Bundle Offer for Attack Vector: Tactical

Darth,

Check out David Murray's posts. He and his wife started with a much more complicated scenario that I would ever use for a beginner, and they got through with no real problem.

Why? Well, David followed the instructions in the rulebook for learning the game: sit down with the components and follow along through the tutorials. Too many people decide that they don't need to do that--they can just read through the rules once and then try a game with their eight-player group. It's just going to be a disaster.

Make sure that you know exactly what you're doing before you try teaching anybody else. Don't use projectiles for the first game. And play a one-on-one game to start. Big groups cause problems both for teaching and because players have to figure out a whole bunch of "which of my weapons can so who and where are they going to hit my armor and if I thrust do I get closer?" problems each turn. It's overwhelming.

Remember, you can download the complete tutorial, with the components that you need, and see for yourself.
