Hi, Zed! Welcome to the forum. This is probably a good topic for a blog series and I'll look into after Historicon in a few weeks. Do you mean fight 'balanced' games or collect an army? Balance through point systems has always been a bit of a mirage to me. My brother is into list building in Warhamm...

Not this year (in the US). Back in 2010, we ran BLB AND R2E games at Hisroticon, but that was quite a logistical trial.

Maybe in 2011...

Douglas, I might have an extra one... Remind me at Historicon. Again all four docs are on the blog to keep you until then...

Those are 300dpi pics on the blog (the same ones we sent to the printer in fact). Right click the image and chose 'open in new tab' (or window, depending on your OS) for the full resolution image. In that new tab, right click the image and choose 'save image'...

I think the main thing to have a handle on as a player are the way orders work, movement, and formations. Getting caught in the wrong formation or blundering about with inappropriate orders is the quickest way to getting a battalion mauled. Knowing shooting and close combat mods might help determine...

Should be two... BLB2 is out of production now and if you are missing one, I don't know if we have any left. They are posted on the blog...

We will be using BLB2. Good thing Barry will be there because I'm liable to just ask you to throw a bunch a of dice and judge the results by the number of 1's and 6's that turn up (kidding... well, sort of... by all means, take a look at them - SOMEONE should know the rules)! Hmm... maybe I better l...

Thanks, guys!

Thanks for the kind words... Lots of plans to continue the series going forward...

Looks a grim situation for the red coats, but a great looking game!

Ha, Barry! See what we started?

Some sources DO list them there, but I certainly won't argue with the Scots Guard! I'll let Mr. Hilton wade into this...

Thanks for the kind words...

The League of Augsburg and Quindia Studios are very proud to present The Wargamer's Guide to Uniforms of the Battle of the Boyne . These are just the first of many and they are available in the shop now. You can download a free sample for The Battle of Penny Burn Mill (actually from the second plann...

Ok, this worked once before when my Google-Fu failed to turn up good maps of Limerick so I thought I'd try again... Captain Francis Neville drew a map entitled 'A Survey of the City of Londonderry as it was Beseiged by the Irish Army An:1689' There is a portion of the map seen [url =http://www.cregg...

Online registration is now open for Historicon 2016. As loyal readers of our blog know, Barry and I will be running a BLB game many times over the course of the event... Commander of Sallies: The Battle of Pennyburn Mill Thursday 1300-1700 Friday 0800-1200 Friday 1400-1800 Saturday 0800-1200 Saturda...

Yes, characters may be attached to artillery in the same manner as any other unit, but remember that the inclusion of artillery is an optional rule so make sure your opponent agrees with its inclusion...
