Ok, ok, the actual title of the rules from Two Hour Wargames is Warrior Heroes to Be King - but Amazons don't have kings! At long last I'm trying out the game which is a new edition of one of my favorite games, Rally Round the King. And with RRtK being one of my most… Continue reading Warrior Heroes to Be “Queen”

If you are not familiar with Warrior Heroes to Be King or Rally Round the King, each army has a core of required… Continue reading Amazon Update Number 4
Amazon Update #3
This week I finished rebasing and touching up five more units of Amazons. Only eight more units to go before I have two armies for a Warrior Heroes to Be King game.

Amazon Update #1
In addition to the Amazons that need to be rebased, I've discovered I have at least one hundred Amazons that still need to be painted, some are still on the sprue waiting to be assembled.

Alignment Defined & Problems Dungeons & Dragons, Pathfinder and other RPGs define Alignment as a character's or creature's basic moral and ethical orientation or attitude. Some game systems avoid alignment altogether. In simplistic terms, Alignment has to do with good and evil. However, life isn't simple. We can all say we have seen "good" people… Continue reading WHAT – A Look at Alignment

"Where are all of the cool creepy monsters?" asks the new player. It's true, when you purchase most RPGs, role playing games, the monsters aren't in the core rules.
