I remember 6th edition vividly! |

I played 6th a bunch, it was a good set of rules. It had a cheat sheet full of Melee tactical plus 1's and then a die role. Plus die and minus die. The die role often decided the outcome. I remember a Detroit Con where they were playing a 6th tournament and as I walked by the many tables I heard the loudest shout ever… "PLUS 3!!!!!!!." And a great cheer went up from the crowd. Too funny! |

4th Edition was the first edition of WRG ancient rules that I used. We were just getting familiar with them when 5th edition came out. That kind of killed our interest. |

My first games were in 5th edition. I played it a lot and I can still remember intending to create pages of standing orders but never getting around to it . . . 6th edition was a great game. 7th killed the system IMO. I think the "Purple Primer" was written during 4th (or maybe 3rd) edition so it referred to a few things that were different to 5th ed. Cheers,

I have the memories of so many fun games of WRG 6th edition from back then. Thank you Hancock family for hosting us every Sunday. |

You can download pdf version of WRG 1,2,3,4, 5 and 7th. I have not found 6th edition anywhere, but i do possess a copy of the rules myself. |

Bought a set of WRG 4th edition 'cause it was on the shelf in the game shop the guys were playing ancients. Then found out they were using 5th edition to play. :( But the 4th edition had the fantasy elements dropped from later editions :) |

Started playing with Tony Bath rules in 1968 and then all the editions of WRG. Best was 4th. 7th was terrible. |
wonders if he can use his 3Dprinter to make markers.
