One-Hour Wargames... with Epic 40k

[sean_68333]

I got a copy of One-Hour Wargames by Neil Thomas recently and read through it over the Christmas holiday.  The selling point for me was the 30 scenarios included in the book. But, after reading the rules, I was intrigued by their simplicity and decided to tweak the WW2 rules so I could use some of my Epic 40k models in a solo battle. 

I enjoyed the game a great deal and plan to play more with these rules.

While the rules are pretty simple, they offer a good time and a game that can be played within an hour.

The scenarios are a great addition to any gamer's library (though depending on your existing library, you may already have them). I plan to use the scenarios as the basis for building scenarios for other games and will adjust them as necessary for different rule sets.

All in all, I am very pleased with the book and encourage you to check it out.

I played one of the scenarios with a slight tweak to the WW2 rules so I could use my Epic 40 models. 

The Eldar and Marines faced off against each other in a Disordered Defense scenario.  The Elder were the defenders and ended up holding the crossroad at the end of the game.
