Aha, so a kind of interactive battle with the community setting it up, could be interesting.

[Colonel Kane]

This is a neat idea. I use to play BFG many moons ago, however I have been run off so to speak. I will have to watch this and see how it goes just for giggles. Have you ever though about doing this as say, players 1 and 2 email you their moves? You move and do the dice rolling and email back the results?

[afterimagedan]

Kane, I have thought of that. For this battle report, I am doing the community vs one of the local gamers in my area. Next time, I may do it the way you mentioned.

[afterimagedan]

There are 2 lists that have been posted on the Specialist Games forum post (http://sg.tacticalwargames.net/forum/index.php?topic=4240.0) for your approval!

[gredert]

this is a cool idea, and I will need to keep an eye out for more of them since I love the game but can never get a game in.

[afterimagedan]

Well you can still take part in this! There is a link above to where the internet game is being discussed. Head over to that thread and join the fight!
