Lock 'n Load Tactical: Solo Getting Closer

[David Heath]

Lock 'n Load Tactical: Solo is the next evolution in our Lock 'n Load Tactical series. LnLTS is a solitaire system that provides players with a way to play scenarios and generated battles on their own. But we wanted to beyond that and provide one solitaire system that would work for the entire Lock 'n Load Tactical series past, present and future games.

LnLTS will allow you to play any complete Lock ‘n Load Tactical game including any expansions, in either World War 2 or Modern eras. We designed the system so players would be able to play the scenarios that come with the games. We do knowledge that there may be a few scenarios that won't play as smoothly as others because of special events or special rules.

LnLTS will work with any scenario generated by our LnLT Battle Generators and we also introduce a new Random Events system that we hope to expand on. These random events could be used in two player games.

LnLTS was developed by Bob Bicket, Sean Druelinger, and David Heath and is based and licensed from Academy Games' Solo game design. We like to thank Uwe Eickert for allowing us to use their design create LnLTS for our LnLT fans. Expect to this in your Christmas stockings. We will have more details shortly.

Great news, really looking forward to this one. Do you have a rough price of what it's going to cost?

 

[David Heath]

Hi,

We are looking at between $65.00 - $75.00. Pre-order will be lower about $50.00 to $60.00 once it is available.

Hi,

We are looking at between $65.00 - $75.00 per game. Pre-order will be lower about $50.00 to $60.00 once it is available.

Sorry, you've just confused me with the "per game" bit. Your original post infers that there is there one all-compassing Solo module that can be used for all the games. Is that not the case? Do we have to buy one for each LnLT game? No probs if we do, just seeking some clarity.

 

[David Heath]

Sorry, my bad, there is only ONE Lock 'n Load Tactical: Solo game and it will work with all PAST, PRESENT, and FUTURE LnLT games.

Sweet!

 

[Cottonbaler]

Great news -- thanks for the update!

 

[MichaelCD]

This really cannot become reality fast enough for me!

 

[Captain Darling]

Very nice addition to the range, I'll pick it up as sometimes FtF games aren't always possible.

 

[Jaime Andres]

Great! already asking Santa to bring me this for christmas...or after!!!

 

[Tron]

This is great news! I'm really looking forward to this product.

Better get my Santa letter fired up

We are going to use Tarot card size instead of the normal Poker size card. Allows us to use a bigger font and we have more room to work with.

 

[Trevor Henderson]

Would be happy to assist in testing if there is still room on the team.

Regards,
Trevor

I don't want to appear overly excited about the LnL Tactical Solo product but... I just got my tarot size sleeves in the mail today.

 

[David Heath]

Let me say the testing as been coming along very well. Some nice little changes but the players are saying how the Solo Cards have brought some of the scenarios down to the last turn and they have lost to the AEO.

 

[The Plodder]

Sounds like it's a good AI. Would be quite interesting to see two AI decks fight each other.

 

[Captain Darling]

AEO?

I'm a fuddy duddy what does this stand for?

Amply Egoed Oppenent, Ale Enhanced Opposition...

 

[David Heath]

Artificial Enemy Opponent

 

[Captain Darling]

Thanks thought it'd be artificial something a rather...
