These rules were released a short while ago and promise a fast play Brigade - Corps level game and reflect the tactics etc of the ACW.
I bought my copy through Amazon and whilst my current preferred set of rules are Bonnie Blue Flag being a typical wargamer how could I not resist trying a shiny new set.
So I’m keen to try these and have decided to revert to my favoured scenario for rules testing. Heth’s attack on the first day of Gettysburg.
The terrain is set, the troops will March into position tomorrow and battle will commence.
I will discuss the rule principles and how they play as I report on the refight.
As an aside the Author Arthur van der Ster has a face book page dedicated to the rules where he is very forthcoming in discussing the rules, why he chose some of the mechanisms he has used etc. I have found it very useful.
So more to come shortly….
