Soft announcement: new Ogre set!

[Steve Jackson]

Okay! Thank you all. I have to say, most of the latest round of comments ascended to the level of copy editing, if not downright game development. But I agreed with a lot of them. Did I say thanks? Thanks.

I'm going to call the rules done, turn this last set of corrections over to Gabby, and . . . think about what to do next!

Square is fine too, I just preferred the ovals...the main thing is the movement stat block on the FanMade OGRE Unit Card.
Is it at-a-glance easier to tell movement than the one we currently have?
This sure doesn't prove anything, but two of the two OGRE players and friends I know said yes.
(Sorry, that was the best I could poll so far...lol). Your movement at any given time will be whatever your tread units
are within the numbered bracket. Those brackets are what make it at-a-glance easier to tell, at least that's my biased opinion.

If it's a viable option, and makes game play flow better maybe all the new OGRE unit cards can be updated
with the bracket movement idea.

Am I mistaken, or is that the new Ogre box's counters on the wall in the background?

Well they certainly aren't sheets for Munchkin! Looking cool, starting to drool.

That sheet has seven crater/clear hex overlays, three ridge/clear hexline overlays, a Mark V, two Mark IIIs, a CP, a MCP, and four ? tokens.

But what's that counter in the upper corner? An attacker GEV?
