I love the idea, but for me the infos are just too little to buy anything...

Yeah, I've seen a few release things about this and none of it has actually told me anything about what you get in the boxes etc.

Still trying to get hold of a copy of the VSF rules first

I played Bob's late-night demo game at Cold Wars. It was a lot of fun -- barely-in-control careening around pylons plus shooting at anyone foolish enough to be in front of you. At the end I had a great come from behind run and was lined up with a clear dash for the finish line only to heroically fail when another scudder made a revenge ram (or long shot, I can't remember which) which sent me spinning off the course.

The ships were great (and perfect for any Martian campaign). They held 5 figures and a nifty front mounted gun.

Basically the game was a bit chariot racing, a bit air combat. He had some nice ship card templates, special ability cards, clear plastic maneuver rulers for turns and slips. I assume there was a rulebook, but since Bob was running it, there wasn't much need for us to look at it. The rules were simple to pick up so you could focus on play.

Sounds cool. I really hope the VSF stuff that Brigade do becomes easier to get in the UK at some point.
