The rules are extremely slick, easy to pick up and quick to play. Casualties and suppression is all done on the same roll and with only one small, unobtrusive card counter on the table per unit made for almost zero table clutter. All the weapons have varying abilities to make them unique so it's not just about the number of dice thrown, and the faction cards make both side feel different even though they are using identical units.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05874810854862043893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4447293089931737000.post-75738193190270317382015-11-26T10:47:35.604+00:002015-11-26T10:47:35.604+00:00It is a step up for GW in terms of game components...It is a step up for GW in terms of game components after the dismal boxed set of AOS.John Lambsheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04598696442104566164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4447293089931737000.post-31014405112631991842015-11-26T10:46:35.794+00:002015-11-26T10:46:35.794+00:00We are not a games company - so we are going to, u...We are not a games company - so we are going to, um, release a load of new games......John Lambsheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04598696442104566164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4447293089931737000.post-80718626721150467022015-11-26T10:45:52.729+00:002015-11-26T10:45:52.729+00:00And I am north of you by, um, oh at least five mil...And I am north of you by, um, oh at least five miles. :)<br />John Lambsheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04598696442104566164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4447293089931737000.post-23359659025109086272015-11-26T10:45:08.768+00:002015-11-26T10:45:08.768+00:00Or how long it will last.Or how long it will last.John Lambsheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04598696442104566164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4447293089931737000.post-28871173081752994222015-11-25T21:21:41.474+00:002015-11-25T21:21:41.474+00:00Be interested to hear a full review from you as so...Be interested to hear a full review from you as someone with a prolific professional background in the industry once you've had the chance to try it out.<br />Meltaburnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16120664809772067412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4447293089931737000.post-49682105791625083272015-11-25T19:39:29.095+00:002015-11-25T19:39:29.095+00:00Great work, John!

In fact, I actually see this as very similar to AoS- you can see how easy it would be to expand and turn into a full wargame. The only thing they'd have to do is copy Wizkids and release giant paper [hex] maps and BOOM! 40k as a board game...<br /> But yeah, I suggest giving the game a shot. It's actually quite good (I'm not dissatisfied with the $150 price tag, and that says something!). Oh, and "For Calth!"agemmanjwhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14584348604301217214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4447293089931737000.post-46686579963564264152015-11-25T17:13:21.446+00:002015-11-25T17:13:21.446+00:00GW is doing a bunch of strange (for them) things l...GW is doing a bunch of strange (for them) things lately, releasing the 30k set, restarting specialist games, and now a black Friday sale? madness.
