Ilium: A Game of Heroes - open for playtesting
Every group and every person approaches rules a different way, so it is always essential to explore different perspectives. Therefore, having worked steadfastly to bring the rules to a stable point, we are now looking for a small number outside playtesters to have a look.
Ilium: A Game of Heroes is written as a two player game with flexibility to allow additional players. Playtesters will need approximately 28 models each to represent the Achaean and Trojan heroes and their promachoi, a 24" (60cm) square playing area, and a couple of d10s. Playtesters should be able to commit to playing two or more games before the start of Easter.

I would be interested. This will be fun!
ReplyDeletethis sounds fun, I'm in
ReplyDeleteI don't have any figures to playtest, but I will follow your progress as it is one of the periods I wanted to start this year. I'm on the look out for suitable 15mm heroes
ReplyDeleteHave a look at Museum Miniatures. They do a great range in 15mm for Achaeans/Mycenaeans and Trojans.
DeleteDefinitely a fertile world for gaming! I especially like your idea of "Glory" rather than traditional battlefield victory being the goal. I wish I could help play test, but we have a pretty full schedule at the moment. I'll be following along eagerly, though...
ReplyDeleteThanks Mike!
DeleteI've wanted a game on those lines since I read David Gemmel's Troy series. A ship of 30ish men making up a warband and lots of adventures with it.
ReplyDeleteI am not in a situation to playtest much though as I end up doing everything solo
