Wolsung Skirmish Game Beta Test

If you're interested in trying out the new Steampunk Skirmish Rules for Wolsung, then check out the new webpage devoted to this new game.

The rules are in a beta test phase, but they're available for free download.

I’m an Elf player (couldn’t you tell) but those Orcs are just fantastic!
