ParticipantMine’s generally a 6’*4′ table. I can extend for crud.

ParticipantHi Justin, a bit late to the party, but I can’t access the dropbox files- “the file does not exist”. Any chance of a refresh?

ParticipantOooh- do tell, who was the author and what was the book?

ParticipantDoesn’t Call of Cthulhu cover this in some form?
Madness (and avoiding madness) is a core part of the game.

ParticipantAs I can’t remember the intricate details of the prequel books, I enjoyed it. A bit slow to start with, but the pace picks up as it goes along.

Participant28mm. Hands down. The rules could be whatever you please, depending on what your preferred number of troops on the table is.

ParticipantHats off on the crew! Nice work with greenstuff.

ParticipantSo all trousers, tunics and footwear done, the chain hauberks and such all done. A few touch-ups on hands and faces, and leg-wrappings, then beards and helmets.
Oh, and I added a few more javelinmen Thralls- it’s 167 on there now!
Suitable for use in both WAB and Hail Caesar.

ParticipantI have no idea where you’d find one, but the Great Spined Dragon by Nick Bibby
has always been my favourite.

Participant127 Vikings of assorted types, all assembled and on bases. Next up- undercoating and some basing compound to smooth out the puddle bases around their feet.

ParticipantHmmm. I only do 28mm, but here’s my list:
Heer, Gebirgs, Hermann Goering, SS Gebirgs, Luftwaffe Field Division, Volksgrenadier. FJ (waiting to be assembled & painted).
Mid War Soviet. Late War Soviet.
USA.
Commonwealth.
Finnish.
Italian (waiting to be assembled & painted).
12 so far, each consisting of a mix of infantry, artillery and some vehicles.

ParticipantI’m one (leave them in boxes in a closet of shame) until I, at long last, reach three (eventually finish them). During this process, they’ll often travel from workbench to closet and back several times!

ParticipantAlways!

ParticipantI think you’ve summed up WH pretty well. I think the pros outweigh the cons for me.
I think I’d also add long-time familiarity with the rules as a pro.
http://mainly28s.com
wargames review site...Olaf Meys
ParticipantWow!
http://mainly28s.com
wargames review site...Olaf Meys
ParticipantWhat rules are you/will you be using?
http://mainly28s.com
wargames review site...Olaf Meys
ParticipantThese days, solo whenever I can be bothered to set things up.
I have a fortnightly D&D game via Roll20, currently, but no wargames. There’s the possibility of a once-in-a-while game with members of a club two towns over, but nothing confirmed yet.

ParticipantThank you- I have downloaded, but had no time to read yet.

ParticipantWill they work with 28mm?
http://mainly28s.com
wargames review site...Olaf Meys
ParticipantEnjoy!
http://mainly28s.com
wargames review site...Olaf Meys
ParticipantNever. I use what’s at hand, and if they happen to be the right figures, so much the better, but I refuse to kowtow to a company boxing me in.

ParticipantI currently have a 1000-point Bolt Action army on there…

ParticipantRL took a bit longer than expected. Unfortunately the game doesn’t work for me on my slightly older laptop when running in WINE (I use Linux).
That all said, I hope it turns out to be a good one- I will follow, and when I have a newer laptop, I’ll give it another whirl.
http://mainly28s.com
wargames review site...Olaf Meys
ParticipantYah, OK, so I bought it. Offer, too good to resist and all that. Expect questions once I’ve read through it.
http://mainly28s.com
wargames review site...Olaf Meys
ParticipantHardcover or softcover, followed by pdf. Spiral? It’s just WRONG.
http://mainly28s.com
wargames review site...Olaf Meys
ParticipantApologies for the silence, but RL took over from gaming, and will keep me out for a few more days! I expect to return to the fold by middle of next week.

ParticipantWow! Thank you for supporting a luddite! I’m downloading, and will give it a whirl tomorrow.
I’m just frustrated by having to create new identities and passwords and learn new interfaces for six gazillion different social media sites or forums or whatever just because.
http://mainly28s.com
wargames review site...Olaf Meys
ParticipantI’d be interested, but I refuse to sign up to yet another bleeding social network.
http://mainly28s.com
wargames review site...Olaf Meys
ParticipantI’m still interested.
http://mainly28s.com
wargames review site...Olaf Meys
ParticipantStill following this.
http://mainly28s.com
wargames review site...Olaf Meys
ParticipantHmmmm- interesting.
http://mainly28s.com
wargames review site...Olaf Meys
ParticipantOh dear- that makes me a little concerned. I very strongly dislike any card-based mechanics…
Still, I’d love to hear more before I make a final call on them.
http://mainly28s.com
wargames review site...Olaf Meys
ParticipantSounds like it’s right up my street, particularly the solo from the outset idea.
I’ll be following this for sure. The only real question for me is about the mechanics. Do you plan to use any cards?
http://mainly28s.com
wargames review site...Olaf Meys
ParticipantInteresting- what figures are they?
http://mainly28s.com
wargames review site...Olaf Meys
ParticipantVery nice!
http://mainly28s.com
wargames review site...Olaf Meys
ParticipantHmmmmm- let’s see.
Obviously, wargaming, as I’m posting here.
I can also add building 1/48th models of aircraft, (re-)watching old sci-fi movies, collecting and (re-)reading classic sci-fi and fantasy books, cats (I have three of them), the occasional board-game, and, until I stuffed myself up physically, loads of DIY and garden-related things. Also, add things like studying history (AD950-1200 and 1900-1945), visiting historical sites, SCUBA diving, and baking.
