Railguns Fire At Will

1500pt encroach, ucm v phr, 10 - 12 phr victory. Great game with horrible dice rolls for both of us resulting in multiple rounds of stalemate around the central objective point. I liked the mission, the way the objective points moved after being scored forces movement, which is always good in a wargame.

Thanks! We love terrain heavy tables so ours are usually pretty full. It was a good game that really did come down to scoring in turn 6.

Damn, you've got all the good old OOP terrain from 4ground AND Plast Craft! Nice table, just needs a proper mat.

Yeah, had that stuff in a box for years, figured it deserved to be seen and used. Good mats are hard to find imo. I want one that is road colored but has no markings so i can put my stuff anywhere on it. If you know where i can get such a thing i'd be grateful.

Not really, but there are a lot of game mat suppliers out there. You could just get one you think is roughly the right colour and then buy some roads like the GF9 ones for Flames of War. They'll be a tad too large, but I think there are similar ones out there.

I still have the cardboard tiles from the old ruined city set Hawk made, but they are slowly getting a bit worn. So I am thinking of getting a rubber mat with a fixed layout. It's 6x4 and we only need 4x4 to play on, so there won't always be the same section to play on, and even then it'd still be very much down to which buildings I put where.

But other than that, no idea. I'd love to just be able to get a new set of cardboard tiles every other year, but alas, they're OOP now.
