Okay I got to preface my response so you understand why ACW is a pink elephant: I hate, loathe, detest, refuse to play Johnny Reb III, and those are the...
Historicon was amazing. The below link has some great photos of the FOW tourny. I opted for the Seminar series and they were great. I attended 8 seminars with...
Hey gang, Brent Olson will be running the Battle of Monongahela using the Woodland War rules at the Source on Saturday. The game will start around the...
Some time back an individual posted about starting a gaming store in St. Cloud and announced that it had openned. Since then, I have not seen any posting...
Tonight I am doing a demo for the lad that watches the store on Tuesdays. He says that he is trying to get the owner to carry WarMachine. I was thinking of...
All, This is a unique opportunity to get into the first game of the first battle of the Great War at the Source on Monday, August 20th, in the month the war ...
What scale are you doing this in? ... first battle ... the war ... various ... of ... who are ... interest). ... Landwehr ... player up to ... Austrians ... ...
Marcel, Well I doubt I can have anything ready by August 20th, I have too many other projects in the works at the moment, please send me an order of Battle for...
One thing to keep in mind is that the Great War Spearhead (GWSH) TOE for a German Infantry Division in 1914 is incorrect. According to the rules author, the AI...
Thanks, Are the plans to start with the Russian Incursions into East Prussia and Austrian Galicia or move ahead to the German Counter-Offensive under...
I think it would be interesting to start with the precursors to Tannenberg in East Prussia. The battles of Stalluponen and Gumbinnen were both German...
Chirs, Thanks. I will be starting with the chrononology on wikipedia> Gumbinnen will be the first and probably a multipart game. Can you paint up your Germans...
Jeff, I will review Chris' input and provide a list back to the group. Chris and I are on the same page with Gubminnen and the second part will require a...
I'm interested. I have a bunch of Jerry's. But isn't Spearhead 15mm? -- Charley "I reject your reality and substitute my own!" ~Adam Savage ... From: "Marcel...
Well, in 15mm I have only USEF and some French tanks. I can buy some Germans and try to paint them but I'd need an army list. Don't think it is doable by the...
I really think Stalluponen is a nice place to start rather than Gumbinnen. It is a smaller action and it features a fairly interesting German flank attack....
Is this going to be a table-top re-enactment of the historical campaign? or a campaign game. Shouldn't the respective commanders pick the battle fields? -- ...
Monday night 'campaigns' have typically consisted of a sequential series of historical re-fights from a particular campaign. I assume that's what Marcel has...
As an outside observer, why would anyone want to paint Germans and or Austrians under your plan? At Stalluponen the German First Corp engaged lead elements of...
... From Memory, so I may have deployments backwards. The German First Corp is seperated into two distinct operational units. The I Division and its eight...
Well, I'll have to skip Battle Tech and 40K and see what's going on. -- Charley "I reject your reality and substitute my own!" ~Adam Savage ... From: "Jeff"...
So it's not really a "campaign game" it's refighting historical battles with in an historical camaign. Which begs the question again...Why would anyone paint...
... camaign. Which begs the question again...Why would anyone paint Germans for that? For fun, perhaps? I dare say I've said the very same thing about any...
All, Thanks for the lively conversation and input-I will take it into account for those who paint or show up ;-). Here is my philosophy: 1.) The tipping...
Charley, my post was intended in part as a response to your earlier comment regarding Marcel's game, but also (ironically) as a commentary upon how we as a...
I have to admit that I have no idea what is going on here. It all started innocently enough with Marcel proposing a series of games... Todd was out of line...
