Other Ogres
The board game comes with the Mk III and Mk V as do the reinforcements pack and the miniatures set one. Where can one purchase all of the other ones such as the MK I-VI and the Ninja, Vulcan, and Fencer? And if you buy them do they come with scenarios to use them?

In Plastic The Mk.III and Mk.V are available in Miniatures Set 1, which came with a super-slimmed version of the "Miniatures" [no grid, rulers and templates] rule set. The Mk.IV and Fencer are coming as part of Miniatures Set 2, which are on track to deliver later this summer / early this fall. A kickstarter to produce the Mk.VI and a "Community Choice" cybertank [survey closes the 25th, hopefully somebody has my back...and the link!] launches next month; we don't have an exact date, but Phil has suggested earlier rather than later. The I, II, III-B, Dopplesoldner, Vulcan, and Ninja are currently unavailable / not in production in plastic. As of my last conversation with Phil / Drew on the subject, there are no plans to create a unique sculpt for the Huscarl (a lightly-modified Mk.V) at this time. In Cardboard The Mk.III and Mk.V in Combine colors are available in Ogre: 6th Edition The Mk.III and Mk.V [which can also proxy for the Legionnaire and Huscarl] in PanEuropean colors are available in Ogre: Reinforcements. Ogre: Battlefields is rumored to contain 2 Ninja, a Vulcan, a Fencer-B, and 2 Mk.I. This set is currently in development, and its contents are subject to change. Ogre Miniatures 2nd Edition, at least the Kickstarter and Pre-Order editions [if you're interested it's on Warehouse 23, and according to Phil the over-print is pretty small] will contain a Mk.VI. Contents of a 2nd bonus sheet have not yet been revealed, but we have fairly solid evidence that it will contain a Vulcan and, for the first time, 3D drones to go with it. Other units are available through the Ogre Sponsored Counter Sheets that were created as part of Designer's Edition. Uncommon Ogres has IIIs and Vs in the colors of a variety of factions, Nightfall has the III, IV, and V in sinister Black. Barbarians at the Gate contains 2D Mk.Is, and Nihon North American Divisions has the I, II, III, III-B, and V all in 2D form. And of course, there is Designer's Edition itself which contains...everything. Multiples of everything. 27lbs of everything. They're out of print, but you can find them circulating second-hand pretty regularly. Scenarios: The following are known-to-me sources of scenarios that are compatible with 6th Edition: Ogre 6th Edition Ogre Reinforcements Ogre Battlefields Ogrezine [available in PDF from Warehouse 23] Ogre Scenario Book 1 [available in PDF from Warehouse 23] Ogre Scenario Book 2 [available in PDF from Warehouse 23] Ogre Scenario Book 3 [available in PDF from Warehouse 23] Ogre Designer's Edition Scenario Book [Available from the SJGames "Ogre Resources" page] The Ogre Scenarios page ----------- I'm sure somebody with a more extensive knowledge than I will know where you can get more stuff, too. Closing the Gap is usually fairly up to date with sources of where to look for various things. Above is entirely from memory, I should have just checked there. >_< Edit to clarify the name drops: Drew = Drew Metzger, Ogre Line Editor for SJGames Steve = Steve Jackson, the Steve Jackson in Steve Jackson Games Phil = Phil Reed, CEO of SJGames

Re: Other Ogres
One of the updates for Ogre Miniatures, Second Edition suggests that it will also include a Doppelsoldner in purple and gold.

Re: Other Ogres
Don't forget the Ogre Book (W23 d/l)! It has scenarios as well. While not specifically compatible with O6E, they can be adapted without much trouble.
Plus, it's a really great resource for the game. |
