While I like the reviews on Twitter and WSS blog post, but is anyone else waiting expectantly for this new TOOFATLardies game?

Hadn't heard of it.

I have been interested in the "I ain't been nuked mum" rules for a couple of years now, but they seem to be MIA, sadly. There were some playtests being conducted a year or more ago, but sadly, no news of late.

I know that I Ain't Been Nuked Mum is still out, but I do not think it is far enough along for final development. Chain of Command for current, Cold War and Indo China are all being worked on currently. Fighting Season should be out this year.

I am very interested about tank skirmish games, so….

Texas Jack03 Mar 2017 9:28 a.m. PST

I am very much looking forward to giving them a try.

From the TOOFATLardies twitter account and asking Rich it looks to be able to handle many a strange vehicle

Texas Jack05 Mar 2017 12:55 a.m. PST

I´m currently building my North Africa forces, so I hope it can handle A9s and the like.

jony66305 Mar 2017 9:27 a.m. PST

As do I Jack. Those early war British tanks look great.

Tired Mammal06 Mar 2017 6:57 a.m. PST

Looking forward to this. It is a great excuse to buy individual tanks without having to paint all those foot wallahs.

Do you have anything in mind Tired Mammal?

Tired Mammal07 Mar 2017 5:17 a.m. PST

My 15mm only go to about 43 North Africa and my 28mm is only a few eastern front troops, so finally I'll have an excuse to buy and use a Cromwell and/or Churchill VII without clearing my painting table first. These rules seem perfect for impulse buying of AFVs.
I am amazed that Warlord haven't thought of it first, then I realised that they do have some thing similar for BA tank platoons….

I am partial to the Cromewell as well. Also the Comet and Charioteer.

Tired Mammal08 Mar 2017 5:23 a.m. PST

Charioteer would be cheating, though you could sneak it in if you set up a game in the Lebanon with militias using WW2 equipment. Just let the players assume that T34s and Shermans means WW2.

True Tired Mammal but I have done a lot in Lebanon. :-)
