I find it a lot easier and satisfying to skirmish the Napoleonic wars. I cannot paint enough men for a big battle! I haven't tried War of the Rings rules yet,...
Hi, admitedly its based on what formation our group can field. Feel free to amend as needed, I've been looking at the best way to do this, but if you copy the...
Ahoy! I uploaded set of rules I have been working for a few months now. It's a version of the Legends of the Old West rule set. The aim was to make a fun game...
Hi McMordain, I'm very interested in this setting. I will be only to pleased to help but it will have to fit around my very busy life. I have design and layout...

Thanks for the update Dave. How are you treating Optio's in the WotR variant?...
For the machines, how about using chariots or Mumak as a start point and add appropiate weapons and abilities. Maybe everytime one suffers damage youcould...
Currently all I have done is to give an extra Might point to the formation, seems about right to me allowing for a little more command control, I don't think...
I like that list maker. Some of the stuff doesn't work as I am running Mac office but it will work as far as list building. Apparently, the macros are...
... Hey Dave, going over the Celt sheet, noticed that - Noble Warriors (non-mounted) have a max. of 6, yet drop down goes to 4, and Noble Warriors (mounted)...
... Hi John, thanks for that. I changed the drop down menues to suit the models I actually have, this way the sheet also keeps track of the companies I have....
Hi, this group looks like a great resource for LoTR based gaming, I am hoping to play skirmish games with my individually based Romans, Normans etc. In the...
Both are essentially the same. The only major difference is the Mines of Moria book (smaller of the two) is more accurate when it comes to the Mordor Catapult...
... Welcome Paul. As Tim say's for skirmish games the best bet is to find on eBay the small rulebook that comes with Mines of Moria set. WoTR deals with...
SATURDAY to SUNDAY 4th & 5th July Doors open at 9.00am. The WINGS Social Club – Airbus, Broughton, Cheshire, CH4 0DR. Entry only £1.00 for Adults, 50p for...
I like the Napoleonic variant, and want to use it for my Historicon game. I had a quasteion about rifles and muskets. The musket takes a shooting phase to...
Thanks, I'll let you know how it goes. ... From: lotrhithero <lotrhithero@...> Subject: [LOTRvariants] Re: Napoleonics To: LOTRvariants@yahoogroups.com...
Hello, all! Found Big_Hagar's stats conversion for WAB to LORT among the messages. IS the LOTR: Fellowship edition of the rules enough to run Viking raids,...
... The Fellowship rules do not include rules for cavalry, but that shouldn't really mater to you, but the rules have changed a fair amount, no reason why you...
... I can hardly remember the changes to be honest, I'd not say they are better, just slightly different in the way they handle things and stat changes. For...
And the Courage test for 'On Your Own' is void. (Probably because of the 'remove model failing C test - change) I like the original version better for small...
I'm pretty sure this will have been raised before. In a few weeks I am planning a multi player romans vs germans game. Just reading through Britain Invaded and...
The second rank adds an additional attack to the lead (fighting) model. The supporting spearmen is not considered to be engaged unless it is in base contact...
Thanks for the information! Small skirmish is the intent. As in: less than 20 figures per warband/player. Good news: there's a LOTR (modified) game at...
... Auxilia spears, yes, as this means that if they (and legionairy's) can keep formation they should be able to handle the Celts, but once the fight developes...
