We're headed back to the Zone! Patrick Todoroff's STALKER/Roadside Picnic inspired adventure game now has some Solo Rules, so as we head back into Lockdown here in Ontario I give them a spin! My squad of Contractors find themselves looking to retrieve a Data Recorder from another lost Stalker team. What happened to them must have been gruesome however as even this Level 1 Zone area seems infested with twisted rad-zombies!
Check out these (and other great solo rules) for free on Osprey's Site: ospreypublishing.com/blog/10_...

This game looks so fun. Prefer this skirmish and exploration style games over the large scale battles of other games.

Good stuff Ash. I really like this game. I think it’s a good compliment to Frostgrave. Maybe Osprey would consider an expanded hardcover reissue like they did with Gaslands.

Heh. That thing with sniper rifle with scope being hard to benefit from on a normal table crops up in Necromunda too. Their long-las/longrifle/sniper rifles all look crazy cheap and then you realize they'll almost never get a bonus to hit because LoS is almost never longer than short range for them - and a telescopic sight extends their short range bonus (which is zero) to long range, so utterly useless.

Can anyone explain (preferably with an example) how exactly skill checks work? The book is a bit confusing on this

I'm confused because it says low rolls are good and high rolls are bad but a detector or toolkit ADD to the skill check so I don't know what it means ...

@mattj1871 3 жыл бұрын

After mods, you roll that number or lower. So if your skill is 5, rollin a 1-5 = success. If an equipment is +1 then the 5 becomes a 6, and now a 1-6 succeeds.
