Title: Liberate The Temple - a remote random fantasy bash.
Post by: Duke Speedy of Leighton on 16 December 2020, 09:53:23 AM
In these feverish grey days of madness, it's one step beyond our house to get a game, so last week I gathered remotely some of the guys at the house of fun and on the wings of a dove we played a fantasy game, based around One Hour Wargames. One better day I will be driving in my car without embarressment to play real people, but that is one step beyond madness, so until then it is still the prince of games.
Anyway, the report is here:-

Don't know about OHW, but there's Grimdark Future: Firefight (https://onepagerules.com/portfolio/grimdark-future-firefight) from One Page Rules, or Chain Reaction 2015 (https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/162284/Chain-Reaction-2015) from Two Hour Wargames?

Good rumble, though all those apostrophes must have been a right pain in the throat

Are you using One-hour Skirmish Wargames by John Lambshead  or One-Hour Wargames by Neil Thomas?

This is very silly. Fantastic. Great fun. I love the names. The apostrophe is under valued IMHO.







I still have some of those dungeon tiles somewhere.

More like Xhosa, I'd have thought or the language of some insectoid alien.

I think my GZG 15mm "Chitters" may just have found a voice! :)

Good news.
Break out the playing cards and enjoy.
We have a pile of AVBCW mods if you want too.

If I ever got round to AVBCW I think I would raise a small Imperial Fascist League Camel Corp force
