Thanks for sharing. I think the one you did with Beast of War is better, because it shows you how the game plays and refutes the WI notion that the cards are too busy: YouTube link

There are a lot of good videos on YouTube if you go to YouTube and search for Albedo Combat Patrol.

This Week's New Releases for ACP164: The Albedo Miniatures Game Are the Iconic EW LARC VTOL Flyers!

The Enchawah Corporation created a range of standard rotorcraft that are used by many militaries, including the ILR, who used them in light transport, assault, and gunship configurations. These had the advantage of being cheap and easily replaceable, which was handy because the loss of the rotor on one side invariably led to the loss of the whole vehicle and usually the occupants as well.

Operationally, this vulnerability kept them to low altitudes, where the rotor shrouding acted to quieten the noise of the blades and reduce potential damage from foreign objects (and tree branches), as well as minimizing exposure to ground fire.

By the end of the war, advances in missile technology were beginning to supplant gunships in the air-support role, and the value of traditional rotorcraft for transport was becoming more obvious in terms of survivability.

Nevertheless, the Enchawah LARC series saw a lot of use in ILR, HomeGuard and civilian service, and can still be seen in second- or third-line roles, or on backwater planets.

The first model introduced was the LARC A. The utility of this resulted in larger, more powerful variants, the B, C and N models of which proved successful and are still in common military use. A models are still seen in civil, training and VIP transport roles.

The models are detailed multi-part resin kits.

Type A: RRP – £35.00 GBP
Type B/D/N: RRP – £40.00 GBP

The full range of ACP164 products are also available from Noble Knight Games in the U.S.A., and Tactics in Perth, Australia.

Any retailers interested in carrying the range can contact Mike at trade@acp164.com.
