Pickett's Charge, the rules (definitely the rules!)
« on: 31 December 2016, 07:24:14 PM »
As new member/contributer to this illustrious forum I would like to point you in the direction of my in depth die roll by die roll run through of a game of the new Pickett's Charge rules by David Brown.
Now first a warning, this is a long post on my blog, it would be far too long to put up on here as I thought that I would like to give interested people an in depth look at the mechanics of an ACW game using these rules so it ain't for the faint hearted! It should give those interested in buying this set an idea of how they play before they purchase.
However if you do just want some pretty pictures then by all means have a look as well. Here are a few to get started:









The full write up with a blow by blow run through of hoe the rules play can be found here:

To sum up for those who don't want to delve in, absolutley marvolous, best set I have played for the period at this level. Basically they just feel right.
Hope you enjoy,
Dave.

Thanks for the detailed run through ... I need to read it closer.  Love the title as well ... battle reports and rules of the same name can get confusing!  lol o_o
