We just added an AAR to our blog. Hope you enjoy it! We sure did.

I have the SDS rules but have not tried them yet - roughly how long did the game last (in real time)?

Nice to see something a bit different with Swedes involved  :) presumably they are converted (from Perry figs?)

Song of drums and shakos is a great game. It is advertised as being played in an hour or so. For us drinking beer, taking pictures and not being fluent on the rules it takes more like three hours however. :-)

The Swedes are indeed coverted mainly using Perry napoleonics, austians and some AWI.

Beautiful. I'm toying with the idea of starting a Retreat from moscow project using the new Perry miniatures and SDS. This has thoroughly whet my appetite for such a venture.
