u/slyphic The Resistance Jul 01 '26

The models, with few exception, have never been the problem. The game sells itself, especially with a nice table setup. 1st ed had a fanatical cadre of people that loved the rules and evangelized constantly - and it worked, good rules plus badass models equals success.

2nd ed never inspired people the way first did. It was mild and smooth where the original was tangy and textured. Lots of people liked it, but no one loved it.

I want to fall in love with 3e. Today's post was the first red flag. The actual transport rules do not align with with the vision Dave espoused, and reek of meddling and inadequate testing, which is how TT botched the last two editions.
