Victory Decision: Future Combat "Rival Species" released
« on: April 07, 2014, 03:58:51 PM »


Rival Species is the first Expansion for Victory Decision: Future Combat and focusses on genetically engineered alien threats.
Some alien races engineer and grow all of their technology organically. This could be due to viewing mechanical technology as blasphemy or the species could be a predatory culture with no higher goals than the propagation of their species and the destruction of any other life that could pose a threat.
A Bio-Engineered force is not governed by a strict military structure in the way other races are. The group intelligence of the Bio-Engineered Aliens allows them to integrate a huge amount of hordes until their armies become immense forces, crushing any resistance that crosses its path.

Rival Species brings you a complete army list, new Special Rules like an additional Overwatch Action, new Psi Powers, new Abilities and Weapon Features.

A copy of the Victory Decision: Future Combat rulebook is necessary to fully use the content of this book.

As with our previous books you get a full colour version with many high quality pictures of fully painted models and a mostly B&W printer friendly version.
You can get the eBook as usual via the Wargame Vault for $6.74.

Below are some sample pages from the book.

Just bought it. Unfortunately Wargame Vault servers are barely working and it's downloading with the speed of a dead snail.

Thanks folks, the book is already doing fine!

As one playtester said, "you can field everything with this list, from Starship Trooper Arachnids, Tyrandis or Alien Movies".

For me the most fun part is the crossover potential.
WWII US Army vs Mutant Rocketworms in the Arizona desert etc.

purchased.
Now to find time to read the rules...
Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons,
for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.

Same for me, while I painted some of my Sedition Wars humans, the Strain is more or less untouched...
