News December 2017 40mm Join our 40mm Facebook group to enjoy gaming in slightly bigger scale. Wild West Much of my gaming time has been taken up with playing Blaze Of Glory again. I am busy writing a 3rd edition of the rules and am building a new wild west town - Persistence- in 40mm. Keep an eye on the BOG site as this project unfolds. French & Indian War Has taken a bit of a back seat recently. I still aim to make a mini site for it to show off our 40mm figures in all their glory. Watch this space. End Of Empire Pete is still playing EOE and I get to every now and then. Too many ideas not enough time. Busy, busy, busy...:0) Tim

Who are SPIRIT OF THE GAME? We are a small group of friends in Essex who have played various tabletop wargames together for the last 25 years. Over the years we have played many different systems - fantasy, sci-fi and historical. These days we mostly play games of our own devising. However we do still dable with other games systems. PLEASE NOTE WE
ARE NOT
To find out more about us and what we do, explore the sites below. Why SPIRIT OF THE GAME? Over the years we have played various games, our usual principle is: Play a game once, if it's a good game, play it again! Nowadays we find we don't have as much time to play as we would like, and our overriding concern is to have fun! There are a number of things that have little importance to us: Winning at all costs (winning is important, why play a game if you don't want to win? But not at the cost of enjoyment.) Fussing over the precise, exactness of a figure's appearance (are those the right colour epaulettes?) Spending countless hours debating if that might really have happened (its only a game you know!) Playing in the 'spirit of the game' then is the most important element of what we do. What's this site for then? As we have developed new games or campaigns we have produced websites for them, this site acts as an umbrella for those other sites allowing you to visit various sites produced by us, and hopefully encourage you to play in the spirit of the game. N.B. This site is run by gamers for gamers. Where we refer to someone else's product we do so IN THE SPIRIT OF THE GAME no infringement of copyright is intended. All of our sites provide relevant links to the copyright holders and to other manufacturers.
