Time for another installment of Proxy Wars, where I try to convince you to play a new game with models you already have. Last week we looked at using your Imperial miniatures to play Konflikt ‘47. This week we are going to give them some opponents using a Rebel Alliance force.

Has the new Star Wars: Legion Core Rulebook got you feeling salty? Is your AT-ST looking pedestrian, even for a walker? Do you wish there was a way to enjoy your same, old, tournament crushing, Legion minis without revamped rules sticking in your craw? Fear not, I have the solution you never knew you needed!

Applying Goal Orientation Theory to Warhammer
One thing that graduate students often share with five year olds is a burning desire to share what they are learning with others.
