I was wondering if anyone has been able to do anymore work on the 40k Battle Companies stuff? I found the Imperial Guard entry in the files section, but there...

Hello, I've just downloaded the Pirates rules pdf, and very nice it looks too. I'm actually using Legends of the Old West rather than LOTR (the Indians lists...
Paul, Dave on the list wrote these & you can find the rules for the boats in White Dwarf a few issues ago as well as the One Ring rule book for LotR. What...
... LOTR already has a rule for poisoned arrows, from the Haradrim. I'm not sure what the policy is on quoting rules from the book so I'll say it's on page...
Use the poison rules for Haradrim in LoTR. Re-roll all 1s to wound. Terry http://ideas.live.com/programpage.aspx?versionId=5d21c51a-b161-4314-9b0e-4911fb2b2e6d...
I have been toying with the idea of a shieldwall formation. Basically, a group of infantry models declares they are moving into shieldwall formation during...
Your formation is too deep, you have a pike block. You should have a shield wall of a single rank and optional a second rank which could also strike. I would...
... Why do you think it too deep? Many Dark Age troops habitually formed up 4 or more ranks deep. 4 ranks is very shallow for a Pike block - 16 is normal....
How about allowing the front rank to use the 'Shielding' rule. The back rank to use the 'spear attack' from behind the shielding rank. That way you are not...

I see that there is a medieval variant and a gladaitor variant. Both look very well done. Has anyone done an ancients list including Romans, Celts, Germans,...
I've been working on some lists and special rules for Late Romans. Not exactly the time period you are requesting, but you might be able to use the troops I...
Hey thanks Sam--this is a great start for me. I plan on doing the following lists as a beginning: Romans Germans Celts Picts Then I may add Thracians ...
IMO any barbarian troops can be lumped under one entry and you can give them different weapon options. They are all pretty much the same. The Dacians have...
This group appears to cover LOTOW as well as LOTR. I have done some work on an Australian colonial variant of LOTOW, a couple of examples of which have...
I am keen on the idea, and was only thinking today that a Bushranger supplement would be great... but seeing as you can get bushranger figures or policemen, i...
I do remember Nic Robson and Mike Broadbent of Eureka Miniatures in Melbourne showing off some Kelly Gang figures (ie in armour) and some troopers. They may...
I've had it my mind to do the same, so your attempts would save me all the work! I saw in the Showdown(?) suppliment that it wiped off Australian Colonial as...
Hello Greg, Thanks for the interest. Yes, of course this country's colonial history shared some broad parallels with the American experience, but it also had a...
