    “If I’m not spending five times as much time painting miniatures as I spend playing the game, there’s going to be a problem.” 10/10

    "If you're watching this video you at least have some idea of what Gloomhaven is".
    Or... I have no idea at all but I know if it's worthy of Dana Howl it's worth knowing about it.

    Re the mold lines, sometimes the newer presses have less mold lines than later ones where the molds start to warp slightly. Love the paintjobs!

    I love Gloomhaven! Its such a great game, and unlocking all the extra stuff as you play is so much fun. The minis look pretty good quality too, I would for sure look into getting the full set of minis for the game instead of the cardboard cutouts.

    lo que amo de las viejas miniaturas de gloomhaven es esa estética de miniatura realizada a mano y no en modelado 3d como tienen las nuevas. obviamente las nuevas se ven mucho mejor y con mejores detalles pero como modelador y viejo jugador de juegos de mesa lo clásico me trae mucha nostalgia :P

    Sadly the price point makes the Gloomhaven backing mostly unfeasible in Australia.
    I was interested in it, but at around $1,300 after shipping and tax it's honestly too much. (Shipping alone is $300+)
    Still contemplating the minis only option, as despite wanting to try the game, the miniatures costing only half the price makes it much more viable.

    Good stuff! And yeah, for playing, start with Jaws of the Lion. It's got a good tutorial segment that eases you into the mechanics nicely and is a meaty game in itself. Looking forward to seeing you paint more of the minis!

    I loved Gloomhaven. I think it plays a lot better on tabletop simulator than physically-there is just too much crap to organize and keep track of. Some of the old minis were pretty good, but a few them were awful (looking at you Eclipse/Moon). I'm glad they are getting enhanced.

    Welcome to the wonderful world of Gloomhaven Dana! They are awesome games. We started with Jaws of the Lion and then moved to Gloomhaven proper. Frosthaven was also aquired and awaits our attention in the future. I have some 3D printed minis for the game already, but I backed the entire range of minis as they looked ok to me.

      I loved playing gloomhaven, but with the setup already taking forever and clutter being a problem I can't imagine enjoying it with a full set of minis. Bosses? Sure. Elites? Maybe. Every mook? Please just let me see how many movement hexes I need 😬
