04 Dec 2007 - Two weeks - hahahaha - Time sure gets away from a person when there are just too many hobbies. I have finally started working on the 6mm site. Hopefully, I can get some of it posted in the next couple of days
04 Mar 2007 - I have started working on a redesign of this site. Zimdar will remain, but there will also
be branches to 6mm Napoleonics, Roaring 20's Gangsters. My current gaming project is Wagram so I am painting a lot of 6mm French and Austrians...
Stay tuned for a new look in a couple of weeks.

Welcome to Tales of Zimdar, a site devoted to Colonial and Victorian Science Fiction wargaming.
Zimdar is a fictional sub-continent where all types of Victorian age encounters may take place. It allows a great group in Kansas City a chance to let their imaginations run wild and the subsequent battles will be based around a very loose story line.
The Zimdar battles and scenarios will not be done in chronological order. Rather, like Kurt Vonegut's character, Billy Pilgrim in Slaughterhouse Five, we remain "unstuck in time".
There will eventually be a collection of scenarios, battle reports, photos and other useful wargaming information available on this site.

23Jun2003 - We bid a fond farewell and best wishes to a Zimdar gamer. Dorian you will be missed! A Sergeant Sibert of the 213th Worchestershires has been named for you. In your honor he will get a +1 bonus on all die rolls where aggression is needed.
