Well I started working on my Horus Heresy infantry. I am planning on running an Istvaan III scenario/campaign for my gaming group. You may notice the basing is a bit weird on the figures. That is because I will be using a different set of rules, not any incarnation of Epic.

These are not finished. Mainly I have to finish the banners and the labels for the bases. You can see some of the labels at the top of the EC photo. The labels work with the rule set I am using and also helps players that are not familiar with the 40k universe.

Fireball Forward. A lot of my local gaming group are big into WWII. While I enjoy gaming WWII, it isn't what I care to paint and work on myself.

I played that a local con last year, it was man-to-man though. Are there rules for squads of infantry as playing pieces, rather than single figures?

Yes, 1 stand = 1 squad. Leaders are important to the game, activating units, rallying pinned troops, etc, so they have their own stands. The game was designed for 15mm figures, but some have been playing it with 6mm WWII without converting the ranges. So I figured I could use Epic figures. There are free play test rules on the website (http://fireballforward.com/downloads/) if you want a general idea of how things work. That pdf focuses on infantry. The final rules, which came out about 2 years ago, have a lot more tanks, aircraft, artillery, etc.

Hi!

Interesting, have you had to house rule it much to accommodate epic gaming?

I am using the rules as printed. I just created stats for the units. I started with the base that an Imperial Guard infantry squad has the exact same stats as a German infantry squad and went from there.

I take you are referring to how Epic originally started with the Horus heresy and this is looping back around to that. Nothing at all to do with me returning right....right? ;D

Hi!

Cool! I like coming up for stuff for different systems. You use the same technique I use by using stats already there as a baseline and work from there. :)
