Title: Ronin: hi everyone and what happened to roninskirmishrules?
Post by: Bloof on August 17, 2020, 11:48:59 PM
Hi all,

After a small 20 years break in miniature wargaming, i came back to it and picked Ronin, for the theme, the small units and the fact I can play a game with my 8 years old son in under an hour.

I started making my first scenery ever, but that's for another post.

First of all, does anyone know what happened to:
http://roninskirmishrules.freeforums.org/

It seems everywhere I look that forum is mentioned for FAQs, rules questions, adaptations of En Garde ! rules for Ronin, etc etc.

I am convinced that forum contains many answers to questions I have.

Any help in finding where that went would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Was not a even aware of that forum! There is a Ronin Facebook group: Ronin Samurai Skirmish Rules with resources and helpful members.

The WaybackMachine internet archive has a few of the posts preserved:

Thanks! I have just been digging through it, unfortunately there doesn't seem to be too much preserved, pity.
I thought that tapatalk might have some version of this somewhere since the weblink redirects to tapatalk.

I will just ask separately for various topics :)

Just about everything that I actually wrote is on the Osprey site: https://ospreypublishing.com/gaming-resources-OWG

Hi Craig! Can't thank you enough for this fantastic game. I did find the Osprey resources, nice additions for the Oni, etc (my son likes them, he is 9 so things like sohei and ikko ikki mean nothing to him, but demons and ninjas are cool). The campaign looks very nice, i think this game lends itself very well to story telling and RPG style character development.

I will have some questions that I will post on other threads, i hope you don't mind, you probably answered them already a few years ago :)
