Title: IHMN/Space 1889
Post by: McKinnhe on October 03, 2018, 08:42:34 AM

Hi, I was just wondering if anyone ever thought to try IHMN rules in the Space 1889 universe? It seems like the two are made for each other.

I'm just getting back into wargaming, having done a bit of the old 40K back in high school. I always liked the Space 1889 world - admittedly I like the Chadwick stuff better than the new mat, but the new stuff still rocks.

Anyway, just a thought. Hope to have some stuff to show in the near future.

McKinnhe, welcome back to the hobby.

I don't see why you couldn't use the Space 1889 universe.  It fits in perfectly with IHMN.  You can use any setting you want.

Cheers, amigo  :). Been trying to think up some stats for Martians and Venusians. Hope to be able to have something to show soon.

Wargames, Soldiers & Strategy issue 76 has stats and companies for the Martian
invasion. It was written by the authors of IHMN.

I'm a fan of the old Space 1889 and IHMN too. Be interested to see what you come up with. May even inspire me to follow you with a few additional ideas too. Welcome back  ;)

Mixing IHMN with Space: 1889 means fun for the whole family. :D

I did this a few years ago: http://burningsandsofsyrtismajor.blogspot.com/2014/09/incident-at-martian-farmhouse-ihmn-1889.html

Looking to do another right around the Xmas break - if I can find some Martian civilian models.

Dude, that is awesome! I'm going to try it out as soon as I can get this current project finished.

Do keep us apprised of advances on 'Sédition dans le Souk'!

A friend and I just bought up a collection of 1889 figs; definitely need framework for playing.
