Here's a little something to jog your memories. This is getting into the wayback machine to a game with counter graphics that surprised us all when it hit the market. Such glorious detail! Anyone remember this one?…

Today I attempted my first game of SPQR in about 2 years and for the most part I still do not know what I am doing. I have however made progress

Finally got this game punched and laid out on the table last night. The components are quite nice and thus far from what I am reading I like the mechanics.

I got really trounced in #Saratoga today playing as the Americans. I conceded by turn 9 and had already fallen behind 6 VP's to ZERO. That's right....ZERO. But now I know the system and how it works. I will be better prepared the next time. Here are some pics: …

Victory today for me at the Battle of Crecy! At last I finally won a game. Today's game was Men of Iron and we re fought the Battle of Crecy. I played the English and my gaming buddy played the French. We used the historical rules so it was an uphill fight for the French during the game. Literally as well as figuratively. I even killed King Philip of #France. Mud, rain, and overzealous knights plagued him all…

Like most issues, this new one covers both historical miniatures and board wargaming (just like in the days of old...).

There seem to be quite a few difference tactical/regimental-level Napoleonic wargames. Does anyone have experience with a broad range of these, enough to recommend one (or a series) above others?
I like the play-style of the Great Battles of the American Civil War system, and ideally I'm looking for something similar, but in the Napoleonic era.
I don't have much of a…
