Just to get this topic going again.. I'm after some ECW rules after a long lay off..

I'm wanting a rules set that doesn't have you taking casualties off. Hated that in the old days. I think I'll be basing on three bases per regiment, either 40x20 or 40x30.

Regiment of Foote and the Warmaster variant seem to be the fave's from this thread. Do any of these fit the bill?

I want a quick flowing game, uncertain command with no rivert counting (sorry I do trains and scooters).

I would also like a campaign system if possible.

Hi Cudders

You could always have a look at the Perfect Captain's Very Civile Actions, which has the Tinker Fox campaign system hanging off it - http://perfectcaptain.50megs.com/vcactions.html, if you don't like them then you can console yourself with the thought that they're free  . I've also used the Tinker Fox system attached to other rules.

I echo Grumpy's recommendation, especially Tinker Fox and the Battlefinder system,  and would suggest that you also take a look at "Lion of the North" actually written for the 30 years war but suitable for the ECW. These will give the uncertain command, game flow and simplicity that you are looking for.

Thanks alot guys.. I'll try all the free ones first and see if they suit..

If not then it's hands in the pockets.

Think I need to find a local gaming group for a try and get myself back into it.
