Last week end my dad and I ran our first Napolionic game using Blackpowders rule set. I have posted a AAR with pics on my blog at the following link, please take the time to check it out:

Hi, I'm not sure that I understand your question?
Manners FK, manners!
Hi slimreidy, welcome to the forum. Despite what you might think given the first reply to this post the forum is generally good humoured, supportive and knowledgeable! Hope you find it informative and fun.
Loved the batrep. Nicely painted figures on great terrain backed by a well written report, well done.
Commiserations on the outcome of the battle, I look forward to more batreps like this.
Vive L'Empereur!!

Lol see where you coming from, Sunday morning typing skills I'm afraid...
Well the very first one says Blackpowder game, so I wonder what happened. The game looks very impressive. Nice one!
Excellent little game, Slimreidy. Nicely painted figures. Who makes the little buildings?
Oh, and welcome to the forum. You'll get used to our little quirks if you hang around. :)
Nice looking game and full of action. Great to see the Austrians see of those damned Frenchies ;) :D. Oh and welcome to the forum.
Well done the Austrians, but flicking thru your blog I sense a theme - I think you need a complete new set of dice, especially so for rolling saves and command!
Btw what figures are you using for the Italian wars, and do you have a copy of your lists? I was goin to use P&S but am more and more tempted towards Impetus!
Go for it Toxic. They are my go to rules nowadays for the Italian Wars. Now building Flodden armies for Impetus.
My other group plays it in 15mm with Impetus & it works really well. It's just I reckoned I could sell the club on P&S easier... But I've swing back to Impetus tbh!
Need a few more figures for back ranks of pike though. Tragic :D
Nice report!
Welcome to the forum!!
Really nice painting.
Read your AAR...good looking everything.
Looking really nice, Neil!
Hi, good to see you at the Donington show this weekend, and welcome to the Forum!

Hi, the Italian War figures are a mix of Black Hat Miniatures 15mm renaissance range and Museum Miniatures Landsknecht range. The lists are actually from the Pike and shot rule book.
Cheers

Hi Leon,
A big thanks from my Dad and myself for bringing our order the Donington, it was greatly appreciated!
:)
Sorry, Neil, I meant not which army lists did you use, but what did you actually pick from said lists :)
If you still have a copy, and have time to say what they were :D

Hi
All the buildings apart from the barn are from 'Total Battle Miniatures' from the Black Power Europe range which are sold by Pendraken. The barn is from hovels.
Cheers
Neil

No problem, I will sort the lists out and get back to you with them, probably will have to after the weekend mind :)
Thanks everyone for the welcome and the comments on the game :)
Cheers Neil, I'm just always interested in other peoples set ups for periods I'm interested in :)
