Had wanted a go with the new rules since I had a read on the game forums months ago got a pdf copy the day of release then hard copy at the store, my huge pulp VSF miniatures range ment i was able to smile at some of the miniatures inthe book and companys you could devise, I spent a bit on a spred sheet to make them readable to me and decided a quick go on my skirmish board and using my new MDF buildings, 200 pts aside
Lord of light basically my comic and characters from the past 50 years, 4 main character and the rest are the chosen,
Bad guys i picked the baisc military list and shoved them as the Silver Twilight, a Captain and a SGT with 6 rifle men
The layout I picked the started sceanrio of 3 objectives to fight over, (3 young ladies)
The silver twilight advance and find there closer than the enemy
The lord of light lead by Wolff race ino the town
The Twilight get one young lady in ther clutches in the second turn and move straight fo the next 2
take postion to defend there prize
The lord of light move to out flank the twilight but a rifle man has another young lady already
shots are fired as the lord of light come into sight
Miss Tye sword in hans runs to cut off the escape route of the twilight
long range fire ensues in the town the twilights rifles make there mark
A bloody gun battle in the road trying to save the young lady
Although he was charges the silver twilight breaks free from combat with the swords woman
The Captian grab's the final young lady while his rifle men cover him
The gunfight in the road ends with multiple bodies pistol and rifle fire dealing out death to both sides, a brave gentlman catches the young lady and escorts her to safety
Miss Tye charges the SGT who shots but misses point blank enough to make her miss her swep of her blade
A brave ensign charges inot the frey as another rifle men goes inot the melee with the lord of light swords woman
Pistols and blade close range leaves only the young Miss Tye standing
The captian seeks to run for his life an officer blocking his path and the swords woman bearing down on him
He makes a dodge and is away with his prize leaving the lord of light in control of the situation but 1 young innocent lost
finishing character cast
The Captain with his prize
What I learned, the rules work very well and i enjoyed the interation and game stats shooting is hard if you move at all a standing rifle man can pick off enemys easy, the rolls for disengage and combat are good, I liked the ease of play and the way it works as a whole. I will after this revise my character casts and weapons etc and maybee make my character s a bit stronger but i must say all suffered hits but the pluck save is great...
Good game and what and more than I expected.....
