I saw John Snow in the crowd! (seriously, neat stuff – didn't check for a price however, I'm sure it lives up to the name) |

That was a nice preview of the end of our hobby. |

The example video does not seem to include any morale algorithm. |

Electronic table where you can:
Make any terrain
Create and deploy and keep going with orders, thousands of 3 d minis.
Resolving combat ( rules modifiable/ could be yours)
Have huge historical banks of troops etc… One day… |

One of the things that helped boost me into playing with miniatures was a short story I read about two top players at a national-level immersive simulation wargame. Each took on the role of a commander at Bagradas (Xanthippus or Regulus), made his deployments and issued orders, then played the game as a combination of "10,000 foot general" and in-person VR sim. The audience got to watch the projections of soldiers and cavalry and elephants fighting the battle. (If I remember, the Regulus player did Scipio's trick to nullify the elephants, and then won the battle for the Roman side. I no longer remember if that was the protagonist or the antagonist.) Back then I thought it would be a long, long time before anything like that could exist. Maybe not so long now. - Ix |

And we will all be sitting in a darkened room with cables plugged into our spine(think Matrix) while the VR sim plays out in our heads. Not me. I want the red pill. |

It is indeed the Hollywood model – no one keeps formation, no one runs, no one hesitates. |

Terrement – already is one called "Tabletop Simulator". Only thing missing so far are game sets for it. |

It looks a bit rubbish. Total War does it better, though not perfectly. |

I keep saying Peter Jackson should do a re-make of "Waterloo". |
goes to sea with the Terrain Mat.
