GF9 unleashes the Multi-Template MKII Thursday, 07/03/08 [ General | Posted by: john ] |
|
GF9’s best-selling gaming aid has been taken back to the drawing board and redesigned to make it even better! The Multi-Template Mark II offers a superior level of playability, durability and visual appeal.

The more compact shape allows a player to get the template into tighter spaces on the battlefield; such a whirling close combat where toy soldiers are tightly packed. We have also eliminated any extended, weaker points on the template. This greatly cuts down the chance that the template may crack or even break at one of the joints since the narrow parts are gone. Last, but most certainly not least, we made the Mark II neon orange. Try losing this template on a tabletop! Not going to happen! Game ON!
One question has been asked more than any other regarding the Mark II Multi-Template: Why would GF9 redesign a product that they sell thousands of each year? The answer is very simple: We listened to the feedback from players all around the world and recognized that there was room for improvement on an already great product. This is how the Mark II came about...player input matters!
The Multi-Template MK II will be in stores worldwide as part of Gale Force Nine's dynamic new line of Gaming Aids releasing this summer. The template can also be purchased from the GF9 Online Store!

Cryx & Menoth Battlefield in a Box sets on sale NOW! Thursday, 05/22/08 [ General | Posted by: john ] |
|
Now Available: NEW Warmachine Battlefield in a Box Sets!
Two fantastic new terrain sets from Gale Force Nine’s Battlefield in a Box collection for Warmachine are now in stores! These pre-pained resin-cast terrain sets capture the mood of the war torn Iron Kingdoms and will enhance your tabletop skirmishes. Both highly detailed sets were sculpted by Gale Force Nine’s master terrain builder, Jason Buyaki.

The Menoth Altar of Flame is shining testament to the zealous faith of the Protectorate. Enemy forces know what a crushing blow to Menoth morale the loss of a shrine is to the Protectorate, so warbands target them for destruction whenever possible. But the inspiration Menoth troops draw from these places makes them the most stalwart of defenders. This stately terrain set is a perfect centerpiece for any Warmachine battle!
The Menoth Altar of Flame is available in game and hobby shops worldwide or direct from the Gale Force Nine Online Store!

The fearsome warjacks and dark industries of Cryx are fueled by a charnel material known as Necrotite. Necrotite is created at sites of bloodshed and slaughter where the earth itself has been stained by agony and death. Over time a lusterless dark mineral forms that at first glance resembles coal but upon closer inspection reveals something far more sinister. The vile mineral unleashes necrotic energy which can be harnessed by skilled Necrotechs. Mining crews set up these foul mining rigs across the Iron Kingdoms and guard them violently as their foes seek to rob them of their unholy resource. This dark and fantastic terrain set sets the stage for conflicts in your games of Warmachine!
The Cryx Necrotite Mining Rig is available in game and hobby shops worldwide or direct from the Gale Force Nine Online Store!
Check out Privateer Press’s No Quarter Magazine Issue 14 (September 2007) for special scenarios and rules featuring the Gale Force Nine Battlefield in a Box terrain sets!

GF9 and Battlefront Miniatures Announce Distribution & Warehousing Agreement Monday, 04/21/08 [ General | Posted by: john ] |
|
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
GALE FORCE NINE, LLC. & BATTLEFRONT MINIATURES, LTD.
ANNOUNCE DISTRIBUTION AND WAREHOUSING AGREEMENT
April 21st, 2008 (CHARLOTTESVILLE, VIRGINIA) – Gale Force Nine, LLC., a world leader in the gaming accessories market, announce today that they have entered agreement with Battlefront Miniatures, Ltd to provide warehousing and distribution support in all markets outside of North America.
“GF9 and Battlefront have had a great working relationship over the past few years. Battlefront Miniatures has allowed us to make wonderful gaming aids for their highly acclaimed Flames of War WWII Miniatures game and we in turn have helped them establish a strong convention presence inside the United States,” said John Kovaleski, CEO and Founder of GF9.
Recently Battlefront Miniatures has opened up a third sales & distribution center in Nottingham, England to compliment their already successful offices in Newark, Delaware, USA and Auckland, New Zealand. This new location gives Battlefront Miniatures solid distribution access to all major markets in the specialist hobby industry.
“To help each other out with the economies of scale in both warehousing and overseas shipments, Battlefront Miniatures offered to make their facilities available to us for the mutual benefit of saving significant amounts of money on the logistical side of our businesses,” stated John.
John-Paul Brisigotti, Managing Director of Battlefront Miniatures adds, “It’s simply makes good business sense. Gale Force Nine makes the best hobby products in the industry which are hard to come by outside of the US. This agreement will allow the rest of the world access to the GF9 range and at the same time further cement our close relationship.”
Whilst these changes will take sometime to fully implement, we believe the collaboration will be beneficial to everyone involved with the GF9 Product Range gaining better access, faster turnaround times and less expensive shipping expense to carry the range.
GF9 expects that customers will begin seeing the benefits of this new agreement as early as May, 2008. This is when the first shipments of product are due to arrive at their new warehousing locations. The European and Oceanic regions will be seeing the first of the GF9 main range available to these markets next month with a wider range coming on line over the following few months.

D&D Legend Gary Gygax Passes on. Tuesday, 03/04/08 [ General | Posted by: john ] |
|
We at GF9 were saddened to hear that Gary Gygax, co-creator of Dungeons & Dragons, passed away today at his home in Lake Geneva. He was 69.
Gary was a born story teller and a wonderful person to talk with in person. Gary's rules and fantasy universe was the original reason many of us "Gamers" got exposed to role playing and the hobby industry to begin with.
We will miss you, but your game, stories and imagination will live on forever.
.........................................
The following is the AP story as it appeared on yahoo.com.
By EMILY FREDRIX, Associated Press Writer
MILWAUKEE - Gary Gygax, who co-created the fantasy game Dungeons & Dragons and helped start the role-playing phenomenon, died Tuesday morning at his home in Lake Geneva. He was 69.
He had been suffering from health problems for several years, including an abdominal aneurysm, said his wife, Gail Gygax.
Gygax and Dave Arneson developed Dungeons & Dragons in 1974 using medieval characters and mythical creatures. The game known for its oddly shaped dice became a hit, particularly among teenage boys, and eventually was turned into video games, books and movies.
Gygax always enjoyed hearing from the game's legion of devoted fans, many of whom would stop by the family's home in Lake Geneva, about 55 miles southwest of Milwaukee, his wife said. Despite his declining health, he hosted weekly games of Dungeons & Dragons as recently as January, she said.
"It really meant a lot to him to hear from people from over the years about how he helped them become a doctor, a lawyer, a policeman, what he gave them," Gygax said. "He really enjoyed that."
Dungeons & Dragons players create fictional characters and carry out their adventures with the help of complicated rules. The quintessential geek pastime, it spawned a wealth of copycat games and later inspired a whole genre of computer games that's still growing in popularity.
Funeral arrangements are pending. Besides his wife, Gygax is survived by six children.

War erupts! GF9 accessories for Urban Mammoth games! Thursday, 01/17/08 [ General | Posted by: john ] |
|
Gale Force Nine is proud to introduce templates and tokens for use with Urban Mammoth's Urban War and Metropolis miniatures games.
Urban War: Strike-Team Actions is a fast paced sci-fi skirmish game set in a brutal far-distant universe. Players build small teams of soldiers to fight in the war-torn city planet of Iskandria, the scene of countless vicious conflicts between competing factions, now also threatened by aggressive alien incursions.
Metropolis is a fast paced sci-fi battle game set in the same brutal universe as Urban War. However the war in Iskandria is escalating and the initial skirmishing is developing into full-blown military conflict. In response, all the warring factions are throwing in ever-increasing numbers of fresh troops, including heavier armoured elements. The focus shifts from the individual to the squad, and players take command of armies, or ‘battle-forces’, containing several squads.

The template set is laser cut from durable see-thru orange colored acrylic and is etched with all the markings required to play both Urban War and Metropolis.

The Urban War token set focuses on the status of the individual models during heated faction battles. The Metropolis token set is designed to indicate the status of entire units as they fight in the treacherous ruins of Iskandria. Both sets of durable felt-backed tokens have the bright and colorful iconography of the Urban Mammoth games.
These templates and tokens are available in games stores world wide and directly from the GF9 Online Store!

The first two sets in this exciting new series of pre-painted, centerpiece terrain items from GF9 include: The Khador Avalanche Cannon and Cygnar Storm Research Station. These two amazing pieces are visually stunning. They add flavor and feel to your battlefields. Also, these special terrain sets won’t hit the store shelves for almost three months. You get to see them in this crazy early preview. This is the first chance you’ll get to see, handle and purchase some of these new sets. Wait…purchase? Did we just say “purchase”? That’s right! We did! We wanted to bring a special treat to GenCon so we had a few of the Khador and Cygnar Terrain Sets air shipped to reach us in time for the show. Numbers are incredibly limited and sales are first-come, first-serve so get yourselves on over quick to booth 1411 and check out the hotness. It’ll blow away your opponent when they see how cool these pieces are.


In addition to the really cool terrain sets, the fine folks at Privateer Press have graciously allowed us to make special “Faction Specific” Template Sets for both Hordes and Warmachine. These templates are show exclusives, so be sure to get yours while you are at the event. Each faction has its specific logo and associated color on the template set. They look great, are easy to see which faction you’re playing, and also allow you to spot when your buddy ‘borrows’ your templates without asking. Come and get ‘em while we got ‘em. Supplies are limited so first come, first kill.
Do we have anything else for you all to check out? Absolutely, yes! But we’re gonna make you come to the show to find out. After all, we have to leave a few surprises for the show. Stop by and see us! GenCon is going to be a ton of fun again this year! Get to the show, see the cool stuff, and…GAME ON!!!
OH! Almost forgot, to check out lots more pictures of the two New Warmachine Tables that we are bringing to the show then click HERE! They are REALLY COOL!
...and for all you Menoth Players out there, we have not forgotten you! We just ran out of time to edit the photo's before GenCon.

Recently, we received a commission from an advid gamer who wanted us to create a gaming table themed around the War in Iraq. The table was to be scaled for use with Mongoose Publishing's Battlefield EVO pre-painted miniatures game.
Here's what we came up with:

Warmachine Markers Cloud the Battlefield Thursday, 06/21/07 [ General | Posted by: john ] |
|
Gale Force Nine’s Warmachine Cloud Effects Markers are designed to effectively denote continuous Cloud Effects on the table top with a dynamic 3-D marker while still maintaining playability. These markers are the ideal solution to indicate attacks such as The High Reclaimer’s Burning Ash or the Breath of Corruption from the Iron Lich Asphyxious.
Once placed on the table, the center cloud piece may be easily rotated or removed from play to allow models to move through the cloud region as necessary. The color coordinated 3” diameter outer ring remains in place to mark the exact location of the cloud.
Each marker set is manufactured from colorful, high quality translucent acrylic. Each pack contains one complete marker. Pictures show multiple packs of effects in action.



(Miniatures shown for scale ONLY. Miniatures not included.)
Gale Force Nine tokens and game accessories for Warmachine and Hordes are available in game stores worldwide and direct from the GF9 Online Store!
These fantastic new markers, our full line of tokens and dice and some special CONVENTION-ONLY Warmachine Faction templates will all be available from GF9 at the Origins International Game Expo in July. Make plans to visit us!

Weigh Anchor Scurvy Sea Dogs! Tuesday, 06/19/07 [ General | Posted by: john ] |
|
Take to the high seas with Gale Force Nine’s newest WARMACHINE token set. The master and commander of the Sea Dogs, Captain Phinneus Shae, joins the ranks of our licensed token sets for your Mercenaries. The Phinneus Shae token set is available at your local game store or directly from the GF9 Online Store!
Once a respected nautical warcaster for the Mercarian League, Captain Phinneus Shae has turned to piracy aboard the Talion. Shae is a wanted man but refuses to allow the bounty on his head to get in the way of earning a profit as a sword for hire. His powers over wind and storm serve as well on land as at sea, and few can stand against him blade to blade.
Choose your Warcaster; then choose your token set. Each set of tokens is specifically designed to contain every counter, marker or token needed to play IK Warmachine with your given Warcaster. These colorful tokens are done in the incomparable Gale Force Nine style; laser cut from durable clear acrylic plastic and backed with felt to protect your gaming surface and miniatures.
This Phinneus Shae Warcaster Token Set contains the following:
1 x Coup de Main
6 x Focus
1 x Godspeed
2 x Knockdown
1 x Phantasm
1 x Scurvy
3 x Storm Rager
1 x Torrent

Later this week, our new line of licensed Warmachine effects markers will be available via our Online Store! These fantastic 3-D counters function both as effects markers and area of effect templates. Watch for them!
