I think the IP is great - and their future ideas for more humans (French, Prussians) and aliens (Morlocks, Venusians) were interesting - but the rules definitely need an overhaul. <br /><br />I do hope that someone else picks up the license, but then does that come at the price of disgruntled Kickstarter backers? <br /><br />In the mean time, I'll still search for a US Command Squad to get the starter set humans equal in points to the Martians, so I can pull out the two forces whenever I feel like a little All Quiet action.

I think most backers managed to get the lion's share of their stuff, except of course the last 3 large items : Overseer, Goliath & Thunderchild. Hopefully the line will be bought by another company & may find a new life! A lot of those with the game will likely continue to enjoy it & there is a fan forum to keep it aliveTerry Silverthornhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02873668652853883440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4167684119478977136.post-30180197699579371962016-01-28T17:19:38.063+00:002016-01-28T17:19:38.063+00:00There's no surprise here.
