Anyone know anything about this or actually used it?

Hello,

I downloaded this week as it seems that their are downloadable files so you can play Blucher. I also noticed a Quatre Bras Black Powder scenario - however wasn't able to get anything working.

Will have a look this weekend and let you know if I have any luck.

I've done a couple of Black Powder games by myself

Essentially it's a computerised version of a wargame that you can play either by yourself or with other people

You will need a Steam account and at least one copy of Tabletop Simulator. I bought 4 copies (at a reduced price) and gave 3 to my mates

It eats computer memory and graphics so you do need a reasonable powerful computer

Be aware that it does not handle rules or movement or combat. The only thing it does do is roll dice. Therefore you need to do everything

I am impressed with it as there are loads ald loads of games for it

I would recommend watching this video
