I started off with a love of the Greek myths and legends, I knew the Greek Gods before I knew all of the Apostles.
When Red Box released their Amazons it just sort of grew, first it was tracking down a suitable gryphon then a conversion for a Cerbrus, I already had a load of the Caesar Trojan war figures so they got dragged into it. The appearance of Centaurs in the mix was just the icing on the top.
The beauty of Dragon Rampant it is a very flexible set of rules, with a little thought you can do anything. Event cards sounds like a really good idea that would work in it.
What I would like to do is a Trojan War game/mini-campaign. Each force is a hero and his retinue, the events in Homer provide a good frame work and there's enough temper tantrums and fits of pique that virtually anyone could face off against anyone else.
As fellow watchers of developments on linear a's website, have you spied the first master for set #020? Isn't it a lovely looking figure?
Minoans are a bit early for my historical interests, but I'd almost be tempted to get a set just to see and admire the figures!

Hi James,
You must have your browser home page set for Linear-a!
I am looking forward seeing the masters of all their upcoming sets. Set #037 (Neanderthal/Denisova/Sapiens) intrigues me the most. Most of all, I am anxious to buy the upcoming Roman legion set #017 (and later #018 most likely). Poses and sculpts look amazing.
Set #017, and some other mini-sets on my wish-list are at status 6-7 - so I'm hoping they'll be available for sale by the summer. We still don't know how many figures will be in the mini-sets though...
I love the Linear A figures. Very exciting figures in unusual periods. I like the Minoan
figures, and wish Linear-A would make Mycenean and Trojan War figures. I'd like one set dedicated
to Greek heroes and another to Trojan heroes. Trojan War chariots would also be great.
Not quite, but I do check the site regularly, particularly as there are often new surprises!
I had not twigged that the progress bar on so many sets has reached 6–7, thanks for the pointer. That is exciting news. I am keen on the Romans, Carthaginians and, naturellement, the Napoleonics.
