I never actually got to play a game of AT-43 although I really tried to get my friend Anders (who owns all the minis) to go for it. It was a weird situation as he talked me into AT-43 and then when I finally wanted to play he didn't and then it all died. I'm still sad that I didn't get my Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14273617095134919455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6816649425171456382.post-49549023467720049712012-01-25T04:03:55.334+01:002012-01-25T04:03:55.334+01:00Why not use the AT-43 rules?

Dust Tactics is surprisingly fun given its simplicity but it's sort of more like tactical chess than a miniatures wargame; though who knows what the Warfare rules will be like.<br /><br />I'm sure I'll be able to use AT-43 figures for Dust Warfare if it's a Universal Headhttp://www.headlesshollow.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6816649425171456382.post-86024108159222252982012-01-22T22:49:13.660+01:002012-01-22T22:49:13.660+01:00@Andy - Yes, I quite like what I've seen so fa...@Andy - Yes, I quite like what I've seen so far of TW. A spiritual successor of Jon Tuffley's StarGrunt II (he even wrote the foreword). It's quite detail and involved though, but sometimes that's just what you want!<br />A flexible system where you can stat your own units is good of course.

Might try it myself sometime.<br /><br />If you like skirmish style games you can use Where Heroes Dare! or SuperSystem to mix walkers, infantry, vehicles, you name it and you can use it. You can even use Future War Commander and create your own stat lines for whatever you feel like using!Andyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07158215811847131189noreply@blogger.com
