(Or should we go for TW-Flat? :) Hi Phil! I've put together some sample cards in Powerpoint, along with my thoughts on the game. How can I send these to you? ...
Hi All, What an inspired set of rules! I am a great Battle Cry and Mem 44 player (and soon to be ancients command and colours as well!) but really wanted a...
Hi All, I gave the rules a run out today with my 10 year old daughter. What a blast! I do not have a hexed set up yet so I was using 4 inches as being a hex....
... Dave, oops, I realized I never answered this! Anyway, if you send the files to me, I can put them on the website of teh group, or you can post them...
Hi, I'm really glad you liked the rules. I've been using them myself for more than 2 years now, and have experimented quite a bit with different options and...
Here's a game report of a game we tried last night. Also, we used a variant of the activation sequence. Details of the scenario can be found in the files...
It was a really interesting game. Phil set up a very good scenario which set plenty of problems for the 'human players' (Eddy and I tried to be human) in ...
I added some new photos in the photo Section of a game of TeWapen that was played this weekend (15 July 2006). The game was run by a friend of mine, who wanted...
I posted a new version of the Te Wapen rules. Most of the ideas we have developed and playtested over the past year or so have been included. The most notably...
I'm using the hex-based terrain from kallistra: http://www.kallistra.co.uk/ The hexes measure approx. 10cm from side to side. I've also drawn my own hex-based...
Thank you! They offer very nice hexex and terrain, but their shipping costs are too high. ... series you see ... squares, giving ... this, I cut ... fill out...
Since I didn;t post anything on Te Wapen for a long time, here's a small update on things: - Games are still being played by my group, but lately we have ...
Hi Phil & Everybody. Merry Christmas! I just thought I'd send a quick message to tell you I've finally got around to playing my first games of Te Wapen. I've...
Dave, Nice to hear you enjoyed the rules! I look forward to seeing your pictures and further thoughts. Te Wapen really is more of an 'engine' that you can tune...
Wow - I've just uploaded about thirty photos. I took more... but I think thirty tells the story well enough! (Phew!). I'll do a full battle report tomorrow....
... Dave, I like your setup. The 2D paper figures look really nice. One of my plans to set up a game with old-style flat German tinfigures at some point ;-) ...
Oooh! Those Hotz mats are very nice, and the price works out at around 28 quid for a 6ft by 4ft mat. That's much better value than the Kallistra terrain. I'm...
Happy New Year Everyone!! Apologies for the delay in posting this: Sunday was much busier than I anticipated, and we had surprise visitors on New Year's Day,...
... We usually play that spell that everything in the hex is affected, so if a wizard would be in the same hex as a unit, he's frozen as well. ... Yeah, I...
... Yes, individual units wandering all around the battlefield can be a problem. We experienced that too when we using the simple activation sequence. That's...
That was the one I was the least comfortable about, and could have changed the game entirely. Interesting. Well, now we know! ;o) Thanks for the answer, Phil....

Hi Phil! Played my second game on Saturday night with a mate of mine (he missed the first game over Christmas). This time we used v24 of the rules, and tried...
Hi Dave, To be honest, I'm still experimenting with the activation sequence now and then :-), so just to say that we haven't fully converged to a good solution...
(grin) I rarely make a firm decision after just one go at something anyway (Other than playing WHFB...) I'll certainly give it another go and see how I feel...
Hi everyone!! I finally got around to uploading the 'TW-Squished' stuff I've had on my hard drive for ages. Basically, this is a concept I had ever since I...
I removed offending posters and messages. Hopefully things do not get too bad, otherwise I'll activate the feature where joining is only possible after...
