Love that you're going back and playing some older titles, Colin! (more Runebound please!) Such a shame FFG lost the Gears license before we got any real expansions for it. To good just to go to waste. They should do a retheme and bring out a new game using this system.

Re-themes don't really work for great games, based on IPs or just great - as in Unfathomable (Battlestar Galactica), Heroes of Terrinoth (Warhammer Quest: TCG). There are plenty of great new games coming out re-using all existing mechanics (and bringing new ones) so just grab one of those (and possibly support a new design company).

Man, I kinda wish that I never sold off this game. It still holds up pretty well. I'm honestly surprised, that Epic didn't re-up their contract with FFG or haven't made a game themselves like Mechs and Minions was done by the studio. I live close to epic and my old neighbor works there and I know they play board games a lot at their studio. Great content as always!!!!

I had just watched your full collection video Colin and heard you rave about GoW board game so I had to come find your playhtough. I played a TON of Gears, the video game, in college. Probably my most played game. I only have gotten into tabletop this past year and was uncertain on this old game, I'm super stoked that it's one of your favorites. I am now on the hunt for it. I'd love to watch more playthroughs of yours on this game! I know you said you don't know much about the video game. That's okay. WHEN you do more playthroughs, can I offer that you use their "nick names" used in the video game. It was awkward hearing their full names read so much :P August Cole goes by "Cole", he's a loud energetic guy, often calls himself the "Cole Train", coming through! Dominic just goes by "Dom", close friend of the main character Marcus, who does go by Marcus. His commander sometimes calls him Phoenix, but "Marcus" is most used. If you play with Damon Baird, he goes by "Baird". Not trying to force you to learn it all, but man the nostalgia all rushes back and it's fun to hear their names used... but "Augustus" I think was only said once in disbelief in the game, was funny hearing you say it so much X) Loved the playthrough man. Thank you!

OK I can see that, but I mean defense goes from 0 to 2 per dice, so that is widely variable, there is no re-rolls in the game essentially, if you roll multiple omen symbols usually only one triggers so the other is blank.

I think this is Corey Konieczka's masterpiece. A streamlined miniatures game that's part board game, part skirmish game with hand management that makes every turn tense. With a card driven AI that is easy to follow. Each enemy type acting differently but without the player needing to memorize flow charts and icons.I still have it and will never sell it. I haven't found another game like this, I wish I could because FFG really tossed away a winner that was ripe for a big box expansion. If anyone knows a game that comes close to this one I'd love to hear about it.
