Mah Jong Like many other traditional games, there are a wide variety of forms of Mah Jong which makes things somewhat difficult for anyone trying to find the definitive set of rules. The first rules given here are based on the original Chinese game which is the simplest and probably the most skillful form. Also given are additional rules for the British game. This version differs slightly to the typical Chinese game because only one chow is allowed per hand and the Chinese game has fewer "special hands". Both games differ significantly from the typical style of play performed in the USA,where a large and complicated set of "special hands" have been invented beyond the initial Chinese set and where a player cannot go Mah Jong with more than one suit in hand. We also give a version of Mah Jong for 3 players playing in a triangle. See also our quality Mah Jong sets. Equipment Basic Equipment A set of Mah Jong tiles consists of 144 tiles typically around 30 x 20 x 15mm. Optional Equipment Preparation

Social Distortion Toy Machine Bloodsucking Skateboard Co. Warhammer Fantasy: 8th Edition | Dice of Doom Update: We discuss the changes to the rules in our latest podcast. It’s upon us: the 8th edition of Warhammer Fantasy. With a new rulebook twice as thick as the old one, the new edition sports a lot of small rules changes which add up to a lot. I’ll be going through most of the important new changes to the game, and highlighting how theses affected the games of 8th Edition I’ve played so far. Army Building The first big change in 8th edition Warhammer is the move from army slots to percentages. What this means is an army has to be far more balanced than in the past. Movement Units in 8th edition are generally more manoeuvrable than before, with easier reforming; having a musician makes it very easy to reform. Skirmishers in Warhammer Fantasy now use a spaced formation when not in combat, and don't have 360° vision, although they can reform freely. The big change is charging, though: charging is now 2d6″ + Movement, so, for a standard 4″ movement human, 2d6 + 4″. Magic Shooting Close Combat
