I KNOW i MUST REALLY SOUND LIKE A BROKEN RECORD AND FOR THAT i APOLOGIZE. :roll:

The book is finished. We are proof reading and correcting. We delayed a little because we had a debate about including Army lists. After due consideration and advice we decided.. no! pdf will cover that but there will be a sample army builder included. Clarence is on the last 20 pages of corrections.

It's coming....

Barry,

You take your time. When it comes to publishing, there's nothing worse than premature ejaculation.

Barry will be able to confirm or not if the rules will be printed by then but I can confirm that Barry and myself are doing part of our Borodino game as our display.
Cheers

Dear All,

even as I write this mail (cohomping my meusli) I am downloading the FINALFINAL HIRes file from Clarence. When I OK this it goes to the printer.

It is then dependent on two things:

1. Speed of turnaround form hte printer
2. delivery by road to EK.

This means I MAY have copies available to deliver at Carronade, it not it will be the following week, Unfortunately the game for Carronade is Borodino by BLB will appear at Claymore as a game together with the new WARFARE line of figures...


Let's see what happens now!


cheers

B

Barry,
Sounds good. Our group here in Tucson, AZ just played the "Crossing the Shannon 1691" scenario a few days ago w/BLB2...always great fun. Will be satisfying to see the final product.


Keep up the great work!!!
