I think this was our last game. I took the Imperial Army against Grove and Blue in a quick game of Lopez's Rogue Trader, Black Ops mash up. Rogue Ops.
I got caught flat footed in shitty cover and didn't activate at the right time, except for the parting shot at the transport. The card activation adds a nice amount of friction.
Staff Sgt Olivia needs to weigh her options, what is the price of failure? I just got caught in the open during a string of Ork activations. Rogue Ops can be fickle like that.
Great looking!
ReplyDeleteThanksMichal.
DeleteLovely looking game Sean! They Lopezs' IG yeah? They look nice :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic table to play on too!
Awesome Sean :)
Thanks Mr. P, yeah Lopez's Imperial Army ;).
DeleteYuuuus! That ork charge out of the bronco was the best. I totally thought I was gonna get gunned down. So glad I pulled it off. LOL
ReplyDeleteYeah airborne, not what I expected after setting the building on fire. The flip side of getting all your own activations in a row is that you get caught with your dick in your hand.
DeleteAnother great looking game and looked like a top weekend all round!
ReplyDeleteIt was Riot, definitely the highlight of the year.
DeleteReading through this I had to look back at Rogue Ops. I've been thinking card based activation would do a lot to improve RT, or even the StarGrunt II mashup I sometimes use. Looks like a great game. Popping smoke? On a Rogue Trader table? I love it!
ReplyDeleteThanks Composer. Card activation is a great way to add friction to the game and break away from the slog that igo ugo can become.
DeleteExcellent, looks like it was a fun game to play.
ReplyDeleteThanks Merijn, it was fun.
ReplyDeleteLooks fun!
ReplyDeleteLoving the olde figs that you guys used.
Orks back then were a little more serious
Thanks Dai, yeah the guys had a bunch of cool older figures. The Olivia figure was brand new though. She was the BOYL 17 figure.
