Adeptus Titanicus Event. Pallidus Mor Walks.
Today we had our first Adeptus Titanicus event with the local gaming club. The focus of the day was to introduce and learn the game. I had a great time!
Adeptus Titanicus is a wonderful game. Very nice rules and lovely models. The first game was a large one with 6 people involved, each one with a Titan each. This worked great. The game feels surprisingly complete with just one Titan to control. It worked so good in fact that we decided to play the next game together once more but with some more Titans to control each.
The only down side to the game is the rule book layout. It is incredibly hard to find what you are looking for. And with basic rules + advances rules + additional rules, one part taking president over others it can become a mess of things. However, once the rules is understood. The game runs really smooth and with a lot of immersion. There is a lot of tactical depth even just with so few models on the table. But the game never feels bogged down or overwhelming. You kind of feel like a princept controlling something massive.
The game feels quite exciting at every step and only grows more intense the longer the game progress. I can tell you that loosing in this game is quite exciting as well. Exploding Reactors, detonating fellow Titans around it, is just as fun no matter if it is yours or your opponents war machine that’s erupts.
This might just be the greatest game Games Workshop have ever produced. All of course is my opinion, but if you have an opportunity, go check this game out. It really deserves a large audience. This will definitely be a game I will play more often.
Thank you to all who participated, hope we can do this again soon!
