Setting the East Ablaze!
« on: December 25, 2012, 07:36:38 PM »
So my copy of the book came with the last postvan yesterday and I slid into the post office 5 minutes before they closed for the holidays. So I plan on reading it today and I am thinking I will building a European force. Not sure which on yet. Regardless the book looks great and I excited to read it.
Cheers,
Irish

Reading STEA i just can't resist getting the exotic types. Which is why i want to add some Mongols or Tibetan Irregular Cavalry to my Chinese

Mind you, i had British already and they'll come in useful

Enjoy

I think I am going to make a British force and Chinese force to start. likely small to began with since no one else around here plays miniatures. I will be honest the hardest thing for me to get my head around it the very basic point and simplicity of it, don't get me wrong I thinks it is great. I come from a Warmachine background and that game is very much laid out whit set per-made unalterable units and ironclad rules.
