enforcers-plague Warpath Firefight: The Other Sci-Fi Game from England

Ussskip

I decided to do a write up of this game after my first two games played. I also watched a third. The most amazing thing is they occurred one after another in a space of five hours. This is a new game to my group. We backed it on Kickstarter.

We went whole hog, full bore, so to speak. Not content to just kill the other player we decided to play scenarios as the designers intended. The armies used were Marauders (Orc like race), Galactic Co-Prosperity Sphere (Normal Human Soldiers), and Forge Fathers (Dwarves). I was maneuvered into playing Forge Fathers. Not a choice I would have normally made. After my two games I love the stunty little bastids’. We played at 1250 point suggested level.

In this Figure Forge Matt assembles an Eisenkern Stormtrooper with his rifle. The Eisenkern Stormtroopers are available from Warlord Games and Dreamforge Games.

These models have a lot of pieces but they go together nicely.

Space Empires: Close Encounters is the first expansion to Space Empires: 4X.Alien races meet up close as they encounter each other for the first time in ship boarding engagements and planetary invasions with different types of ground troops. The strengths and weaknesses of each alien empire are brought out with roughly 20 unique racial abilities. The expansion takes advantage of the streamlined nature of the game system to add more technology and cool sci-fi things in very simple ways. While it is designed to be used as a whole, the expansion is modular and players can choose to use only the parts that they like.
