Highly Recommend!By Emery J. GallantI was lucky to get an advanced copy of this rule system, and I was so impressed, I just bought my own finished copy here on !I have been looking for a system that bridges a gap between the simplicity of Axis Allies Miniatures, and the complexity of Flames of War. This is just one of very few systems I've found that fit that bill, while also filling the criteria of being unique unto itself. I've played many miniatures systems, and through my own Wargaming forum ([...]), have had the privaledge to learn from, and play against the best mini-gamers out there. Based on years of experience, I can also see this system playing at gaming conventions, as it is so easy to learn and teach. To cut to the chase: I strongly recommend you pick this rulebook up and add it to your Arsenal!It plays at Platoon-level, but the scope upon which you play those platoons is only limited to your personal OB of units avaialble. I like that a lot! For me, I will be playing this in 15mm, using Axis Allies Minaitures, Flames of War armor, and Old Glory armor. A vehicle model represents 5-units (ex. 1 model = 5 tanks); while a base of infantry figures equal 30-50 men. This is pretty standard stuff...but what I especially like is that it is also flexible on how you base. Where some systems have a following of players that DEMAND you base only in such a way, only with their miniatures, this is an open-minded system where if you own a huge number of say Axis Allies Minatures (like I do), you can convert your idle a and dust clad gems into a mean, lean fighting machine!The system is heavily dice driven (ten 6-side dice is the norm), encompassing how you move, fight, rally, defend; and used with the systems alternating player action, you remain engaged throughout a typical 2-4 hour game. You are the overall Commander of your side; your platoons assuming to inherently containing it's leaders. The combination of using these Command dice, with a mechanic of Staff Orders (that also allow additional movement and artillery, for instance), give you a system that demands that you make tough decisions throughout the game to achieve your goals.The rulebook is well laid out, and quite maneuverable by a good contents section. Though not a general inclusion in most systems, I like the fact the author took the time to add inspirational quote snippets from Warriors of the past to start each section...it really gets you in the mood. This is a hefty rulebook as well, numbering past 200+ pages, so there is a lot of meat to the system. However, to my relief, the 'meat' was an easy chew! Well thought out and designed, the system is easy to learn. I haven't had a chance to play it yet, but that will happen in short order! I can't wait to play this system.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Thorough, Easy to Follow, and Affordable Miniature WWII RulesBy Todd ReedI joined Jim's team of readers he's recruited to help him test out new ideas and as a resource to be an advance reader (which means a free copy of the rules...however, in this case, I'd bought them before I joined.) and provide a review of what I think.Perhaps many rules writer's do this, but this is my first experience I appreciate a creator looking out for ideas and constructive help in creating their products.To the rules. I downloaded his free set of armor rules (still available as of this writing) and then ended up purchasing the full set, which should say something. As of now, I've only played a small sample solo game of the armor rules. If you download the armor rules you will get a good idea of the flow of the full set which includes infantry, arty, and a few special rules about motorbikes, machine guns, open-topped vehicles etc. He's talking about future books covering more details like airborne, amphibious, etc. It would be nice to have it all in one book, but there's plenty here to keep most gamers busy. And his prices are so reasonable, that I don't mind the idea of paying a little for each release.Oh, there are a few army lists, US, German, Soviet, and Commonwealth - all late war. However, if you go to Jim's website he's been adding lists on his website, lardy style.What I like most about these rules is that he covers them very thoroughly and from the perspective of a gamer. From what you need to play as far as markers onto the most simple steps to begin playing. Perhaps this comes from his computer game programming background where you must be detailed and thorough.That said, they're not complicated. I would say they're more complicated than my favorite set of miniature rules, Blitzkrieg Commander II and less complicated than one of my top five, Command Decision: Test of Battle.I heartily recommend them for gamers looking for miniature rules where the stand = platoon and they want to fight engagements from WWII because of their details and low cost.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Worth far more than the asking price, trulyBy Keith B. TractonBeing a wargamer of longstanding of both board and miniature games, I like to keep my eye out for the new twist on an old rules theme, in this case WWII miniatures rules. Jim Bambra has combined the simplicity of dice pools with the elegance of how they are interpreted, gracefully addressing direct unit command and staff assistance of unit command.The back and forth of combat initiative and execution that is an element of the real world which every system, board or miniatures, strives to bring to the table is effortlessly integrated into the easy but real-feeling systems for movement and combat. All based on 6-sided dice and all easy to learn, easy to execute, and every rule strives to leave the tactics to the players, and not the system. The idea that the attacker and defender are always engaged together to resolve combat keeps this game exciting to my mind. I could go on, but in the end, the price provides more than most games and it is easier to digest and play this than many I have seen. After the first read I was ready to play. Buy this and Enjoy it! Combat HQ is a fast-paced set of rules for playing large-scale World War Two battles. Combat HQ features rapid movement, decisive combat, and exciting decision making. Rapid Command Pulses and opposed dice rolls keep players constantly involved. It uses Command Dice to establish the ebb and flow of combat, and Staff Orders to handle artillery support, smoke missions, and the commitment of Reserves. Combat HQ includes seven combat missions and a campaign system, along with starter battle groups for late war German, Commonwealth, Soviet and US forces. It's playable with 2mm to 28mm figures. About the AuthorJim has designed and developed a wide variety of games such as Warhammer Fantasy Battles, Warhammer 40,000, Star Wars Miniatures, Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay, Dungeons and Dragons, Star Frontiers, GURPS, Star Wars, and TORG. In addition to tabletop games, Jim has also developed games for PCs and consoles: Special Forces, Warzone 2100, Conflict: Desert Storm I II, the Great Escape, Conflict: Vietnam, and Conflict: Global Storm, amongst others. Combat HQ is his latest set of rules. It grew out of Jim's desire to play a fast moving World War Two miniatures game that not only required him to make decisions as an army commander, but also contained sufficient detail to capture the intricacies and complexities of World War Two combat in an entertaining manner. Jim lives in Fuerteventura where he plays a wide range of games from miniature wargames to video games. In his spare time he likes to read, teach Aikido and go walking with his four dogs.

  • Players Helped Develop Computer Games in Britain（Paul Mason）
    A Case Study of the Influence of Fandom: How Role-players Helped Develop Computer Games in Britain（Paul Mason） A Case Study of the InÀuence of Fandom: How Role- players Helped Develop Computer Games in Britain Paul Mason Abstract Fandom is widely regarded as a form of excessive consumption, an essentially reactive activity. Work in the ¿eld of fan studies has drawn attention to its creative aspects, but these are still often deemed to be expanding on or embellishing the work of creative professionals. The present study explores the ambiguity of the boundary between fan creators and professional creators in order to illustrate how fans were instrumental in the creation of a new form of expression. It charts aspects of the history of computer games development in the UK, and shows how that development was driven by the interplay between fans and professionals in related ¿elds. Introduction In a basement room at a school in Britain in the early 1970s sits a strange machine. At ¿rst glance it seems to be a large typewriter, but closer inspection reveals it to be a teleprinter. It is connected to the mainframe computer of the city treasurer’s department. A schoolboy is operating the teleprinter, periodically typing in short commands, and then watching intently as the results of those commands are printed out: a grid formed of dots occasionally replaced by other symbols, with some terse accompanying text and data. The boy is playing Blake's 7, attempting to steer the spaceship Liberator and successfully defeat pursuing Federation craft. The teachers at the school are aware of student use of the computer terminal and its teleprinter, but allow it, perhaps because they are unaware that it is being used to play a game, or even because the whole concept of games using computers is so new that it has not yet been recognized as a bad thing.

  • THE WARPSTONE INTERVIEW GRAEME DAVIS Questions by John
    THE WARP STONE INTERVIEW GRAEME DAVIS Questions by John Foody Graeme Davis was one of WFRP’s original authors, and was involved with its development throughout its time with GW. Many thanks to Graeme for his time. “ I spent the money on beer, and churned out more ravings” Could you give us a brief biography? Sure. I got into RPG’s through acting, in the late 70s. I was a member of the Bracknell Drama Club (plug!!), and some of the other guys worked for ICL in Bracknell (Douglas Brown, if you're reading this, it's all your fault!) and had picked up Caverns and Caterpillars (TM) in college. I went on to college myself, and started sending stuff to White Dwarf, who were in the throes of going monthly at the time, and had put out an appeal for new writers. Amazingly, they printed my ravings, and sent me money. I spent the money on beer, and churned out more ravings. It was a very satisfactory arrangement. I also wrote for TSR UK's magazine Imagine, and for the Fighting Fantasy magazine, Warlock. My first nonmagazine credit was in GW's British Call of Cthulhu supplement, Green and Pleasant Land; I wrote the archaeology section and part of one adventure. Shortly after GW was taken over by Citadel and the design studio moved to Nottingham, I was offered a job working on the development of the new Warhammer roleplaying game. Shortly afterward, Jim Bambra and Phil Gallagher joined GW from TSR UK, and the three of us were responsible for the Enemy Within adventures, up to Death on the Reik.
