After a week of prevaricating I've finally ordered a copy of Hammer's Slammers: The Crucible I've long been a fan of David Drake's books and bought a copy of the original game when it came out, although I never got around to playing it as I couldn't decide on what scale to go with. However with the news that Old Crow are master moulding the 6mm versions of the Slammer tanks and seeing a selection of pages (here) I couldn't resist. After seeing the (so-called) "eye candy" of the 40K car park (aka Spearhead) in WD, The Crucible looks soooo much better...

Dear Stephen
ReplyDeleteHope you like it.
I am currently writing an sf novel with David.

I'd like to know what you think of the rules once they get to you, I don't know anything about the older version, but am curious about these.
ReplyDeleteWow, the PDF you showed really is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to get into it, but there's way too much on my plate!
Have to agree with the '40k carpark', I'll probably repeat that somewhere!
Rob
Got mine ordered too- 6mm is the perfect scale for combat cars and panzers!
