Re: What's next?

New projects/additions currently in development include: Working with the sculptor on the next releases for the AWI range - galloper guns, Hessians etc. WW1 bunkers - scu...

Re: Orcs vs Undead

Hi,
Just been reading your battle report on your blog - a really great account of the Orc, Undead confrontation. It's always rewarding when fellow gamers 'get into' the H&H game system and it's feel and philosophy.
