It's hard explaining historical periods to him, he just bangs his soar and scares the other figures in nearby boxes.Mad Padrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00410143683610813671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6519665561624985779.post-20991235870477578152014-11-25T05:28:24.689-08:002014-11-25T05:28:24.689-08:00I should add some terms and conditions: I've o...I should add some terms and conditions: I've only played with the first three editions of Warhammer.

In the meantime, you can do what we did back in the day, before Dux was out: keep the GW rules for fighting, morale and magic but use card activation for movement. Each Unit gets a card, each Named Character gets a card. Units activated on their card moves or shoot, units activated by a nearby Hero on his card gets to assault as well.Thomas Nissvikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11635793244352536541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6519665561624985779.post-24751644411003986112014-11-25T01:27:43.097-08:002014-11-25T01:27:43.097-08:00Izzy is certainly the star of this show, great loo...Izzy is certainly the star of this show, great looking game Michael.
