Had the honor of play testing the Beta rules for a skirmish game called Verrotwood, composed by Michael Crutchett, A dark skirmish world of strangeness and horror, Cults fight for the place in the world encountering terrors and horrors as they hope to survive to reach the goals of there Dark lords.

The Beta gives the basic rules and 2 cults and a scenario to try out, played on a 3x3 table in a wooded close confine with many dangers lurking and seeking there end. the game was to get 6 objectives while trying to avoid a hateful ghost who would scare the life out of you. each cult was of four characters of simple stat lines, the combat using a D10 dice pool which to me works great for the game play. Only 4 turns of furious action using a random activation system , I used blank playing cards with names and the ghost on then shuffled and drawn as the characters activated.

The game; for me its a great skirmish game so far, the combat is fast and furious, the scenario plays well and the horrors make it a very fun scenario to play. I will play more to help the play test. Good fun. be safe my friends.
