Only 5 days into 2014 and we've already had our first 1914 game. All thanks to Kurt who put on the whole show, terrain, minis and rules! Beautiful 10mm stuff.

Aren't you about 8 months too early? |

This was a tune up. The Big Push comes in September 2014. |

How can I get a copy of the H-Hour rules? I have a Memoir-style hex mat and a friend has Germans, Brits and French. |

PM me and I'll see what I can do. It will take time. At this point the only thing written down are a reference card and some notes. They are simple fast-play rules, with one base = one company, which allows big games. We fight corps sized elements 1914 battles against each other. I am confident we could fight multiple corps on a side if we can paint enough troops and make enough terrain. The best thing I can say about the rules is that after one game experienced gamers set aside the reference tables because they know what to do. The action moves along. Another good thing is that gamers who did not have interest in the period have been attracted to the game and are buying figures. So just PM me and as soon as I have something presentable I can send you a copy. I am still getting ready to run this at the Siege of Augusta, but once I'm back from that putting together a draft will be priority #1. |
