The latest variant of HARDWIRED shifts the game away from the Solo/Co-op play of the previous rule sets and introduces head-to-head combat. Your gene-spliced, cyber-augmented agents now command tactical teams; squads of troopers, drones, and heavy assets in a bid to control a rival corp's territory and ultimately takeover their headquarters.
The core mechanics like the Action Dice Pool and Two-Dice Bonus are still there, as are the five classes of hi-tech Corporate Agents – Ronin, Razor, Splicer, Sawbones, and Shiver. There are three additional unit types for the players: fire teams of Corporate Security Troopers, pods of semi-autonomous drones, and individual tactical assets known as 'Heavy Support Units' which can be customized from a menu of upgraded capabilities. Now in development. Hoping for a Q4 release. More info at: link |

I will keep an eye on this one as Flashpoint is my favorites science fiction skirmish rules. Looks like it is in the same vein. |
