Well, apart from a player, I'm also a writer and artist, among other things.
There I was last week, googling for some Renaissance-style swordsmanship inspiration pictures for a project of mine, when I chanced upon the front cover of Bastards. The rest as they say is history.

I stumbled across "Band of Bastards" on the net, and was immediately hooked. TROS made right? A good system for simulating murdering people with langmessers in a german state somewhere in 1526?
Im in.
When im not thinking about such things, I am a 40 years old Norwegian schoolteacher with a wife that tolerates my interests, and a couple of sons whom I am currently teaching the sabre.

Hello! I wish you patience, Bastards need a lot
You're joining relatively late, though. Maybe you won't have to wait very long for a finished game. Lucky bastard
Have fun on the forums!
Hi all, Wayne from NZ here, I'm a long time player /GM/inveterate system tinkerer, and fan of the original TROS. So glad to the see folks keen to iron out the kinks in my favourite mechanic...
Where are you from in NZ? I spent the months from Feb to Apr on your little islands with my wife and son and haven't seen many gaming stores on the roads... just one martial arts store in Auckland, close to a gaming Café, where patrons could rent board games. So I wondered already whether there were Kiwi gamers at all
