will it be a hex game?

[scuy]

Wondering if this game will be a hex game or a free flying type of game with turning arcs. Reason I am asking is because I am in the process of finding a gaming mat for spaceships. ACTA:SF for example and would like to be able to use it for this too.

At this time it is inches and turning arcs.

Free-flying - here at Mongoose, we hates hexes, Precious!

Matt has been corrupted it seems. He found the Precious.

So far what I have seen is inches same as the other mini games produced by Mongoose.

Here's a simple rule of thumb for Mongoose and their Minis games

You ain't *NEVER* gonna see anything based on some kind of pre-preprinted grid.. not hex, not squares, nothing. Everything is measured like so many other games from other publishers like W40k, WarMachine/Hordes, etc.

But that said, there is nothing to stop someone from playing the game using a square or hex matt... you just need to agree on arcs and such since firing arcs are done as 90 or 180 degrees, and one side of a hex is 60 degrees. Quite awkward.
