All good, am well keen for this but 50% extra cost for shipping makes me pause. Are you only going to sell the paper version? no PDF?

So I just spoke to Steve at Spectre and there are no plans for a PDF but he did remind me of their subsidised shipping.

What sized table would you recommend for a typical engagement?

I've got visions of a scenario involving a desolate farmhouse surrounded by black 4x4's and shady suits piling out...

That's a good question, some more info or an AAR would be nice.
Looking at the numbers they give for ranges and numbers of models on the tabletop it looks like its designed to be 4'x4' upto 6'x4', terrain heavy.
With any luck someone might swing by again and enlighten us.

Hi Everyone,

We've played games from 2x3' all the way up to 9x14' with a mix of complex to fairly sparse terrain... its all about how you take advantage of the terrain you have!

Do the rules contain a recommended table size?
Any chance of an AAR or quick rules run down?
