Title: Smart enough to know I could use some help.
Post by: Colonel Kane on September 12, 2012, 01:53:50 AM

Hello all,
      I could use some help in a project that I have whirling around in my head and can't seem to let go of.
Let me tell you what this project is before you offer to help,if you do. I want to play Warmaster, Mordheim, and Blood Bowl all together. I downloaded a set of Mighty Empire rules that says 'Advanced' on it, and they Have suggestions for Blood Bowl, Talisman, and Warhammer Fantasy Role Playing Game. I do not have either the Talisman or WFRPG and had the thought of Mordheim in it's place. I am sure it can be done. I just need some help in figuring out all the ups and downs. There is a small hitch, we would have to play by email. O.k. it's a BIG hitch. I know we could use Battle Chronicler to play both Warmaster and Mordheim. Blood Bowl I belive I've heard of on online game that can be done, but not sure about that. I was starting a game of Warmaster on Battle Chronicler with another fellow here on the boards, but he has disappeared on me. So I am unsure of how that all works.

My reason for trying this is I am tired of playing by myself, and I can't seem to get anybody locally to play, so I figured that this would be a great way to try this out. I like all three of the games, though I have never played Mordheim against anyone other than myself.

I would love any and all help, even if it is just that can't be done to try again. Let me know if and what you think. Right now I am just in the planning stage, i.e. trying to figure out the what, where, and how.

Thanks for just reading this post. Hope you have great days.

You could start by letting us know where you live. There might be someone nearby on the forums.  8)

I live in a little town in Woodson County Kansas USA. I doubt there's anyone on here that's within a 1 1/2 drive of me(about 90 miles), but I have been wrong before.

Blood Bowl is fairly easy to play online and you've got a few options.

1) Cyanide's version (which can be turn based or 'live')
2) Fumbbl (Java version): http://fumbbl.com/ (lots of leagues online and you can create your own)
2) Play by email (not very popular any more, there used to be a couple of great leagues). http://www.midgardbb.com/PBeMTool/ The rules for this aren't the current version I don't think.

I hope that helps,

Paul

Thanks for all the info guys, I will have to check these out. Right now I need to focus on the Warmaster portion of this project. On the bright side, My daughters boyfriend wants to play Warmaster, so I may have him snared.
