When I woke up, I remembered it all, but something nagged at the back of my mind about it."Roundheads and Cavaliers"? I had never heard of any such game, and I've never played any real-world historical minis war games.Throughout my morning, the memory of the dream would come to mind, sort of like a shadow of something meaningful was there but I wasn't getting it. So while sitting at my computer, I looked up "Roundheads and Cavaliers" through Google just to see if there actually is a game by this name.Going through a few web pages, I discovered: <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cavaliers_and_Roundheads_%28game%29" target="_blank">Cavaliers and Roundheads</a>, (reverse of the name in my dream), is actually a table-top miniatures war game -- by Jeff Perren and Gary Gygax! It's not from the HYW, (C&R is the English Civil War), but the army tech of the ECW does match the images of the miniatures I had in my dream, (the HYW army tech would not).I don't remember having ever heard of this game before my dream, but as much as I've read about EGG and his work, I must have seen a reference to C&R at some point. I really doubt that my dream just randomly came up with this name out of the blue. But, wow, it floored me when I just now discovered this.Now I'm interested in learning more about this game. Anyone here played it?Something about a dream leading to a strange real-world connection is weird cool. Have you had something real revealed from a dream?Bullgrit</blockquote>
