Re: The Return of A/state
I read about the original game when visiting Contested Ground's site for Cold City/Hot War material and to contribute to their forum. For some reason I got the impression it was more of a steam punk game. The new version looks interesting, slightly 80s retro style with those towerblocks?

I know we talked about before but loved the settings, less enamoured of the game system. Used MiniSix in the end for my short Cold City campaign.

Re: The Return of A/state
I remember seeing it when it first came about and being interested but not interested enough to really want to game it. I recall buying the main book as a PDF but I didn't give it a thorough reading because it didn't really grab me.
I'm not unhappy to see it being relaunched but I don't think I'll be in any rush to buy it (I don't think most of my gaming group would really get into it).
