Today we revisited my new Dr Who rules for another playtest!
My (fairly long) report on the two games is on my blog, of course, at this link

Enjoy!

No ideas to help you simplify

Don't worry, I think we worked all the bugs yesterday, I think I was being a bit rigid with the rules, and we did a couple of things wrong!
Its always amazing how I can write rules and not remember them in a game! My only conclusion is that I consider several options and forget which one you chose!
I just finished revising the rules and adding the cards we discussed, and I thought of independently after the game, so I think I will be able to release them on our website quite soon.
Thanks as always for commenting!

That archway…

…triggered memories of the Reverend Magister and Azal.

I think they are Pegasus, but I may be wrong, I have had them for a long time!

And the figures?

The Doctor and Professor are Crooked Dice. link
The Jamie is top half Crooked dice, bottom half Gripping Beast.
Zoe is the old Harlequin Miniatures one I got from E-Bay,
The Silurians and Zygons are 3-d prints. auction

Some of these figures for Dr Who are harder to find than good Star Wars figures!

There are some decent options for 28mm Doctor Who

Black Tree have a huge range, maybe not state of the art now, and there have been grumbles about slow service, but you dont have to resort to E Bay to get a Zoe.

Crooked Dice do a lovely selection, which I hope will grow.

You can also find 3d printed sets very economically on Etsy.

My 1970s [or is it 1980s?} UNIT troops are from the Gripping Beast Falklands range.

Ha, you mentioned my bugbear, Black Tree! I ordered about £120.00 GBP worth of Dr Who miniatures from them in October and despite several e-mails have not had a peep from them!
