Walk on Hyperion City - Part 2
More photos of the February game played up at Dragon’s Lair in Austin, TX
All in all the game was good and we played a scenario of our own making instead of the standard tournament rules. For me I prefer the storytelling aspect of miniature gaming and just hanging out with friends to have a good time. When the same is too serious or your whole objective is to beat the pants of your opponent the game becomes broken. Anyone can figure out the math to pick the best army min-max a force (big deal). Even though we played balanced forces in this game - I’m a believer that this never happens in real combat - playing unbalanced, event based games and answering the question, “what would you do?” is quite enjoyable (I think).
This month’s game has given me a lot of ideas to noodle on. The first is to try our a new victory condition rules for pickup games.
More on that later…
Look for more pictures of the game from Kris coming up soon.
