I have just ordered the starter set for this. I have read the core rules and watched some battle reports, and it looks like a game I would like.
Most of my background is Ancients and Fantasy, my current games are Conquest, Carnevale (love the game, the miniatures and the setting), Hail Caesar if I could get people to play.
I also love Infinity, but the seems like a "lifetsyle" game and I no longer have the desire for such complexity, nor the competitive environment.
Other then Infinity, havent played any Sci-fi (Painted a whole SoB army for 40k but never played – like the minis, hate rules). Have not played any Modern games.
So – BLKOUT. Its a short game, the core rules seem appealing and in any case I will love to paint the miniatures, they look gorgeous. The factions seem well thought out. A small US company run by veterans adds to the appeal for me.
Has anyone played and can give their opinions/thoughts?
