Unfortunately there's nothing quite like firestorm or dystopian wars on the market right now. I noticed they're asking for expressions of intrest in assets and stock, does anyone know if that's the only way to get hold of models now?

I stuck with the pilot pledge, but I chucked in an extra £30 so I could get the fluff books and token set

What do you guys think? I'm not particularly impressed the the core race expansion boxes, but I think that's mostly because of where my fleet's at right now.

Just a quick query to those with experience in the field. If I pledge do they take the cash immediately, or does it wait till the end of the campaign, and does that mean I have to allow for exchange rate changes?

I asked my local game store about bulk d6s today, and I got asked "what colour?" So I was wondering if anyone had tried using the colour scheme from the manual, and if it made life any easier?

Fair enough, maybe a nonfiction focus next time?

Big fan of the naval reading section. Any chance of a five minute segment at the start of each show mentioning new books or series that have come to your attention?

If there's no "amphibious" landing is it even relevant? Campaign opportunities are nice, but it has to be a really solid connection to matter at all.

General Discussion / Battlefield Communications
« on: July 27, 2017, 02:31:30 am »
I know from the pod cast that Ruckdog and Landlubber have both experimented with fog of war rules, but I was wondering if anyone had used chain of command and communications rules before? The reason I ask is that I've been reading one of the andvanced rulebooks for battletech that has such rules, and it got me wondering if they added enough to the play experience to be worth the complication.

It looks interesting, but I'll want to see more details about the card mechanics before I invest any money in it. Deck mechanics alway make me think pay-to-win, hopefully spartan stick to their track record on that front.

Mine response could be paraphrased as "love your game but you need more fluff." I'd be happy to back a Kickstarter under the right circumstances, but most of those circumstances are more real life related than model related
