I decided last week to drag out my old AE-WWII stuff, get some painting done and then introduce my gaming group to this most excellent set of rules. Today I did that and we had a super time.

Is anybody else out there playing the game? I know that a Kickstarter just finished up and Black Ball is about to release the rules again, but I see very few people talking about them. We all found the rules solid and tactically challenging. Hopefully this time's the charm and maybe they'll get broader acceptance.

We still are, but only about once every other months.

We still play it, one of my more favorite games. I like that you can either play Wierd War with it or a normal detachment, and still have the same odds in winning.

I will say that I despise the vehicle rules though, glad they are rewriting them

Enjoyed the game Naz. I will be looking forward to giving it another go. Lots of possibilities with these rules.

Love the game!

From the Kickstarter updates I've seen, changes seem to be in some of the original unlocking units making them more useful (Mad Doktor and ARPA Mechanic), simplifying the SS unlocking structure, and there was mention of the fixing the vehicle rules.

All of which are welcome changes, but none would deter me from playing the existing rules again.

Also nice to see some progress on some of the unlocking units that have not been represented by models. Makes my conversion job a little lighter.
