I thought some people might enjoy these stories of wargaming from working at Osprey over a decade ago, as well as my first attempt at writing a set of wargaming rules...

Interesting insight! But your foray in promoting wargaming bears fruits.  :D

The rules, albeit unfinished, seem interesting. I might even try them out!

Cheers,

Fenton

I've actually been interested in a skirmish napoleonics game myself that isnt just "Use skirmish troops". This Alt History game sounds ideal. Though I may make some modifications to add horses (make them super expensive) and of course this kind of game sounds right for a certain Yorkshire accented Rifleman and his Irish best friend.
