Some impressions from Paul‘s (Tikkifriend) BSG game at Doncaster.
Mission goal for the Colonials to blow up an Cylon outpost on a planetoid.
Dave spiced up the game with one heavy raider model.

The cylons won the game due to some heavy target failures of the colonials.
Not able to hit a moon, eve if it fills out the whole horizon... :erk:

That heavy raider bucked against its nickname (The "Turkey"). Guns are a bit naff but it still got 2 kills - being a tough little fellow that can ride through collisions helps :)
The death ride of the Colonial kamikaze squadron into the moon was an unexpected move!

Gave the info to the Galactica, that we found the Cylon Resurrection Sh... Box. :slysmile:
Loosing this game was just a tactical maneuver...

How very dare you! :p I’ll have you know I flew all the way through an asteroid belt and didn’t hit one.

Best bit of asteroid navigation I ever saw :D
I must point two extremely well designed missions:
1) Steve's Swiss Cheese & Chocolate: perfectly painted minis, nicely prepared mats with Alp summits -> great atmosphere!
2) Tim's Team Death Race: awesome idea with pairs and fine rule about shooting from 2+ altitude level. Definitely :thumbsup:

Well Daniel if my game didn’t have a snappy title beforehand, it certainly has now :thumbsup:

Despite the fact, that we failed the BGS mission, and didn’t shot down a single plane or bomber the weend (sunk some RN ships and bombed a Czech fort), I was finally called to the nearly empty prize table.
Was intersted in a folded Wings of Glory paper mat, but the I spotted this little object and made it mine:

That's great indeed!
Looks like a great time, indeed! Lots of cool stuff going on here, not least of which is that nifty prize you took home, Sven!:sAprvd: Toastertastic;)
All the best,
Matt

I've seen this on the Forum somewhere, but I can't find it now. The model is from a 3D print file, and if I can get to that, I might be able to fake the schematic drawings from the source. Help?

Ask Mr. Manley. He donated it to the prize table.
