I’ve mentioned them before but Headless Hollow has just updated his unit cards for the new factions. They are awesome and a great replacement for your regular standard ones.
You can get them at http://www.headlesshollow.com/freebies_games.html#at43
Enjoy!
I had this blog post pop up in my Google alerts over the weekend and it pretty much sums up my feelings about the state of at-43 vs TOG (the other game). It’s a well written humourous account of Rackham and its mediocre success vs TOG.
Should Rackham hire him like he says? Can a social media campaign really push AT-43 into the next level? Who knows. I sure got a kick out of reading this though.
This video comes to us from LBD on the at-43 forums. This was a battle display they put together for the Tierra de Nadie roleplaying & wargames convention that went on this past summer. I wish I had a table like that to play on regularly!
The new CHO is available for those that subscribe to it. Unfortunately it is little more than links to the Rackham online store for things we already knew were there. 5 months of no CHO and then this?
I want some new scenarios for at-43! How about some that take advantage of the newly released army boxes? That would go a long way to getting new players that pick up an army box into the true feel of the game and would have been a far better use of time than the CHO in its current form.
I know, Rackham is busy, Rackham doesn’t have time blah blah blah. The reality is they missed a great opportunity to set the hook for new players with this release and they missed it.
All future release waves have been delayed a month due to production problems in China. The September releases have been pushed back to October 14th shifting the whole release plan a month. This is something we’ve all heard before and shouldn’t come as a huge surprise. I was really hoping that the production problems were a thing of the past. Unfortunately not.
I just got married and am currently touring europe right now. My internet access is spotty at best but I will be back at the beginning of september!
Wolflord over on the AT43 forums has started doing an army of the week feature. I’ve added links to each army in the army list section for easy access to them. Check them out. The first two are both Karman lists and they’re great.
Rackham has a video on their site of the Cogs and Red Blok army boxes being opened. I guess this will have to satisfy your AT43 craving until they are released in August.
There is a neat player made AT-43 scenario up at new moon comics. It uses a few house rules such as drop troops with scatter and it looks like it might be a bunch of fun to try out. I think I might give it a go this weekend and see how it plays out.
You can pick up the rules for Fortuna now over at Rackhams site. She looks like she’ll be a lot of fun to play with.
