The remaining Battletech Clan Invasion stuff came in, along with Car Wars 6th Edition and High Noon, an Old West skirmish game.<\/p>\n
So, lots to keep me busy.<\/p>\n
—<\/p>\n
The second shipment of Battletech stuff came with a challenge coin for Wolf’s Dragoons, a mech mercenary company that I was somewhat familiar with from the old days (1980s) of Battletech.<\/p>\n
Or so I thought.<\/p>\n
I had no idea how much of the Clan Invasion revolved around the Dragoons.\u00a0 And now that I know the full story (Clan recon!), I’m more intrigued with the Dragoons, especially after learning that Barnes & Noble has a preorder for a Wolf’s Dragoons Assault Star Force Pack.<\/p>\n
—<\/p>\n
Car Wars 6th Edition is a welcome update of one of my favorite games from way back in the day.\u00a0 Autoduel remains one of the few computer games that I played all the way through.<\/p>\n
Quite an ordeal getting my copy of the game, having the core box sit at a FedEx facility for almost 2 weeks, and then only a couple of days wait for the second shipment.<\/p>\n
The game plays much like the original, without a lot of the bookkeeping since the cars are built from cards representing crew\/gear\/weapons\/armor.<\/p>\n
—<\/p>\n
High Noon is a fairly easy game to learn and play, as I was able to get through the rules and try a scenario within a couple hours of picking up the game.\u00a0 Game play is simplified compared to other similar games, but I’m a fan of Westerns, and game play feels somewhat cinematic, in the Western sense.\u00a0 I can’t wait until the Man With No Name inspired supplement comes out.<\/p>\n

Hoping to play these games with others soon, if not I’m content playing solitaire.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
