BFG: The Board Game (sorta)
« on: May 07, 2015, 11:57:07 am »
Looks like FFG is putting together a board game that captures some elements of space combat in the 41st Millenium:

Here is another link with more pics:

Overall, it looks like it is a sort of mini-campaign thing, with both space and land battles included. Not sure how I missed this before! Color me interested :)

Sounds...complicated. But interesting. You'll have to let us know how it is!

I will! I think this one is looking too good to pass up. Russ from the D6G has some pics up of his copy, and the components look amazing:

Geeze, I need this too...  Maybe we should all be buying our stuff in bulk to get a discount.  Is there a Costco that carries all the stuff we want?
