/awg/ - Alternative Wargames General

Historical fantasy edition

>What is /awg/?
A thread to talk about minis and games which fall between the cracks. /hwg/ doesn't entertain fantasy (for good reason) and the other threads are locked to very specific games, so this thread isn't tied to a game, or a genre, lets talk about fun wargames.

Any scale, any genre, any company, any minis. Skirmishers welcome. Rules designers welcome.

>Examples of games that qualify
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_miniature_wargames
Mighty Armies, Dragon Rampant, Of Gods and Mortals, Frostgrave, Hordes of the Things, Songs of Blades and Heroes, and anything that doesn't necessarily have a dedicated thread (gorkamundheim).

>How did you get into non-GW games?

I was poor and a friend showed me a copy of Ivan Sorenson's Fast and Dirty.

l-lewd.

>Ivan's the guy behind a lot of cool rulesets, including fivecore

>TotT
I started making my own when I was little, but quickly found WRG rules, Laserburn and the like.
