Hi all, necroing this thread to introduce myself. I'm Shane from Kawerau a small town located in the North Island of Aotearoa/New Zealand. Have loved the game since buying the 1st edition metal miniatures version and have recently been itching to get it back to the table after decades of gathering dust.
Greetings! I'm a new player & I've played a lot of the current version of the LOS. I have played 3 games of LOS using the blue rulebook from the blue box; 1st edition?
Late to the game, but hopefully better late than never...
Hello, all. Loooonnnnggggtime player and frequent poster on the old site up until a couple of years ago (real life got in the way). Missed the recent Kickstarters, unfortunately. Delighted to see some life in the ol' game again.
Curious if anyone knows if the users "smokingwreckage," "grendeljd," "brother jim," or "scoutzout" are around here?
Hello all! I'm Craig and I live just north of Toronto, Ontario with my partner Jessica. I am a former tabletop game developer, writer, and production team member from many MANY years back and over the years have been involved in a number of projects. I have been in contact with Marco over the past weeks ever since I saw his mention of Legions of Steel on Facebook and have offered any assistance I can give to the game's upcoming revival.
Over the decades, I've seen a lot of wargames come and go; but Legions of Steel really stands out as having a lot of potential to be an industry mainstay. The backstory, the ruleset, the visual themes and overall design are familiar enough to entice new players, but is still very unique and original enough to foster a dedicated community around it like many other great games.
I lived in a small town too. We had to travel either north or south to go to game stores or bookstores etc. that sold game items, anyway, I remember seeing and closley examining the 1st edition but nobody I knew had it, sadly.
Hi all! My name is Jeff, playtesting here in Denver, Colorado, U.S. Played the heck out of the 1st edition box set back in the day, loving the new rules! Running a demo table this upcoming weekend (February 15 and 16th) at GhengisCon here in Denver, stop by and get some game in!
Hello. My name is Ryan, I'm located in Burnaby, British Columbia, Canada. I use to play Legions of Steel a long time ago and I somehow managed to keep all of the original Tiles. No minis or rules though. I'm looking forward to trying out the game again; my buddy and I would like to join in the playtesting. Thanks.
Hi, all. I am also a big fan of Legions of Steel and have been buying nearly all of its products I could find and following its progress since it first began. I am glad Marco is able to get this rolling again. Looking forward to the 2nd edition. I am also a playtester for it here in Edmonton and Alberta overall at least, so maybe we will meet at a convention sometime.
Greetings all, My name is Lembit and I have been a fan of LoS since it first came out. I met Marco back in the day at the Pandemonium convention in Toronto. I live in Hamilton, Ontario. I am a playtester and have a couple of friends who I introduced the original game to a couple of years ago and will be playtesting with me. I look forward to possibility of meeting Marco again (as well as his son whom I met at the recent TABSCON in Toronto). I wIll keep my fingers crossed in hopes that the Kickstarter is a big success (It has always been so much better than Space Hulk/Warhammer 40K IMHO).
Hello I'm also Steve. Looking forward to seeing what you have planned. Would be nice to blow the dust off the my old LOS collection and make room for some new stuff :)
Hi, Steve! My "real" name is Steve too and I live on Vancouver Island, British Columbia. I'm excited about the return of LoS as well. I was aware of LoS back-in-the-day but didn't get the opportunity to play. It's funny how things work-out sometimes. This year I purchased a bunch of new-old-stock from a terrifc store called The Sentry Box, I found the Legions of Steel Forum, and now I'm a playtester for the upcoming relaunch!

Hey, Jeff! I'm Steve a playtester living on Vancouver Island, British Columbia. I didn't play
back-in-the-day but wished I had done. It's super cool that you're running demos at GhengisCon. No doubt, it'll be fun!

Hey, Marco, lol, I'm dumb! Found it & added a Legions of Steel Counters topic under
GAMEPLAY GUIDES + TIPS. Thanks!
Hey Steve. I believe there is an icon under your message which let's you attach a file. Let me know if you find it
