All,
So I've got SAS and DAK for Western Desert operations. I've been using Fistful of Lead and Pulp Alley for rules. Watched a play through video for 02 Hundred Hours. Seems a bit fiddly, pulling chits from a bag, special dice. Is it worth the trouble?

The silence is deafening. I guess you've answered my question.

02 Hundred is an excellent game.

I have played it multiple times and every game has been intriguing. The game mechanics are actually good, though it takes a learning curve. It does a great job of representing commando type raids moving to ovoid detection.

There was an excellent game played at Little Wars this year with fantastic terrain as commandos came ashore to raid a German U-boat pen.

Overall, it is fun and takes only a couple hours or so to play.

Kim,
How do you think it would work solo?

How do you think it would work solo?

The game has solo rules available on the website (free)

I played a game recently and bought the game. It's nice for asymmetric raid games.

Hi,
I've played a fair bit of 0200H and it's a very good game. It's easy to learn and not too fiddly, certainly not much more so than Fistful of Lead ( which I also play). What sets 0200H apart from all of the other handful of figures skirmish games are the mechanisms for sneaking and covert action. No other system I've tried does it better.

It is a very elegant set of rules,which models raids superbly. There is a set of solo rules and event cards on the website.

Can you play multiplayer? How many figs are manageable for a 2-3 hour game? I'm wonder if it would work for a CON game.
