Thanks for the video! Just for anyone in the comments: They errata'd the black obstacle die so the player wins ties instead of the obstacle winning ties.

How did I not know about this game???? I love Cyberpunk, I feel like a total gonk …

So, just to point it out, Corvus Belli sells a bunch of cheap, cyberpunk themed terrain that would work super well for this game. I love their cyberpunk-themed game Infinity, but it’s all special forces based. I want to play street gangs! This will scratch that itch nicely.

Im so glad I backed this during KS and now on the 3rd Cyberpunk Red KS. It's a very clean and straightforward system. 👍

@11:00 the black die actually needs to beat the active player (recent rule update) also you can just hop over anything less than black in height.

It would be great to see you do a battle report for Combat Zone. This was an excellent informational video by the way. Subscribed.

Thanks for the walk through! Just got my guys painted and I’m ready to dive in!

Entirely useful ! Thanks a lot for putting this up.

This has helped me clarify a lot of rules - but when it comes to movement, do you have to move in one straight line, or can you curve the range ruler round corners and move around a corner that way?

[NicholasMathews-ihti]

Does street cred on gear add up or add long as it’s under your total you can add it?

[heathgray]

Do you still play this? Also I dont think the opponent has to spend thier action to stop you from moving through them. The rules state they have to choose a die, but not spend an action.
