We tried them and like them a lot. Not having ECW minis we made a couple minor adjustments (no pikes & no ammo rules) and used my 1680's minis. Worked like a charm. https://antonswargame.blogspot.com/2024/11/a-first-try-of-never-mind-matchlocks.html

Good review! Much appreciated.
Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo

We gave the rules a try last week, with two ECW forces.
I very much liked the card and activation system, and also the morale system (although it can be very random).
Not so keen on the shooting and melee systems; seemed awfully fiddly, and dragoons seemed too effective.
So, not bad, but I don't think I'd use the rules again without some tweaks.
