does anyone have the mighty empires set?

so i've been flipping through my copy of blood in the badlands and i'm intrigued by the idea and was wondering if anyone had the mighty empires set for fantasy.

Are you talking about this set?

If so, we have two sets painted up and assembled at the store. Chase can confirm, but I think it's in Plainville at the moment. I have the thin rulebook in Abington which I could send down.

There was also a much older, more robust campaign box set that was also called Mighty Empires. GW has provided the link to a PDF of the rules here:

yep thats the stuff exactly, thank you sir. i'll sift through those rules as well, but its really the map tiles that i'm interested in having access to.

yeah, i'd really like to get something going but i have no experience running events so i was thinking starting small maybe 3-4 guys and working out the kinks from there.

I've played that campaign before, the rules are ok. A few are too unbalanced and you may want to leave them out. It's really easy to do. I think my set was left at veterans games, so its probably long gone now.
