But there again you can't run the risk of them all being bunched up because if they break, you'll potentially lose soldiers trampling over one another (as you can only have three troopers per tile except for the Clearing).<br /><br />Great minds clearly think alike as "Doctor Who & The Dog Soldiers" may well be coming to a blog near you soon ;-) I'm also already looking at my own tiles for the game for different environments and containing traps etc. Happy to share if this ever gets off the ground if anyone is interested?

From the various play-tes...Very interesting, Simon. From the various play-tests I've watched (YouTube) the rules appear very simple and hugely weighted in the favour of the baddies. But for some reason this appeals, as you want to 'beat' the game. As usual, you've highlighted the versatility of a set of rules for something other than the 'official' setting. <br />I'm thinking that all you really need for this is the rules, as all other components could be proxies or homemade... So doing either "The Descent" with cavers trying to get back to the surface before eaten by ghouls or "Dog Soldiers" with squaddies and werewolves in a Scottish forest. If some enterprising soul decided to publish a set of alternative tiles as a downloadable PDF (caverns, woods, etc.) Similar to the battle maps you can download, I reckon they'd get a fair few sales...Carrion Crowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12243490491778253955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1308328551615343287.post-51900370420571734502016-07-14T22:36:14.953-07:002016-07-14T22:36:14.953-07:00Thanks Dai.
