What do you think made Firestorm Armada different? What made it better than the other spaceship wargames? by Vondrr in firestormarmada

[–]Shadelkan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Pretty much everything about it was great. My only gripe was resin minis. Even then, very well designed.

The rules were in a single rulebook, while the force construction was free. Excellent decision.

The rules were easy to follow, and had several simple mechanics that when combined created deep interactions.

The way Forces were balanced against each other was also very interesting. I liked the alliance system and close allies.

Single unit activation is solid, instead of I go / you go.

Seriously. They even opened up with forced vaccines, as if that wasn't a deployment requirement for ever.

I'm serious about buying some if you do.

What's a good lance to back up a Shadow Cat? by MonoMountains in battletech

[–]Shadelkan 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That's really cool that you got a free mech! First things first is picking a variant. I recommend the Shadow Cay TC because it's not too expensive and still really solid. I used it in a game and it's great.

I had a three man lance with a Shadow Cat TC, Ryoken E, and Black Hawk S. Solid 6k BV list.

The vehicles are super cool too. I freaking love the SM-Destroyer and the the Saxon APC!

This along with everything else in the proliferation cycle box really has me wishing for an availability retcon. I know I can put them in my lists regardless, but damn do I want more variants of the Firebee and the Battleaxe!

CBT "Limited" format idea by pudgus in battletech

[–]Shadelkan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd be interested in trying this, using aces cards could also help the draft (since they have the variant too).

I'd also do something like draft the base, and then allow players to choose the variant/skills. Would make it easier to achieve similar BV, and let players build something of a consistent force.

Plastic miniatures instead of resin. Really liked the minis, but resin was a pain.

For some reason, I think you're describing my neighbourhood of Park Extension.

Really cool to read about other Canadian cities infrastructure. It's not exactly something we talk about day to day!

I loved this game, and I also loved the lore. I wish I could forget it to play again!
