Haven't had the time to play these in a while, but there are several games that have catched my eye. Actually there's two upcoming games that I might end up buying when they are published soon.
But for now, I picked up Nexus Ops a while back as I got it pretty cheap. From what I've read it's also a very fun and fast game. I haven't yet had a game though. :/
Anyway, here are some pics and overall impressions of the components:
Box:
As you can see this is the newer edition of Nexus Ops from Fantasy Flight games, and the game is for 2-4 players. Box is the regular FFG-sized one also found on most of their games. Game includes quite a lot of components, but the box itself is still pretty big for what is included.
(I would personally prefer to get boxes that would barely fit the components as this would save a lot of space. This just seems pointless to have an oversized box with a cardboard insert).
Tiles:
Made of good quality cardstock. Artwork is nice also, although I have read about quite a few people saying that it's too "cluttered". I don't know, I like these.
Miniatures:
Miniatures are nicely sculpted. Biggest surprice with them was just how small they are. From the promo pictures you easily get a sense of bigger figures.
Soldiers are tiny little guys, but the bigger ones are few times their size.
Quite a few of the thinner parts of the miniatures are pretty bend up as one would except, but nothing major. These are made of the same "soft" plastic as most FFG:s miniatures lately so It's easy to just bend them back to normal position without breaking them.
Game also comes with two packs of cards and some tokens. One pack of cards is the regular sized cards, and the other one is the small cards that are used in many of FFG:s games. Ofcourse as this is FFG:s game these both are also made of quality cardstock.
Overall Im eager to finally get this one to the table. Should be quick, fun and a tactical game. :)
