Then there are army lists - ugh! On the other hand, there is a certain amount of pressure to get it done!<br /><br />I have one home brew rule set idea that I keep starting and then going no where with, in part because there is no pressure to wrap it u - a set of rules for naval combat with 15 mm Renaissance Galleys. I WILL finish it some day!Gonsalvohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16531623280789478092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7386336651732048473.post-85486285843438823022018-09-15T20:41:50.087+09:002018-09-15T20:41:50.087+09:00Go for it and enjoy!

That said there are so many rules available but only a few I enjoy and play regularly.
