Description
Raise merry hell with the legendary operators of the Special Air Service!
SAS: Rogue Regiment is a WW2 stealth action game for 1-4 players. Taking on the role of SAS soldiers in the pivotal weeks following D-Day, players must carry out acts of sabotage deep behind enemy lines.
Ambush convoys, assassinate high ranking officers, destroy ammo dumps and much, much more in your four man campaign against the Axis war machine!
Strike from the shadows!
Take down enemy patrols and sentries with the vast array of tools at your disposal, from rifles, explosives and grenades to vehicles, traps and your trusty fighting knife.
Leave no trace!
Move quickly and quietly to complete your objectives. Kill silently and hide the bodies to avoid detection. Get spotted, make too much noise or take too long to carry out your objective and the enemy will raise the alarm. Your heavily outnumbered team won’t last long in a firefight so when the attack comes, make sure you’re in position to make four men feel like a hundred!
Gameplay
Each turn, every SAS operator has 4 action points which they can use to move, shoot and carry out tasks. During the "stealth phase" of the game, enemy movement is dictated by patrol lines, sentry points and an event card which is drawn each turn. Each mission has a stealth meter which will slowly fill each time the players arouse suspicion (firing weapons, leaving bodies out in the open etc.) If the stealth meter completely fills the players are detected & the alarm will sound, triggering the "battle phase". The aim of the game is to carry out the mission objective and escape the area unscathed, the easiest way to do this is to avoid detection for as long as possible.

- So many games and we can't play them all because we're not robots. We have to eat and sleep and do other things as well.
- I really enjoyed the concept of this. It's a co-op game. This we got even before I started going to say hating co-op game, but understanding they weren't for me.
- It sounds okay, but it also big and we don't need it.
- This is actually not sad. It's actually a positive thing getting these out of the house so we can get more games into the...

- I made three videos earlier this year. Three videos where I cover the different games I want to play, some games, some expansions, some games in 2024, all the various categories.
- Now, I've shown off some of the things they have in the past. I have this kind of messily over here right now. Just the various uh bits and bobs of various ways you can track 10 by 10 lists or you know uh the 5x5 lists or any different kind of challenges using fun little uh blanks that go in here and then you use little meeples to track the various uh scores you the various games you've played in order to see how well you're doing on your personal challenges.
- Um, I mean, I've played a bunch of games and I have various games I will want to play, but stick around to the end of this video and you'll see me uh put together on the fly with subject to change a challenge board for me to go through separate from my uh current challenge.
- Speaking of my current challenge, I have a package from him that just showed up over here.
- As much as Vegas Geek 3D does fun little magnetic boards, if you want a fun place to put your fun little magnetic board, check out these shelves behind me from Allplay, the table from AllPlay.
- Long story short, uh he saw that I have this challenge for myself of games I want to play. And so he said, "Hey, what if I think a challenge board for you?" And I was like, "That would be awesome."
- Do I actually have 35? 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10. No, this is a 50 challenge board. Oh no, I need to add 50 games to the mix.
- I'm going to go ahead and open up the tokens and simply see how well we've been doing.
- Middle Ages is one of the games that I wanted to play and I have played Middle Ages.

- The crew is actually fantastic. I met them the other night at the um the the the demo the media demo tonight.
- Memorial 44 to me is luck as to where you can actually go followed by luck as to what you roll. I can deal with one of those two looks both together and I just feel like I don't have the agency I want.
- Terraria new expansion coming soon. That's the first time I'm hearing of that.
- This which looks fantastic. I have not seen this properly set up. Bridge or bust. Uh this feels like an insane system. It's based on like it's got to be based on like those video games. I don't know. This feels This feels crazy. Toy factor high gameplay possibly not as much my jam.
- This has been a light UK Games Expo tour. Next year I hope to do better.
- Long story short, uh Friday I slept in because of the plane and catching up on sleep. And then Sunday the trains were down. So um between the two I got you I got you uh late on the coverage.
- This is more intended as like, hey, if you haven't been to UK Games Expo, you want to get a sense of the similarities or differences to other conventions. Hopefully, this gave you a light touring of showing.
