Good shout outs so far, infinity are very “anime” thinking more Blade runner than ghost in the shell😉 Anvil do some great stuff and think I could make some good contenders from the regiments range🙂. Was looking at some of the void line with some head swaps as well......keep the suggestions coming 🙂🙂👍🏻

Where can tou buy the Merc civilians? Can't find them on their site.

Sorry to get their civilian miniatures you have to buy the Mercs: Recon game boxes. I wished they would sell the civilians online individually.

AWu,
Thanks for the comparison photo.

Ah.

Thanks for the info. What an odd way to make them available...

Don’t forget the Rezolution line.

Earther,

Yeah,

The civilians are an integral part of the Mercs:recon game. I would assume that Megacon doesn't think anyone would want to spend money on just civilians.

Here is website that shows the different civilian minis.

@AWu You might want to know that's an old Infinity miniature you have there, those guys are now tiny compared to the current range of minis. I have some of those stock Chinese models myself, so if I get a chance tonight I can take a picture of the newer minis with the stock Chinese models if you want.

I dropped from Infinity very early so I have only 1st edition miniatures

Those look a lot better than I remember them. I might have spoken too soon.

Maybe I have over-generalised. The only Osprey game I have played so far is Frostgrave and that system has seen lots of additional publications since the core-rulebook and apparently there are further publications planned. Hoping that Reality´s Edge will do equally well

I'm not bashing the idea, but frostgrave is definitely the exception at the moment. I would love to have a cyberpunk game like this do as well or better!

Cyberpunk (any Sci-fi) - Frostgrave style would be very cool.

Simple and playable with some depth decision and campaign rules with lots of scenarios that are again simple ut fun and challenging. This is a hit recipe.

But most of the Osprey games are one shot publications.. Event very good ones like Ronin.

In Her majesty name was an exception with 3 book but Ive never seen it played.

I never played "This is not a Test" but people keep telling me how great it is which is why I am quite optimistic regarding Reality´s Edge.

Would like to see more information on the game though

Does anyone here know whether there is some official info apart from the announcement?

If you’re looking for a solid Sci-Fi Frostgrave alternative, I highly suggest looking into Star Breach immediately: starbreach.com. Second edition just dropped and it’s solid. Free ruleset and supplements. 20 factions. Model agnostic. Massive scenarios book for 2-6 player games. Campaign and Tournament modes. It’s Frostgrave in space, but better. And free.

I have high hopes for this. I think it's written by the same guy who wrote This Is Not A Test.To my mind that was one of the better sets of small scale skirmish rules out there. I like the cyberpunk genre so will certainly be getting a copy (assuming I don't get consistently told it is a turkey).

From what I have seen hacking is a very important part of the game.

Salcor

Interested to see what hacking entails in the actual game mechanics. Would like to see something baked into it other than "roll a 6+ to hack this or that". Feels too much like a spell or some such to me.
