Bandai Spirits has announced its upcoming Gundam Assemble miniatures game, which aims to introduce the iconic Gundam franchise to the tabletop gaming community. The game, first unveiled in January, will feature smaller versions of the popular Gunpla models.
Game Overview
Gundam Assemble is designed as a tabletop strategy game where players will control teams of Gundam miniatures to engage in tactical battles. The gameplay emphasizes strategic unit placement and objective-based missions, appealing to both seasoned miniatures gamers and casual fans.
Game Mechanics
The game draws inspiration from popular skirmish games like Warhammer Underworlds and traditional board games such as Catan. Bandai aims for a more compact gaming experience that fits on a standard kitchen table. Each Gunpla miniature will stand at approximately 5 centimeters tall, making them larger than standard miniatures in other games.
Components and Accessories
While specific details on terrain and accessories are not finalized, the game is expected to include a game board, dice, and unit cards. The design of the miniatures focuses on intricate details, catering to both display and painting needs for model enthusiasts.
Future Developments
Bandai plans to reveal more information about Gundam Assemble in the coming months. Initial figures will be available in special bundles alongside the separate Gundam Card Game.
