Warhammer Historical WW1?

You know, there aren't many things I'd consider more unattractive than playing WH40K, but advancing into the machine guns at the Somme would certainly be worse. Although not as boring  :lol:

Quote from: "GregX999"
When complaining about WH40K in the past, I've always said "It plays like WWI trench warfare... a general advance with no tactics, no supression, just run like hell straight towards the enemy while blazing away at whatever you can see."

Yeah, I think it would be a good ruleset for that war...

Allright, that's actually a valid point.  :lol:

40K would never work for the 17-18 period though whem armies actually learned how to fight. Perfect for the Somme however- provided you like bloated, 80's games.
