Jut a quick try-out before i start buying other stuff, looks a bit plain, but i'm keeping it simple; it's about trying the rules:

Thanks!

These rules play nice and smooth, already have a nice exchange going on!

End of game. only french forces left are the artillery and a unit of foreign troops on the hill in the distant corner. everything around the centre hill has been wiped away by the british, but they lost over half their force in the process!

I don't think my wife likes me very much, when I had a heart attack she wrote for an ambulance.

Looks good to me. Sadly the rules are going for £30 plus on Amazon at present, so they will stay there at that price :o

Yeah, i got them for 25 including shipping on the lead adventure forum. problem is that it's the only one not available asan e-book too.

Thanks for that Peter. That's the kick to the butt I need to complete Langensaltza.

This whole game got me thinking, what if i just skip buying in another scale and get more 2 mm  :-\

I guess having your infantry in line doesn't look good if they are 4 separate blocks. I think i will play this one again using my 40x20 acw bases. That will give me an idea how it will look in 10mm.

Thanks!

The best part about it, there's still plenty of room for more troops on that table  8-}

What about BG 33 ? It's 56 men in 2 ranks

I really should have got a couple when I last ordered from Irregular so I could say what they're like.
