I'd add that as well as avoiding that person who spoils the game for everyone (I've encountered a couple recently), we should all look at ourselves and make sure we don't behave in the same way! Oldhammer games are really quite unique in that 'winning' is usually relatively low on the priority list - being part of a great story is much more important.

The thought of seeing a Citadel Giant or Emporer Dragon smashed on the floor in a pique of rage would be tragic. Though, abandoning an army of old school models as you rage quit would certainly have made some of our players most happy!

His name refers to his use of his aquebus and is in no way a sexual reference!

I'm still smiling at the memories of yesterday's game so you and Paul definitely got the GM'ing right.<br /><br />If only that cart hadn't blown up though - Bullockchopper had designs on capturing it and riding it down the hill into the defenses of Far Corfe. Mind you the fall out of that explosion was both spectacular and hilarious!Thantsantshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06902730729032525538noreply@blogger.com
