Drop zone commander battle !

Last night my friend and I broke out our drop zone commander armies . I've been building and painting my UCM army since the game first came out but hadn't played too much . Only to not to many players in my local area . My friend was fielding his new resistance army . I kept joking around about when will it be painted . But with a future child coming next month I belive it will be a bit . Great game . Just picked up the new book . This game is great , it plays well . Awesome models that are easy to paint . The card board city terrain is excellent . It's cheap and sets up easy . It looks great while playing too , very rare to see wargaming tables with very dense buildings due to the expense . We started off with a standard mission from the original book . Game went well with a Lot of carnage . Quickly I sexed two objectives and escaped by condor drop ship . The rest of the game I just tried to prevent the resistance from getting there objectives .my albatross heavy drop ship got shot down by some heavy technicals with anti aircraft guns which I just underestimated . A lot of my mistakes were from not knowing the new armies . I underestimated this scrappy rag tag force . Big mistake . I ended up pulling out a win but earned a new respect for the resiteance army . My only down was the organization of the rule book is bad . It's hard to locate lots of rules etc , but down the road I can see the book being improved . Besides that if you haven't tried drop zone commander , gets your hands on the starter box set . Great game a must for any one wanting a nice size scifi engagement game .
