Hello Everyone! I've been miniature gaming for over 26 years, and I'm really impressed by what I see in Impetus. I have my figures based by WRG standards, so I...
Hi Steve, welcome on board! Yes (Basic) Impetus allow you to create nice dioramas and save figure where required, but of course also WRG bases work as well. A...
The idea is to link the 2009 competitions (Impetus or Basic Impetus) in a "world league". In 2009 it will be experimental so that the idea can be better tuned...
