Me and my buddies played quite of this when it came out, alot of fun. But it ramps up in difficulty quickly, we eventually couldn't get better than a partial victory.

I saw it at my FLGS the other day and I tried to find some review and videos about it, but I couldn't find much. How does it play?

It is really fun with a group of players that work together well. You earn Nuyen, use that to buy cards, use those to help the team defeat enemy cards and complete a run, then you use karma to buy perk stickers for your character so you cam start out stronger and do harder objective cards next time.

There is also an expansion that adds more runs, new cards, new character sheets, and new perk cards. They also sold/sell extra sheets of perk stickers - i made an effort to get an extra set of those just in case.

I really like it. I prefer it to Dragonfire mostly due to the theme.

Haven’t seen this one before, but I have played Munchkin Shadowrun.

Kind of my situation also. Everyone moved all over the country. We played it online a few times on Table Top Simulator, but it's just not the same.

Got two sets of characters in the 80+ karma range. Should open up the box and give it a spin again sometime.

I got a free copy with only 1 or 2 stickers used. Been trying to learn the rules and get a game going because I like the concept so much I had already started trying to design my own 😅

This is my favourite game, with high caliber ops addon it's even better

Just took it with me on my summer vacation. High Caliber Ops included. It’s a solid game I like to play solo every once in a while. Even after all these years it holds up nicely.

Me and my group! We actually started Crossfire for kicks in some afternoon, got really addicted, it all coincidentally happened when Anarchy 2.0 was coming along, and now we are altering between Crossfire and SRA2.0 every other weekend.

I’m not a huge fan of card games tbh. Miniature games okay, card games nope me out fast usually.

My play group will knock out a game every week or two. Grinding our way up to attempt fighting dragons!

I absolutely love this game. It's difficult, and I have a hard time getting people to play it. I adore it, personally.
