Title: Siege Warfare Rules 1688-1820
Post by: Leapsnbounds on November 29, 2014, 01:11:36 AM

 Does anyone know of a tactical rules set for Siege Warfare in this period.  I remember a set appearing in  an issue of the "Armchair General" in the Sevenites.  I am looking to use a Vauban Style Fort I acquired years back and would like to sue the Grand Battery, saps, lines of contravallation and all the good stuff of grand Sieges.  Thank you for your help.
