A peek at some pages from the forthcoming rules, link shamelessly nicked from TGN

Yup, looks great.  I'll be picking this up at the Recruits convention in a few weeks.

To be honest I am not too excited about the ruleset as its been previewed for months and even given awards but its not actually been released yet!

All the best!

Seriously?

An Award for what?

Creative story-telling?

Until it is actually for sale, it's just potential vaporware.  Unlikely but not impossible.  Or it could turn out to be a dud.  Again, unlikely, but after wargaming since 1959 but I fear the words "new and Improved," and "Edition X.0" myself.

Seriously, an award for a non-product?

Gracias,

The Tomorrow's War that won awards etc. was a supplement for Force on Force, released by the Ambush Alley guys as a pdf.

The hardback version of Tomorrow's War, produced by Osprey, is an entirely standalone game, incorporating additional material – rules, scenarios, artwork etc. It has not (to my knowledge, anyway), received (or even been nominated for) any awards. It would be nice if it did, though.

The advance copies came in the other week – I've got one on my desk as I type – so it definitely exists!
