By Fire & Sword 3vs3 regiments AAR

[Anatoli]

This weekend me and Thomas played By Fire & Sword again. By that time I had already painted up all the 17th century Wargamer terrain and I was eager to play with it on the battlefield, indeed it made things look really good.

We decided to play a relatively small battle, 3 vs 3 regiments and no divisional support. The reason for this was to flex our brains and keep track of additional rules which we had not been using until now, such as the rules for limited ammunition (which I think are a must, as they enhance the experience greatly).

I'm still having a steep learning curve on how to play the Polish-Lithuanian army I own in a proper way. I received a lot of valuable tips over at the By Fire & Sword forum after my battle which I'm very keen on trying out next time I play this game. I also formed a few new ideas of my own which I also want to experiment with.

I have an immense love for this game, too bad Thomas is going away for a couple of few weeks or I would have forced a rematch this or the next weekend (I also wrote some quick reference unit cards for us to use next time with all the stats, weapons and ranges, special rules and unit abilities). Anyway, check the full report and some 50 pictures from our latest battle over at my blog here:

Lovely! I'd be careful though, with these losses mounting up, the other Polish nobles will soon see fit to usurp you!

Can't wait for the English version of this!
