I still haven't made up my mind as to which version I like. Love the countdown cards, don't like combat so much. Doubtless I'll end up playing with a mixture of the two ;-)Blaxklerichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06986635840718583767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1308328551615343287.post-29039900744928173402016-02-09T10:10:15.207-08:002016-02-09T10:10:15.207-08:00Cheers Andy.

I was lucky enough to get the play test version of 7TV2, but only skimmed them so far. Seems like they could be used for Masters of the Universe gaming quite easily, although the modding of existing templates seems a bit of a faff, compared to building from scratch in other games.Carrion Crowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12243490491778253955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1308328551615343287.post-5463380446013537292016-02-09T04:21:12.428-08:002016-02-09T04:21:12.428-08:00how did I miss this batrep? i can only blame the c...how did I miss this batrep? i can only blame the crazy night shifts.....<br /><br />what fun and its great to see some of your more recent paintings going into the game. <br /><br />I played my first trial game of 7TV2e with TMNT yesterday and will be prob be posting it out in a couple of weeks (when i work through the backlog of posts:-) ) Da Gobbohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09482323500538272232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1308328551615343287.post-63481198205764691042016-02-08T12:25:34.501-08:002016-02-08T12:25:34.501-08:00Thanks Fran.

Crazy mix is good in my books :-) I don't see any reason why you couldn't tweak some of the rules and fit some "ZombieTV" in with these, although those are a standalone rule-set in their own right. It'd certainly be worth a try though.Blaxklerichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06986635840718583767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1308328551615343287.post-43898516421324875192016-02-08T07:47:36.661-08:002016-02-08T07:47:36.661-08:00I wanted to try and cover as broad a range of the ...I wanted to try and cover as broad a range of the Stars and Co-Stars for this game as I could Hugh :-) And the fact any Star/Co-Star can use the gadgets does make them infinitely more handy - as Molly showed.

As a result things occasionally got bogged down as I had to double-check the rulebook to ensure I wasn't remembering the old stuff.<br /><br />I'm really looking forward to your overview, and be assured they'll be plenty more BatReps to come (including Act Two) as I'm hoping to try out each of the six episodes over the coming months.

As a consequence I had a good understanding of what was going on and understood the various movie references from the Countdown deck. Although the good guys clearly have the upper hand at the moment I know only too well that things can turn around very quickly. I'm very much looking forward to Act 2.<br />By the way, my next blog post will be an overview of the 7TV2e game.
