Using 10mm in the Netherlands

[Leman]

This is my second 10mm game since moving to the Netherlands. It's taken a while getting the flat into shape (and is still a work in progress) and I had to get my head round posting photos again, not an area I am very proficient in. This is part of a SYW campaign being fought between Austria and Prussia using the Honours of War (Osprey) rules and a mix of Pendraken and Old glory figures with a few Irregular figures thrown in for good measure. I am using a Deep Cut mat with a six inch (15cm) grid. This is useful for laying out the battlefield as HOW has been written with 28mm figures in mind and scenarios generally on a 6'x4' playing area. However the rules come with tables at the back for using smaller figures (downloadable on the HOW website as playsheets) so I opted for the same frontage as 15mm figures which means most scenarios can be fought on a 3'x2' playing area, yet still look like a full battle.



The Maurice Action Cards are being used as fate cards to give a little bit more unpredictability to the game. The Maurice notable cards were also used to determine the C-in-Cs and brigade commanders to help build a narrative.

I have now managed to track down the actual fate cards used in the simple SYW campaign I am using. Anyone interested should see Happywanderers contributions on the Honours of War website in both the Scenario and Battle Report sections.

Arrange us jobs in Amsterdam....

[Leman]

Nah, get up here to Groningen. More countryside and fewer crowds, plus a fantastic city and lots to see for those interested in late WWII.
