    It is, they get to play Romans on Cimbria Chersonesos 47 BC this time. But you could, IMO it is a nice way of propagating history and historical knowledge. Even if the audience is limited.

    Actually, the term 'game system' is also used for rules sets when it comes to pen&paper RPGs too

    Definately. This one runs using my friend Oleg's DBA-inspired "Skirmish" rules, only us in the group knows them. He has recently put the "modern-ish" (Musket, and early modern versions) online I think, and I lobby for him to put Skirmish there as well. When I get the green light I will show you a link if interested.

    Examples of our campaigns:

    Takshendal (Jan)
    Rocketman (Jan)
    Turbator Germania (me)

    Jan runs the best games I have participated in and heard about since I started 1986, Oleg who started 1976 agrees.
