Sorry, I'm posting so late but I'm making up this repost for the third time
Reaper:
Great idea! Count yourself in if you want!
@ Spud
The first 'The Messenger Reports'
- Because it's the first issue, I'll go for a 4-man report (4 different armies)
- You can choose the point cost yourself, but use realistic allies (no Angmar allied to Harad or hobbits to Rohan)
- Maybe use some of the 'new' minis ? Or just the profile to represent something, like Gundabads ro represent Dol Guldor great-orcs ? ~ [doesn't really have to]
- I'll say we go for the classic WD style: with some introduction and strategic planning. But I would also add some more tactical explanations during the report
- If you don't want to do such a big report (which is understandable), it's ok of course.
BUT I suggest we do not take 1 battle report writer but different people during the issues, if you're ok with that.
@ Drum
1.
People may always pm me for submiting articles - wat could someone submit:

'
Graphic development etc. needed! (look at my design... eh...
)
' Rangers! Yes, rangers! The journalists of
The Tales of the West, people who intervieuw others (bex. for the 'Hosts of ...'), or produce articles together with them. Someone could bex. create a collum about the 'Paint me an Army' wip forum or create an article about the campaign system of TheFlameoftheWest...
