Title: My last SYW game, using HOW
Post by: Leman on 13 August 2023, 12:53:01 PM
A couple of months back now I played a One Hour Wargame scenario with the Honours of War SYW rules. I base my figures on one inch (25mm) squares, 4 bases to a standard unit, giving a 100mm frontage, as used by the 15mm scale QRS (This means I can play on a 3' deep table). Austrians defending against a small Prussian advanced force.

Above: Prussians advance on two fronts. Firefight in town results in Prussians retreating (Smoke is resin broadsides from the Peter Pig pirate ship range).

Great looking game. Good idea with the smoke!
