Batman December Releases - Arkham Knight, Comic and ANIMATED!

Knight Models have posted up their new releases for December for the Batman Miniatures Game.
The Arkham Knight love continues but we also get some comic characters and THE ANIMATED SERIES!

First up is the man himself, Batman.
The models looks like he has jumped straight from the screen. In game he is a cheap and basic alternative to the other Bats coming in at only 80 Rep. No special rules, just his training and gadgets.

You cant have the Bat without the Cat. Animated Catwoman is another model that looks like she has been drawn in 3D. She is also another cheap and basic version. At only 50 Rep she will be a Free Agent for anyone apart from Law or Joker.

The Riddler arrives in his Arkham Knight final form. A HUGE mech suit.
Did you get all the riddles in game to face him like this?
Th model gives a lot of punch to the Riddler crew. Blood causing weapons and the ability to explode his own Bots makes them a lot more useful than just laying Clues.

Scarecrow and the Arkham Knight get more backup with the Militia Gatling Brute. Costly at 53 Rep and $850 as well as giving away extra VP, his Vulcan cannon has the ability to take out the Batmobile in one turn.

Katana comes from the modern comics to join a Batman or Green Arrow crew as a Free Agent. Deadly and skilled with her Soultaker sword, she brings some close combat punch and serious Blood damage to both crews.

The final model for this month is Black Manta. An absolute beast at 120 Rep, $350, he will join any villain apart from organised crime.
His Death Ray and massive movement could work really nicely in a New Suicide Squad led by Harley.

The finish off this months releases, the Wonderland Gang get some Markers to use as Action Counters. If they are like the Scarecrow ones last month, they will probably include the crew Equipment List as well.

All in all I think this is a fantastic month. So much so, I already have the whole lot on order.

What stands out for you this month?

A Closer Look at Arkham Asylum

Hi all!
I did say I would give you a better look at the wonderful Arkham Asylum from Knight Models so here we are.
I have set up a little sample game so you can see how big it is compared to the minis from the Batman Minis Game. I will also state again that this is a 'prototype' and not the final kit so you will see a couple of areas where I have tweaked it a little. These have been reported back to KM and have been fixed already for production.

Guarding the front gate are a pair of angels. The base of the one on the right looks a little off as I wanted the wings on each to be central. It's an impressive entrance.

Inside the courtyard are a couple of watch towers. The Arkham guards are always armed a willing to stop an escapees. You may recognise these towers from the Arkham City game island.

Joker, Harley and a couple of goons walk out of the front door. I have added an extra step in front of the door to cover a small gap that was there.

The Green Arrow and his trusty Sidekick Speedy are perched on the roof ready for trouble.
Just to the right of Speedy you can see a small arch I have added to the parapet to cover another small gap.

Two Face and the Riddler climb out on to the balconies for a better look at the courtyard.
Beside the fence here there are a couple of panels i have added that could become electrical boxes. These cover a couple of holes the fences didn't quite line up to.

Another look at the front steps with Harley happily strolling towards the police.

The watchtowers are the perfect vantage point for Batman. He can zip up to them and even duck away in the guards hut if needed for extra cover.

The towers also have more than enough room to move around for a full view of the area.
I had to add the Arkham City Batmobile in the middle as that's where it spends most of the game parked.

Shortly after taking these photos, I got carried away with spray cans.
Lots more to do yet, but it's starting to take shape.

More soon,
Hendybadger
