Some friends of mine at one of my FLGSs have begun to sell me on Confrontation, which is apparently making a comeback. They describe it as a small model-count, detail-oriented, skirmish-level fantasy game - kind of a magical Infinity. I'm increasingly tempted.
Before I take the plunge, however, I turn to my faithful BoLSers to ask if anyone has any wisdom to share. In particular...
1) Basic backstory/lore? What's going on?
2) Factions. Who are they? What do they want? What are their playstyles?
3) In particular... tell me about the Daikinees Elves, the Kelts, and the Lions of Alahan (and the Ophidians, who I dismissed as bad guys - I don't normally play bad guys unless the models are weirdly compelling - but can't stop thinking about, so maybe 'weirdly compelling' is appropriate here).
4) Gameplay. What's it like?
Thanks in advance. I'll be back in to comment and ask more questions.
