Subject: First DSII Game
OK so this evening after a small WH40K game I coerced my brother-in-law to play a game of DSII with me. We left out a lot of details in order to learn the mechanics, but we decided that we must DEFINITELY add cotton wool to destroyed vehicles... by the end of the game, that's all there appeared to be on the table! Important things learned: having all "Effective Signature: 5" vehicles makes shooting a breeze, and a lack of terrain to hide really big tanks in makes for a quick, bloody game. No real questions popped up that couldn't be easily handled by the rulebook, so maybe next time I can force him into a game of Stargrunt and we can say we have played two REAL sci-fi wargames.
