I might use that on TNP. :loopy:

On the other hand I did use rules written by old gits. I sent off postal orders for catalogues and after 21 days wrote another letter saying where is my catalogue and then 14 days later perused the cyclostated pice of ***** that arrived with a snotty letter saying this is a hobby you know. Next I sent my father's cheque off and waited. Two months later a box of oddly shaped metal would arrive ready to be filed and scraped into a simulacrum of the photo in Military Modelling and by then you had forgotten why you wanted the bloody things in the first place.
Ah the joy!
It was all so much better in the Good Old Days! :evil:

Ah. Drilling out armpit tumors in pikemen and musketeers. Kids today. Don’t know how good they have it.

I love BP and hail caesar. Simple, fun and give a decent result.

I can't understand the snobbery against them, or the claims they are less "realistic" than more involved, boring rules.

My personal opinion based on people I've met and forum chat is any one who doesn't like them is badically a cunt who has their head up their own arse.

I think Fire&Fury probably hit the best ground between "you can kind of pretend this may accidentally resemble how a battle was fought" and "It's actually playable in one evening", but I dont mind BP either.

Only gripe is the movement rates are too high I guess.

Of course, Bill will ban Begemont for politics, but the rest of that thread isn’t political in the slightest. Let’s just repeat Begemont’s comment to Hispanic Danny as it is sure to be deleted:

Who gave you the franchise to define who or what is "American"? Are you like Louis XIV, who declared "I am the state", in that whatever agrees with your views is true Americanism and those Americans who think you're full of half-baked prejudices and other assorted nonsenses are not "Americans"? For someone, you, who has expressed openly fascist ideas on this site to claim to be capable of judging what American values are is risible.


Hat’s off!

I wonder how far the collateral damage will spread, how many accounts will be talking to Gwen by tomorrow? One or a dozen?

I thought standard procedure was "freeze page".

Yeah, I've been wondering about that. How do you freeze a page?
