I have done much better now, I was confusing myself a bit when drawing chits and what I needed to do (Remove suppression, remove speed etc.) Two player games are smoother when you're not trying to remember what you needed to do at the beginning of the turn. My kids are brutal on this, wiping out half my men, haha!!
It is really fun! I thought I would have trouble playing both sides, but I just tell the story, I don't have favorites so I feel upset when things don't work out as planned on both sides. Haha! Just play to the best of your ability and it can be pretty exciting!
Thank you for commenting! It's a shame this one doesn't see much action. The plan is to eventually make a campaign and see if a squad of Soldiers/Marines can make it through to the end. If I get attached to them, it'll be harder to order them to do insane tasks. Haha!
I just watched it! It's nice to see these games coming out and seeing some daylight! Haha! I'm slowly learning the advanced rules, but the basic game is so easy that I can set it up and play a quick game and then take it down within an hour. I am very excited to get into advanced though! I love the great tournament letters you found! It must have been amazing to see these games being discussed and relevant at the time! I'm so glad I discovered this game!
Great start> I hope you achieved some of your ambitions for advancing your mastery of Firepower in the last couple of years.

Ineffective ambush
I don't get how you orient the status chits differently for OPFOR and BLUFOR
You’ve motivated me to dig out my old copy and see how she looks. I used to really enjoy it, but I like your idea of playing both sides.

Nicely done William. Thanks for posting. We don't see much about this game unfortunately.

This is much better than the weird woke video posted on Firepower years ago by a woman who had no real interest in playing the game. Thank you.l
William, I shot and uploaded a video to my channel, Stoogies Wargames, this morning for you to look at.
