We tried other editions but they seemed too asinine.<br /><br />I bought the Battlesystem rules but regard them as fifteen quid I'd rather have back, thanks. <br /><br />Wings of War I like. Seems a decent set of rules. <br /><br />Thanks for the memories!A Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07834159033854153921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4167684119478977136.post-90501272592267652122012-05-25T10:07:42.258+01:002012-05-25T10:07:42.258+01:00(previous post but one, actually :D)(previous post but one, actually :D)Mike Whitakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02165272678144625943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4167684119478977136.post-7474890419041269142012-05-25T10:06:11.392+01:002012-05-25T10:06:11.392+01:00*grin*

IIRC the basic mechanism involved matrixing hit roll against a dice roll, and looking up how many hit dice/points of damage that did.<br /><br />I have a strong memory that the second edition, which I also own and was a complete rewrite, sucked, and I can't remember why. I may now have to go raid my bookshelves and find out.
