Hello and thanks for having a look at my channel. I'm a long-time gamer and this channel will focus on my love of miniature wargaming, with a particular focus on the Batman Miniatures Game.

My opinions are honest and I try to portray the bad as well as the good.

I hope that you find these videos informative about a very interesting game and, dare I say it, entertaining.

    Very nice battle report and good to see some HC action as I am planning to expand my armies to match the standards of HC. As a historian I agree with your perception about the capability of the Persian army, the vast empire certainly makes for interesting armies and not all were "horde" armies or of inferior quality. The Greeks were definitely at the peak of soldiership but get a bit too much praise especially in older literature. As for HC itself, I like to watch but still not totally convinced by the system. While it definitely has a historic base and one can argue that the command system is reasonalbe, from a player's view I don't like it when half or more of my armies just stands around...

    Congratulations on the little one. Thank you for posting - I don’t have any ancients/sword and board historicals but this is tempting. I’d imagine the game may be getting more exposure now/soon due to the new warlord ‘epic’ set that’s been announced.

    Thanks it's an experience so far. It's a good ruleset to own even if you have a different ancients set you prefer to play- Hail Caesar lets you set up quick scenarios like this one regardless of how your collection is based.

    Any and all wargame periods xould be "controversial ". Not one thats not had hideous things happen. Just play the game periods you like, even 40k etc..and leave the politics and moral hand wringing that plagues everything these days OUT of the hobby. If you cant seperate the two,whoever you are,maybe wargamming aint for you.

    If you can get far enough South, then we play at the hailsham wargames club.

They should tell you which games are on in advance.

    I think the game is fun, and even with postage it was not bad. Transport once it is punched is not as slim as when you first receive it, as you have tio back up cards and counters I think the oldest "Build your own fantasy army" large scale wargame I have read would be from 1977, "The Emerald Tablet" where you can have to design the basic stats of your individual troops, or Chivalry and Sorcery 1st edition, which had a more standard wargame format for the era, where you did have "types" but they were not as abstracted as HoTT or Mythic Commander Mythic Commander's version is a lot more elegant

    Hi, I printed the warriors, leader and intelligence figs so far. Operations are printing now. I had all 21 of them print fine. I did bump the y axis up to 115% since they looked fragile. They turned out quite nicely. The leader was still fragile but he did print up completely. Again, a HUGE THANKS for making these files!
