A Return to the Stars

After a veeeeerrrryyyy long, and mostly unplanned, hiatus, Stuart and I got
together to play more Stargrave in recent days. It was good! It was also a

ReplyDeleteI've been thinking about doing one of those Hex Based Campaign Design maps I love so much based on that map of Britain.
I should probably get on that.
I know you said this before, but what game does that map of the southwest of Britain come from?

ReplyDeleteRe: Farmer Giles of Ham, probably my favorite JRRT work. Maybe there's some alternate universe where Prof. Tolkein is best known as a prolific short story writer.
ReplyDeleteI like this very much -I once ran an arthurianesque game -fantasy trip rules, using the old AH Kingmaker board. It abstracted strategic movement very nicely.
ReplyDeletethe campaign worked surprisingly well until the players went rogue, and they all had to be hunted down and hung. Ah well. Camelot !
