Which of these Osprey/Ambush Alley rulesets are you more likely to play?

Rassilon02 Jan 2012 7:20 p.m. PST

Tomorrow's War

Lentulus02 Jan 2012 7:21 p.m. PST

Tomorrow's war

Irish Marine02 Jan 2012 7:21 p.m. PST

I play both, but I do like FOF better.

Chef Lackey Rich Fezian02 Jan 2012 7:24 p.m. PST

Both, but TW is getting more table time since it came out.

artbraune02 Jan 2012 7:24 p.m. PST

Tomorrow's War

Waco Joe02 Jan 2012 7:25 p.m. PST

Force on Force, if only because I already own those.

Dynaman878902 Jan 2012 7:26 p.m. PST

Force on Force, since I rarely play scifi…

Only Warlock02 Jan 2012 7:41 p.m. PST

BTW, I Wholly endorse the FoF expansion "Cold War Gone Hot". It covers the "What if WWIII had kicked off in 1986!

It has scenarios that cover the usual Fulda gap/Spetznaz stuff, but it also includes "Movie scenarios" like "Red Dawn" "Ice Station Zebra" and the events alluded to in Escape from New York when "Snake" Plissken and a special forces team inserted into Leningrad!

My son gave me that expansion and the Ambush Valley expansion covering Vietnam for Christmas! (My daughter gave me a lovely new Pipe Stand and my wife got my 4 tins of Frogmorton's Tobacco!

nazrat02 Jan 2012 7:45 p.m. PST

I play both, plus Ambush Valley (my favorite). They are all superb, though!

Little Big Wars02 Jan 2012 7:49 p.m. PST

Force on Force (mostly because the print rulebooks and their accompanying Elheim models have landed in my lap); I've got Star Army for the stuff Tomorrow's War was intended to cover (will probably pick up the book anyways).

Joep12302 Jan 2012 7:56 p.m. PST

I will play Tomorrows War more than FoF.
Most of my gaming buddies don't want to play present day moderns, but love SciFi.

Ron W DuBray02 Jan 2012 8:00 p.m. PST

both

MKGipson02 Jan 2012 8:00 p.m. PST

For me it is "Tomorrow's War". Besides I have way more Sci-Fi minis than modern…

SheriffLee02 Jan 2012 8:02 p.m. PST

Tomorow's War

JRacel02 Jan 2012 8:05 p.m. PST

Tomorrow's War, but I own both. I just got done putting the cards for both of them in plastic sleeves this evening. I have more SciFi than moderns, which is the only reason for ranking Tomorrow's War higher.

Jeff

Tgunner02 Jan 2012 8:27 p.m. PST

I play TW more simply because I have more Sci-Fi painted up. That'll probably change as the year goes on and I get my Brits and US troops painted up.

Mooseworks802 Jan 2012 9:13 p.m. PST

Like both but I would pick TW.

Cerberus031102 Jan 2012 9:39 p.m. PST

Why are we being forced to choose?

Should be a poll.

A) FoF
B) TW
C) Both
D) TMP has to many polls.

The G Dog Fezian02 Jan 2012 9:40 p.m. PST

Tomorrow's War, just 'cause I've got lots of sci-fi.

timlillig02 Jan 2012 9:58 p.m. PST

Tomorrow's War- I'm not interested in gaming moderns. I might pick up the Force on force books for scenario ideas though.

Barks102 Jan 2012 10:24 p.m. PST

FoF scenarios using SF figures

(Heresy!)

Sparker02 Jan 2012 11:43 p.m. PST

FoF every time…

Ratbone02 Jan 2012 11:50 p.m. PST

Wow. Complaining about a poll when it ISN'T even a poll! Amazing.

Big Ian03 Jan 2012 12:35 a.m. PST

Tomorrow's War

Jedispice03 Jan 2012 2:58 a.m. PST

Tomorrow's War.

Lion in the Stars03 Jan 2012 3:50 a.m. PST

Tomorrow's War. I have some horrible scenarios I want to try out, I just need to write them up properly.

WillieB03 Jan 2012 4:05 a.m. PST

Tomorrow's War but some of our clubmembers have been buying modern armies in 15mm so I guess FOF will be played soon(ish)

TamsinP03 Jan 2012 4:22 a.m. PST

Tomorrow's War for me, mainly because I game SF but not Moderns at the moment

McWong7303 Jan 2012 4:50 a.m. PST

Tomorrow's War.

Dances with Clydesdales03 Jan 2012 4:52 a.m. PST

FoF, TW a close second.

Unrepentant Werewolf at work03 Jan 2012 5:04 a.m. PST

Tomorrow's War

Von Trinkenessen03 Jan 2012 5:07 a.m. PST

Tomorrows War

TriOpticon03 Jan 2012 6:03 a.m. PST

Tomorrow's War

Oddball03 Jan 2012 6:32 a.m. PST

Force on Force. I modifiy the rules and use it for everything from W.W. II to Sci-Fi (games based upon the Firefly TV series Unification War).

PatrickWR03 Jan 2012 7:00 a.m. PST

Tomorrow's War — you can strip out the SF elements and run moderns just fine, if needed, using the base rulebook.

pzivh43 Supporting Member of TMP03 Jan 2012 8:25 a.m. PST

Both!

CraigH03 Jan 2012 8:42 a.m. PST

FoF – Cold War Gone Hot.

Rudysnelson03 Jan 2012 9:32 a.m. PST

I sell and have read both sets. My worker's groups play Force on Force since they are miniatures available for it. Tomorrow's War has few readily available castings out.

Patrick Sexton Supporting Member of TMP03 Jan 2012 9:37 a.m. PST

Both.

Altius03 Jan 2012 9:38 a.m. PST

TW

ordinarybass03 Jan 2012 10:41 a.m. PST

Tomorrow's War. I don't play modern/historical.

ComradeCommissar03 Jan 2012 12:45 p.m. PST

FoF – Ambush Valley and Cold War Gone Hot.

I don't own TW, but I'd consider getting it if I ever do sci-fi again, though I have a well used copy of Star Grunt 2.

Uesugi Kenshin Supporting Member of TMP03 Jan 2012 1:32 p.m. PST

TW more, but still interested in FoF.

ming3103 Jan 2012 2:35 p.m. PST

Tomorrow War

kallman03 Jan 2012 4:29 p.m. PST

Both

Janick04 Jan 2012 5:30 a.m. PST

Force on Force, but whenever I get into sci-fi in the distant future I'll be using Tomorrow's War for sure.

Lobsterback04 Jan 2012 12:06 p.m. PST

I own and use both.

svsavory04 Jan 2012 5:59 p.m. PST

Both, but only a few games so far. I've also played WWII with 1st Edition FoF. I bought the WWII Fog of War and Asset card decks when they were available. I believe there are plans for an updated book for WWII, which I'm looking forward to.

Sumo Boy04 Jan 2012 6:40 p.m. PST

Both!
