Enough! Cease! Desist! Craig, you've got me addicted....I am already a hopeless IHMNaholic! There is no need for the continuous bombardment (Range 24", 6" radius, -2 Pluck, Weapon Bonus +3, 14 points!!!!!!!!) of shameless plugs and tantalizing teasers! Yes, yes, I admit it, Gawd help me: I just put in a preorder for Sleeping Dragon, Rising Sun on Amazon! I even marked the release date on my calendar!

Aaaaaaaarrrrrgggghhhh!  o_o





Well. I feel much better now. Thanks.  ;)

By the way, I couldn't help but notice that you can purchase a copy of the original IHMN from Amazon new for $13.36, or from other vendors on the site for as low as $9.76, while (whilst?) there are two other listings for the same book from other vendors on the Amazon site selling new copies for $35.40 or $32.55. Did they think we wouldn't notice? Or perhaps Osprey published a leather-bound gold-leaf edition of which we were unaware.....

PS: I am forced to admit, grudgingly, that the new Talents are excellently conceived and make a fine addition to the IHMN milieu. And I'm not even quite sure what a milieu is.
I was talking aloud to myself. A habit of the old: they choose the wisest person present to speak to; the long explanations needed by the young are wearying.

i love the idea of such a list , nice, indeed ...
just 2 thinks :

skirmisher talent french translation seem's to be "zouave" for north african european infantery, or "chasseur" for french continental infantry, or "tirailleur" for "native" troops ,

armoured steam lorry passenger : 0 , wtf ?
Dans les situations critiques, quand on parle avec un calibre bien en pogne, personne ne conteste plus. Y'a des statistiques là-dessus.

The difference between a truckload of troops and a truckload of vegetables after a long ride is that vegetables can be utilized upon arrival and the troops will require a few minutes to recover before becoming effective...

ARMOURED STEAM LORRY
This is an armoured version of the standard Hercules steam lorry (HVF 2.3.3) with a slightly more powerful engine to prevent the weight of the armour slowing it down. Like the Hercules, it can carry a mix of goods and up to 12 people in the back. The cost includes the crew (Pluck 6+, FV +0, SV +0, Speed +0, no equipment).
