Fun game! I played a skirmish mode playthrough and got very lucky - 6 victory points, 2 defeat points.
I have only one question: how are Reinforcements meant to work? Does "twice per battle" mean per playthrough or per Conflict? I wound up not using the mechanic at all.
Scott, I don't know how you keep pushing the envelope so consistently and also how some gaming company hasn't just paid you oodles of money to lock you into a room somewhere ... cranking out proprietary gems for them but I guess that's their loss and our gain.
There's a neat Quill-like diegetic thing to be had with this game in that your output could be an After Action Report-style artifact (in fact you could probably use this game to generate the conditions for a Quill game which would be a neat little supplement.)
Haha thanks so much! Well that's funny you should mention. I'm partway through creating an in-universe magazine that contains exactly that, along with "news" and frontline reports.
Wow, read through the rules and this is such an original and unique take on the genre. As a sci-fi author playing a solo game becomes a deliberate practice session crafting an intriguing narrative 👍👍👍

Glad you liked it. Reinfocements are twice per game. I might give them a tweak though. Glad you enjoyed it!

Thank you! Hope it gives you plenty of inspo

As a busy parent gamer who has avoided getting into wargaming for years because of cost and time and a lack of space....
You have my attention.
I hope you enjoy it
