What a great idea!!  Kudos to Craig and Charles for the continuing online support to IHMN.  Thanks Gentlemen.

PS.  Any chance we'll see Gothic in print?   :D

Are there any plans for a Weird WWII genre pack? Or has anyone else used IHMN for WWWII gaming?

Due to continued interest we are looking into both of these options :)

Great. IHMN Pulp and Weird War II are top of my 'want' list!

Yeah, the only "problem" is that the Lee-Enfield, M-1 Garand and Caranco M1891 all would use the same stats.

They would indeed, but remember they don't have to if you wish to change their rules for your game  :D

I imagine a BAR and Bren would be about the same, but both generally inferior to an MG34.

I have some 28mm cuirassiers looking for an outing. Meanwhile, how about SF? Set phasers on obliterate is what I say.

Sweet. I don't have the IHMN rules yet, but I will be picking them up in the near future. I really don't have much interest in VSF gaming, but it seems that these rules would transfer pretty well to the (weird) WWII era.

Actually, the rules transfer extremely well to skirmish wargaming in almost any era. I know there are people out there using them for medieval and fantasy games. The biggest problem in using them for later eras is probably that you would have to create new vehicle profiles (if you plan on having vehicles in your games).

Great idea, adapting the rules to the Renaissance.
