In the near future, the mega-corporations of the military-industrial complex have invested trillions developing cybernetically enhanced clone soldiers for off-world exploration. Seeking to build robust teams for future missions — and more importantly, to land lucrative government contracts — they have created special training islands. On these islands, they are able to simulate all of the deadly conditions their soldiers may face on remote planets.
To fund these expensive programs and the military-grade innovations built into their test subjects, the arms manufacturers have teamed up with media moguls to create and promote broadcast competitions live from the island’s training grounds. Thus was born “RELOAD”, the biggest TV show on the planet, with the most charismatic and capable subjects competing in front of millions of avid viewers to win fame for themselves and fortunes for their creators.
In Reload, you get to engage in this battle-royale experience thanks to an innovative action dice system that offers fast-paced play and the freedom to explore the island while fighting for fame.

Juego divertido que recuerda mucho a videojuegos FPS o Battle Royal, especialmente a Fortnite. La primera partida es un caos por toda la iconografía y la ausencia de texto en las cartas (algunas cartas es imposible saber 100% como se ejecutan). El reglamento en castellano tiene una regla para lanzarse en paracaídas totalmente distinta a la correcta, por lo que es imprescindible revisarla con el reglamento en inglés. Espero que publiquen un PDF con la revisión de las reglas, un extenso FAQ y nuevas y más extendidas referencias para la iconografía.

Played one game with 3 players for the first time today and it was a beast to learn. I don't know if it's because there's no good videos of teaching it online or the rulebook is just not written well... We made it through a game and it was fun. However, reading through the rulebook now I see we made a lot of mistakes. I definitely felt like the game was a bit too short though, we essentially only get 6 turns each in a 3 player game and it's only going to be 5 each in a 4 player game... Can't wait to play it again with 4. There are a lot of components, but hopefully the box insert will cut down on setup since we can just keep most components in the slots next time. I think once you get 4 players who know what they're doing together for this, it will shine. I'll adjust my rating later.

Analog [videogame=135781][/videogame] (video game) - although officially based off [url=https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2146896/]some TV show[/url]. In board game terms : Battle Royale euro skirmish. Not my cup of tea, but can appreciate the popular appeal. I generally prefer bluff and strategy over tactics, so my preference in this genre lies with [gameid=34871] (2011) by FFG.
