A bit lazy of me, especially when I enjoy seeing other peoples WIP ;-)<br />From personal experience I've so far always found that any set of rules with a card driven mechanic just naturally lend themselves to solo play, so I'm really hoping the same will apply to Donnybrook :-)The Wargame Addicthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15654413349305659155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4142082193091797747.post-19657770816328099812017-11-08T21:19:59.277+00:002017-11-08T21:19:59.277+00:00Thanks Bryan - the Star Wars game was an absolute ...Thanks Bryan - the Star Wars game was an absolute steal at the price and just shows the kind of thing that can turn up in the charity shops!<br />It was seeing the Reaper android on your blog that prompted me to order one :-) I've painted mine to look "well worn" as an older model than the Nexus series of 'skin jobs' are ;-)<br />As for banning public sales of fireworks, I totally agree as far as the larger things are concerned. Small "back garden / family" types are perhaps OK, but the HUGE (and LOUD) variety are simply too often abused and cause too many problems IMHO.The Wargame Addicthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15654413349305659155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4142082193091797747.post-52344604460146387832017-11-08T21:08:45.275+00:002017-11-08T21:08:45.275+00:00You've been an immense help Michael - these lo...You've been an immense help Michael - these look to be a real gem of a ruleset, and I'll certainly be reporting back in detail as soon as I can!<br />(The cup cakes were a little TOO nice and I ate more than I should!)The Wargame Addicthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15654413349305659155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4142082193091797747.post-90381655585294327702017-11-08T21:05:06.854+00:002017-11-08T21:05:06.854+00:00Early days Roy, but even so from what I've rea...Early days Roy, but even so from what I've read, I think these rules would fit the bill.<br />Mechanics aside, the production qualities are first rate and to say they're lavishly illustrated would be an understatement!<br />I'll crack on with my read-through and let you know more asap :-)The Wargame Addicthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15654413349305659155noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4142082193091797747.post-82240099130391973322017-11-08T18:50:36.768+00:002017-11-08T18:50:36.768+00:00Nice pick up on the star wars and the reaper minia...Nice pick up on the star wars and the reaper miniatures.

What a lucky find. <br /><br />The Reaper Android is a superb figure. I recently posted her on my blog, where she received a lot of favourable comments. <br /><br />As for bonfire night, I would ban the sale of fireworks to the general public if I was in charge. I much prefer Halloween. However, your cupcakes look delicious!Vampifanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11318241813130102121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4142082193091797747.post-44459063351181475012017-11-08T11:34:26.458+00:002017-11-08T11:34:26.458+00:00Well I'm thrilled to have been of help.

It has been on my radar for some time now, but seeing the faction "Tribal" listed I'm now going to look into it further. I'm quite interested in the post-Great Zimbabwe kingdoms and their dealings with other Africans and the Portuguese, so I might just take a closer look at Donnybrook.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
