Diving into 10mm head first: project log

[getagrip]

Just one point til the 20th century there were no fast colours - so most was green, grey and brown.

It's fantasy,  who cares?

And Orcs are GREEN.

Only GW Orcs. Real orcs are shades of "swarthy."

"Real orcs?"

You don't go in to town much on Friday and Saturday nights then grips?

Bands of them roam the streets, wearing their pointy, orange and white, helmets, chanting their guttaral war-cry (Heypalwhuty'lookin'at?) and making their regurgitated offerings to the gods of the gutter.

I thought it's Nobby who lives in Runcorn

Nah, he's more pink and shiny.

Thread Necromancy at its best! Sorry for vanishing all of a sudden. A friend and I decided to produce a 28mm skirmish game and I've been pouring all my spare time into that for a while.

I'm ready to head back to the land of tiny dudesmen! I'll be posting a few picks of the projects I've been working on and expanding on some of my plans. So stay tuned for more updates (including my new "micro-table")!

Great news

[BeardedHammer]

Here is my project I started today. This is my 24"x30" game table that I am calling my micro-table. I made it from an end table that the dogs had chewed on and a table top from work, so total cost is free at the moment I'm planning to add a detachable space on each side for the dead pile and dice rolling, as well as a shelf below for modular terrain.

As far as my miniatures, there has been zero progress, but I'm starting to work on my fantasy army again to get the ball rolling. I'm ready to see them all in formation and painted up!

Other projects I will be working on soon will be 6mm napoleonic british. I may post a few pics, but will keep it to a minimum so the thread stays on track. And if anyone is interested in a 28mm skirmish game that lets you create your army and use any models send me a message and I'll get you the link to our page.

I hope to post an update of some kind tomorrow night, so stay tuned and tell me what you think!

Also, does anybody have any experience with the Pike and Shotte rules from Warlord Games?

I'm quite the fan of the Black Powder and I've heard that they are similar and have yet to read through them. I'd like to use them for my 10mm fantasy/medieval army.

They are annoyingly similar, as are Hail Caeser. If you like Black Powder you will like Pike and Shotte.

[BeardedHammer]

Why do you say annoyingly similar?

Cause if you play one you will carry over the specific rules from t subconsciously. Instances are the move distances, and initiative distances.  They are all excellent sets.
