I know its highly unlikely to be everyones cup of tea but I am genuinely excited about this. The vast majority of stuff that has been released Naps wise over the past few years has been v.poor.

Yep, I know there are several round these parts looking forward to the release of FoG Nappys.

But for my gaming group we really like DBN, http://www.dbnwargaming.co.uk

It plays smooth especially with multiple players per side. One on One play is great, game over inside an hour using the basic points per army.

We just need Prussians to show up in the Pendraken world

Do say what you think why dont you. I'd disagree.

I alos like WMA, BCK series, hail Cearser, BP, and battle Group MR.

Have to agree with Jim Ando - thank the gods Osprey are going to turn their hand to other types of rules!

Does anyone know what scale there aimed at  I mean regimental or brigade sized bases?

Cheers

From what I've been able to glean so far a base represents 450 inf or 175 cav and a unit of 4 bases is a brigade/regiment.

Any ideas what base sizes will be?

Blind guess - but 40mm frontage, depths as per ren or ancients.

Look for the response from the playetest team - however this was June this year

It seemed to get the usual TMP treatment: http://theminiaturespage.com/news/talk/msg.mv?id=1163926818

I too am looking forward to the arrival of FOG. Napoleonics has always been my period of choice but FOG Ancients has really had me enjoying my games since I overdosed on DBM. I expect the new FOG to do the same for my 1809 fetish! 

I stand by the point I made on TMP.

I have better things to spend £75 on than another set of Napoleonic rules + 2 (essential?) supplements.

I am going with Le Feu Sacre III by Too Fat Lardies.  Affordable, quick play and fun for corps level battles.  And I really like the emphasis on command control and FOW within LFSIII.

Here is a site with napoleonic replays using LFSIII:
