Pendraken acquires Blitzkrieg Commander family of rulesets!

[Ithoriel]

My own stuff is intended for Kursk so later in '43 than you're looking at.

I posted bits and pieces about my German forces in this thread

http://www.pendrakenforum.co.uk/index.php/topic,8613.0.html

Inevitably I have more German stuff and a whole Russian force still to paint 

I'd be interested to see some pictures of whatever you come up with.

This thread has sent me off to the battlegroup generator to make some lists for mid ish Ost front. Dang you, tempting me for yet more bits of the war I don't have immediately to hand

Congratulations on the acquisition Leon & Co. - not a bit surprised, it's an almost natural evolution.
Look forward to see what direction the rulebooks take, in particular with your slew of releases, new periods and of course the Future War Commander IP (sci-fi expansion in the works? Dent in DZC's 10mm sci-fi stranglehold?)
Ummm....interesting gossip times ahead (not that I lose sleep over it but do follow industry developments in the hobby we love so much....)
Hey if you want to launch a Kickstarter campaign offering lots of stretch goals for the re-publication and starter armies/lines - THIS DOWNUNDER MONKEY's in!

Is there a release date yet and will you be taking advance orders?

Does it cover the whole WW2 period or is it targeted at mid-late war?

Cheers

The old version covered the whole war (when I read it at the weekend).

[Ithoriel]

Existing version starts with the Spanish Civil War, The Winter War and The Far East (37-41) and goes on to cover the whole of WW2. One of the attractions of the rules was the all-in-one-book coverage of the extended conflict.

The Winter War.

A mate of mine once pulled a Finnish lass due to his knowledge of said war.......

You're going for an Oikish Knighthood for next year, aren't you ?

The rules will span the same period as originally, so all of WWII including the Winter War. 

At the moment the plan is to do a separate supplement for the SCW though.  I know people prefer everything in one book but we've got such a large SCW range that we'd like to expand on the original two army lists in BKC and produce a small (probably pdf) supplement that can add in some more flavour for the period and with more army lists.

There's no release date as yet and I'm not sure whether we'll be doing advance orders on it, I'll have a think on that.  We should have the completed text back to us very soon and then I can get started on the layout/formatting.

It should also cover the Korean war. CWC should start in 1956....

That would be rather splendid...... 

[AJ at the Bank]

Any update for the expected release of the new rules please?

[Womble67]

As I understand it they are back with Leon and he's proof reading it and reformating the layout then printers

Take care

Hi,

I readed that a french version of BC2 was available in the past, will it be available again ? On Lulu I didn't find it.

Thank you !

[barbarian]

Never saw the french version. Didn't know there was one.
