Post by: blacksmith on 13 September 2020, 10:46:43 AM
Hi,
I've just played the last mission and successfully finished the campaign 5150 Gaea Prime - First Defense with a total of 12 varied missions, all in 15 mm.
If you're interested you can view the all at my blog: http://javieratwar.blogspot.com/2020/06/gaea-prime-first-defense.html (http://javieratwar.blogspot.com/2020/06/gaea-prime-first-defense.html)

A few teaser pics from different missions:

Well, X-Com is my all time favourite PC game  :D
The game is played in the 5150 universe with Hishen, Razor, Graths, Zhuh-Zhuh and Xeogs, but I think it's easy to change them for the X-Com aliens.
There are alien research but the game is mainly about skirmishing.
Cheers,

Thank you! There is a full campaign of this new ruleset with 12 AARs in the blog. I finished the campaign and I don't feel like to start a new one right now. I feel like changing gears and do some fantasy for a change.
