Combat is quick and deadly, and there aren't any crazy heroics, good tactics tend to prevail, and, as I amply demonstrate, poor tactics will get your men killed (I am the king of poor tactics). <br /><br />Without those mechanics, Nuts! is at least as serious as Disposable Heroes / Coffin for Seven Brothers (how serious a game that is, I realize, is a matter of contention).<br /><br />What's nice is that the game can handle cinematic/comic book or serious just by leaving out some bits.<br /><br />-JohnJohn Yhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16465161620134394060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7821645241628438303.post-48798243617663229552014-06-04T11:59:04.673-07:002014-06-04T11:59:04.673-07:00Nice review.

I think knowing the style of game you're going to get is really important, eg: they might be a great entertaining ruleset, but if you're after a simulation you'll be disappointed. Looking forward to hearing more about NUTS!, it sounds fun. Cheers, Paul :-)Paul Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17249430164077358978noreply@blogger.com
