"Cyberpunk Red: Combat Zone - The Ultimate Prequel and Affordable Starter Set"

Cyberpunk Red: Combat Zone, a miniatures skirmish game based on the Cyberpunk tabletop role-playing universe, offers a meaty experience at a lower price compared to other wargames. The game features easy-to-read cards and tokens, turn-based tactical gameplay, and netrunning mechanics. It includes a comprehensive rulebook with campaign rules and climactic missions. However, the boxed set lacks proper assembly instructions for miniatures and terrain, which may be a drawback for newcomers. Despite this, Combat Zone offers a great value with 12 miniatures, over 250 cards, buildings, and more. Pre-orders are available for $120, with delivery expected in the fall.
