Heroic Maps - Day & Night: The Caravanserai

Nice and detailed. Long overdue to have something detailed and ready to go for a desert or Dark Sun campaign.

Heroic Maps - Storeys: Fronte Cover Books - Bookshop of Secrets

Great map. I really like how I can use this city location for a variety of tales due to its different and detailed components. The quality of the artwork is excellent and really helps seal the deal. I use these in fantasy grounds unity and works just fine.

Roma Aeterna MEGA BUNDLE [BUNDLE] by Mat B.	Publisher: PERMES Date Added: 06/10/2021 19:33:38

Great variety, very straight forward assembly, and I bought this when it was discounted, so great price. The base pages could be filled with more bases to save paper, but other than that it's fantastic. I purchased this specifically for the gladiatorial combat game Sons of Mars and it looks like all of the models that I need/want are included in the Roma Aeterna mega bundle

THE FRONT: Assault in the trenches by Robert H.	Publisher: Solitary Division Date Added: 06/09/2021 13:12:01

A light wargame only 4 pages of rules. Many typos and grammar errors in the english edition. These errors make the interpretation of the game mechanics much more difficult. Explanation of the rules do not flow in a intuitive manner. Was given a 5 star review? Was that by the game designer/publisher? Consider this game for newcomers to wargaming; as long as the typos and grammar are corrected. Consider this game as a filler between other activities. Low counter density is a plus. When on sale not a bad purchase. ...

Stars & Lasers by Rafael R.	Publisher: Mac Date Added: 06/07/2021 03:10:01

Stars&Lasers is a game of Space-borne combat designed by Mac Cross. I was introduced to it while gaming in the South London Warlords, a club known for being the organisers behind the Salute!. If you don't know what Salute is, please, check http://www.salute.co.uk/!! As said, Mac introduced me to this fantastic game short after my arrival to UK (in the non-pandemic 2017!). I was looking to use my Battlefleet Gothic (BFG) starships in a game, and he told me that any spaceship could be used for his game! “Nice!” was my answer. And so it began. He sent me a copy of the basic rules, that in this game, are also the advanced rules. That is the first strong point of the game. Simple, direct rules. After a little explanation on how does the turn for each ship goes, we went straight into a battle. And what a battle! The game plays with the “inertial” mode with a simplified system where your ship has to move all its thrust (logical!) and can accelerate or decelerate for 2’’ of moveme...

Five Parsecs From Home - Solo Adventure Wargaming by Lee S.	Publisher: Modiphius Date Added: 06/06/2021 00:54:59

Five Parsecs From Home - Solo Adventure Wargaming

I immediately liked the game from what I saw in reviews, but I wanted to wait until I played at least one campaign turn to get a better grip on it. So far, I'm really liking it. I'm playing the battles on Tabletop Simulator so I have access to minis and terrain, and playing ther pre-battle and post-battle phases on my desk. I had mostly used TTS to play Castle Ravenloft, so my collected minis didn't quite fit the theme, but I think over time I'll build a better sci-fi collection to pull from. I'm even considering buying custom figures from Hero Forge. Entirely due to this game. I like that on the first playthrough, I didn't have to read everything. A lot of the stuff only needs to be read if it's pertinent at the time. For example, my crew consists of three humans, a feral (felinoid) a precursor and a robot. So I could skip reading about the other aliens for now. Combat is real simple to learn, but more thorough than it looks. Finally, a combat s...

Hot tub adventures for those thinking something a little samuri or perhaps Austin Powers and the Fat Bastard pool scenes.

Reign in Hell by Romain R.	Publisher: Snarling Badger Studios Date Added: 06/05/2021 08:00:04

Since I try Mordheim back in 1999 I was hooked on skirmish games. And since like a miniature addict that I am, I look for game that give me the same magical feeling. And with Reign in Hell we are pretty close. Pro: -Really easy to play and teach even for people who never played a miniature game. -You probably already have everything you need to play this game (and you can find printable/foldabe 12sided dice if you don't got them). -The campaign system work way better than in most game I play so far, and it's really cool without be time consuming. -It's a really dynamic game the activation system is a hit, and the soul dice can transform a lost game in a win even at the very end. -You can get wild with convertion. -The way you make your cabal make the game realy balanced. Con: -Even if there is only 6 philosophy and 6 lesser demon making a band can be though, especialy for those who doesn't like list building. -You have to play aggressive, no tricky shooty, catch m...

Battle for Diratia - Wargame & RPG hybrid by Victor D.	Publisher: Productions Diratia Date Added: 06/05/2021 03:15:03

Battle for Diratia is a bit of an enigma - I'm not sure whether it's a table-top miniatures wargame masquerading an an RPG-Lite, or an RPG-Lite dressed up as a table-top wargame! 1. The rules are easily accessible and elegantly simple (but see below), but require either the player use a 3d printed proprietry dice (which don't appear to be commercialy available anywhere, at least at this time; it really is a case of print them yourself, or pay someone to print them for you) or use regular d6 but remember what each face represemts within the game system. As buying a 3d printer for some dice will be beyond most gamers, and paying someone else to print for you will suffer the usual problem with scale efficieny - who's going to be willing to print a small number of items without charging a lot more per item for them? In this case, it'll be remember what each face of the d6 means - and whilst that's none too onerous, some may feel its easier/better/quicker to s...

Reign in Hell by David G.	Publisher: Snarling Badger Studios Date Added: 06/03/2021 16:10:42

Excellent skirmish game. I have playedplayed my first game with a friend. It was very streamlined and engaging to make a cabal. Both of us had a lot of fun. I am definitely looking forward to playing the campaign. Highly recommend. It is very fast paced and brutal as advertised.
