In addition to this many have resurrected/kept alive a lot of the old Specialist Games like Blood Bowl, Warmaster, Man O'War. This blog should be a good jump off point http://oldhammerinthenewworld.blogspot.com/ the guys in England are having their 3rd get together this weekend and the 2nd US one is next weekend. I am way behind on getting my army together.Seanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15428727065347379281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1194255716971534690.post-43215827889376200562015-07-30T17:10:31.730-04:002015-07-30T17:10:31.730-04:00Glad you stopped by, Sean and I'm glad you enj...Glad you stopped by, Sean and I'm glad you enjoy the blog. Please let me know if you try the M&M rules out. I have played a few games of them and enjoy them very much. They are like an "old school" version of Black Powder I think (and based on Charles Grant's "The War Game"). I am looking forward to see how the Oldhammer USA weekend goes. I'll be tuning into your blog.<br /><br />What exactly is Oldhammer? Seems like something I'd like...<br /><br />Also - instead of wargamer, I'm teetering dangerously close to "rules collector" instead of gamer... Gotta play more games!Disgruntled Fusilierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10995610821904415726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1194255716971534690.post-78128794546108927782015-07-30T09:44:11.398-04:002015-07-30T09:44:11.398-04:00Been awhile since I checked in.

I have dutifully collected your M&M rules and will repeat with R&R once the mad dash to Oldhammer USA Weekend is over. Of course I still need to stop collecting rules and actually play some games.Seanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15428727065347379281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1194255716971534690.post-18301393266756589022015-07-28T21:30:19.902-04:002015-07-28T21:30:19.902-04:00add reading rules to that too.add reading rules to that too.Disgruntled Fusilierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10995610821904415726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1194255716971534690.post-57141895947813802592015-07-28T21:29:53.037-04:002015-07-28T21:29:53.037-04:00Paul,
