A sneak peek at Fantasy Flight Games Runewars: a demo I ran today in my LFGS (and a Dutch scoop!)

I wish I were a glowworm
'cause glowworms 're never glum
How can you be grumpy
When the sun shines out yer bum?

I loath, LOATH, soccer.
But then you get mini's involved and there's immidiatly a small part in my mind that goes: 'That could actually be fun....'

I used to coach children, and also took the referee's exam, so I have a long-lasting relationship with the game. These days I only watch international  matches, I have absolutely no interest in national leagues, but I like Striker a lot. Fast and tense action, as soon as you get to grips with the basics.

Another game in progress, against my daughter (she's playing the blue team):

Brilliant!
 8) 8)

I absolutely loved 2nd edition at the time and have been considering getting hold of a copy for a while.

Is it as good as the rose-tinted memory goggles tell me it is?

It can be with the right group.  We're tossing out lots of game-breaking stuff and have introduced drawn-activations, etc.  We're revamping close combat and the psychic phase.  It's just as breakable as most games of its type, but if you all agree to not be lousy bastards it's a good time for sure.

Far more enjoyable (for me at least) than later editions.

Cheers for the response.
And I know what you mean about some 'broken elements, the psychic phase could be particularly nasty, if memory serves....

Mason,

I've been assembling a blog for 2nd edition 40K (and our subsequent revision of it - all in due time).  I've gone to great lengths to start collecting the best PDFs on the web, we're re-doing/updating datafaxes into PDF form, and I'm creating rules cheat sheets, etc.  Worth a look - hope for it to become a treasure trove of content in the future.

Set up for tomorrow's SofBH game. The Magnificent Seven Dwarfs are on the way home, with booty taken in battle with the Orcs of the Splintered Moon. Sellswords and adventurers under Baron Hardupp's banner have caught the scent. While the Knights of the Vale are always up for adding to their treasure hoard...

Played Mage Knight the past two week. Teaching a new gaming friend how to play used Rebellion set exclusively. It was like travelling back in time  :D
The good news he loved the game so it will become a part of our regular games. Good day!!!
