60 of 79 · most liked firstPlaying a bit of Menace (turn based tactics game from the Battle Brothers devs), and I'm kind of fascinated by the use of turn order as a mechanic to really give you the sense that your troops are an elite force, but also vulnerable. Played right, it delivers the 'knife-through-butter' fantasy.
unlabelledView post →4) Battle Brothers. The second greatest squad level tactics game of all time, after X-Com 2. You lead a merry band of scum around a randomly generated map, fighting intense battles against everything from peasants to giant wyrms. Ideally played Ironman, like all such games, once you’re good.
unlabelledView post →We’ve loved working with Overhype Studios to publish MENACE. It's been such a privilege to work with the creators of Battle Brothers, a game that our team loves dearly. Now we're doubly honored, because they're giving us a chance to serve as the publisher for Battle Brothers as well!
unlabelledView post →I mentioned playing Battle Brothers a couple days ago and getting my entire little group of checkerboard guys super murdered but that’s sort of the game. Getting the best outcome in everything is depriving myself of the horrific miserable slog of medieval peasant carnage & that’s what I’m there for
unlabelledView post →a thing TTRPG designers can learn from MENACE: If players aren't "playing the game right", change the mechanics so that the players now play the game correctly! So, let me explain MENACE is the second game by the guys who made Battle Brothers.
unlabelledView post →I've not had a chance to put in quite as many hours as others pre-release, but I can confirm that this one is legit. Gritty sci-fi tactics from the Battle Brothers team. Onboarding could be a bit better in early access (get a B-team ASAP, there's fatigue), but there's a lot of game here to chew on.
unlabelledView post →...does anyone have that picture of a handgonne I did with traditional media back in 2016 as fanart for Battle Brothers ? I always liked it because it ended up looking exactly like the one they added in the game years later but I realise now I have no idea where to find it again.
unlabelledView post →To save time on animation as we build a playable game, @ag-radley.bsky.social suggested going for the Battle Brothers route: customizable busts and gear. In the future I'd love to have them fully bodied/animated but this is a perfect way to prototype the game. I love the look of these little guys.

unlabelledView post →(This joke is cause the creators of MENACE made Battle Brothers, a game with no women, and they fixed THAT oversight and then some, holy shit)
unlabelledView post →There will still be times where I, as a player, will reload the game. But they're MUCH LESS OFTEN than I would in Battle Brothers - because, at the end of the day, the game is designed to not completely ruin my day when i lose people. It does still hurt, emotionally, because...humans are empathic!
unlabelledView post →The devs who made this game previously made Battle Brothers, which is a great game except its all dudes so in MENACE they unlocked "women" in their skill tree and HO MAN they made so many amazing women
unlabelledView post →They did something I call...game design! They altered the mechanics of their game with an eye towards incentives and how humans *play* So, basically, in Battle Brothers, you have these bros. They look like this.
unlabelledView post →oh btw i did the new content on this run in Battle Brothers if you like playing said game and it's good and definitely sort of a bridge legendary like Iljorok. 2h flail that hits from the backline and has swordlance reap does terrible things with headhunter + brute.
unlabelledView post →Im always sad when I see opinions like this that treats any art style that dont try to be anything cinematic related as lesser or something that holds the game back. Battle Brothers art style is great, and not only it was very aesthetic pleasing, they were very smart in how they use it.

unlabelledView post →store.steampowered.com/app/365360/B... I realized that Battle Brothers was my second most played game of all time, and I'd never left them a review. An early Hooded Horse hit, that really brought the low fantasy brutality.

unlabelledView post →I forgot the Battle Bros title was inspired by Super Smash Bros, Smiling friends, and despite the game Battle Brothers. Bat-tle Bros, Smil-ing Friends. Yeah that wasn't on accident. This all for a comic created because I wanted my own Goku and Vegeta.
unlabelledView post →I'm hosting an introductory game of #OPR Grimdark Future in a couple days. I'm using 2 of my recently finished (mostly!) armies for our small game: my Eisenkern Battle Brothers (tan) vs my custom Star Soldiers army (green). Probably 1000 points on a 4' x 4' ruined city table. I expect to lose... 🤣

unlabelledView post →This is actually my big problem with Battle Brothers, for a game that is so in love with the aesthetic of the dark fantasy mercenary (oh, they curse! They're offensive towards women!) the titular dudes are shockingly well-behaved both on the field and outside of it.
unlabelledView post →it's translated, and I talk about this one a lot, but angband being a game based on a book with a notoriously dense (and discoursed upon) translation is a fair pick. honestly a lot of roguelikes enjoy this status. more recently, japanese players have wanted a translation for Battle Brothers

unlabelledView post →Gotta say that, hearing the Battle Brothers people were making a gritty sci fi tactics game, and got the Astartes guy to do their intro movie, I was not expecting the actual game itself to tonally be a spiritual successor to Jagged Alliance.

unlabelledView post →it takes cues from xcom (original and firaxis) but also jagged alliance and tabletop wargaming like 40k, and a good dose of the devs' previous game Battle Brothers too
unlabelledView post →This reminds me of when you start a new Battle Brothers campaign and it asks you what you want your end-game crisis to be lol.
unlabelledView post →One of the first battle themes anyone who plays battle brothers hears, and it is a good one! Really helps soothe the pain of losing your best bro to a bandit with a 5% chance to hit after he whiffed two 90% swings back to back! #battlebrothers #music #videogame #game #gaming #indiegame
unlabelledView post →Been playing Battle Brothers. I really like it. It's like Mount & Blade but a turn based tactics game with magic and monsters. Wish there were Battle Sisters too in the vanilla game but I guess they're REALLY committed to the 'Battle Brothers' bit. Will buy the DLCs when I can afford it.
unlabelledView post →Hell yeah, the Battle Brothers devs released a demo for a sci-fi tactical game store.steampowered.com/app/2432870/...

unlabelledView post →Played some One Page Rules: Grimdark Future yesterday to make up for missing it on Monday! I had a very strong start, but the dice betrayed me at every turn in the second half of the game. We ended with Battle Brothers 1, Human Defense Force 0.
unlabelledView post →great read, this game sounds incredible and i desperately want it translated. feels like the primordial version of a lot of modern "story generator" games like Rimworld or Battle Brothers in how it uses a very systems-based design to create a strong, immersive narrative
unlabelledView post →(Battle Brothers being a fantasy game that has a very german-ish setting so zombies are Wiedergangers; ghouls are Nachzehrers; elves are Alps; giant spiders are Webknechts...)

Every time there's a big patch or DLC for the next 5 or 6 years I'll be back for another 40 hour campaign. I'ma play a ton of this game, I can already tell.
