The long awaited book by Daniel Mersey and Richard Cowen has finally come out. The latest in something referred to as the "Rampant Series" which is a series of games all using the same basic rules as found in the original Lion Rampant. This one takes the action all the way into the not-so and oh-so distant future. As such, it has two of my favorite elements in a wargame.... model agnostic and base agnostic! I am so here for this!
Osprey must have been pretty confident that they had a winner on their hands, as they skipped straight to hard cover with this one. Unlike the tight, original Rampant sets of rules in their nice 64 page blue book styles, this one is an indulgent 192 pages!
I am interested to see where this one mimics the Rampant series, and where it treads new ground. I probably won't go over the entire Rampant system here, but instead cover some of the key changes or updates made for this book from the core rules. If you are interested in the base rules, you can find that in my Lion Rampant review.
So, power up the main hyper drive, set your phasors to maximum carnage, and get ready to blast off into the stars!!!!!!!!!
