We'll get Richard playing. Trying some Medievals soon. Maybe we can compromise and do some Leonardo-Tech type games?
Flapjack- plenty of other stuff coming too. Got some new genres to dive into, along with revamping old titles and campaign books. Keep an eye out first of the year.
Has.been- Brand naming convention is always "Fistful of Lead: Title".

Two fist full of rules! :-*
Just picked up the entire PDF collection tonight, just scanning through it now, looks great!

I would really, really, like to add a big battle book to the collection.
The AAR looks great!
It is just the thing to get my VSF troops back into action.

This has to be the way forward.
Great FUN rules, expanded to get even more toys on the table.
Deep joy.

Am also experiencing Deep Joydibold. (in the words of Stanley Unwin)
One question to Baron J: I noticed your units were all singly based, will the big battle rules work with multibased figures? Has it been tried ?
I am going to build a wargames army, a big beautiful wargames army, and Mexico is going to pay for it.

2019 Painting Challenge :
figures bought: 500+
figures painted: 57
9 vehicles painted
4 terrain pieces scratchbuilt

Vodkafan. I would suggest Sabot bases, but I know how much you dislike them...
Hang on, if you base stuff on transparent bases (like your lovely, but doomed, GA team)
& buy some see through Sabot bases (from our lovely Oshiro) it might just work for you.

Stop by Salute and find out! I’ll be running a samurai battle for Oshiro modelterrain using his terrain and multi-based miniatures.

People are starting to figure out the concept that you just swap single miniatures for a base or stand of miniatures and works exactly the same.
In my mechanics battles, for instance, I have bases of 6mm infantry that act just the same as single miniature.
