JDMG BatRep in the Cursed Earth

[cheetor]

I played JDMG recently with a pair of friends on some post apocalyptic terrain that I am currently working on.

A large Judge force was sent to crush the early stages of a Zombie uprising by killing a pair of Zombie Masters before things got out of hand.

The report is on my blog if any of you Dreddheads are interested

ahhh sho3box yes. I read this yesterday before you posted it here. Pretty good. It shows how quickly things can go, and how easily a team member goes down, Whether minion or not. Also showed the usefulness of riot judges. Good report overall.

Thanks.

Also showed the usefulness of riot judges.

My experience of riot foam equipped Riot Judges is that that they are great. Riot Foam is scary to be on the receiving end of. In rules terms its very efficient, as it should be.

Being equipped with a respirator makes a figure immune though, which doesnt make sense

Of course that is always a simple fix of everyone agreeing it shouldn't.
The staff has been good about taking our opinions and sights into consideration, so the rule should only be in writing what, another 2 months or so till the next revision.

Naturally. But its no harm having it it writing

They certainly have been fantastic in that regard. While writing a rulebook cannot be a democracy, it is cool that Mongoose are taking input and suggestions so well. I hope that it continues as it has so far.

Well, for fear of sounding like an anal retentive, I did mention the respirator vs Riot Foam thing in this thread HERE but it wasnt dealt with in the last update.

Far more important than nitpicking of course is noting how many of the issues that were mentioned in that thread were directly dealt with in the latest update

Great progress as far as I am concerned. The core game keeps getting more refined while the scenarios and forces continue to expand.

Funny, thing! I was looking through the rulebook, on page 20 under Respirators it states it is not useful against riot foam. This is a copy I just downloaded last week. So Im guessing it got added after the main revisions.. I dont know.


They really need a version number somewhere.

That is funny. I must have missed missing it (if you know what I mean). I am glad that it has been removed one way or the other.

Definitely. msprange seems to have taken that on board for the next update, which is cool.
