What a Tanker test run.

Set up a board and tested out the rules for What a Tanker tonight. I like them, and I think they are going to work well for the big group game planned for this weekend.

The rules are pretty simple but give players opportunities to make their own choices and put their own stamp on the game, which is just how I like it. Of course, the dice play a big part, but I think we can live with that!





This was a five vehicle solo game, and although it would usually be a bit onerous to run five vehicles at once, it was easy to get into the swing of things and the situations that came up were quite interesting. I think the terrain will be good to play on, and I hope that people will enjoy the game.

I was also pleased to see that the vehicles looked the part on the table. All in all, a satisfying trial run!

    1. Haha, just looked the reference up, Bill. Could well be. He was a pretty haunted tank by the time the Panther had mauled him, I can tell you!

  4. A fine looking game. Many of the replay examples that I have seen on the web have gone for five or so vehicles. Nice to see a project come to fruition.
