Field of Battle 2

Seven Years War Austrian v. Prussian

The prep took longer than anticipated, but that included a dice generate battlefield from the old Age of Reason Campaign in Bohemia book. Once we had set up and got to turning cards the game began to flow smoothly, although my opponent kept forgetting to nsubtract lost Army Points.

I've used FOB2 before, although only a couple of times. Many years ago I used to play original Piquet, which often became a tedious grind. FOB2 is a massive improvement.

This was a two player game.

this Friday night will be my first game of the year.

1. Muskets and Tomahawks
2. British v French and/or Woodlands Indians
3. I have only looked at the rules and browsed - more info after Friday!
4. Yes!
5. Me and a friend

This is a really great game and would work well in 10mm with the Pendraken ranges.

Very intuitive game that keeps you thinking due to the card driven activation system. i can see this becoming a staple diet of games for a while. It would even work solo in my opinion.

I need to rebase some old 15mm AWI I have had kicking around for years. Once thats done I will post a batrep, either of a solo game or a game at the club whichever comes first. I will try to include an overview of the game

recommended!!

Rules... Bolt action
British paras in Normandy June 1944. Versus Germans holding a town. Mission capture the bridges.... We didn't manage both... 25 foot long table by 6.
Comfy with the rules... Not really....chucking gazillions of dice and nothing much happening
Yep first time and probably the last... Well I won't be buying them.
Players 4 para and 3 German a couple of players couldn't make it due to the snow.

Sometimes I wonder - why is that frisbee geting bigger - and then it hits me!

Buy plenty of Matron's sculpts now!

If he keeps using the chainsaw, the value of his work will soon go up.
