Title: The Second Battle of Presswitz, 163_

The only thing that can come after the first battle of Presswitz is the second battle of that name!

Another great looking game Keraunos.

Sounds like you have found a set of rules that you and your players are very happy with. 

Getting through 26 turns in one session is impressive!  :)

Maybe not.  The turns alternate between sides.  In odd numbered turns, one side takes action tests and moves while the other takes morale tests in reaction to those movements - or to continuing engagements. On even numbered turns, the roles are reversed.  Like with Blucher.

Thanks for the info, never played the ruleset you use.

My particular slice of heaven for gaming the C17 period is For King and Parliament.

I will take a look at For King and Parliament.  I have only ever played Twilight of Divine Right, so am not aware of what I am missing.
