Tbh I didn't even know this game existed until I read this. I still recommend that you play it sometime, it may not be huge, but it feels pretty fresh (to me, anyway, although I think JD and SD are actually both pretty heavily based on the Bolt Action rules) and with some slick city terrain, it feels awesome.

I don't dislike the game mat from the starter box, but we used a 24' Battle Systems mat and terrain, it it was very cool and dynamic.Īs others have mentioned, this is kind of a niche IP in the States, and more rooted in narrative play than competition, so it isn't all that talked- about. The miniatures are fairly nice and easy to work with, they're relatively clean for resin, but you'll need to have some legit 1- inch bases, the ones provided are pretty bad. frankly I think I'll still use my UR-25). There's a new wave of minis coming out, including robots (which were previously missing. Combat is pretty neat and the pace of the game is brisk.

The initiative system is cool and satisfying, and there's loads of narrative opportunity in each game. Just my two cents, and a bit late but, I've played a few games of this recently, and skirmishes are a lot of fun.
