Re: Game of thrones in 1/72m

Steve Pickstock
I have to raise my hand here and say I belong to a very small minority that don't actually like GoT, hated the books, haven't seen the tv series


For various reasons I was of the same mind although I haven't read the books, I found the series worth watching after an initial reluctance to commit to spending the time.. which is considerable and on the whole I prefer films etc with a beginning, a middle and an end, to endless and often disapointing TV series, hopefully this series will have a decent end!

I should point out I don't watch TV as such, but buy likely looking movies etc to play on my home cinema

Re: Game of thrones in 1/72m

It seems that the real discussion here was not GoT but dragons in 1/72 scale:)
Nice addition Steve. Wizkids has hundreds of fantasy miniatures, many of them quite calidad for 1:72 (trolls,golems,giants and so in) I got two griffons which i want to give 1/72 riders since one year ago...
Bu the Day i read the Drsgon Rampant rulebook and it Looks quite easy ,dinámic and Fun!

Dragon Rampant - in fact all of the games that use the system - are very playable games and with the number of figures used, it's a great system for 1/72 games - as well as for people who are perhaps disillusioned - shall we say? - with another Games/Figure manufacturer whose rules have been changed out of all recognition from their original fantasy system.

Cavalry units are in 6's per unit and infantry are 12's or 6's depending on the quality of the troops. There are various categories of troops - Elites, Heavy and Light infantry etc, so basically you can configure your army which ever way you want it.

Oh and the other thing about the Osprey rule sets is that they are stunningly cheap compared with - say - another Games/Figure manufacturer whose rules have been changed out of all recognition from their original fantasy system. And not only are they compact but they are self contained as well.
