DO IT!  >:D

Well I already ordered the #2 Expansion pack...  :nerd:

I have the 2nd Edition core game. I read from somewhere the rules are to their third version. Are v3 rules available somewhere as a download? A quick google revealed some old links that are not there anymore.

Ah, they were under the product page, though the core game itself was out of print.

Awwwwww craaapppp! I  totally missed Warfighter Modern's Wave 3 going live on KS!
I had reserved cash to go all-in on this one, but for some reason I never received the notification! Bullocks!  :uglystupid2:

Meanwhile 1985: Under an Iron Sky has been delivered at a service point ready to be picked up!

Also I have been re-energizing my ASL endeavors.

Maybe you can get in on the Backerkit to buy stuff... not sure how that works though...

Yeah I have shot DVG an email asking if there's a way I can still become an early bird.

Warfighter Modern is such a nice game with a few friends and a jug of beer.
Anyone interested in playing some Warfighter co-op in Table Top Sim?

On the virtual table...

At Any Cost: Metz 1870

My opponent is 3000 miles away. Played real-time with Skype and Vassal.

Like this game system. The use of event chips is just right. No uber chits that overpower the flow of the game, but that add the right level of unpredictability.

The French III Corps makes a final assault on Vionville. A scrappy group of Prussian guns and sharpshooters held them off from the town. The French eventually push them out, only to lose the town in a Prussian counter-attack. Earlier turns saw the Prussian X and French IV Corps chew each other up in the central part of the board.

This has been on my radar for a while now. I already have 'Position Magnifique' formerly published as 'Duel of Eagle' from which this game is derived. Its an excellent system and a very interesting battle.

I have "Duel of Eagles" as well. "At Any Cost" is definitely worth getting if you enjoy Luttmann's "Blind Swords" system.

The only issue I have with the system itself is that is not the greatest for asynch PBEM type play. Some chits can be used during the other player's turn. But that is just the nature of the beast, and frankly, new releases that are perfect for asynch play are becoming more rare.

I've been on a lookout for the Untold Stories for quite some time, the few items made available been always priced out from what I was ready to pay. Not this one, was sold together with Paris is Burning even.

Super cool.

I was wondering if the prices on US would drop as the re-release approaches.

It's a big deal to make most of the scenarios in the Compendium work.

Yes, some of the add-ons can be quite a mess to set up.

You are probably aware of this scenario guide already but here goes:
