Title: Never Mind the Billhooks
Post by: Raider4 on 31 March 2021, 05:44:41 PM
I remember there being a bit of a buzz around these rules when they came out what, 6 months ago?

Now that I'm currently circling back in their direction, any longer term thoughts? Anybody still playing them? Or tried them a couple of times and moved on (why?)?

Did WI ever release a PDF of the rules? My booklet is not lasting well - very thin shiny paper and staples are not a good mix.

Yes there is a pdf. I still have a few boxes of 28mm WOR so may yet use them. Can't remember where I got them though - direct from WI or Wargame Vault???

They are quite flexible, so you can run bigger games that their 100 point limit suggests and you can have more dynamic situations than just 3 formations facing each other in a straight push and shove - exampled by one of my recent playings'
