    1. As Rich says below its just how the basics work. No event cards or orders or anything.

  2. Hopefully the second part will be more interesting as we get into some of the aspects which are unique to ADE...but felt we had to cover the basics first.
    In the advanced game play video we will see how the different classes affect tactical decisions, how the Leader's order can throw a cat amongst the pidgeons, and how Event Cards can be used to interrupt an opponents turn.

  3. You need to get a move on then mate! trouble is there's only so many words you can use for movement really.

  4. seems an interesting game, and some of the game mechanics are novel and look quite unique. but, speaking for myself as this is my mine requirement in a game, what is the solo-play potential? something to ask on their website i know, should i become interested in the game.

    Cheers for posting the video!

  5. Hi there! If you ask anything on our website you'll definitely get an answer, but as I'm here I will answer here.
    I know people DO play it solo, I personally feel that you can't use the card system properly that way, because you cannot take yourself by surprise if you know what card's both teams have. However, the expansion which I'm forever talking about writing will include rules for Sollus (essentially zombies), feral dogs, and possibly other creatures and factions which will be controlled semi-randomly by dice and cards for the purpose of being neutral in multiplayer games and allowing solo and co-operative games. I am also toying with the idea of writing solo/co-op specific scenarios in which Gangs can take on re-spawning State troops etc. So in summary, I would say there is definitely potential.
