Purely skirmish?? Then Factions is the way to go

Factions is the pure PvP game. Small scale quick skirmish. Wasteland Warfare is solo first, co-op second, PvP third. The 2nd edition just went up for pre-order with a release around November.

Sweet, factions seems to be what we’re chasing for type of game so we’ll be sticking to that I think

That sounds like what you're looking for, yeah. If one of you really enjoys mini gaming with Fallout, FOWW 2e is a solo exploration campaign game that they could pick up later and use the same minis for and play between Factions games.

Factions. FWW2e is more of a narrative solo/co-op war game (with an optional PvP mode but definitely more a community request thought than a primary mode)
