Give it a go, using whatever figures you have.  My small darkest africa collection had sat unused for ages, waiting for me to paint reinforcements, but finally saw the light of day.  For early games, substituting what you don't have specifically at least means you get to play a game.  You can make everything look lovely later (See Plynkes http://forum.backofbeyond.de/viewtopic.php?t=4760).  A good game or set of rules can give you the enthusiasm to start painting/building/etc (and I need all the help I can get!  :roll: )


I'm going to just need to build a few buildings from shoe boxes etc.. I've got a few. I'll then get going and post up when I do.

It just sounds so brilliant.

It is pretty fast and easy. Some things may be a little difficult at the beginning but Iam sure you get into it very easy.

Tip!
If you use stones for supression and kills you dont even have to write while gaming.

I based my markers on pennies. 1 to 3 stones on a base to represent supression status of the unit.

Cheers

We all agred that pennies, markers, chits coloured stones are not acceptable on the gamingtable. Casualty miniatures are optimal, we used sheep. :-)
