Two things:

Firstly, it needs a better name.

Secondly, would you be interested in playing it relatively frequently, if so, how much would you be prepared to spend on an army? I worked out that at the moment a 500pts army is about £30, although that may change as I am adding rules for leadership, so officers will be a requirement.

Also, bases.

There are several sizes available, although they definitely should be rectangular. We would only mount a few strips on each base (a strip is about 5X20mm), in the interests of reducing costs. The options are:

40X20mm, with only 1 or 2 strips of infantry

60X30mm, with 2 to 4 strips.

The size of unit we have been using is 50X30mm, and I thought that worked quite well, so I'm in favour of 60X30.

60x30mm for MH

60X60mm for FOG and C26H


3 phases now: orders, movement, combat.
NEED NEW NAME! DEAR GOD HELP ME PLEASE I HATE THE NAME!

MH is based on (semi)historical models.

C26H (26th Century Hoedown[see, needs changing]) based on any 6mm Sci-Fi models, although I used the Command Horizon ones to make the rules.


Come in tomorrow, even if it's just for an hour, and I'll show you the rules changes.

- "OW THAT REALLY HURT!"
- "BANZAI!!!"

I quite like the sound of the elephants one, but it still needs a little work.

Changing C26H to 30X30mm bases, with 1 vehicle/4 infantry per base. Much cheapness for armies now.
