Also when you get back from your deployment, if this skirmish stuff is doing well here, I'd love to open that blog with you! The name is brilliantly fun!<br /><br />Cheers for now, next post will probably go up Wed!<br />-JimBig Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10363832056474538807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4101762574768178801.post-23320085379264450112014-02-03T07:58:50.587-05:002014-02-03T07:58:50.587-05:00Great article Jim.

As I have gotten older (and this busier) and as 40k has been pumped up to include more models and armies, I have found two things a) I am not as willing to buy into a force due to the time needed to make it look good and b) I would much rather not play ANY game for more than say .... An hour and a half (opposed to 4+ hours). This makes skirmish (or as I'd call it, Coffee Table Wargaming, hey we should start a blog called that hahaha) very attractive to me because I can have friends over, break out a small table and terrain and whip it on with two beautiful forces ... Also if the game gets one-sided, it's only that way for half an hour at most and not for 2-3 hours. Sometimes I feel sorry for 2/3 of the people I play at tournaments because I know they feel that way from turn two on and that is a terrible, boring place to be.TJ Atwellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01304177224607153451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4101762574768178801.post-56781058256287032952014-02-02T13:17:44.910-05:002014-02-02T13:17:44.910-05:00The Hobbit is a great skirmish system.

The pricetag is high, but I prefer it to 40k or Fantasy.CrAzY424https://www.blogger.com/profile/04046206772087768569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4101762574768178801.post-49729414478722528952014-02-02T13:04:06.385-05:002014-02-02T13:04:06.385-05:00Great post.

I am a big fan of skirmish games, which is why I mostly play Post Apocalypitc games. <br /><br />Terrain has always been essential and my tables compared to 40K are terrain heavy. I look forward to reading the next part. mattblackgodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09611987054053476126noreply@blogger.com
