After posting on WarHammer I thought I'd see if anyone is interested in playing a block game or 2.
The 1st one is Hammer of the Scots.
From the Columbia Games website:
“Hammer of the Scots brings the rebellion of the Braveheart, William Wallace, to life. As the English player, you seek to pacify Scotland by controlling all the important noble lords. The Scottish player also seeks the allegiance of nobles to support a difficult struggle for freedom.”
The 2nd one is Wizard Kings.
Also from the Columbia Games website:
“Wizard Kings is an exciting fantasy battle game with armies of elves, dwarves, orcs, undead, and three human armies (feudal, barbarian, amazon). Players customize their armies and fight for control of strategic cities and terrain on geomorphic maps.”
I’ve not played any of these games before so it’ll be interesting to see how it goes. Both of these games have their rules available online and VASSAL modules for online/PBEM play.
Hammer of the Scots – Rules here http://www.columbiagames.com/cgi-bin/query/cfg/zoom.cfg?product_id=3215 and the VASSAL mod here http://www.vassalengine.org/community/index.php?option=com_vassal_modules&task=display&module_id=168&page=Files
Wizard Kings – Rules here http://www.columbiagames.com/cgi-bin/query/cfg/zoom.cfg?product_id=8501 and the VASSAL mod here http://www.vassalengine.org/community/index.php?option=com_vassal_modules&task=display&module_id=83&page=Files
I do not own either of the games so only VASSAL PBEM. If you are interested in a game reply here and we can get a game going.
I am also interested in what your thoughts are regarding these games.
