If, like me, you’re somewhere between the ages of about 33 and 40, you’ll very likely have spent most of your childhood avoiding the Power Rangers. What seemed like a stupid, cheesy mess to me was apparently hugely exciting to slightly younger kids, but I just never got it. As it turns out, Power Rangers had more fans than I could ever have imagined, and some of them are still just as keen today as they were back in the, erm, mid 1990′s. Cue Power Rangers: Heroes of the Grid, a surprising new miniatures game from Renegade Game Studios.

Given my admission that I’m not a Power Rangers fan, you might be surprised to read that I’ve spent a fair chunk of my free time over the past few weeks playing this pleasingly straightforward game, but Jonathan Ying (the designer of Star Wars: Imperial Assault and Bargain Quest) has delivered an absolute blinder.
