Title: Rapid Fire! WWII Rules
Post by: T13A on 06 October 2024, 05:45:08 PM
Hi

Hoping that someone can clarify for me. Have the Rapid Fire RELOADED rules taken over from the original (and 2nd version) Rapid Fire! rules or are that an alternative 'slimmed down' version of the rules? Hope that makes sense.

Thanks for any help.

Cheers Paul

I think they are a replacement. Certainly they play better.

Many still play the RF2 version while a lot have moved to RFR. 

All of the more recent small scenario books have been prepared for RFR - but play equally as well with RF2. 

I still play both depending on who i am playing with and the game we are looking for.

The scenario books work well with Battlegroup, certainly as a basis....

I would second that. My club played RF and then RFR the week after and we felt that RFR was a better game.

To better 'replace' Rapid Fire 2 with RFR get the 2nd RFR booklet as it contains many of the supplementary rules that are in RF2

Thanks Norm

Is that the 'Rapid Fire! Reloaded Extra' book?
