More reviews, more memories

“The advantage of a bad memory is that one enjoys several times the same good things for the first time.”
                                         - Friedrich Nietzsche

As the calendar winds down on October, and slowly creeps into November, I am thinking about what I will be working on (hobby-wise) into the holiday season.  One thing is probably more reviews.

For the previous few weeks, I have been writing a number of reviews of older rulesets that I played, back in the 80s and early 90s.  These reviews are part of a series I am calling the Once and Future Rules.  This has been really enjoyable, and has brought back fond memories of what I found so compelling in wargaming, in my early years of discovering wargaming outside my own house and neighborhood.

I would like to continue this series of reviews, and some of the other rulesets I played (a lot) that I would like to cover are:

WRG Ancients (5th and/or 6th)
War Cry
Shock of Impact
Warlord

The Sword and the Flame (Yaquinto edition)

WRG Renaissance Rules
Wargamer's Guide to the English Civil War (Protz)

WRG WW2 rules (1925-1950)
Overwatch
Jagdpanzer
Angriffe

Challenger

Seekrieg
General Quarters

Frederick the Great (FGU)
TAC-50 Rules (Ben King's rules)
Guard du Corp (Rudy Scott Nelson)

Knights & Magick
Heroes and Wizards
Wizards and Warfare
Warhammer 2nd Edition
Royal Armies of the Hyborean Age
Barsoomian Battle Manual

Finally, I would like to cover some of the rulesets that were published in books that I read, and would then either play or modify for our own play.
