What Happens in Mos Vegas - Historicon 2022

15mm Star Wars skirmish in Mos Vegas



Had a great time at Historicon. The game ran fairly well. There will be a few minor tweaks and additions to add more heroic feel and help characters survive. FUBAR 4th edition rules were used for the skirmish combat. A set of speeder bike racing rules are being developed after some playtesting at the Con. Hope you all enjoy.



Skirmish game for up to 10 people. Board will be 4x6 and contain desert buildings and spaceport bays. Each faction will start at a specified location and attempt to complete their main objective. Victory points will be awarded for completing primary, secondary, and bonus objectives. Some modified values, but based on Fubar 4th edition core rules. Each character in the faction group will have a special ability with limited use.
