It has been some time since we played a game of CBF and longer since I’ve posted a report. We refought Like Vultures to the Feast, a scenario taken from the Web Series Battlestar Prometheus.
When we were play testing the game a couple of summers ago, this was the first real scenario game we played. Before that it had been some one off games with one or two ships fighting to see how it all worked together. As a warm up and to get back into the game we felt this would be a good game to start with.
Because this was an early play test scenario, some things had changed and our first run through ended with the Colonials losing the two Guardian class ships and the Cyborgs jumping out with little damage. For the second game, we increased the Colonials speed, start closer together, and fought a closer game. The Cyborgs still destroyed the Guardians, but they took some real damage. One Three Blade was about half damaged and the Two Blade had extensive damage, most caused by the Guardians! Here are a few pictures from the refight.
This was all fine, but I did say it was a warm-up game. This weekend we are playing a large new scenario called Devil’s Caldron which involves the Armageddon class ships fighting through a large Cyborg force including two Fleet Carriers while their backs are to the dreaded Devil’s Caldron Nebula.
I hope to have pictures sometime next week with a proper report. In the meantime, here is all the information you need to play the scenario.
