I solved those problems by giving up boardgaming for historical miniatures a long time ago although some hints are sstill valid. |

But the suggestions here work pretty well of historical miniature gaming too. Follow the rules. Read the rules. Don't get bogged down trying to find something in the rules. Have fun. |

To be honest if somebody is not prepared to put the work in its not woth playing them. A better tip would be read the rules at least 3 times before the game so you don't slow the game down to unacceptable levels or ask for a beginner scenario and work up to a proper game after a period of training like any other hobby game. Try not do too much historical discussion riveting though it is in the midd of the game. :-). Many of us including me at times is guilty of that one! DO NOT TOUCH YOUR PHONE FOR THE ENTIRETY OF THE GAME. DOING SO IS UNACCEPTABLY RUDE, JUST GO AWAY! |
