Battle Report: Roadway Rumble

After taking July off, our group reconvened for a game in August.  This is a new setting.  I've had this idea rattling around in my head ever since I purchased the Black Panther mine battle set.

Me (4 Frames & 15 Systems) = (5 Points per Asset) * (6 assets) = 30 points. (Cucurbita)

   Red Soldier -- 2Rd/1B/1G/1Y/2W + SSR.

   Green Soldier -- 2Rd/1B/1G/1Y/2W + SSR.

   Blue Soldier -- 2Rd/1B/1G/1Y/2W + SSR..

   Yellow Brawler -- 2Rh+d8/1B/1Gd8/2W + SSR.

Narbey (4 Frames & 16 Systems) = (3 Points per Asset) * (6 assets) = 18 points.  (Skitterers)
   Yellow Recon by Fire -- 2Ra+d8/2Y/2W.

   Red Soldier -- 2Rh/1B/1G/1Y/2W +SSR.

   White Soldier -- 2Rh/1B/1G/1Y/2W +SSR.

   Orange Soldier -- 2Rh/1B/1G/1Y/2W +SSR.

Occam's Spork (4 Frames & 16 Systems) = (3 Points per Asset) * (6 assets) = 18 points.

   Blue Spotting Bodyguard -- 2Rd/2Rh/1B/1Y/2W + SSR.
   Red Spotting Bodyguard -- 2Rd/2Rh/1B/1Y/2W + SSR.
   White Spotting Bodyguard -- 2Rd/2Rh/1B/1Y/2W + SSR.
   Orange Recon by Fire -- 2Ra/2Y/2W.

This is what the table looked like at the start of the game.

Here are several aftermath pictures.

Thoughts & Observations:

• This is a new table setting.
• I'm not sure I'm finished working on it yet.
• The other players liked it but I felt there wasn't enough actual Cover.
• It was just the right size for three players.  Any more and I would have had to add more baseplates.
• I bought some of the new Road Playmats for use in this game.
• I've been grooving on vehicles lately.
• The train fell off the tracks when damage was being applied to the cover.  We figured it was appropriate and left it where it was.
• Narbey's dice were pretty hot this game.
• Here's a picture of several of the vehicles I built for the game.
