I like the idea of meeting beforehand to give anyone else a chance to score
stuff they have questions about... also gives you a chance to preview the
opposing forces! >:)
Oh, and anyone who needs extra forces (if you're short on Castle figs)-- I
can cover you with pre-built figs (including champions, heros, etc)... And
maybe some ballistas or something extra to boot :) [I love to overdo castle :)]
<switching gears>
As for scoring troops, I've recently been working on a little script to
score troops-- It's not finished yet, although the basics work so far. It
makes for a nice little printout page complete with total CP, total MP, AV,
Skill, etc-- just a simple form:
http://www.suave.net/~dave/bw.cgi
It doesn't yet cover things like CC skill/damage versus Ranged skill/damage,
increased/decreased UR for things like a crossbow depending on # of hands
wielded with, etc (it also needs to list stupendous feats), but the basics
are working...
I emailed Mike about it yesterday (along with a throng of questions) but
haven't heard back from him... Anyway just click a tek level, fill out the
form, then click "Get Stats" and it'll give you a nice little score sheet
for your troops... It won't help much for VEHICLES, etc, but for a TL 2 game
(like this upcoming one) it'll work. It also assumes that you kinda know the
rules already, or at least have them alongside you-- it's more-or-less just
something to tally and record all your numbers for you nicely... 'course
since I'm the only one who showed up with handwritten sheets each time,
maybe I just needed it the most :)
Anyway, feel free to be my beta-testers :) I'll most likely finish it up
this week and post it to lugnet.fun.gaming... but any input is welcome...
