Like most gamers I buy lots of rules (I think the "oooh, shiny" syndrome is at work here), tinker with them, tinker with them some more and then eventually give up and try a new set. This goes on and on and even when we find a set we like, a new edition or supplement comes out that changes things.
We will all have our own views and opinions of what is important with rules. A rule set that I love will be hated by someone else.
Many of us start writing a set of rules, tinker with it, write cryptic annotations we can't understand later and eventually give up. This blog hopefully will achieve a number of things:
1. Encourage me to actually finish the set!
2. Give you a set of rules you can use (edit, amend, rant at, etc).
3. Give an insight into how rules develop over time.
4. Let me argue that my rule writing time could be classed as research for what I am writing not "playing with toy soldiers" as my fiancee phrases it.
Hope you enjoy the journey.
