My local gaming club recently decided to take a look in the Planetfall game system. And so a build-up campaign was set up. We started with a single Core Helix for everyone and i took the same faction as in Firestorm Armada: the lizards.
After building the models as fast as possible, last friday the first games were made and i got to play against the relthoza core helix.
The table was set up as shown in the picture below:
After some exchange of ranged fire, the units closed in and captured the objectivs. After two rounds the heavy relthoza walker and the unit of light tanks were forlorn hope, best of all already activated. Then the skydrops arrived and did shake up the whole battlefield. Some more CQB did happen and in the end the relthoza won with a 0/+1 victory.
I have to say, its a really fast paced game, having mechanics similar to Firestorm Armada, so just a little look-up in the rulebook for the details was needed.
Next on the list is to bring some paint on these wonderful moddels and to decide, which helix i should get next.
