I was only re reading the entire series the other night. I was fascinated by Hyboria and was very envious of the set up.
ReplyDeleteAn inspiring campaign, and a good example what wargaming can achieve ... I think it also helped that he was limited to what he had available. Current wargamers are too spoiled. We jump for ruleset to ruleset, and from period to period, such that a long effort as Hyboria seems very remote now.
