Howdy from Pennsylvania!
« on: 25 May 2012, 02:57:09 PM »
Hi gang! I just wanted to say hello. I reside in Chester County, Pa.
I am a reenactor (17th and 18Th Centuries) and am getting back into wargaming after a short hiatus. I am interested in trying skirmish wargaming in the Medieval or Renaissance periods or even Fantasy. I am thinking of getting some Perry WOTR minis and painting them for a Game of Thrones skirmish game using either GW LOTR or Songs of Blades And heroes.

Excellent idea, maybe a debauched dwarf conversion  lol

I'm listening to the audiobooks at the moment and was having the same thoughts.

...............oh and welcome to the LAF  :)

Thanks! It was some of the pictures on LAF that got me thinking how cool it would be to do some games set in that world. I am also thinking of a King Philip's War skirmish using the Brigade minis. What larks!

Welcome!  You'll be happy with those Perry plastics -- very well done in my opinion.
I am not a quack!  I'm a mad scientist.  There IS a difference!
