A mighty interesting boxed set of miniature rules are arriving soon from across the pond and fans of 1960’s and 70’s spy films and tv shows should take note. Crooked Dice Game Design Studio has the second edition of 7TV making its way from the printers shortly and, from what I’ve seen online, the system looks pretty cool. If you’ve ever wanted to recreate classic Bond film battle climaxes or unleash The Avengers (as in the British show) on a group of baddies then 7TV is going to be right up your alley. The rule set should be available in January and carries an MSRP of £58.50 for folks here in the States.
From Crooked Dice:
7TV is our tabletop miniatures game of high-octane spy-fi action set in the worlds of 1960s and 70s cult TV shows. Spies, minions, masterminds, ghosts, aliens, officialdom, hitmen, coppers and metal killers are all waiting for you. Relive some of 7TV Studio’s great lost shows or create your own and reach new audiences! 7TV is back in 2015 with an all new 2nd edition, so grab your shooting script and lets go!
