Knowing my track record, I may have missed this on Garpa - if not, then drool over this!

Does Academy Games know that they're borrowing the counters from Conflict of Heroes?   :P  Ok, I compared the two - very similar but not exact.   The game looks like it has some CoH, Up Front and maybe Flames of War in it mixed with some pure fantasy. Purists will giggle at it but it looks like it could be a fun game if it plays really fast.  If it bogs down in rules (doesn't look like it would), it'd be a dud.  Just IMO of course.

It actually uses blocks rather than counters, with an option to use mini's, and they look good if the Panther illustrated is anything to go by.

You kill me bob... this was in this Friday's GARPA....  :P

It is a very interesting looking project, especially the "easy and quick" combat resolution.
