There’s nothing in it that BattleLore veterans won’t already know, but I wrote up An Introduction to BattleLore for the blog of the Australian games retailer Games Paradise. It’s a nice little primer for those who have yet to discover the joys of playing Battlelore. Check it out!

A very happy Xmas to all of you who visit BattleLoreMaster.com. 2009 could be a big year for BattleLore now that Fantasy Flight Games has taken over, and I think we can all finally rest assured that it won’t be too long before we get our hands on that long-awaited Heroes expansion!
Stick with us here during the quiet times because we’ll still be going strong when things pick up again…
Good health and happiness—and good gaming—to you all!

For you French BattleLore players, way back here we mentioned a very nicely designed French site detailing a BattleLore campaign world. The first part of this campaign is now available on the creator’s forum here.

It’s quite possible that BattleLore wouldn’t exist without the legacy of Dungeons & Dragons, and I’m sure many BattleLore players once played D&D when they were younger, and perhaps still do. Gary Gygax, co-creator of Dungeons & Dragons, passed away this morning, aged 69.
I’ve written a small tribute to the man on my personal blog.

Have a look at the new dice for colour blind users in the latest edition of BattleLore. Subtle helmet markings help to differentiate the helmet colours.

It’s somewhat off-topic (though appropriate for C&C: Ancients players), but while waiting for BattleLore if you feel like a taste of historical mass combat and some pretty astounding visuals, check out the new trailer for 300, the new film based on the Frank Miller graphic novel about the Battle of Thermopylae. More information about the film here. Directed by Zack Snyder (Dawn of the Dead), the film stars Gerard Butler, Lena Headey, David Wenham, Vincent Regan, Rodrigo Santoro and Dominic West and will be released in March next year.
