Unfortunately, most of these dioramas would not work well as wargaming tables... far too cluttered to get troops into and move them around.
Even the Dwarven Forge stuff, which looks nice enough, turned out to be kind of a pain in the ass in actual use because the walls are too high and spaces too narrow.
Maybe I'm just cranky today...
I wish there were more (new) fantasy wargames like this, hex and chit. I came to appreciate the simplicity ever since I started playing Dragon Pass. It leaves great room for imagination and work better for huge scales IMO.Those are some really impressive and artistic displays!
When I think of inspiring wargame images, though, I'm thinking more like:
Miniatures
War
Gaming
Several hobbies in one. Pick your own focus. Just don't tell me mine
I never thought of war as a hobby
;)
Are you describing war or parenting?Well indeed... call it history, reading about the background of your favourite fantasy or SF media, an interest in ships or tanks or the creations of Leonardo da Vinci.
Goes with the old saw that a real wargame would be played by torchlight in a ditch at 2am in a pouring rainstorm. None of you have eaten or slept properly in a week, people are screaming everywhere but you can't hear what they want, some people aren't moving. Now - go!
Anyone have any suggestions for cheap 80s era aircraft minis? Things that will work fine with 1" hexgrids?
