Hi everybody, I'm going to release this game I wrote with a XIX century fictional Europe as a setting - Imaginations, some may say.
It's a little game that you can download at WGV (pay what you want). https://www.wargamevault.com/product/511371/Brave-Battalions-of-Sprueburg?term=sprueburg

I post a teaser here: all the rules and the mission zero.
It is a game to be played on a tiled board, 10x8 tiles large, with some terrain and miniatures on it.
I hope some of you will download it and maybe even try to play it.

Have fun,

AC

Hi there, I've finally put together a game of Brave Battalions of Sprueburg, you can see how the deployment is done by putting face down poker cards on the tiled board, some 2D terrain I've done, and some action going on. I hope you give the free rules a shot.
Bye!

Thanks for sharing.

I like the activation mechanism - an interesting approach. I’ve not got through the combat sections yet!

Hi Fred, thanks a lot. I seem to recall that activation mechanic was there in the first Confrontation fantasy skirmish miniature game, but the Command Phase, that allows you to "save" the activation of one of your units, and even make it more decisive, kind of help keeping the game less chancey. I love the lack of control in activations, be it a PIP mechanic like DBx or a "push your own luck" thing like Lion Rampant or Song of Blades, or Blucher or many others. Yet I think this combination of randomness and control that happens here in Sprueburg is kind of novel. To me at last!
