Just read the whole AAR set.  Awesome!  Sounds like a good to great game which I need like a hole in the head.  Maybe after some Khurashan  arachnids,  some of Gringo's Spanish SAW, and the remainder of my rapidly disappearing, (almost empty queue,)  buy list (oh, and paying for those 3 KS figures,) I can pick it up.  Hey I have until DEC 1, 2016 before retirement!  it's possible.

Great blow-by-blow feedback.  I really like AARs that do that.

Gracias,

Glenn

Many thanks Glen

I prefer offering a detailed battle report so people can really see the action - although this one (at 10,000 words and 100 pictures) was probably the most ambitious one I have done.

Glad you liked it.

The next one will be the Imperial Guard cleaning out the corridors of Research Station Orion and discovering something dark lurking within them.
