Dragon Rampant: Fantasy Wargaming Rules (Osprey Wargames)

Product Information

If you are interested in a similar game in a different setting, we have a Battle Report and First Impressions Article for the game. dice allows them to act as a thundering bloody nuisance by slowing down your opponent and frustrating their cunning plans. This keeps the number of figures down and will help it look like more of a firefight skirmish than a clash of hand-to-hand mobs.

Although these rules are more complex than we're used to, they are presented in such a user-friendly way that it's easy to get your head around them with a few reads. The day went to Tim with his Anglo-Danes with Jeremey, also using Anglo-Danes, in a very close second. For me that is not a problem as I love the Lion Rampant rule enginge and way fix something that are not really broken. Nathan decided to split force and resemblant of a Zulu attack of the Bull he skirted the river and woods on the left while wolf riders and chief in chariot stormed across the bridge while ogres and Goblins on the right, waded the river towards the Hobbit bows and 95th RIFLES. Yes indeed, at least in my point of view, as I already are a keen Dragon Rampant fan and I love to be able to go through my LoTR collection and also maybe building me a new warband from my plastic pile as well to have a look at all new stunning fantasy models that are out on the market, now I got a well designed and cost effective set of rules that give me the kind of easygoing game I want !

With the Elven Elite Cavalry cut down to size, I ran my remaining Wolf Riders in to take on what was left of the Elven Force. Even with the same basic rules Dan have done a greate work to add tha fantasy flavoure to the rules as well as he have added special rules for Warbeats, like trolls, dragons and other stuff you ofcourse want to include in your fantasy games. We play many different games and through our stories you can get a feeling of how the games play, what tactics work for us, and many excellent pictures of miniatures and terrain in action. With Dragon Rampant and some terrain in front of me recently, it occurred to me to look at this as a possibility. This is fine for a medieval period game but in a fantasy game the narrow range of possible unit types and stats makes your games seem a bit bland.

I have more numbers than the Elves, but their units are stronger and their Wizard is also much more powerful than my own. Anyway, the same author decided to take the Lion Rampant rules and port them over into a Fantasy setting. It is cheap and it is cheerful but, above all else, it works - nothing horribly complicated, the application of common sense is promoted, and it will be expanded upon by those folks who like to do such things, but it is a great game and very easy for novices to get the hang of quickly and with great enthusiasm. The Dragon has almost always been a symbol of the Britons, mostly known today in Wales, but also in other Brythonic parts of Britian, such as the West Country.Dragon Rampant doesn’t do this so its ‘cookie cutter’ units all seem the same no matter what army you build. We do try to have a few games going and it’s important that games are open to any new member to help them feel included and part of the club. I have some Shadowforge centaurs, which are very nice figures, and I’ll likely get some more and cobble together a Shadowforge Dragon Rampant army. Even the spells available to Spellcasters – I reckon every one can be used as a command and control-type ability by a force commander. Una partita ha una durata accessibile (non mega battaglie che portino via interi pomeriggi o serate) Il Regolamento base è quanto basta e avanza, e ha un prezzo accessibilissimo.

Not only was it a turning point in the actual war but it was also a turning point (hopefully) in our campaign. These were mostly around allowing army building away from a single mini source, use Lion Rampant as a base, and allow flexible and fun 80’s style gaming.

We've tried options of giving everyone's leader the ability that gives them one reroll a turn, or allowing them to give up a glory point to get a reroll.
