Embarrassing for me, but I was given contact details for these, but in my torrid email trails I have managed to lose them. So could someone steer me back to them please.

Thanks

I found that one, but no links, just the photo album, unless I am being dense here (not to hard to picture that of course). Thanks though

Marc the plastic fan….I've sent a copy of your post to Mike Blake of the SWG, hopefully he will reply on here tomorrow.

There are also two other groups that deal with 54 mm figures.

Littlewars and ToySoldierWargaming are both Yahoo groups that deal with 54 mm plastics and metal. Both are great fun.
Check them out.

I would be interested in knowing some rulesets for this scale.

Ok, I shall check out the other yahoo groups as well. Thanks, and hope to hear from Mike.

We do have a website but it is not very active as I found it cumbersome to post and up-load to – skirmishwargames.co.uk. I am in the process of uploading photos of our past games and of figures WIP and finished conversions etc to PhotoBucket, now my BB connection is running at a reasonable speed.

Our e-newsletter is available to anyone who wants it. It has game reports and details of future games planned etc.

We have some rule sets of our own available as Word docs or pdfs – they are true Skirmish 1:1 rules. For large 'battle' games we use other peoples – currently Hail Caesar and Black Powder. They work fine with no changes other than smaller numbers of figures in the units to keep the footprint on the table close to that of 28mm figures.

PM me and I will contact you with the email addresses

I use Crossfire for my 1/35 games, works great, no ranges or move rates, remember.

P.S need a lotta room, tho'!

I will take a look at Crossfire. We used Corner of Hell for some Burma games.

Mike-I'd like to get hold of a copy of TODD for use with the wagames group I run at school. I brought a copy of The Old West rules at Triples in 1975-I still have it albeit it is in rather battered condition and the spiral binding has pretty much disintegrated!

Need your email then and I can send the current version to you. Not sure what the drill is for emails – would be reluctant to put mine in straight?
