True. 20mm soft plastics are a largely untapped resource for wargaming but I have enough terrain in 28mm that makes it a better choice scale wise – and I...
Hey all: I finally got my gaming area up and running and what better way to enjoy it than to play a solo game of Song of Blades and Heroes. It pits the...
very nice batrep. If you want I can "reprint" this in issue 3 of Free Hack (issue 2 is almost complete and we have already a long napoleonic batrep) A ... -- ...
Bren,  Brilliant game report, 16 nail biting turns. How did you manage the 'solo' side of it? I have been toying around with some THW rules tweaks but they...
I solo'd a game recently and found that all you really need to do is play each side unbiased. In other words, when you play a side, try your best to go after...
G'day everyone, As you may or may not know, Ganesha Games and One Monk Miniatures have teamed up. Jim from One Monk will be producing a set of paper miniatures...
Ben, That card back looks nice. My concern, though, is how much ink it would take to print cards like that. Too much color and dark ink, I suspect. Perhaps...
Hi Ben, If they are playing card sized or smaller, I suspect they will work fine. However, heed Andy's warning. They will burn through ink. That's pretty ...

A minor point: The 'lens flare' effect would look better if it was behind the tree. Because of its position relative to the terrain, it looks like it's meant...
I have to say this does not inspire me too much - its a fairly lifeless scene imo. Also way too much ink use required. How about just the game title on its own...
... the 'solo' side of it? I have been toying around with some THW rules tweaks but they just don't seem to fit with the simple SoBH mechanics.... ... Ian: It...
Ok, now I'm confused. I thought it worked like this: Magic-user rolls 3 successes. Uses 1 to move and casts a medium ranged spell (power 2). The magic-user...
Thanks Andy, that is a very good point. Especially because the front will be more important. We are looking at finding a place that does card printing in small...
Thanks again guys! :-) John, they are playing card size and they will print 9 cards to a page. Because as far as I know the PDFs will be locked I don't think...
I have uploaded those samples now for both the front and rear of the card with a white border. I must admit, after staring at the screen for a while comparing...
Thanks apeloverage, I thought because the 'sun' itself was behind the tree and that we were looking at the sun from this side of the tree, the 'flare' would be...
Fair enough. I was thinking of using the rulebook covers for the back of the Special ability cards (so abilities from the base book would have the cover from...
I have uploaded another design. This is a rework of an earlier design to make it useable. The white borders have grown on me and I think this design may be my ...
Now that I've seen the black and white borders, I really like the white borders better. The alternate cover would be good for the up coming Arthurian game....
One of my friends looked how to play with his plastic roman and celts from Warlord Games So i have created profils for Song of Blades game engine You can...
May I humbly advise against using the white borders on the professionally printed cards. Even if these cards wouldn't get the ammount of handleing regular CCGs...
This one looks nice. Simple, but not too static. The battered swordplanted in the ground suggests that there is a story begging to be told. The white borders...
Just wanted to let some of the new folks know that your posts during moderation were arriving in the SPAM filter at the group. That is unusual. I have...
Thanks for the feedback guys. :) So what is more important, the black borders using too much ink? Or the white borders showing wear? It seems like a tough...
