1) What ruleset do you use in your last game?      -     Ganesha Games' Sellswords and Spellslingers
2) What armies were confronted?       -       Human (four characters) played by me v Orcs and Trolls played by the rules
3) Did you feel comfortable with the ruleset?      -       Yes, though I probably missed a rule or two and tweaked the deployment method a little.
4) and... was this the first time you used this ruleset?       -       Yes
5) How many players were in the game?      -     Just me. They are for solo or co-operative games.
6) What went well?       -     The gradual build up of tension as more foes appeared.
7) What could have been improved?      -       my dice rolling could have been better!  Great fun.

I've stuck a report on my blog (http://tenmilwargames.blogspot.com/2018/06/fun-with-sellswords-spellslingers-or.html).

Welcome on board Steve. Great looking game and love the Blog name

The Blog is all the work of my Regular opponent Hugh.

I greatly admire his ability to remember and recount the narrative of our games.
His techniques for annotating the pictures to produce little diagrams are a great way to let the pictures tell some of the story.

Hi

1) What ruleset do you use in your last game? To the Strongest!
2) What armies were confronted?   Late Republican Romans v Gauls   
3) Did you feel comfortable with the ruleset?    Yes - very
4) and... was this the first time you used this ruleset?  No
5) How many players were in the game?  4   
6) What went well?     The smooth flow of the rules without too many things needing to be looked up. Particularly like the way Roman generals do not have to be attached to particular units and can therefore move around but the Gallic generals had to be attached. 
7) What could have been improved?  Not sure, maybe allowing Light cavalry to evade easier than other heavier cavalry?

Cheers Paul

A few pictures of my mate's portable Japanese table; he brought everything round to my place and it took only about 20 minutes to set up and start playing.

Hi

1) What ruleset do you use in your last game? Fire & Fury (original brigade version)
2) What armies were confronted?   Billy Yanks v Johnny Rebs (Eastern theatre)   
3) Did you feel comfortable with the ruleset?    Yes - very
4) and... was this the first time you used this ruleset?  No
5) How many players were in the game?  4   
6) What went well?   Familiarity with the rules with 3 people I had not played the rules with before.   
7) What could have been improved? Bigger table, we were playing on a 6' x 4' table and with 12" infantry moves we could have done with something larger. Still, excellent game with good company and probably my favourite rule set of any period.

Cheers Paul

"Vanilla Marines"  - now I want to paint a Chapter in a creamy-yellow off white colour scheme!

The Marines are coming - hundreds and thasands of 'em!

1. BBB - Beaumont scenario

2. Prussian/Bavarian v Imperial French

3. Extremely comfortable with these rules as I have played them many times over the past couple of years. I have even bought armies (Pacific War 10mm/Mid-C19th 2mm) specifically for this ruleset.

5. 2 players

6. Familiarity with the rules led to a very smooth flowing game. The scenario construction meant a clear outcome.

7. I lost again. [see Batreps]
