Has there truly never before been a posting for bo5a?
... well, I just bought it and it looks cool. Any experiences out there? Is it really the same game mechanic as Warmaster?

"It is well that war is so terrible, lest we should grow too fond of it."- Gen. Lee
Yes, the game is (almost) exactly the same as Warmaster.
I think its a great game- the idea of getting everything you need in one box is inspired. You might find it difficult to find an opponent though...
Good news is, because you get everything you need in one box, you should be able to persuade someone else to play with you just because for them its free!
MY FICTION:
Eoheran, A Hero's Death - The tale of an Eldar Ranger, set a mission on an Imperial world.
Phanta Claws - Evil stirring in the Underhive of Necromunda.
Perfect World - A Norse Champion of Chaos, fighting for his vision of utopia.
Sithian's Jewel - A horror story told through Inquisitorial reports.
I head BoFA is coming back in style.
So, it's the new black, then?
Really? I certainly hope so...

sounds cool, where do you get the rules? and what is it about LOTR?
TheEnd
Linkage for all you ever wanted to know about BofA but were afraid to ask....
The rules are only available in the boxed set, though if you look at the Warmaster Living Rulebook you should get some idea as the rules are almost identical.
You'll probably have to mail order the box, not sure if it's still on sale in the US though (it is available over here in Blighty).

This is a game that I would definitely pick up if they still sold it over here, but alas, they don't. By the time I ever heard of it, it was gone. (Have I mentioned how much I love the "Specialist Games" concept?)
Seems like a great way to keep a game from getting any traction.
This game was only created to fulfill part of their tolkien enterprises contract.
Quickly churned-out game in one month, probably only just made back it's production cost, and is now doomed to obscurity.
At least they still sell it, I guess... that's not bad. If it's one thing GW do well, it's keeping their back catalogue buyable and usable.
