That intro was pretty funny 🤣 I will say that the mat is big enough that the folding isn't that bad at all and the creases will smooth out pretty easily. Also, the gameplay itself is awesome! One of the best 😎
The base rings are for the event that someone paints the mini’s/base. That is still a rare case I believe that the vast majority of customers WON’T go to that extreme of painting, but that’s what the rings are for after all. In terms of the laser, yes there is a blocker inside the pointer so that it does not accidentally get turned on in transit. You have to remove the little paper tab and then reinsert the batteries to get it going. As for gameplay…AWESOME! I don’t have ANY other game that’s like this and has as much variety in it! I’ve played the suggested scenario (Control) for each map and beginner players. I’m super excited now to expand my gameplay to “bomb” and “hostage”, with full teams of characters, hidden operators, and full rules. #SuperExcited Great game, unfortunate publisher…
