...go medieval on Donnybrook...
« on: 19 February 2014, 09:40:17 AM »
The other day I told my friend Sören that I would go medieval on Donnybrook...or with Donnybook I suppose are better expressed. As you know I can´t help trying to adopt all wargaming rules to my favorite period, The Kamlar Union War i.e. Swedish civil war during the 15th century...so now the Donnybrook rules have meet the same fate...in my search for the wargaming worlds holy grale, the perfect rules set for my specific period;)



As I realy liked our first games using the Donnybrook rules for our Scanian War project and the rules are very easy to adopt to other settings and I like the use of "Characters" to add periodic flavour to the game and bonuses to unit or fraction... so I decided to have a go for a medieval variation of the Donnybrook rules...

You can read a bit more about it at my blog, hope to have the first AAR up in a day or so...

Best regards Michael

I heard it that way too!
"Some scientists say that humans exhibit a behavior called neophilia, which is a preference for new objects. It’s why we like shiny new things."

Great idea, I just have received the ruleset and it is great.
I am very interested about how have you applied the new rules for this new period.

Tell me more please!
