The original Fistful of Lead has been around for a decade with a small, but loyal fan base. Galactic Heroes expands the line of western gunfight rules into outer space, because what else is a good sci-fi movie other than a western set in space? Did we mention the monster maker? What do you want? Giant Monsters? War of the Worlds? Go for it. Your incredibly valuable toolbox is located on page For this alone Galactic Heroes will be a crucial component in your library as you craft your battle scenarios and gangs.
Now all the pieces are here for purchase in the Wiley Games Store. As always, clearly written rules with just the right amount of new rules to fully immerse the players in the pulpy retro-Scifi genre. The "Crew Traits" are are very nice addition and "Powers" make it very easy to give your scearios the Star Wars feel.
The Codex Galactica and Vehicle Instruction Manual are the icing on the cake, giving players all the options they need to generate exciting campaigns in a universe of their choosing.
Keep up the great work. Wargames Vault. Absolutely love it. A character cannot board a vehicle that is already occupied- the vehicle must be empty. If the pilot is Stunned, they must spend an action to recover, just like normal. Vehicles themselves cannot be attacked- only the pilot of a vehicle can be attacked.
Turrets cannot move. There are two ways to include vehicles in your games. You may start one of your characters inside the vehicle. Anyone can use them just by getting in!
Try to place them fairly evenly spread out, or in the middle of the table. Any character type can be upgraded to an Officer. You may upgrade one of your Heroes to an Officer if you wish, by paying 1 point. Be sure to announce which Hero has an Officer upgrade at the start of the game. Choose Heroes appropriate to be made an Officer.
They otherwise behave exactly like a normal Hero of the type chosen. Commander Cody and Sgt. Davin Felth are good examples of Squad Leaders. Squad Leaders are troopers that are always seen with at least 1 other regular trooper. They may reroll any 1 die for any type of action. Any 1 point hero small or droid may be upgraded to a Scout by paying 1 point. Be sure to announce which Hero has a Scout upgrade at the start of the game.
This does not take an action. The player may examine, but will not reveal, that token. They do not have to tell the other players what the token is. This is most enjoyable when players are playing different teams for example, Rebels vs. Be sure the other players agree to use Rivalry rules before using them.
Avoid using these rules with younger players, as it can encourage irrational retaliation. You have been warned If you win, they become Stunned. You may not attack a hero that is already Stunned. Anyone can pick the Credit token up including the hero that dropped it, when it is their turn.
If the hero's player doesn't have any Credit tokens to drop, they don't have to drop anything. Place the stunned hero outside the vehicle.
Anyone can get into the vehicle see rules for vehicles above. You cannot ask for both Drop It and Get Out- choose which effect you want to apply. More special scenarios will be added soon, so check back periodically. Find them and rescue them before its too late! These could be indicated with escape pods, arrows, etc.
These can be earned by rescuing prisoners! Everyone should start with four points of Heroes. Treat them as Trapped- they may not Escape on their own. You may only have one Rescued Prisoner in play at a time. If you want to rescue more prisoners, you must first get your rescued prisoner to an Exit point. The game ends when all tokens have been collected, including the Bonus tokens. Disarm them before they explode! Roll your dice. Mark the center of the table. Place tokens as normal you can place tokens out on the table edges , but avoid placing tokens within 1 stick of the center.
All players start from the center, and should place their heroes there at the start of their turn. Everyone has a chance to spread out as they pursue tokens. You found an enemy BOSS. Place an enemy BOSS figure on top of the token.
Remove the boss model and it's token s and place them on the side of the board. Whoever defeats the Boss will earn ALL the tokens it has accumulated so far! You are trapped!
