Hi Jeremy I would be intrigued to know a bit more about what you misinterpreted - incase I could make it clearer in any subsequent version of rht e rules. Glad...
Hello gents. I purchased a copy of Minden Rose recently and wish to introduce myself. I've been playing miniatures games since the early 1960's, starting with...
Hello Vincent Minden Rose is a nice set of rules but lacks the friction in command mechanisms as with LFS and the other Too Fat Lardies rules - I would welcome...
... Hello Kelvin The command rules - brigades attack, defend or retire - are nearly identical to our club rules. Our orders change by die roll too, except the...
... Hi Vincent, having had the pleasure of gaming with the author, I can only say that Barry is very easy going as regards formation changes - the move is...
Hi. Sorry if this has been asked before, but, in the scenarios i can't see a mention of table size. Are all tables used in the book and on this site a standard...
Hi Have not purchased Minden Rose as yet but they do sound interesting Couple of questions What size are units ? ie 3 or 4 bases or ? How does the simultaneous...
Hi Gary, Â I really like Minden Rose (am not on Commission). Â Unit size can vary, 3-6 stands. 4 stands is normal. We use 10mm figs with 4 stands per inf...
Hi ... Roger that ... at the end of the turn and you role for initiative and then move all your troops (or make the opponent move first). Roget that ... ...
Hi Just got rules, and very nice they are too :-) One initial from read through Under responses to charges it says a unit cant make formation change but can...
Hi Gary, this one bothered me too. The rules aren't really clear about how a line can turn to face a flank attack (the most common situation likely under this...
Hi Keith ... about how a line can turn ... heading). Yes I was wondering what this is simulating ? an emergency formation change or does Barry simply mean you...
Hi Gary In special manoeuvres, 9.4 there are two types of turn, both eligible for a charge from the flank (or rear) - the first is a 90 degree turn - leaving...
Nev I'm going down the 10mm (Pendraken) Figures on a 15mm scale base - I'm interested in how many figures you manage to cram on. I'm proposing Close order...
The group I game with has just started using Minden Rose, and its an instant hit. But inevitably there are some situations that cause some disagreement and I...
Hi,  Would appreciate some clarification on point 1 too. These are an ace set of rules and have also gone down well at our club (we do 10mm). Maybe it...
Hi to you both. 1. It was intended that the unit splits its force. So some of the stands fight one enemy unit and the remainder the other, all depending on...
Thanks Barry, The rules certainly don't get in the way, and in fact have started a surge of interest in the period where none existed before. Which is costing...
Hi Matt Thats really interesting, because I played around with the notion of only allowing columns to fight with the front two stands, thus reducing their...
Thanks Barry, We might try the changes to column next week. As for the rest of the Prussians, well they were slaughtering my Austrian allies...I was lucky and...
We've played a couple of games now and have one fairly crucial question to resolve : On the 3HPS result of artillery battery silenced, does this mean that a ...
I would play it as the gun crew were wounded / killed and therefore the gun disabled - if your models allow it leave the gun in place but remove the crew -...
Hi there 3HPS means the battery is silenced, and cannot shoot, move, limber or unlimber, during the following bound. 4HPS means all of the above and also...
To keep the table tidy and make it easy to see which units are disordered etc we decided to use casualty figures to designate a disordered unit. It seems to...
