1. Ronin

2. Two standard Samurai Buntai

3. Took a little unravelling initially. We had a good game, but I have since reread and realised we did combat all wrong.

4. This was indeed a first playing.

5. Two of us played with my opponent bringing everything round except the dice. We used a very attractive battlement from Tiny Terrain and 28mm Perry Figures, painted by my opponent. He won.

4 games of MeG.
Scored 17/60 and was firmly in last place, but I did use 10mm figures!

Biggles Rolls a 6, SPAD XIII vs Fokker Dr I, becoming familiar with them, and I got blasted out of the sky again. Wife is now a lieutenant and a holder of the Noble Order of the Black Eagle.

Guess it's my turn to start this thread!
The traditional questions:

1) What ruleset do you use in your last game? -FIRE AND FURIA FRANCESE (Fire and Fury mods by Wyre Forest Wargames).
2) What armies were confronted? -1870 French and Prussian
3) Did you feel comfortable with the ruleset? - Yes very
4) and... was this the first time you used this ruleset? - No
5) How many players were in the game? - 2

A very close fought game, with the Prussians on the verge of breaking through the French defence when casualties forced them to give up. A French victory by a whisker.

Hi

2) What armies were confronted? - Romans v Gauls
3) Did you feel comfortable with the ruleset? - Pretty much
4) and... was this the first time you used this ruleset? - Yes and no. My second game introducing the rules to two friends who have not played them before

Good game. The rules seem remarkably crisp and easy to understand even for new people to the rules.

Pixie's right. Home-brew. Copy on request, though they're a bit seat of the pants.

I gave up on fiddling with WW1 airplane rules when Wings of War came out. They're just brilliant, and it's such an easy game. I'll get the one plane, I said, o-ho-ho!

1. What ruleset did you use in your last game?  Black Powder
2. What forces were involved?  French v Prussian in 1792
3. Did you feel comfortable with the rule set ? Yes.
4. and...was this the first time you used this rule set? No, but had not used them for some time.
5. How many players? 2

This was the first in a series of test games to establish if Black Powder could be used for
the French Revolution. The forces consisted of:

French - 6 battalions 'Les Bleus', 3 battalions 'Les Blancs', 4 companies Chasseurs-a-Pied, 4 Squadrons
Chasseurs-a-Cheval and a 8pdr battery.

Prussians - 8 battalions of line, 2 battalion guns, 4 squadrons Dragoons and a 6pdr battery.

The French held a village and surroundings and the Prussians attacked. All French except the battery
were were randomised in terms of their ability using the 'Toolbox' features of the rules. The Prussians
all had predetermined ability. The outcome of the game was as expected with the French soundly beaten.

The next game will reverse the position, with smaller Prussian forces defending the village against
numerically superior French. This will be to determine if numbers can offset their randomised abilities.
From there, I will move on to 1793, 1794, etc. with French abilities being progressively improved.

And hopefully going on to 1806 when the Prussian command is at its worst!
