Title: Steam & Aether beta rules
Post by: Andrew May on April 26, 2014, 06:40:12 PM
So here at last we have the free Beta edition of "Steam & Aether" fast play rules of download. This is the consolidation of a very large amount of pondering and pontification over my gaming life as to what would make a game that I would like to play. After a fair bit of play testing and an expert edit and thorough re write from Mr Mark Latham, it's time to hand it over to players. This is very much a "beta edition" and I'd love to hear what you think, especially if you actually try it out with Meridian Miniatures or even other figures from your collections. What work for you, what doesn't and what you'd like to see in the future. These rules are designed to be fast playing, fun and easy, they're definitely not designed to be an accurate simulation of reality, they're a game and written with enjoyment in mind so do please take them in that spirit. I'll be updating and expanding over the coming months based on feedback and further play testing. For those wanting to purchase more miniatures I am able to take orders via email, please contact me via the blog. I have a webstore being developed as you read this, I'll be keeping everyone up to date as it launches in the next couple of months.
Many thanks

Ha ha, I know the feeling sometimes. After so many rewrites, edits etcetera  it was like staring at some complex pattern instead of reading text! I haven't had a game since the final final final edit so there will be changes to be made yet I'm sure!. lol

Which is why I've printed three copies to share with the lads; I'm lucky they let me move any figs, and they always have to tell me how many dice to roll...  lol
