OK, so Tail Feathers is GOOD STUFFS.
And, AND, we dint even have all the rules!!! There are special action cards (which are paid for with CHEESE!) and death spiral birdfights and things!
I've got enough cards/figures that we can do all the players having hybrid forces. (which means multiple missions per side in play as well!). The only limit would be on the squad sizes, because there's only 12 rat commandos and 12 oakguard. I'll get some decent prints of the rookie pilot cards as well, and there's another character mouse pilot. We could also use proxies for some of the ground forces (I've got cards for 2 spiders, 2 centipedes, 2 roach infestations but only 1 set of figures) -- Reaper does some suitables bones figures.
One rule we missed -- if you have a full wheel of cheese, you re-roll cheese dice results.

Was good fun indeed but less is more. We didn't come close to finishing the game even after getting a reasonably early start. Maybe less forces not more? Or at the least the same number.

I think we can play faster when we get used to the rules. And I suspect the nest damage was about to ramp up because a lot of the ground forces were "poorly". There were a lot of very shooty mice near my nest and they'd be doing 3-4 wounds a turn, a lot of clawy birds near Joe's which (if not rattled) can do 3 wounds a turn. Those commandos that had just landed will tear a nest apart really quickly if they get close: They're rolling 9 melee dice a turn, so 4-5 wounds each time. I don't think this is a "slow gradual whittling" game. I've compile an armylist builder: docs.google.com/document/d/1oPmMjmcwmyAO7gjH3qclb1aE2-I4ZLxhEZzzPM_Na80/editWe were using 77/78 points a side -- the recc is 30-50 per player. Now, here's an interesting feature -- the rats don't have a tinkerer character. So they can't build ballistae...
