Title: 10mm Black Powder, Bavaria vs Saxony 1868 ish
Post by: Duke Speedy of Leighton on 05 January 2019, 01:42:04 AM
I can hear Mollinary and Cameronian screaming with historical inaccuracy, but here is an imag-in-ation battle report as I finally get my Saxons and Bavarians on teh table (against each other)!
Enjoy.

Looks like a fun game, love the troop basing!

And a very important battle in (alternative) world history, determining whose wurst was the worst...

Excellent report and accompanying photography. Never thought of using BP for this period (the rulebook is rudely dismissive - I am assuming Rick Priestly has limited interest in and knowledge of it). Still debating whether to put my remaining 10mm later C19th onto the big bases. It would certainly speed play as BP has no casualty removal before a unit disappears. Wonder if it could also incorporate some VSF steampunk machines? Anyway, cheers for piquing my interest.

I'm keeping my units on 25mm - 30mm square bases, so that I can use them for BBB, BP etc. I now find versatility is very important so I'm not tied to one ruleset.
