other games are like the pokemon tcg, then infinity is like magic the gathering. (And I would say MTG is much harder to get into than Infinity haha)

@@vicioushellsing it’s not that it’s complicated, it’s that the number of rules are insane. Also, I hate the ARO system.

@@kaibe5241 ARO is best, that’s for me the reason to begin with infinity.

Thanks! Love your work.

I guess they're... OK. When they have numbers on them.

Come to think of it, didn't MERCs use d8s with symbols?

@@axanax2534 You got me thinking, so I went and looked. MERCS used conventional d10s.

I also took a look, and I see that they're the damage dice from MERCS Recon, listed in the game components.

No. Not at all. This was a silly clickbait title

So is it an unassailable powerhouse that can't possibly fail? Or is it a tiny independent whose future could be harmed by a KZfaq channel so small it costs me money to run? Pick a lane.

That reason is why I'm now getting into infinity. The anime aesthetic was an artstyle that I wasn't a fan of. But now I'm buying my first morats

I think fireteams were always a rather clumsy compromise in an otherwise elegant rules system.

Robert Heinlein has a lot to answer for, but I'll happily take "grok".

Lol I haaaaate that word

I wouldn't describe their designs as bland. But now they're established in the market, it's a lot harder to elicit the "wow" factor when we know what to expect. That said, CB are now locked into the inevitable cycle of having to produce new stuff to keep driving sales, which is certainly leading to a degree of rules bloat which Code One only goes some way to addressing. I need to revisit this story, because it certainly doesn't lookb like WarCrow is having anything like the impact that Infinity did.

@@PrecinctOmegaWargaming That could be it. I just see far less creative works from them like a lot of heavily marvel/blizzard-inspired miniatures or just straight up bizarre resculpts like the new MAF. And I'm with your opinion on the Warcrow miniatures, just...meh. Maybe they should have just gone the anime route like they first did with Infinity. But not to be a downer, I do think nearly all the Endsong stuff I've seen look superb. With their struggles with SKUs, I just don't get how Wacrow is going to fit in their production schedule if it becomes another full ranged skirmish game. It IS brilliant they're pretty open with licensing or just allowing studios to produce third party tools like tokens, and there are other licensed studios working stuff like Rem Racers and a fleet combat game. They're still very good at getting their name out there. Lastly, last time I played it felt like there was less of a rules bloat and more of a profile bloat. There's many overlapping profiles in some factions with minor differences, lots of weird crossovers with contrived writing to explain why (like the Tikbalang in MO), and tons of new characters in every sectorial some pretty useless some absurdly strong. I think they could learn a thing or two from Malifaux's alternative proxy models system. CB could still make new miniatures without having to add new profiles. Those miniatures could be seasonal or limited releases so they don't always have to be in production. But I think CB ought to do a complete profile reset for the next edition: rebalancing profiles and reorganizing army lists. Also your videos are very analytical and informative, and I've enjoyed the few that I've watched so far! What made you want to title the video "Can Warcrow saved CB?" Because unless I misinterpreted the tone, you had a very positive outlook on their future.

@@robotjones6434 I'm still experimenting with what works and what doesn't and I thought I'd see what difference a more click-baity title would make to views. I'm sorry to report that it worked very well (only my PP video got more views, quicker). But I don't think I'll do it again. My soul can only take so much tarnish.

@@PrecinctOmegaWargaming Oh, I'm not criticizing you for that. I just thought I may have missed something. No worries!
