I like HC it seems to take most of the fiddly bits out of Warmaster, but retains the command uncertainty.

The break test mechanism can be a bit too random so we have a house rule to tone the extremes down a bit. Movement is best described as free and easy (but no more so than WM)

HC is one of the more enjoyable rule sets I have ever played, I would recommend it to anyone.

I like hc, but you have to balance forces rather than give them every skill in the book or it lives up to the club nickname of Hail Cheesey!

I agree not too many special rules, though I do like the ones which make your troops worse  :d

I agree! that was why our halfling goblin game was so enjoyable, only two units perside really had anything worthwhile!
for instance the halfling swordsmen had two handed weapons, which cap foamw saves at 5 plus, however most of the goblins only had a 5 plus save anyway!  :D
