Am a newbee to WW1 gaming and have just bought some Great War Miniatures and a second hand copy of Warhammer Historical The Great War rules. I tried to access the Warhammer Historical web site only to find it had gone ! Read some posts about its demise and am now looking for the additional material and articles that were apparently on the site. Any pointers to what they were and if I can find them else where would be a great help. I understand the Over The Top supplement is now a bit hard to come by but has anyone in the UK got a copy they are willing to part with ? Thanks in advance for your replies.

Try checking here: wabforum.co.uk/index.php Good luck finding Over The Top. I also played this fun game system and was it disappointing to find them gone. Apparently! GW had all remaining rules stock destroyed! I have been looking for other Wahammer Historical rulesets as well. I posted a few pictures in my blog and planned to a more detailed blog report on the game later this week. Gamin Daze: link

Although not ready yet, we are working on some suitable World War One rules. As some will recall, I was involved in the originals :) They do turn up on ebay, a fellow club member whose helping me with play testing picked up both a couple of weeks back kind regards Rob Broom scarabminiatures.com warandconquest.co.uk
