You are probably familiar with these rules, but I thought I'd drop the link anyway.  I think .45 Adventure would work great as well, particularly as you say for more Adventure y scenarios.

The new series, which started over here in, I think 2005, was written in a way that you didn't have to know the whole 45 years of back story.

Jolly spiffing of the lads, isn´t it! ::

I recall German TV (Rupert Murdoch´s VOX station, to be precise) showed some classic episodes back in the 90s, on weekday morning slots, wham-bam during school hours when one couldn´t watch it! Dang!

I have the old Harlequin/Black Tree rulebook.  Is the this an updated version of that, or a totally new game?

Generally good sorts the BBC.  BBC Wales has done a great job with the new Series.  Well worth a watch.

It's not heavy, it's just fun adventure stuff.

Yes, BBC WALES! Sorry, couldn't let that slip, being both Welsh and a HUGE Dr Who fan. ::

I played my first game of this last Sunday. I was the Master, accompanied by Sea Devils.

I was narrowly beaten by the Dr and UNIT after the Master headed out to sea in a hovercraft, exactly as he did in the episode! :twisted:

I had never even seen the rules before I started playing, but very easy to pick up.

A hugely entertaining game, the highpoint of which was 5 Unit troopers in a firing line failing to get a single hit on a lone Sea Devil.

The Welsh don't get credit for much, but Russell T Davies (a Welshman) and BBC Wales (a whole load of Welshfolk) gave me back my Doctor Who.  So "Cymru am byth".  

I was really worried at one time that the dire American version was going to be the return of Doctor Who.  Sylvester looked great as the Doctor at the start of that one, then it all went downhill.

I know it's difficult to tell.

Now there's lovely.

Everything that´s got dragons is lovely. We´ve got to contend with poultry, overweight if we´re lucky:

We have a flower.....




With apologies to our French members........

And three lions. Don't forget the lions. While they're not doing so well at the minute, they have seen off the Eagle a couple of times, and in another sport the Kangaroo and Emu (though very infrequently).





That's Coeur de Lion's arms that is. So kind of French, too, when you think about it.

UNIT Soldiers now.

After careful consideration I've decided to stick with the Red hats.

Good call. Red hats are so much better.

And on the flag issue, we got:

This is a totally new game.  It has high production value, covers both the classic and new series and is a free download with a bunch of scenarios and more on the way.  I've played it as both a generic Sci-fi game and for Doctor Who games and it works very well.  Check them out and see what you think.

I recently played a Unit vs Sea Devils scenario and got my rear end handed to me by the Master and the Sea Devils.  I did have Sgt. Benton take out a Sea Devil in hand to hand before he went down though, that was fun.
