Science
Fiction & Fantasy
Most gamers are big science fiction fans and with us
it's no exception. While many of us did have large armies for Warhammer
40k, Space Hulk, and Epic, we got rid of them after realizing that
the rules were ever changing and it was getting to be a never ending
expense to keep up.
However, our urge to play these periods goes
on, so we went to what we feel are better games, namely Warmaster
and Warmachine. We do not play these too often and usually it's not
on a regular gaming night. The reason is that we are a historical
miniatures club and some of the members aren't too crazy about this
period. So we generally focus on historicals and play these on the
side.
Warmaster is certainly one of the best and most
fun games for the fantasy genre. It certainly give that massed fantasy
combat look and it plays fast. We've run games with close to 10,000
points a side, which are truly epic slugfests. We've
also dabbled in Warmachine and a few members still have armies for
this set of rules.
