    How would you covert AvP to SST?

    GOOD MORNING ALL (MY TIME!)! after doing a lot of reading last year, it seems like the PREDATORS do understand the concept of WAR, as well as the CONCEPT OF THE RITUAL HUNT. PREDATORS FIGHTING WAR a whole different type of PREDATOR from the PREDATORS OF THE HUNT. THEY ARE NOT REQUIRED...

    HEIDI-HEY, BUDDY! i think the camer has done something odd to the way the colors came our. looks kinda pastel to me. camouflage is one of my favorite things to paint, but, i went with the basic dark green "as issued" color scheme for my M4s, M8, M9, COUGAR and GRIZZLY armors. i may go back...

    YES, i and others with the same philosophy towards gaming have had this happen to us. when it happens to _me_ i relegate the individual (s) with the new PC, every weekend party hearty, etc, to the spontaneous combustion category, and go in search of fuel to add to the fire . . . DAWGIE

    Grizzly Weapon options

    ACTUALLY, i did not say anything about sanctioning theft of intellectual properties . . . what i said/or should have said was that the rulebooks bought by myself and other players were loaned out as needed so that folks without one could read the rules for themselves. my money, my...

    :o WELL, the statement about "your budget" smacked a bit of old fashion wargamer elitism (spelling?). there are a lot of kids, teenagers, and students, STILL, who find money tight and have to decide exactly what they want to buy and budget for it. as well as married gamers with families...

    Why did you get into SST game?

    for me, at first, it was the very nice BUG WARRORS, a mob of them in the boxed game, that grabbed my attention. the plastic MI powersuits, rules and etc, were nice add-ons for the price when i bought them from THE WARSTORE. my original cunning plan was to scarf up about a ba-zillion BUGS of...

    ANYONE HERE REMEMBER A SET OF RULES CALLED "SHOCK OF IMPACT"? these were a set of ancient warfare rules much improved over WRG ANCIENTs, that used the same mounting system for troops. the concept was fighting technique (ie, difference between ROMAN legionaries, GREEK hoplites, or...

    Army Planning & Design

    TIGER, i think the answer to this question of yours comes down to: 1. are you playing games and having fun, even when your ass gets soundly kicked, and: 2. are your buddies playing games with you and having fun as well, even when they get their asses soundly kicked? i think most gamers...

    Army Planning & Design

    i intensely dislike the "tournementt", "win at any cost", and "playing the rules, not the game" mind set that has swept through the gaming community since GW appeared on the screen as a major company. they have done a complete 180 from the original fun, use anything you own gaming concept of...
