Hi Mau. It should be with us next Friday. I'll put an announcement on the group and the web site. Cheers Richard demauriac <moltke@...> wrote: So when can...
Sorry about the should be with us next Friday comment, I was talking about IABSM - force of habit I fear. I haven't seen the Doc for a few weeks so am not...
The content is all finished, but I've been discussing the format with Nick. The old one was a little spartan, and as I've tried to add in more examples, I...
It would be good to have a full example of a complete combat including all arms etc. In the old Koenig Krieg (7YW) rules there was something like this and was ...
Maurizio Agreed. I had those rules, but have somehow lost the damn things. I enjoyed reading them but never got around to playing a game (or even buying the...
Yes, agreed. The original plan was to have something like they used to have in the old Airifx guides- I remember reading and re-reading the ECW, ACW and...
Hi all, Vincent's Bailen scenario is now available from the "Free Stuff" section- thanks Vincent. I've also corrected the known bugs, and am beginning to get a...
Hi all, I've added two 1805 scenarios to the web site: Haslach-Jungingen and Elchingen. Both are "unbalanced" games in terms of numbers, but both were won by...
Hi all, well, we seem to be getting a fair number of people on the list, even though we haven't had an official launch :-) As we've several of the more...
Haven't played much in years because I haven't found any rules I like. Played Empire back in the 70s and 80s. I also would play Empire, but prefered Empire...
Greetings from Helsinki! I purchased both IABSM and LFS from the "Finnish Connection" last year, but have been wrapped up in a long Zulu War campaign, and so...
Hi jms, we also tried Eagles over the Empire. It seemed full of good ideas, but somehow didn't gell very well. Come to think of it, we also tried Republique...
Hi Christopher, I seem to have missed Napoleonic command- are they still in print? Sorry to have coaxed you back :-) It's strange, I thought that writing and...
You asked about division size games and the only ones I've seen are "One Day Napoleonics Campaign Rules" 3 one inch base + 3-4000 infantry. One inch = 200...
West Ruslip to Hyde Park Corner every day. Then walk to near the US Emb. You asked about divisional games and the only one I know is called "One day...
Hi Daz, They were published as a small press affair by the author (Jeff Knudsen), and sold at conventions in the States - I'm not sure where else. I've just ...
First of all what happened to LFS v.2? Our club has tried V&B (I liked it, not the others unfortunately), Grande Armee -too many die rolls and "rubber band...
Hi Maurizio, I agree on the the relative merits of V&B, GA, and AoE. I think V&B has the better combat system (esp. with the second edition rules) but GA has...
He's a Newbury Rules Man at ... haha good one, we played a lot out of them in the 70ies and early 80ies ... actually be ... That would be good news, and I...
... Yes, yes, I do sound like a broken record, but it is so nearly here! I have been distracted by preparing our demo wargame at the Napoleonic fair this...
Hi all, we put on a demo game at the International Napoleonic Fair yesterday (followed by lots of beer and the largest curry you have seen!!). We refought the...
Maurizio, Thank you for introducing me to the kriegspiel web site! An excellent resource. A like the approach to army level combat, emphasizing the ...
It was certainly a very enjoyable day - and an excellent curry, unlike last years post game beer & curry I did not try to keep up with Rich on the beers so I...
Ha, I've been rumbled :-) There's a lot of kreigspeil influence on LFS, particularly the von Reisswitz versions (which are an amazing read, and a great lesson ...
Makes perfect sense to me. I remembered to hunt down Jeff Knudsen, by the way, author of Napoleonic Command. He says he has copies left, and is also mailing...
Just curious - do people use "generic-sized" battalions and regiments, or cater to specific OB's? Both depending on the game? I started out using very...
