All yesterday at the Darkson/Pulp Monster booth we had Partisans giving demos of AE-Bounty. We will be doing demos all day today as well. So if you want to learn more about Bounty please drop by.
We also have a WIP copy of the AE-Bounty rule book.

So, how did it go? Can anyone describe the differences between Bounty and WWII?

there are two main differences that i spotted while i flipped through the book. The first being that each choice can also pick what race it wants to be, this gives them abilities or stat increase/decrease.
the second thing i noticed was that units gain "gear" which is another way to customize your squad, from artificial organs to gun sights. This further personalizes your army to suit your needs. It should be mentioned that you can also create a 2 man bounty crew.

There's a few pictures floating about. Not much to see picture-wise. Looks like the demo played on a simple 2d floor plan of a space ship, so the real meat of the game is the rules.

Here are my pics from the show. The demos went great and the two Bounty events on Sunday were a lot of fun. The bounty hunters were able to kill a VIP but failed to escape the mercenaries after they had crashed on a nearby planet. Lots of carnage ensued. Expect the two-round tree campaign to be posted online in the coming week or so. Demos of Bounty at the booth  The first round of the Sunday Bounty campaign  Bounty Hunter deployment  Mercenary deployment  Standoff  The second round of the Sunday Bounty campaign  |

The 2 man crews are pure evil. Absolutely! I played a two-man crew during the demo (an Arges and a Cerebix - grey alien-esque psyker). They were only going up against a 3-4 man team, but it was still pretty balanced. FYI: Don't get into melee range of an Arges where possible. If they can spend an entire turn wailing away on you with their fists, you aren't going to survive very long  |

Bounty is looking better and better. Where did you get those space ship tiles? Space Hulk is being re-released, the tiles from that would be great for Bounty.
