The Osprey rules were playable, but a little bland. Covering the French and Indian War through the Civil War is a fair amount of change in technology, tactics, terrain, and combatants. I need to go re-read the rules now that I have tried them, to see if they really work as I thought.
I'd also note this post was very terse; it was an experiment to see if the "blog post by email" feature still works. Apparently it does...
I post a little about my ongoing projects, recent games, how I got to where I am, and where I'm going, as time away from the workbench, and a somewhat busy life, permits. I'll try to keep cooking and ballroom dance down to a minimum, but they do seem to take up a lot of time.
This is my really short, no explanation included, list of projects: 54mm Medieval Mayhem (skirmish), 40mm French and Indian War, 40mm NQSYW, 40mm Renaissance, 25mm Dark Ages (Saxons and Vikings), 25mm Historical Arthurian, 25mm Fantasy, 1/72 scale Bronze Age, 1/72 scale 2nd Punic War, 1/72 scale fantasy (Portable Fantasy Campaign), 6mm Ancients (travel DBA), 6mm Fantasy (travel HotT), 6mm Spanish Civil War.
Still has the old look (a "good thing"). How did you like the Osprey rules?
