He used two 2' square boards that had bombed out buildings. It was great, each side moved just a few soldiers around the board and didn't know where the other side was at all. Lots of suspense as a 17 year old kid.

The only ...Sounds excellent. This blog is so good!<br /><br />The only thing I don't like is it's hard to read a bunch of entries at once if i get behind because of the "click for more " way it's set up.<br /><br />Does it have to be that way or can you switch to standard format?Zak Sabbathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08812410680077034917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6521849845513719910.post-61123725447929965262012-04-14T17:58:53.326-07:002012-04-14T17:58:53.326-07:00My copy of Follow Me is long gone, I'm afraid....My copy of Follow Me is long gone, I'm afraid. Peter later co-founded The Companions, a 3rd-party publisher of D&D support material. He had a successful career as a painter of historical and fantasy miniatures and retired somewhere down south.<br />The best way to try wargaming is to find a local con and join a game or two. The combined attraction of strategy game and visual spectacle is hard to beat!Doughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04871235554044658552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6521849845513719910.post-51298075476556272212012-04-14T13:27:00.625-07:002012-04-14T13:27:00.625-07:00That sounds like a hell of a lot of fun!
There...That sounds like a hell of a lot of fun!<br /><br />There's no possible way, with or without copyright infringement, I could read those rules is there? I've been googling but finding little. It's apparently super obscure and everyone talking about it seems to have met the author. Maybe if he's still alive he could be persuaded to put them up on lulu or something. <br /><br />It's too bad. I know even if I could read them, my sloppy experiments as Ref wouldn't compare at all to playing the game with it's own creator. Especially if there weren't any example scenarios in the book. <br /><br />Something about wargaming has never clicked for me. I've always been curious and have taken peeks at Chainmail and Hordes of the Things, but I'm missing some kind of je ne sais quoi. Foundation, I guess.<br /><br />I'm open to pointers or suggestions for other games to start with. Does anything like Matthew Finch's Quick Primer for Old School Gaming exist for wargames?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
