I like it.<br /><br />Scarlet Heroes is great because it is designed for one player one DM, so makes a nice change from the norm. The Red Tide campaign is exceptionally nice, is a neat sandbox campaign, and has an extremely oriental/Japanese feel.<br /><br />But Bushido just wont go away in my head. I am very tempted by it. Maybe I will place my tentative first order with the company soon. Those figures are simply to die for.

I am extremely enthused by this game and I hope by the end of this run of blog articles others are too.<br /><br />The plastic cards are necessary to protect the stat cards from my heavy handed spilling of tea on my gaming stuff, but also useful marking off wounds for your characters with a dry marker negating the need for separate counters.<br /><br />Scarlet Heroes is a new one on me but having just read through some of the reviews on it, it looks a fun game! But why choose between one or t'other when you can get both ;-P<br />Da Gobbohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09482323500538272232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8659404329585395747.post-32143001164491695442016-05-11T15:33:24.484+01:002016-05-11T15:33:24.484+01:00I simply love your work, your painting, the way yo...I simply love your work, your painting, the way you write (the enthusiasm is infectious and makes me just want to get my stuff out and PLAY). You are an inspiration to me.<br /><br />I also really like those Bushido miniature and the rules. The stat cards are simply beautiful (like you, I really love to see cards protected in plastic sleeves).<br /><br />I didn`t go the Bushido route in the end. I went for "Scarlet Heroes" which fits my plans nicely. But it was a hard choice for me, to choose between the two rule sets.<br /><br />T<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8659404329585395747.post-84182135566855775512016-05-10T20:19:18.193+01:002016-05-10T20:19:18.193+01:00no worries Jez, glad ive managed to help ;-)no worries Jez, glad ive managed to help ;-)Da Gobbohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09482323500538272232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8659404329585395747.post-69281954217904257132016-05-10T17:56:39.115+01:002016-05-10T17:56:39.115+01:00Indeed.
