Hi Scott, not sure if this is what you are looking for, but it might do as a placebo... But a friend of mine and myself do occasional pickup games using the "Total War" rules. Our play can be fairly eratic, some times almost weekly, sometimes it will be weeks between games. We usually decide a few days in advance to give ourselves time to put together a lance. We often stick to 5000 pt games, and we lean towards earlier Era game (mostly 3025), but we are both fairly easy going. As people, we are both close in age to you (hence the volatile schedules). Message me if any of this sounds of interest. Regards, Michael
