hello all,

i wasnt too sure where to post this, so i thought here was as good a place as any.

I recently painted up two small forces for some games set during the horus heresy, i made up some very simple rules for my two kids, and we had a battle last night.


Emperors Children predator gets knocked out on turn 1!

It was good fun and showed you dont need loads of figures and a huge table for an entertaining game.  For the full report look here:

Cheers for reading

Steve.

Great way to start the new recruits! Perfect way to learn is with some small scale skirmishes to get the hang of the game! KUDOS!

You would be surprised just how many of us started with similar 'wargames' made up by ourselves with plastic toy soldiers and toy bricks that were used to 'create damage' :)

My introduction to Epic were these toys:

Mega Force

These were pretty much 6mm size, and when i saw an Epic demo game in a GW store in 92, I was hooked! Some of them might actually still be good for proxies.
