I plan on a few more continuous improvements including an event card system. As it stands, it is a 3 hour game with people new to it. I think the event cards will slow it down a little but add a lot more interesting flavor. The game is pretty well balanced so I think I have to be very careful about adding them. The story reworking makes a lot more sense and adds the fun 11th turn. One thing we did during the convention was specified room limits. I'll probably rework the floor panels with them specified on it.

Your reworking of the story and motivations sounds interesting and it would great to take a look at it! Hey, would you happen to have a PDF of your revised rules for Attack of the Mutants?

The humans have the edge, especially being able to repair robots between rounds. I need to fully flesh out the sequence of combat from round to round. The important distinction is the timing of retreats. It seems with some play testing that retreating from combat as soon as it is going bad is incredibly important for the survival of the humans. The mutants, of course, want to prevent this so any effort put towards setting up blocking positions is very useful and could lead to the elimination of major pockets of human resistance! I see also the game balance is easily tipped so I have to be quite careful with the use of the event cards. I may make each one give a benefit to both sides to maintain the balance.
