Since I haven't had a lot of time to play games, I have listening to the Tabletop Game Talk Podcast a lot. A friend sat in one week and I have been hook. They got me looking at Kickstarter a lot this week and I found a game that I found fascinating:
Rockets & Rayguns combines ship combat with minis combat in a way that I can't believe no one has thought of before. I know it's a board game. But it looks like a minis game on a grid and you know how much I like that.
The various races look like fun and would be a fun painting project.
Here is a link: www.kickstarter.com/projects/idwgames/r ... escription
Take a look and if you want to play it down the road I am likely going to back it.

Re: Rayguns & Rocketships Kickstarter
Interesting concept.
Not sure if it's something I'd be interested in playing, but let us know how it comes out.

Aesthetically, it's not really my bag, but if you pick it up, I would happily try it out!

Re: Rayguns & Rocketships Kickstarter
Ended up funding at $80K. The publisher threw in the figure that would have unlocked at $82k. Expect to see it i. November and will start pestering people to play with me shortly thereafter.
Hopefully I will make some game nights before then.

Right on! Feel free to set up a game on an alternate night that works for you.

I saw them at GenCon and would guess 28 to 32 mm.

Re: Rayguns & Rocketships Kickstarter
Thank you. If they are 28mm I would be interested in the figures for some pulp gaming.
