C'est marrant, je bosse sur le même projet mais avec d'autres règles et une autre échelle (15mm)

It's funny! I actualy work on the same thing but with another rules and miniature's scales (15mm).

:lol:

The conquest of the new world is a famous period with no adapted rules. so every body try to adapt his prefered ruleset.
I think it's a ood period for skirmish.

And thanks to Pete. I know the batiments are not so great (I use Cardboard)

I popped up a set of lists on the LOTR Variants group last year if they are any good for you I will e-mail them (unless you are on the group already)

if you want them e-mailed, give me a nod :)

I am also working on a set of rules at the moment for larger battles based on a colonial set by Trevor Brabyn. I am planning on using these at Salute after my partner has a shufty at them. :)

I've got them yet. I don't use it because I don't have the LOTR rules.  :cry:

Now I have the minis I think I will test the different rules set available.

Very similar to LOTOW Just substitute the stats lines like for like and you are there e.g. terminology is different e.g. will and might

Thanks Pierre! I'm planning to do an Aztec game at a convention this summer. Your plans will be a big help!

(Great job on the scenery, too!)
