Rules were home grown as usual - this was the first attempt at ECW with this system so there were a few tweaks, The figures are a real mix of Foundry, Dixon, Essex, Warlord and some very early Front Rank (no longer in production). Most of them go back 30+ years. The charcter figures are most likely Foundry, bought in thr days when you coule buy individual fogures from Foundry.Mark Strachanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05988775093525037168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4202191777127653648.post-78111933715812256862016-06-13T06:29:05.893+12:002016-06-13T06:29:05.893+12:00Yes it was fun, but would have been been more fun ...Yes it was fun, but would have been been more fun if we hadn't made such a hash of our deployment!Mark Strachanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05988775093525037168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4202191777127653648.post-34725511365188234282016-06-13T03:18:09.440+12:002016-06-13T03:18:09.440+12:00Now that sounded like fun, toying with Pikeman'...Now that sounded like fun, toying with Pikeman's lament at the moment so a very timely posting.<br />Cheers<br />StuStuart Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01213577814388355407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4202191777127653648.post-30514748644706129342016-06-13T00:10:07.519+12:002016-06-13T00:10:07.519+12:00That is a handsome looking game!
