I was informed this morning that the cover I loaded on Wargame Vault for Epic Heroes wasn't added to the pdf.  I just uploaded it and we're good to go.

Here are some snaps from our Epic Heroes games last week.  Those Chronopia dwarves look really cool. Mike Zabkar had those and some great looking Stygian snake men.  The wood elves were mine.  Game ended in a draw.







Good times!

Nice to see Chronopia Dwarves getting an outing!

I just picked up a copy of the rules and look forward to giving them a peruse!

All the best!

Yeah, its great to be able to play with models that aren't tied to a rule set.  Mike has those Chronopia Dwarves & Stygians, Drew has his Mega Miniatures Dwarves that look great (Moonshield!), and Aaron had some GW Lizardmen and some Warlord Picts to use as Barbarians.

Thanks for your business Spacecowsmith!  Welcome aboard.

   I have been going CRAZY with the Fantasy rules!
   I must have written a dozen warbands so far for every mini I own that is even remotely fantastical!
   So far, my Carpathian Wolfmen ( Rackham Wolfen from Confrontation ) are my favorite! Feral AND Brute! ( not real big on quiet contemplation... )
   But I also had fun writing my Impressed Terrified Village Militia warband ( French peasents from Ex Illis ).  :D

Sounds great John. Can't wait to see some pics and read your reports.

I'm painting up some demo figures for our fantasy demo next sunday in Sacramento.

I'll post the list once I'm done.

Has anyone else been playing around with the Epic Heroes rules?  We've got over 200 people who have downloaded them, and I'm curious if they are being put to good use.  :)

 I know the person who has got the old Metal Magic Dwarves.He has also had the sculptor Joseph Ochmann do some more for the range too.

 Need to get these rules and see how to fit my range into them ;).

 Got a printer now so will be nice to have them in hand to read.

chronopia dwarves are some of the nicest dwarves you can get ! Stygians are great too (I posted a topic about them a few months ago).

Yeah, let me know if you have any questions on how to build your range in BoB/Epic Heroes terms.  :)
