Dinosaurs!

I like chancing across things on the internet. Well some things I don't like chancing across, like the this morning's Google burp whilst looking for something entirely unrelated; "Eh, What's that then? Good grief, look at the state of her... Oh, she's not going to...". What has been seen cannot be unseen.

Erm, anyway. Last night on a gaming forum there was a discussion about Blood Bowl figures inspiring someone to convert some Warjacks into Blood Bowl Dwarfs. I've no interest in Blood Bowl these days, but I still clicked the link, and ended up spending an hour or so browsing the brilliance contained therein.

This one caught my eye in particular;

So I'm now scouting around for 15mm Dinosaurs so my Splintered Lands warbands can undertake some big game hunting when they're not tearing each other limb from limb.

Also, downloaded Pride of Lions last night. Written by John McBride, author of the Song of Splintered Lands supplement, and father of David McBride of Splintered Light.

In my head I'm eventually getting towards gaming larger fantasy battles in 15mm, and really like the look of these rules. Can be adapted for non-magical (historical basically) battles if you like, by simply ignoring the magic section. Uses opposed dice rolls, with quality of troops represented by the size of their dice - D4 to D24.

No pictures on this entry - there's enough eye candy at Laughing Ferret to keep you all busy.
