It may be we use the British Forces as the 'Zombies' as my painted collection of them far exceeds my Middle Eastern Alliance. So we could use Land Rovers as 'Runners' and Saxons as 'Fatties'...Blaxklerichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06986635840718583767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1308328551615343287.post-23069472929196983142015-12-31T15:08:18.903-08:002015-12-31T15:08:18.903-08:00By all that's holy, yes, please.By all that's holy, yes, please.Daft Phullyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06351331139611796133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1308328551615343287.post-59476716229063112832015-12-31T08:23:11.806-08:002015-12-31T08:23:11.806-08:00Hello there, we just tweaked a couple of the item ...Hello there, we just tweaked a couple of the item cards tbh, so that the axe and crowbar become local friendlies who allow the British to enter an enemy settlement (which were treated as buildings otherwise) and the weapon names were renamed to represent bazookas and sniper teams to better fit the genre and provide a reason as to why the British could fight at range. We plan to play a second game including technicals (runners), so I'll try and include a better explanation of the mechanics if you'd like?Blaxklerichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06986635840718583767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1308328551615343287.post-21668201894638009152015-12-31T07:22:04.458-08:002015-12-31T07:22:04.458-08:00And if I wanted to play this, what would I need to...And if I wanted to play this, what would I need to change?

I'm delighted you enjoyed it :-)<br /><br />This really was an incredibly simple conversion, and one that almost certainly means I'll be painting up some technicals for my Middle Eastern Alliance (Runners) as well as some armoured vehicles (Fatties) in the New Year. The board seemed to work quite well too... and was a tester for my "Doctor Who & The Seeds Of Doom" game. I just need to make some more pieces for a larger area and it should be good to go. Merry Christmas my friend. Blaxklerichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06986635840718583767noreply@blogger.com
