Howdy Folks!

Allow me to introduce our new game, Bad Lands: Curse of the Skinwalker (http://www.gangfightgames.com/badlands/)!

Bad Lands is a Co-Op Western Horror Survival Game where you play the roles of rival gang members turned town defenders, forced to put their differences aside to fight off a vicious onslaught of Skinwalkers (were-beasts) and many other folklore creatures.

Curse of the Skinwalker is the first game, focusing on werewolves and other were-things, along with other corrupted animals like Jackalopes or Chupacabras. We do have other separate-but-compatible games planned for other themes, this is just the first.

The game is fast and fun and easy to learn. It plays similar to other survival games like Zombicide, you can use the heroes right out of the box for a quick game, or build your own heroes, adventures and campaigns totally from scratch and earn fame and fortune RPG-style.

The game shares many similar rules with our skirmish game, Blackwater Gulch. You can use any BWG miniatures in your games if you wish, we'll have downloadable Hero Cards for every BWG character or you can use them for your custom heroes. There are no miniatures in Bad Lands though, we will be using cardstock pawns similar to games like Pathfinder to keep the prices way down. We will do miniatures later on though, but first we need to get the core game funded. We're planning to launch the game on Kickstarter on February 1st if all goes well. We're working on the "how to play" video and hope to have that done in a few days to a week or so.

We've been working on this game for the last 2 years now and are really excited to see it all finally coming together! So, head on over to our website to check it out! You can see some more pictures and also download the preview rulebook. Or leave a reply or PM with any questions :)

Little update, we finished the preliminary loot cards now. The design my change slightly in the end, once we are finished drawing up all the stat icons. For now, I placed each of the core loot cards here in this PDF

http://www.gangfightgames.com/badlands/downloads/BadLandsSampleLootCards.pdf

Gray cards are uncommon, there will be multiple copies of each making up almost half of the 64-card deck. Green cards are uncommon, blue are rare, purple are infamous and orange is legendary. You'll only be able to get Legendary cards in the core boxed game(s). Later on when we do all new stand-alone games, each one will have a different legendary item.

Beast Packs will have 10 extra loot cards too... 4 commons, 3 uncommon, 2 rare and 1 infamous. There will be some repeats for common items but each new beast pack will have a few new loot cards too that don't come in the core box.

The first beast pack we're planning is Werebulls, they'll have an Alpha Skinwalker Bison, 2 Skinwalker Bulls and 3 Hodag minions. That will be the first stretch goal and an add-on item, and each goal will also add a new bonus hero and/or monster to the core game too

Hey folks

Our Kickstarter preview page is up, we’re planning to hit the launch button on Feb 1st.

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/gangfightgames/1965724351?token=8a0cdb41

We still have to add some more graphical menus, and finish the how to play video, and we’re still waiting for a few more art pieces to come in (I think the werebison is my favorite :) ). Also as soon as the campaign launches we’ll add update #1 to act as a menu listing all of the Blackwater Gulch gangs and solo minis with photos. Since there’s a lot we thought it would clutter up the main page too much. Throughout the campaign we’ll also be posting updates with hero & monster bios and fluff.

Stay tuned :)
