Quite the collection.
One I hope to be able to duplicate some day.
Do you have a sense for how many folks are planning to attend but are unable to bring troops with them?
Chris
Sadly, I've got no response at all in the "I'm going to play but not bring toys" department.
Most likely, enough will show. If not, I'll drop some of my troops from the game.
Ed
Non Sense!! Blasphamy!
Assign bigger brigades or multiple brigades per person.
The whole point of this was the spectacle. I would hope to draw potentially some folks into gaming this period and this scale of figures and formations.
No?
Chris
How do you REALLY feel? :>
We'll have enough toys...I'm sure of that!
Is there still a plan to gather friday night to discuss the scenario, share libations, assign commands etc?
Chris
Yes, and the practice game as well if interested.
Where? Details...details...
I'll have to see what is close and available.
