It’s been awhile since my last update, but we’ve been hard at work playtesting the new units, buildings, special rules, etc… Most of the rough edges have already been smoothed out and with a little fine tuning — it’ll be ready for the public.
Sadly, there won’t be a Print & Play version this time around, but I will be releasing a FREE Tabletop Simulator (TTS) mod via the Steam Workshop. The new mod (pictured above) allows 2-4 players to play in team or free-for-all games on a variety of maps — no printing, pasting or cutting required.
The game is looking great and I’m especially happy with the new rulebook cover (pictured below). You’ll probably notice the name change right away…
Forward Operations was suggested by Alex Friedrich, rulebook editor and playtester extraordinaire. This new name will replace Battleground: Hostile Intentions (2nd Edition) going forward and it much more accurately reflects what the game is actually about – building and expanding a forward operating base, holding critical objectives and waging war on your opponents in bloody, fast-paced combat.
