=====================================
Scribe's Musings:
From Guidon Games advertisement bit on Chainmail....
"This Illustrated booklet brings you comprehensive rules for wargaming with your medieval miniatures (such as the Airfix "Sheriff of Nottingham" and "Robin Hood" sets). These rules have been thoroughly playtested by the Lake Geneva Tactical Studies Association. They are designed for the serious table-top wargamer and combine realism and detail with the playability in just the right mixture.
Special features include rules for jousting and hand-to-hand combat and a large Fantasy supplement for gaming with super-heroes, wizards, trolls, hobbits and (why not) dragons, among others." _________________
