So, I missed a rule. Anytime you kill an enemy, you also gain 2 Victory Points. So maybe I would have been bodacious after all 😂

[@RicBret]

Thanks for this clear and expedient example of game play. Much appreciated!

[@crippledfoxgaming]

What a great little game. It's perfect for my work breaks. Thanks for this demo.

[@tabletopforone]

Thank you so much for watching! I do hope you enjoy the game. And I agree, great for lunch breaks.

[@markdandridge4433]

What a interesting idea and game. I can see the give and take. Each decision is meaningful and can be mitigated.

[@tabletopforone]

Yeah, it really is a good little game. Lot of decisions to make, and the luck of the draw isn't that bad. Thanks for watching, Mark

[@abrslam]

What a cool little game.

[@tabletopforone]

Yeah, it really is. My first plays were ok, but it's growing on me.

[@j.v.1093]

Great playthrough! I love the minis.

[@tabletopforone]

Thanks Janet 🙂 Did you order it or play it yet?

[@j.v.1093]

@@tabletopforone I’m waiting for it to arrive along with a couple more expansions for Iron Helm. 🤦🏽‍♀️

[@tabletopforone]

I hope you get it soon. I think you will enjoy it.

[@tabletopforone]

Note: I am unsure if Targetloc mod activates if you spend 4 ammo. I played the game as though it did, but I have not yet received clarification on that mod.

[@RicBret]

Good question. I asked it on the BGG forum, perhaps we'll get an answer from the author. If I see one, I'll post it here.

[@Board_Halfling]

I like the theme and the gameplay really cool

[@tabletopforone]

Yeah, great theme, and I think the color scheme works really well. Thanks for watching!

[@Board_Halfling]

My copy just arrived tonight and have already played it 4 times I love it. Barely made it to the end one time by luck. Would love to see more play throughs of small compact games like this.

[@tabletopforone]

Glad you enjoy it! I will continue to have small box playthroughs. I have a playthrough of Forage recorded, the latest small box game by Mark Tuck (Orchard, and Grove).

[@andrewshaw3703]

I need this game 😁

[@tabletopforone]

If it helps, I believe it's still on sale at The Game Crafter 🙂

[@bryB1]

Don't forget that you gain 2 VP every time you defeat an enemy (bottom of pg 14 rule card).

[@tabletopforone]

Thank you. I did miss that. Maybe I would have been bodacious after all 😆

[@bankingonmoney8224]

Interesting game. So what would happen if you have no fuel at the end of the round with the deck empty? Great playthrough!🎉

[@tabletopforone]

Thanks! If you have no fuel at the end of the round, the raiders move two spaces towards you. It's to simulate the idea of you have to spend time trying to scrounge up some fuel.
