Excellent news, and some I shall spread to the adoring fans who've playtested it with me!

Congrats, Frank, wholeheartedly.

I know you went to great lengths writing these rules, and you were certainly way too tough on yourself while finding the 'right' shape. So it's good to know that finally someone's willing to honour your hard work and adopt the rules for publication.
Even judged by early drafts (sorry for being such an awfully lazy playtester…) they were highly enjoyable, and there's a lot of potential.

Hope they will run well for you and your publisher. Well deserved.

Great news ! ...but I can't really tell that I'm surprised.

Now, as Dr. De'Ath said :

Best news I read all week! Congrats and well done Frank.

Thank you everyone for all the kind words.

Without the support and assistance of all the quality folk here on the Lead Adventure Forum, I fear none of this would ever have been possible. I will remain eternally grateful for everyone who has ever read this post and commented in it, or dropped me a pm here, or on my blog, with words of encouragement; let alone those who actually play-tested the rules for me (with copious amounts of cardboard chits and empty ink cartridges), suggesting changes and improvements to help better game play.

In particular I must thank Dr Mathias again, for without his wonderful artwork, BotS would never have gathered as much interest as it has. At this time the good Dr's art will make an appearance in the final product, with the good news being that hopefully he will gain a commission for some more stuff in the near future.

There are others who deserve a personal mention as well, but I think it best that I contact them in private.

The publisher has some nice things planned for BotS and we still don't know what the final product will consist of exactly. Be assured that the game will remain true to my original concept, but will be presented in a much more polished and playable format.

Again thanks LAF.

Well done Frank! Awesome news, and duly deserved

The one time I playtested this a for a few games I was blown away by how deeply interesting you managed to make a single combat game! I would love a fantasy themed spin-off as well.

Awesome! I actually had an arena built specifically with the goal of playing this game, so I'm glad it's coming out

Please tell me that it's going to remain a miniatures game, and please tell me the scale is going to remain at 28mm!

Again thanks gents.

It will certainly remain a miniatures game, but we are not entirely sure yet how complete the game components will be. There are discussions about providing miniatures and everything else required to play, in a board game type setup. Of course there will be nothing stopping us war gamers from being able to use our own toys and terrain, of the scale we choose.

That is great news! I've been envious of everyone who has been play testing the rules. Now I get a chance to throw my hat into the ring! Any idea of a time frame why they might be out?

Justin
