... I just joined the group. I plan to use Impetus rules with 20mm plastics on 25mm bases. I used to use 20mm plastics on 25mm DBX bases for WAB, worked great,...
I also am taking a look at Impetus. Well, Basic Impetus. I'm surprised at how much support the intro set has. I read the rules and like what I have read. I'm...
Basic Impetus is free! provides a good introduction to the rules and more army lists than you can shake a stick at. The full rule book adds some more rules,...

C&C Ancients is a good fun game, just not to my personal taste. For some reason I have yet to fathom I own C&C Ancients, Battle Cry, Battle Lore and Memoir 44...
CC:A. When you say a stand replaces each block, are you saying 16 (inf) figures a hex? Do you use the same map as the boardgame? Does all that fit? -- ... ...

I too am a big fan of C&C:Ancients. According to the designer it was intended to be a miniatures game. The decision to use blocks rather than miniatures was a...
Thanks Tom! Very nice. I'm sure to find some use for them, even in wargaming. I see also that you are working on ancient camels. Maybe Parthian or Palmyran...

Tom , you sir are MUCH to organized to be a proper gamer! I will be notifying the local gaming authorities to IMMEDIATELY stamp out this sort of behavior...
