Hi Guys, I have just added a War of the Austrian Succession scenario into the scenario competition folder in files. Chotusitz. UK Mark, Dr. Ken and Peter J. -...
In thinking about the scenario, I don't think that the French player should be permitted to buy down impetus until he's up to rolling a D12 against the Spanish...
Hi, Fought Chotusitz last night. It turned out to be an outright Austrian victory. The game saw some of the more bizzarre PK moments. It started with an...
Hi, The Ilkley Lads will be going to the York show on Sunday. We will be playing CHOTUSITZ 1742 in a PK styley. There will only be two (possibly three) of us...

Deadline for scenario submissions is Feb. 12. At that time, we'll close it down for new entries and open a poll for voting for 1st and 2nd place. There are...
Hi, The Austrians won again!!! This time the result was much closer but with a hefty whack of morale chips and initiative the Austrians outfought the Prussians...
... Ah, James, but they're landsknechts! That's about 1.5 per month. Darned fancy dan suits! US Mark -- _______________________________________________ Search...
Hi, I was misinformed. I believed that entry was free this year. Oh well, they did very well to get 1300 people then. Not only did we get in free (due to demo...
... Darned fancy dan suits! ... I've already done about 100 Landsknechts so only another 120 to do. The rest, except Gendarmes, are easy - well no harder than...
We're just beginning a FPW campaign; titled "As Circumstances Allow". I've created a point to point map covering the region roughly from Paris to Mainz. The...

For the Prussians, Terry Shockey is the overall commander, with the other Prussian players being "the Gregs" - Cornell, Rold, and Skelly. The French have Chris...
I'd be really interested in the map too. When you get it finished, would you please put it in the files section? I'll be interested to see how the point to...
I've created a file in the files section (good place to put a file!) titled "As Circumstances Allow". I'll capture pertinent documents and updates there....
I still have the book (somewhere). On reflection I believe it replaced the randomness of dice for the randomness of measurement as precise range determination...
There was also a commercial set, called "The Complete Brigadier" around in the early to mid 80s that was diceless, just ran through multiple decimal modifiers...
Thanks Brent, the map looks intriguing. Are all of the lines between cities single infantry move in open cards? Or, what are the terrain classifications of...
I was going to mention "The Complete Brigadier" as well. It was an OK game, but it had three problems which led me eventually to move on. For one, the lack of...
Quite a few years ago there was a game based on the Austro-Prussian War of 1866. I can't remember the main game's names but its expansion was called 'Fire on...
Armies can move 1 or 2 areas, depending on a random die roll, weighted based on the army's CiC. The terrain is generally moderately closed in the red and blue...
Hi Everyone, Earlier this week a new Pker came into the Mark Dudley household. A boy (as yet unamed) weighing 8lbs 10oz (?). Both mother and baby are doing...
You might want to take a look at "Bonaparte at Marengo", a board game put out by Simmons Games. At their website (www.simmonsgames.com) they provide a lot of...
I'm sure the new little Dudley will reciprocate by having Mark up at 2 AM performing some live action diaper (nappy) changing. Congratulations UK Mark and...
Congratulations, Mark. No doubt junior has already mastered the manouvre sur les derrieres, with special emphasis on biological warfare and poison gas:-) ... ...
