i figured (after reading a post on the forum about a lego batle) i should dig out my old playmobil and do a masivve scale battle. it might even invoke enough attention for my bro to play. + there big enough to take pictures. im thinking castle siege. i will have to sumble up some easy rules. but thatl be the hardist bit the rest will be a laugh and definitley fun  :D  :mrgreen:  so keep looking for more.

There used to be a large group (possibly based near Nurnberg) who fought spectacularly big actions with Playmobil, but I cannot remember where I saw them.

I do have this link for a set of pirate-style rules :

I'll be buying Playmobil for my girls! Definitely! Must be the way to gúide them into gaming  :twisted:

In my father's attic, I have a castle and some medieval houses from the late 70's - before Playmobil medievals got the 'cuddly toy disease'. Must get them out, too!!

Have they made any undead, yet (like Lego - a very productive Danish company ;-)  )?
