Hello, I,m Paul. I'm English but live in the Black Forest Germany.
There's no wargaming Clubs near me so I am a solo wargamer by default. I'm just about to start a Wars of the Roses Project using Pendraken minis and will use the Sword and Spear rules.
I have other 10mm projects in mind, would love to do SYW and I kind of started a Fantasy project which i hope to finish and use The Portable Wargame.
Cheerio for now :)

Welcome aboard.

WOTR and SYW are both enormous fun, and the ranges here for both are excellent.
I don't drink coffee to wake up. I wake up to drink coffee.

What ho, Paul!

I'm not one who indulges in Lace Wars - anything between Malpaquet and Maida is of no interest - however, have you looked at the upcoming AWI ranges? They are really, really good sculpts.

Welcome.

No didn't know about that. What rules would you use with them?

Totally wrong person to ask, Old Boy. I write my own rules. 

However, I'm sure some kind, knowledgeable soul could reel off a few. There's probably a gross of numpties who also have a list.

Difficulty is spotting which is which.  :-\

I myself, are proudly and firmly in the numpty category.

Rimmer: "Aliens."

Lister: "Oh God, aliens... Your explanation for anything slightly peculiar is aliens, isn't it?

Rimmer: "Well, we didn't use it all, Lister. Who did?"

Lister: "Rimmer, aliens used our bog roll?"

OK, leave me hanging.

I suggest that some clever, experienced, handsome, wise forumite will come up with a list of rulesets suitable for the late C18 and nobody steps forward.

Therefore either a) there are no erudite gentlemen on this forum (which is a distict possibily) or b) nobody plays late C18 (which  is less likely, but going to be a blow when Leon releases all those new  figures.)

No need to apologise. My comment was directed at the other members. Normally, they will pile in with suggestions for rule sets at various levels (army, brigade, skirmish.) I thought there would be some helpful responses by now.
