Killzone and the Future

First off I would like to thank everyone that has been involved in S.O. Killzone and supported the game from the get go. I also want to say a heartfelt fond farewell to Brian and good luck in all of your future game design endeavors. I appreciate the help you gave and all the work you have done for S.O. Killzone more than words can convey.

I hate for it to end but end it has.

 S.O. Killzone will go on as S.O. Killzone: Events once its 6th edition update is done and dusted. After that is completed I will finally be able to focus on the more narrative version that I had planned to do from the very beginning of this long two year road. 

This will be Killzone: Evolution,  the next logical step in skirmish gaming for the Warhammer 40k universe.

Where Special Operations Killzone bent over backward to allow existing 40k players an easy transition into skirmish gaming; Killzone Evolution might have a bit of a learning curve for many of those same gamers.

Like its predecessor it will still draw most of its rules from 40k, but unlike its predecessor it will change the way the game turn works. 

Killzone Evolution will use an action based alternation activation turn sequence. Each model will have a set number of actions that they can perform when “activated.” More to come on this in a future post.

Then finally we will have Killzone: Forlorn Hope that will pit players verses hoards of aliens or zombies. This will be a supplement that works for both the Events and Evolution systems.

So as one chapter ends a brand new one begins for Killzone.

Cheers,
Jim
