I am gearing up for trying out a new set of rules, When Nightmares Come, the latest offering in the Osprey blue book series.
Although the rules are set in the contemporary era, I am going for a 1920s pulp setting, to match minis and terrain in my collection.
My random musings so far are on the blog

Interesting enough, so far. (err... this might sound different than what I intend? This is where autism messes with my head. I've read your blog posts and am interested to read further.)

Do the rules provide an optional Solo mechanic, or when you play Solo, will you be adding in your own methods?
Rimmer: "Aliens."

Lister: "Oh God, aliens... Your explanation for anything slightly peculiar is aliens, isn't it?

Rimmer: "Well, we didn't use it all, Lister. Who did?"

Lister: "Rimmer, aliens used our bog roll?"

Thank you chaps.

Roy, no problem. I am used to dealing with Last Hussar, so I am used to it! ;D
Plus my sister is fairly well along the spectrum!

The rules are designed for solo or co-op play, so no problem there.

Oi! I've got a medical diagnosis and everything.  Stop picking on the disabled,  that's why we have Orcs.
I have neither the time nor the crayons to explain why you are wrong.

Thank you. That is interesting to know. I'll make a note of the rule book's name.
