Title: Coastal Patrol - 1st game.
Post by: Asienieboje on 21 August 2013, 07:13:48 PM
Last thursday we tryed in our club the set from TooFATLardies called Coastal Patrol. Its quite nice. I described the game on my blog and put some thoughts about the rules:

I always enjoy your blog, great report as always.  I should point out that it isn't actually a TFL rule set, but it was a set we published in a Special submitted by one of the Lardy gang in the US of A.  I must admit that I have never even played it - but I would love to!  I really like the idea of E-Boat MTB actions.  Great fun in the Channel.

Rich, I was told that it was Lardies game, or I missed something... Anyway it is quite good set of rules and you need to try it some time.

Very cool, an unusual kind of game!

It's all a bit mad.  The boats seem to have a life expectancy measured in minutes rather than hours.

Great fun though.

What models were you using?

A mixture of Skytrex and PT Dockyard I seem to remember.  They were borrowed from another club member - I was the boat with the 4" gun, which was fun.  It was hilarious to play and lots of laughs all round.  Bart just refused to sink no matter how much he was hit.

Adriatic is even better than the channel as you can have USA and the Italians in it too.
