It also shows what a great game you can have without needing a 6 x 4 foot table
I am going to build a wargames army, a big beautiful wargames army, and Mexico is going to pay for it.

Great set of rules, I love 'em for a Napoleonic skirmish. At the moment I've got Harpe and Sharper, Obadiah Hakeswill, Sweet William and that snake in the grass Ducos on the stocks. When they're done all the cast will be marching to the sound of has.been's drum... and bugle!

An original scenario and comprehensive AAR!
I like the ruleset mechanism!
You must have had a very enjoyable game!
Cheers!

Thanks for all the nice comments. It has made me seriously think about typing out the rules here on LAF,
perhaps after Hammerhead.

Over the years I have come to the opinion that it is not the rules, but the people you play against, that make
this hobby such fun for me. Guys, you know who you are.

Played these rules several times with Pete, and always ended up wondering who’s up and who’s down ?
Great rules for a small skirmish for a couple of hours.
