Re: What shall we play on Saturday?
Ancients maybe? Did I recall that you guys use Tactica rules? My 15s are all based for DBM/MoA.
Pretty sure I'll be available Saturday. Ed

I don't mind running a game. It sounds
like it will be a small one anyway so I may get to push some troops.

Colonials? I can pull the troops. Are you going to run the game? How about British vs Germans in a fictitious fight over a strategic valley in West Africa? Game Name: "Pith Helmets and Pickelhaubes" ===========================================================

Conflagration
The Tin Dictator <TinDictator@...>
This is a reminder that the new convention "Conflagration" will be coming up on the 22nd - 24th. The con will be at the Tempe Mission Palms Hotel in downtown Tempe. After looking through the game listings, I don't think I'll be going. Not really my cup of tea.
I was going to run a couple miniatures games but they didn't seem very interested. So....... screw it. Here's the link www.conflagration.org for those of you who might be interested in checking it out.

What shall we play on Saturday? Does anyone else want to run a game? And how many of you think you'll be able to make it?

Re: Next Saturday's game will be Napoleonics

Sorry, I'm out of town this weekend and won't make the conflict. Dave.

Next Saturday's game will be Napoleonics.
An epic struggle of monumental proportions. A no-holds-barred brawl that will become the stuff of legends told for generations. The fate of Europe.... nay the world, may well be in play.
Those who miss this battle will be forever branded as cowards and should well hold their (wo)manhood cheap and lower their eyes when ever one who battles here walks by.
Snail eating frogs vs the sausage eating, big nosed remnants of the Holy Roman Empire. (French vs Austrians for those of you educated in public schools)
... we aim to be equally offensive to all. Lest we be branded as prejudiced.
Game starts at noon.
All welcome.
Call, write, or whistle for directions if needed.
We don't want to run out of beer.
So, As always, RSVP's are appreciated.

Re: Napoleon at War rules
The Tin Dictator <TinDictator@...>
Don, The quick play version, "Borodino Quick Play" did work pretty well. We made a few notes and will be having another go at it this Saturday. I think its going to turn out to be a pretty good big-battle rule system.

The basing reminds me of Lasalle. Did the "quick" version of Imp. Lanc. work OK?

Re: Napoleon at War rules
The Tin Dictator <TinDictator@...>
There's not really a figure/man scale, per se. Each Infantry Batallion has 6 bases. Cav have 4 bases. Gun batteries are represented by a gun base for every two guns in a battery. So, typically French have 4 bases = 8 guns, Russians have 6 bases = 12 guns, etc.
But, when limbered the battery is only represented by one limber base. So its easier to lose the whole battery if it gets shot. Losses are in bases, not figures. The number of figures on a base is irrelevant. Kind of like Fire and Fury.
Musket range = 6" Max heavy arty range = 24" (Canister = 6") Movement = 6" for infantry (4" in line) Cav moves 12" Arty moves 8"
==============================================================
