What ruleset do you use in your last game?

[Lord Kermit of Birkenhead]

No - most of my 3mm stuff is Airfix ships, so plastic and upto 18" long.

Here - some Iraqi T72s:


3mm is great - perfect for scrapping on the coffee table 
Fast to paint & my last battlegroup (BAOR) - at about 3000pts for CWC cost me £13 

I've got loads of moderns for CWC in 3mm:
2008 South Ossetia: Georgia v Russia
1987: BAOR v Russia
Guilf War 1: US v Iraqi
1995 (what-if) Swedish v Russia

£13. Now I'm interested - is that using Osmy Whatyacallit figures?

Yep - from 1to600 miniatures: you can buy items singly (rather than in the 'standard' packs of 15) - tell 'em I sent you

Hi

1) Regiment of foote

2) Early war royalist vs early war parliamentarian (10mm of course).

3) yes

4) about 6 games with these rules now and it feels we`ve been playing them for years.

[Nick the Lemming]

Several of us here in Toronto have 3mm armies too from O8, they're really good models, and incredibly cheap too.

My latest game was last night, using Bolt Action. You can read about it on my blog: http://nickthelemming.wordpress.com/

Here's a pic of the battlefield towards the end:

Looks like I have been sleeping in 1987, then!  Never knew the BAOR went to war at that time!

You must be a heavy sleeper 

Looks like I missed the "what-if" from that one 

[barbarian]

1) What ruleset do you use in your last game?
The Battlefield : miniature modern warfare.
2) What armies were confronted?
Modern Us, versus Modern SAS, versus Talibans.
3) Did you feel comfortable with the ruleset?
Yeah, it's pretty straight forward. Action points.
4) and... was the first time do you use the ruleset?
Third, I guess.

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

1) Black Powder (last night) 
2) French II & III Corps attacking Prussian VIII Corps in 1870
3) Definitely, we only looked inside the main rules about twice in 3.5 hours!
4) Definitely used a lot, it falls open on the 'blunder' table!

[fred.]

1) Warmaster Fantasy
2) Araby vs Dogs if War vs Chaos vs Lizardmen in a king of the hill style game
3) No, not really. Despite all of us having played loads of Warmaster there are still too many bits that we can't  remember / agree on.
4) no lots of previous games.

[Chad]

1. Patriots & Loyalists
2. Americans bs British
3. Enjoyed them. Straightforward to learn and with some
     Interesting ideas.
4. First time used. Part of AWI rule try- outs

[Phobos]

1) De Bellis Magistrorum Militum
2) Alexander Macedonian and Saka (Battle of Jaxartes)
3) With the rulesets, yes, but the scenario itself needs loads of improvements.
4) DBMM, less than a year, but I know the basic mechanics of DBA and DBM lot of time ago.

[Luddite]

Interesting Phobos.  How do you find DBMM?  As long time tournament level DBM players we gave it a go and really found it a struggle.   

[mollinary]

1) Locally modified Regimental Fire and Fury.
2)  Austrians and Prussians for 1866, battle was a development of Skalitz with two Austrian Corps (VIII and IV) and one Prussian (V + one brigade of VI). About 3-3500 Pendraken figures deployed.
3) Yes, increasingly, but still ironing out teething problems (in the modifications, not the basic rules).
4) Have now used them seven times, and look to do more for some scenarios from Koniggratz.

[Nosher]

Last nights game:

1.  Bolt Action
2.  British Commando's v Weird War germans
3.  Yes, enjoyed it as it was a playtest for some home brewed weird war additions which has helped tweak the stats
4.  Almost a dozen games under my belt now

Up tonight - Space Hulk!!  

[Maenoferren]

The One Ring
Heroes against Goblins and wargs
Yes enjoyed it, the heroic types got a bit possed and needed a bit of help from a wandering Ranger who had been tracking the Goblins
First time used it in anger, read it many times and ran multiple combats to practice the rules. We had a few teething troubles until we realised we were misunderstanding one of the rules.

[Last Hussar]

Dux Brittanica
Saxons v Britons
Like them - wondering if 'finding loot' is too difficult though
3rd game

[cameronian]

Field of Battle (Piquet lite) 1866 house variant
1866 Austro Prussian War
Very good
Fought 10 battles now, tweaking as we go, pretty much a wrap now.

Last week we tried out British Grenadier. An excellent of rules. Could be better explained, but worth the effort. Not a fast play set though.
