Howdie all,
Another gaming nerd signing in from Australia. I was directed here by LFG from a local Aussie forum. He made reference to having a game "much better then Space Hulk".
Being a huge fan of the original 1st Ed of Space Hulk and also of the background to all things 40k I was intrigued. He directed me here
I gotta say it's not quite what I was expecting. I was expecting something campaign related but more in the special forces realms (ala termie boarding forces etc). Maybe a beefed up set of Kill Team rules. But I gotta say I am much intrigued and uplifted by what I DID find instead.
I must admit to being a mini addict
. Have always preferred the skirmish games (Blood Bowl, Space Hulk (kinda - skirmish), Necro, Mordheim). And have been trying to part with my "bits of armies" for 40k as I have neither the time nor the energy to devote to building a workable army for each. What you guys are offering is a skirmish game (and my after brief run through the rules they look solid) which will allow me to capture the flavour and theme of all the cool armies in 40k without taking out a mortgage on the house
.
Too many projects in atm and a trip overseas looming but I will now make it a priority to get two forces together and rope one of my gaming buddies into playing some
. The chance for cool terrain (on a smaller 4x4 scale) and cooler forces (again on small 5-15 bodies scale) and continuity between games. What is not to love???
Cheers all and I'll see you around the forums
