We’ve seen mini-games before from Games Workshop, but never anything like this. Each of the THREE new Stormbcloud attack box sets has their very own version of the 88 page rulebook for playing the new game. 88 pages… that’s like a mini supplement in each box folks, plus it’s chockful of what looks to be full CGI art taken from the model designs themselves and re-rendered for this supplement!
It also includes datasheets for each flyer that these factions can take, even if it doesn’t come in the box (Sorry no FW versions, except the Vendetta on the APP!)
The game itself looks fairly involved with similar but yet different rules as the Death from the skies dog-fighting section. Think of this like a cross between 40k, DFTS, the old Forge World Aeronautical Imperialis game, oh with a splash of X-Wing Miniatures thrown in there as well.
Either way it’s a solid buy if not for the savings on the kits (on average $20), but also for this amazing supplement inside each one as well.
