WARGAMING - IT DOES NOT HAVE TO BE SAD & LONELY

Hi. I'm Tommi Atkins and I'm a Wargamer. I've been gaming since 1977 and so I really ought to know better, but  meh..who gives a damm.

Wargaming is chess with a thousand peices and it's fluid art on a tabletop. It's the most fun you can have with you clothes on.....Unless your one of those people who wargames with your clothes off. In which case , although the last sentence dosn't apply to you, please get the hell away from my site (Except if your a female wargamer, but I'm pretty sure they dont exist)

Where the heck was I? Ahh yep, Wargaming. Now I was over at Battlefronts Website and also took a look at G.W's Pages and a thought struck me. "W00t! These guys have really fancy websites, I could make my site look like that too!" And indeed I could, but It would involve a lot of work & I would rather spend my free time gaming or trolling endless forums.

So in breif; Welcome to Atkins Wargames. Purvayors of Rules for the Discerning since 2006.

Wargaming on a single D6

Hi.Are you the sort of Wargamer who loves setting up hundreds of troops then throwing

 thousands of dice happy in the knowledge that you will get 200 hits, then 50 wounds

then 4 kills...? Are you content that whoever rolls the highest will eventually win

 and tactics be damned? Do you relish the stunning inaccuracy and historical nonsense

chucked out by glossy,fluff packed, expensive, corporate cash cows?

 

Nice to meet you. Now Sod off.

REGROWTH*.

*allegedly.

.It's 14 pages of heavy duty paper, some ink and some staples.Produced by AMAZON MINIATURES; Reknown vendors of

all that is Godly in gaming & publishers of HOPLON. As a limited time offer the deluxe edition also comes with its own beige

 carrying case/ postal envelope and a slightly used stamp. We make our Rules using only the finest ingredients and have

 received acclaim for it's hoppy taste and full-bodied dice-roll modifiers.

I Wish That wargaming could be cool. How can I acheive this?

 J.A was designed initially to be a DXBfor non-losers, one that could be played in 15-30 mins and not have the

 players struggling with exceptions and errata.

Here is a typical outtake from a game of DBA and JA for comparison.

 DXB  Justified Ancients
 Ok, lets see. Im moving my inferior baggage through difficult terrain, so that means I recoil if beaten by less than something unless its a Wednesday in which case all non superior unsupported Blades recoil by 1/32 of a base depth. or something...here you read it mate....  Okies, D6 Score 4 , whapped you in the front ,  thats plus this minus that. okies your stuffed.
 Umm Clubs closing in a min' Tarquin. Can you finish your first turn so i can have a go?  Hey Great game mate! Another one or fancy hitting the town?

 NO! I just knocked the table! I  moved your light horse 1 mm out of position...the games ruined.

Why do these rules make me feel like such a sad lonely geek?

 For the LAST TIME girls, I'll let you give me a "special backrub"  after the game's over.

WHAT IS PORT & CIGARS?

P&C is a fast play Napoleonic set that allows massive battles

 to be recreated on your table top.

Think of the last row you had with your wife about money or spending too much time surfing forums...well it's even bigger

 battles than that. Port and Cigars allows you to put yourself inthe gout-ridden stinky boots of a liver-pickled Napoleonic General

and make even more of a mess than they did. But with far less bloodshed, ( depending on your opponent)

It utilises 1D6 to resolve combat and yet..by arcane and mysterious mechanics, transports you back to an age

 where men wore makeup and perfume and yet still killed each other with 3 ft long sharp lumps of steel. Whats not to love?

 

No More! No More! Just send

me the rules already!
