Looks great. How many turns did you play and how long did it take?

I didnt count the turns, hard to keep track of when soemtimes you only get a couple of crads before Tiffin re-starts it and others you play throme Maybe 10? Gaugh the whole pack. Maybe 10? Game was won and lost in 2 1\2 hours.

Looks terrific. I really like SP for AWI, it gives a terrific game, and the unit rosters let you have unique units.

I did go big for one game and it worked surprisingly well, even though only one of the players, (me!) had even a passing acquaintance with the rules.

Nice looking game with well painted figures. Not tried SP yet. Thinking of going with R&P for FIW.

I prefer larger games for AWI. Disenchanted with BP so thinking of trying HoW.

 :-*I have to say that I have fallen in love with SP2 a little bit so its more a case of finding periuods to use that than finding rules for new periods. I do still try to make forces I can use for both SP2 and larger games.
