Thanks for the link! I've got an actual dead-tree copy, but it's nice to snag a PDF as well!

Does anyone know if you can buy toy cannons that actually shoot, as in these rules?

There was going to be a fantasy version called "Little Orc Wars" (by Skirmisher Publishing), but they seem to have abandoned it (although they still have a forum for it on their site). Some of the artwork was pretty funny too - I remember a picture of a group of orcs holding a book called 'Medieval Siege Warfare' over their heads to protect them from arrows fired from a castle.

Thanks for the link. Picking up some turn-of-the-century ghost stories as well.

You're welcome, dude. :)

@ Age of Fable: I have no idea where to find such cannons.

When I was a kid you could get spring-loaded plastic cannon that would fire a matchstick. Don't know if they're still available, they might have been banned in our cotton wool-clad world...

I remember seeing a Youtube video that had someone firing off a tiny cannon. I don't remember the name or where, though.

Excuse the thread resurrection, was googling for the original version and found this thread, thanks for that link, it still works. And I have an update to this:

Skirmisher has just released the fantasy version:
