Hi Folks :)
Rebellion is one of my all-time favorite games, both mechanically (I think they picked up a lot of good ideas from Master of Orion) as well as thematically (I'm a fan of the old SW Expanded Universe).
I've started doing a challenge run where I limit myself to only using one of the two: playing as Rebels and only using characters, no battles. I have ideas for doing a "battles only, no characters or special forces" run as well, once I finish the current one.
If you want to check out how it's going, there's a bunch of recorded videos out already in this playlist:

And here's a direct link to the first video:

Be advised, the first few videos had some technical problems, and I was also still getting the hang of the whole thing, because these are streamed on Twitch and then uploaded to YouTube. New episodes come out weekly, every Tuesday around 18h CEST.
I hope you check out the videos, and if you have any advice for playing the game, or for recording it, let me know! :)
P.S. When I went to the forum to post this today, I saw the thread about the new patch allowing widescreen, etc. I'll try and set that up for my second run.
