A long shot of Greg’s Star Wars game using Combat Patrol(TM): WWII with the free Star Wars supplement<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Greg Priebe ran two Star Wars games using Combat Patrol(TM) at Cold Wars 2018 last weekend. \u00a0He ran this scenario twice. \u00a0On several occasions the shouting from the table was deafening. \u00a0One time was when the rebels killed Darth Vader.<\/p>\n

The scenario involved a group of Rebels, including Kanan and Ezra, who had come to this planet to steal Imperial supplies. \u00a0Unfortunately for them, it was a trap set by the Empire. \u00a0Stormtroopers, including Darth Vader, attacked from the two narrow sides of the table, and the Rebels had to try to escape.<\/p>\n

If the terrain looks familiar, it is because we used this table for five games during the weekend. \u00a0Don used it for a WWII game between the Japanese and Americans on an island in the Pacific. \u00a0I used it for two games set in 1941 with the Japanese attacking Americans. \u00a0Greg used it twice for his Star Wars games. \u00a0We varied the terrain slightly from game to game, but using the same basic table for several scenarios really helps ease the transition times between games and takes some stress off the GMs.<\/p>\n
