I'm new here. As I've rapidly gone through the Richard Sharpe novels, I've grown in interest toward the Napoleonic period. As you might imagine, the first unit...
Welcome to the group. Its been very slow on this mailing list, perhaps some new blood will perk it up. Our local group uses a The Sword & the Flame(TSATF)...
I noticed the Sword and the Flame is for the Colonial period (correct)? I assume it adapts well for Napoleonic play? (Otherwise, whu would you use 'em! :-) ) ...
Yes to all three questions. TSATF has been around for quite a while and is a fun simple game to play regardless of period. At historicon, the author of TSATF,...
Or should I conform to stereotype and say "G'day". I'm a wargamer from Sydney, and I am just starting to dabble in 25mm Napoleonic skirmish. (Naturally, I...

I've thought of going to the 54mm plastic figures for skirmish games, but 6mm, now that's unique. Kind of takes away the fun of doing skirmish games. What...
I have found the "Flintloque " rules work well for me , just picked up "Flintloque Reloaded " a couple of months back but have not had the chance to use them...
I don't have a set of rules and am currently writing my own based on the mechannisms used in TSATF. The reason I thought of 6mm is that it lets you do a "large...
Probably pewter, but some units could have brass. Officers were silver or gold. This web site says white metal (i.e. pewter). I wouldn't worry about it that...

Hi all, I have been looking around on the Great And Thorney issue of rules for Napoleonic Skirmish. I have seen "The Sword, the Bayonet and the Lance" rules,...
We have used the "Game with no turns", varient extensively and find it to work well for us. The premise here is to make up the unit cards witch in turn...
Many thanks! Now that my initial painting spurt is drawing to a close, we shall try this, and see how it goes! I have been basing my thoughts around British...

I enlarged some (x3) I got from Bob's Bits/Wargrid. They only make buildings up to 10 mm size. They were 6 mm so I tried to enlarge x4 = 24 mm but they came...
I just found this group and was interested in the rules posted for scrimage rules. Not many people play scrimage rules of this time. I just printed them and...
Yes the group has been very quite. We started out as a small group of wargamers in the Seattle area and used the group to plan an event for the local...
