Converted from Phorums BB System

I bought Runebound as soon as it came out, and got a chance to play it over the weekend. My game group loves it! So I have to give it my highest recommendation.

I'm most impressed by the system itself. I had hesitations about the movement dice, but they're brilliant! The combat is sweet. The production values are top notch. And most of the art is good or better.

My criticisms are really minor, if I had to nitpick I'd say the downtime and lack of player interaction are the only weaknesses I see in the game. I think the skill system would be stronger if there were -less- skills, so that each skill would become more important and come up more often during play.

In all I think FFG has produced another classic.
