Hello.
This presentation may be a bit overdue, and i post it also partially because i need a question answered.
I might seem both well adept and not-so-adept at english, and it is due to me not having english as my first language.
I might also seem a bit immature, but do not be fooled, it is my personality.
I have owned the Original Space Hulk + Genestealer and Deathwing, and also Advanced Space Crusade.
Those games was what whet my appettite for miniatures and conversions, including the first multipart plastic beakies Citadel ever released ... RTB ... something.
I'm not really fond of most miniature games systems, nor of their worlds, and yes, that includes Warhammer 40.000. However ... i like certain aspects of WH40K, like the "goth sci-fi", the idea of the Space Marines, the power armor, and the humor that used to be in it, but only is hinted at, at best, nowadays.
As for the game system, i always long for Original SH+Gs&Dw, and ASC, where one attack = one roll.
In the absence of games with those simple attack rules, i started making my own games.
By trial and error, i now have the working principles for making several One Attack=One Roll games.
Why i haven't made them yet?
I have, but noone seemed to want to truly testplay any of them, they just wanted to play them ...
That made me discouraged, so i eventually went on to other games ....
////////////////////////////////////
The question:
If i want to present miniature games rules that needs to be playtested, that is not any official game (yet?), nor for any official game .. then is there any place to post it on this forum?

Was once trying to make a 2D action-strategy scroller based on a mix of WH40K & MLP FiM .... but is no longer.

Hello Tina and welcome to Dakka. First, let me say that your English is grammatically superior to most of what I see online, so you have no need to worry about that.
Regarding your question, I can think of two places on this forum where you may post ideas for new games.
First, and probably best, is the Dakka Discusions forum.
Second, there is a forum called Misc. Miniature Games which may also prove useful.
I hope this helps and, again, welcome.

Thank you for the warm welcome, and that includes Byte and Rampage too, of course
First i thought of Misc. Miniature Games, but then i ran across the even better idea of asking here, just to be certain.
Dakka Discussions, you say?
Ok, i'll check it out
Thank you.

Welcome to DakkaDakka!
Don't worry about your not-so-adept English skills, I know how difficult it is to learn another language. Also you write better than some native English speakers on here...

Misc Miniatures should be the first forum, if little or no reply there, discussions would be next.

Good that i re-checked this thread, then.
(I often check up the site without logging in.)
Ok, Misc Miniature Games it is.
