After several successful games of The Men Who Would Be Kings and a
serious-minded discussion with some of my gaming compadres (and an even
longer serious discussion with myself) I have decided to float the idea
of starting a new VSF campaign. Drawing deeply on the seven years of
experience that the Daftrica campaign provided will correct the flaws
that became apparent as time went by.
All are invited to the discussion of what they are looking for but I am the final arbiter of the campaign. I will set forth the rules and modifications to be used, I will establish the entry level commitment for players (be ready to paint your army if you don't already have one available) and the time-lines that will drive the campaign. If you aren't serious, have issues with completing paperwork in a timely manner or want to sponge armies off other players please do not apply. There will always be plenty of slots in the OPFOR side of things for people that only want to show up and push lead.
Baseline requirements are:
1. Have a copy of the rules, The Men Who Would Be Kings, no excuses, none, don't ask. Osprey rules are cheap and widely available, and these are dead-easy to understand.
2. Have an email that is checked regularly, that means daily, preferable twice a day.
3. An army totaling 40 points under the rules, these must be composed of PAINTED period-specific figures from 1850-1900. No recycled WW2 Japanese or such. Certain exceptions will be tolerated but you must come to me on bended knee to ask permission.
4. The ability to undertake the rudimentary math required by the rules.
5. A true sense of the Victorian and a jovial sense of humor, a strong sense of the power of the Pun is welcomed as well.
Further, probably more irrational requirements will be imposed by me on a whim, proper pith-helmets (or other period appropriate headgear) is a possibility.
