Reply To: The issue of the "elite" army (and finding opponents)….

Maybe look for rules that offer more historical armies?

I don’t know anyone with a Waffen SS force, except me… and mine is SS Police Regiment Bosen. But then SS in the rules we use ain’t really much different… they don’t get special rules for being supermen, cos they weren’t.

 

The point is, if it’s not working in one chosen system, it might not be all of historical gaming… just one set if rules that offer something that may play loose with historiography in order to provide stereotyped differences to provide lots of different ‘factions’. So try different games… lots out there.

Maybe avoid ones that lean towards competitive style play over historical play…
