Science Fiction Rules Reviews
Note, each set is accorded a value for money rating. 1 = terrible; 10 is extremely good - must have.
Positive Points
These SF squad level rules give a fast-paced, fun game in an evening. Unit sizes are around 6-12 models, with a typical army being comprised of 6-8 units, but these rules also work quite well for much larger battles and multiple players. The turn sequence keeps both sides involved, as each of their units is activated alternately, and given choices from a very simple list of orders. Heroes and vehicles/robots are also included.
Negative Points
These rules were written for use with only the Void range of miniatures – although other miniatures could be used, there can be problems identifying models. Although the basic rules are sleek and simple, most models/units/weapons have a special rules that need remembering and looking up - this can slow the game down for new players.
Overall value for money: 7
