What do you think?

… of what ?

If it is 'coming' how can we have seen it to have an opinion ?

I had picked up the book, found the rules interesting but not compelling.

The few miniatures I got seemed really fiddly in a unpleasant way.

I haven't heard about the new version, so a pointer to an announcement would have been helpful, but as I would be hesitant to dive in, the lack is not upsetting.

"If it is 'coming' how can we have seen it to have an opinion ?"

Preview at UKGE,teasers on the Facebook, and Instagram pages, etc. Some rumors.

And, of course, plenty of fan speculation.

But my question could be I interpreted broadly as, "Do you think that a second edition is justified? Aren't he enough rough edges that you want to get rid of? What changed would you like to see?"

"The few miniatures I got seemed really fiddly in a unpleasant way."

Could you explain in more detail? Did you try to assemble them or were you just put off by the assembly instructions?

Too many parts? Parts that were too small? Parts that didn't fit well? A there kits from other manufacturers that have similar flaws, or that accomplished the same outcomes in simpler fashion?

Sorry, these were secondhand, assembled miniatures.

And were fiddly as far as the dropship holding the vehicles.

I now realize I may be conflating two different games. Sorry about that.

But, yeah, pointers to FB and Instagram wouldn't be of much use to some of us…
