in MW multiple combat where is the rout and pushed back direction for the unit that lost the melee ? For example a unit that is fighting in front and flank and...
... Perry's answer: If a unit has an enemy unit to its front and an enemy unit to its right flank, then move the routed unit on a line 45 degrees from the the...
I have been editing the draft of the rulebooks for several weeks now. Much of the work is studying other rulebooks for ideas for magic spells and troops types,...
Anybody know why Magweb is kind of "stuck", no new items after September, can't be gotten a hold of via email? A victim perhaps of the "Great Depression" which...
The deadline for getting into the PEL for Cold Wars is this Friday, 12 December. Sorry about the late notice, but I didn't realize the shortness of time...
Welcome to the world of idiot game designers! Basing standards are still in the 1980's. Unfortunately, the figures being manufactured today are MUCH larger...
George, As others have already written, the 60 mm wide base works. I have 28mm Galatian infantry that are mounted 4 per stand and they fit on a 60mm wide base...
There has actually been some 25mm figures that were always difficult to fit on bases. Ral Partha made figures with large round metal bases that had to be cut...
Terry noted that the solution to this was remarkably simple. You just put a card the size of the larger base under the smaller base. Not that it really makes...
The real problem is the legacy of the WRG basing from 1970 when the introduced their Second Edition. The switch of some troops to a nebulous Light-Medium or...
Thanks all for the comments and advice. I have ordered and gotten 60MM bases for my 25s and they fit quite well. I still have a LOT of painting to do before my...
There are two reasons why I use magnetic "tape" on my bases. This keeps the figures fairly secure in the metal toolboxes that I use for storage. It also...
Wishing everyone a very best during this holiday season regardless of which holidays that you recognize. I hope that everyone enjoys festivities in spite of...
I have set up a new yahoo group for getting figures created for the Italian Wars that are not already available. These would be Swiss for the Italian Wars. The...
In the rules I believe bombards fall into the "artillery" classification. However, in a recent WOTR's game a bombard was moved in one turn then fired the next....
Pete, My recommendation is to define bombards as immobile artillery, which cannot move after they are "emplaced" or deployed. This would cover any heavy...
Pete, Perry is correct. Found this to help in your argument with fellow members. A bombard is a type of medieval cannon or mortar, used chiefly in sieges for...
If you have ever considered gaming Samurai vrs mongols in 28mm or 10th- 14th Century Samurai Civil wars, please consider these figures. I have added 28mm...
I have transferred all of the QRS for the various rulebooks to the QRS folder in the Files section. These include AW, MW, RW, LW, NW and FW. I shall be adding...
Saga 116 (December 2008) was late getting to the printer for various reasons, primarily preoccupation with other priorities. The next newsletter will be ready...
Hi Perry, I just had a look at the FW QRS. Doesn't seem any different to MW? There's no mention of magic in the turn sequence and nothing about monsters, etc...
Graham, You are correct that there is little to distinguish the FW from the MW QRS. This will change as I modify the charts. FW is in the playtesting phase...
Hello, I am looking for some 15mm early medieval figures. Have not found them yet so I asking the group if anyone had seen these types of figures. Monk...
Try Peter Pig's fantasy Arabs for Imams. There are some possibly suitable figures. I also have the Museum figures which are reasonable regular clergy (i.e. ...
