Gunfighter's Ball Kickstarter

Knuckleduster's long-awaited Gunfighter's Ball game system is ready for Kickstarter! Updates will go out on Facebook and through our Gunfighter's Ball blog.

This tabletop miniature game is a free-wheeling, intuitive tabletop game for multiple player pick-up games, where the fun of having a wild and woolly shootout where anything can happen takes precedence over the confines of point-based, tournament-style play.

The system has inherited much of the feel of Desperado, Tom Kelly's classic Western game from the '90s (which Knuckleduster currently produces), but with streamlined mechanics and new rules for things like quickdraw contests, fanning, and called shots.

Advanced rules and cards give options for players who want a more challenging stye of play. At all levels, the game does what Desperado always did exceptionally well: combine the freedom of roleplaying with the turn-based excitement and clear boundaries of tabletop skirmish games.

The Kickstarter will include:

  • Core rules (the Judge's Guide)
  • Cards for characters, wounds, special abilities, and weapons
  • Game aids
  • Expanded terrain selection, with our signature multi-media mdf/metal/resin kits, which are finely detailed, but extremely easy and quick to assemble.
  • Exclusive minis and resin detail kits.

We Go Live the First of November!
