Default Team Yankee reboot

I just learned that there is a new miniatures rule system based on Team Yankee for cold war era gaming. Seems to be an offshoot of Flames of War. Anyone taken a look? Could be a good option for resolution of larger T2k battles and other similar situations.

I know nothing about it, but having said that I will have nothing to do with it. I am boycotting BattleFraud, tell they make good on the kickstarter that they scammed people out of $$, to pay there bills.

I have heard 2ndhand that it's pretty good, but I've been out of miniatures games for a while.

Seems to be a lot of that going around in miniature gaming.

And the real sad thing is it seems to be coming from a lot of established companies that you would think you could trust, based on their track records.

Default I have a copy

I have a copy, more for reading than playing. Considering using it for 6mm (1/300) the 15mm just looks wrong.

The organisations have a few mistakes but seems fast and playable.

Got one to read as well. Looks fast and entertaining overall. I agree that the models seem to get pretty cramped on a standard table. It does seem to have borrowed a lot, at least in terms of feel, from the solid board game of the same name.

Having read it, I don't think it would be much use for T2k combat resolution. It's fundamentally a tank game and there just aren't that many tanks rolling around in 2000. Also hugely abstracted at what would be the PC level.
